O’REILLY LOYAL
It isn’t everyone who would refuse
a position carrying the honored title of
major just because the position would
take him away from Anchorage and
Alaska. But this is just what Jas. E.
O’Reilly did by wire this morning. Mr.
O’Reilly received a cable from his old
friend, A. E. Griffith, yesterday, of
fering him the position of superinten
dent of construction, with the title of
major, in the railroad contingent that
leaves the United States this month
for France. Mr. Griffin is one of the
most prominent railroad contractors
in the northwest, and will take a com
petent force of railroad builders, con
sisting of engineers and construction
men, to re-construct the government
railroads of France that have been
wrecked during the present European
war. This is the third railway bat
talion to leave this country on similar
errands and the positions command
splendid salaries, in addition to the
members of the party having the
great opportunity of seeing the de
vastations of the war and the country
at first hand. Mr. O’Reilly says he
naturally would enjoy the experience,
but that' Anchorage is good enough
for him.
