NKW TVI’K OF YF.SSFI,

It i.s interesting to note that trans
jportation facilities on the Lower
[ Vuknii seem to be in process of
e-.olution. From the packets of
Mississippi River type in use when
Lawson and Fairbanks were thriv
ing camps to the smaller stern
wheelers in use until within the
past two years and now to the latest
type of passenger vessels on the
lower Yukon, the Diesel motor ves
sel. Carrying mail between St.
Michael and Holy Cross this season
finds the motor vessel “Dr. Martin”
owned and operated by the North
ern Commercial of Alaska. The Dr.
Martin is a motor vessel of US gross
tons. She is HI feet long and 12.2
f- et beam. Her passenger accom
modations resemble a small Pullman
car. the cabin being equipped with
12 Pullman berths and arranged for
the maximum of convenience and 1
o >mfort in a minimum amount of:
space. A roomy galley forward j
takes care of the inner man in a !
n ost satisfactory manner. The ves-1
sel is propelled with an SO H. P. j
full Deisel engine which drives this
si eedy little craft at a 10-mile an )
hour clip against the Yukon
and about S miles an hour shoving
a small barge. The vessel is in com
mand of Capt Win. F. Hoelscher. a
veteran lower Yukon river navi- j
While the Dr. Martin, which was j
formerly operated as a ferry boat I
across Lake Washington. Seattle, is
tin first Diesel propelled vessel on j
tl.e lower Yukon, from all rumors I
if is evident that it will not be able
to claim this distinction for many
seasons to come. At Bethel. Kus
kokwim river, there are several Dei
set vessels operating this season,
among them. the Moravian, a
staunch and speedy little craft
built by the Moravian Mission .at
Bethel last year. With the Virginia
l\ and the Donaldson demonstrat
ing the efficiency of Deisel engines '
for marine power on the Bering Sea
coast it is very evident that the j
Deisel engine has come to play Its
part in the marine, as well as the
land developments of tin* North.
Mail which left Nome for the out
side on July 6th via the Yukon,

AS THK FOI liTII VIKWS THK F1KST
Tin- Cordova Daily Times recently made referen. •• to the sendir.g
of an ambassador from Juneau to Washington, for the ostensible purpose
of securing a division of the Territory, ...o that the F.r-t would no longer
j be htrrassed by the threat of the removal of the cap \al to the west
ward. Commenting on the subject the Fairbanks N'-ws-Miner. whoso
editor. W. F. Thompson, recently returned from the Atlantic coast, says
on the subject:
“And we can tell the Cordova Times why the congressmen at Wash
ington laughed, and why the Juneau ambassador was probably glad to
get out of the national capital while there, for the writer was there at
the time. It was not that the Territory might not stand division-or de
| serve it. He was sent there by thoughtless Juneau and went there in
j nocent-like to ask Congress to pass a hill giving Alaska power which she
i already had. If that isn’t enough to cure a man of Sir Halahading; after
j a man has come out of the Tall Sticks and rushed into tli camp where the
laws are made, asking for a law to give him somethin.’ f..r his territory
which is already within that territory’s powers—•well. is to laugh
“However. !o; not the Times of Cordova be too sur Straws show
which way the wind blows. That Indian vote in the First division was
not to control who shall be national committeeman for Alaska. It was
simply a trial tor strength and the afterclap. The vote was cast and
got by Hy precedent it is "legal” and on tap all the time With
that vote. Juneau can do things to the entire territory as it pleases, in
the matter of division, redistribution, etc Really, unless th ■ Third
is intending to put in with the First, for a division of o,.. spoils; as they
an* today, it i- up to the voters of the Third to send good men to Juneau
who cannot be inveigled into splitting their strength on a play made by
the First, or someday the First, the tail of the Alaska dog. will handle
the dog as it wills.”

Cutting the Cost
of a Basic Necessity
Standard Oil Service in Alaskan ter
ritory, operating throughout eight dis
tributing stations (shown on the map)
and our two motor ships, “Standard
Service” and “Alaska Standard," is de
livering petroleum products of depend
able quality at points where they were
formerly unobtainable. Many custom
ers are installing tanks and other stor
age facilities enabling them to receive
deliveries in bulk to their own storage
at a considerable saving over the cost
of commercial transportation in drums.
The “Standard Service" and "Alaska
Standard,” built especially for the
Alaskan service, are making regular
visits to over a hundred ports of call.
The assurance of a dependable service
of petroleum products at reasonable
prices has stimulated commercial de
velopment in many lines and in many
regions.
Write our office in the Alaska Build
ing, Seattle, Washington, or the near
est Standard Oil Station (shown on the
map) for details concerning Standard
Oil Service in Alaskan territory.
