for relief to possibly get through,
and in order not to run any
chances of No. 2 being snowed1 up,
which would necessitate her being

abatement of the storm before mak
ing an attempt at rescuing the

There is one railroad ia the Un

A Granis is president and George
P. Wiley is secretary. They prob
ably aren't known on Wall street,
but in the Big Bend country of
Washington they are regular rail
magnates.
The line is eigh.t miles long. It
was concerning this road that the
old railroad story was told—U Isn't!
as long as the Grgat Northern, but
is just as wide. The road runs
from Waterville to Douglas and
meetg all of the Great Northern
trains at Douglas. The oompany
was organized in 1909 and iaa
been paying 4 per cent regularly on
its capitalization of $80,000.

Ever since No. 1 rotary got

it has been impossible to make any

CONGRESSMAN
LAUDS ALASKA
Philadelphia, Jan. 29—Congress
man Humphrey of "Washington, in
a speech which. lie made at a ban
Que* in this city last Saturday night
paid a glowing tribute to the beau
ties Pi the trip to Alaska from a
scenic standpoint. He advised all
those who weire longing for the war
in Furope to cease that they might
spend their money in traveling over
tho European countries should turn
tfrpir steps towards Alaska as the
beauty of that country surpassed
that of all foreign lands, and was
much more accessible.
PACIFIC NAVAL BASE
The preliminary report of the
navy yard commission to President
Wilson indicates that there is to be
no abandonment of any existing
navy yard or naval station within,
the continental limits of the Unit
ed Stales. This distinguished body
of naval officers is now at Bremer
ton, engaged in a survey of the Pu
get sound station, it is the inten
'ion of the government to establish,
somewhere on this Coast, a great
naval base and shipbuilding plant.
The commission hag been usked to
make a recommendation in. this lie
half, and also to indicate jvhether o<
not an additional navy yard is need
ed on this Coast. A submarine base
is also to bo selected. Findings in
• hese matters will not be made pub
lic until the commission makes its
final report.
The commission has proceeded fcifl
enough in its inquiry to report that
the present equipment of many) yar<^
is inadequate in dry dock facilities,
berthing space, storage facilities,
machinery and other equipment. Thel
new ships for the navy to l>e com
pleted within t.he next five years
will require the enlargement of all
important navy yards in these re
spects.
Meanwhile Secretary Daniels is
going ahead with his plans for
equipping the Bremerton yard for
shipbuilding. A scout cruiser and
an ammunition ship are to be built
at the Puget sound navy yard, and
the secretary has asked for an ap
propriation. to equip, the yard for
I battleship construction.
The commission ha3 been im
pressed with the importance and the)
idaal situation of the Puget soiund
station during its stay here. The*
war department has already decided
♦hat this district is to be the
strategic base for the army's de
fensive forces, and it is likely that
the navy department p ill decide that
it is equally important as the Pacific
•naval base.—Seattle P.-I. I
