ALASKA
TO
SIBERIA
VAST RAILROAD PROJECT
IS CONTEMPLATED.
Actual Survey of a Lino From Alaska
to SilKt-la Huh Hern Made In Alaska
Predicted by Railroad Men That
PusMMigerH Muy Travel From Pcii
riU'ton to St. Petersburg by Rail In
a Few Years.
The dream of a railroad connect
ing Alaska and Siberia by way of a
tunnel under Behrlng sea, has stirred
In the breasts of adventurers for
years, but it remains for Captain John
J. Healcy, a civil engineer of Dawson
City, to make a report upon the feas
ibility of such a vast project.
Recently a survey has actually been
made on a portion of this line and a
dispatch from Dawson says of the re
turn of Captain Healy to that city,
after a trip over the route In western
Auaska:
"Captain John J. Healy has Just re
turned from a surveying trip across
the border for the Trans-Alaska-Siberian
railway line after one of the
hardest trips he has ever experienced.
He reports the proposed line feasible
to the Tanana divide. Healy Is 70
years old, but he made the trip which
lasted over 60 days without a stop.
The weather was bitter cold, the ther
mometer at times reaching 60 degrees
below zero."
With the construction of the Tan-ana-Falrbankg
line and the extension
of other lines of railroad along the
west coast of Alaska, the Alaska-Siberian
line, becomes more certalti and
competent railroad men predict that
within a 'very few years It will be
possible to travel from Pendleton to
St. Petersburg by rail, with but very
few changes of cars.

Vardamnn and Williams Out for Sen
ator. Jackson, Miss., March 13. The sen
atorial fight In Mississippi has com
menced this week in. earnest and may
be expected to continue at a lively
clip till the primaries are held in
August. The United States senators
ate to he chosen by the legislature,
which will assemble next January, but
as Senator A. J. McLaurln, one of the
Incumbents, will be returned without
opposition, the contest will be for but
one toga, that wbjch now adorns the
snouiaers or senator n. D. Money,
Senator Money could secure a re-elec
tion without trouble. It Is believed, but
his health has not been good of late
and he has consequently decided to re
tire.
Since Senator Money made his de
cision known things political In Mis
sissippi have been shaping for one of
the most exciting senatorial fights In
the history of the Btate. The rival
aspirants for the senate seat are Gov
ernor Vardaman and Represeentattve
John Sharp Williams, the minority
leader In the house. It Is Impossible
at this early stage of the contest to
predict the winner with any degree
of certainty.
Mr. Williams has returned from
Washington and from all appearances
he Intends to make the fight of his
life to succeed Money in the senate.
It Is no secret that he stands higher
with the better and more substantial
element of the people of Mississippi
than does Governor Vardaman. But
the latter has a strong "pull" with the
masses. Mr. Williams stands well
with the people on the greater Issues
of the day, but Governor Vardaman,
on the other hand, has kept closer at
home and has captured the popular
fancy by his public declarations re
agrding those questions In which the
people of Mississippi are particularly
Interested. Governor Vardaman, more
over. Is a ready sneaker and may be
counted upon to hold his own If he
accedes to Mr. Williams' request for a
Joint canvass. Whether the next sen
ator bo Williams or Vardaman, It is
already certain that the political pot
will boll at a lively rate In Mississippi
this summer. . .

Present Imnalia Reserve.
"By the president's recent procla
mation creating the Imnaha reserve
the national forests formerly known
a the Wallowa and Chesnlmnus,
have been combined. Besides the
area Included In them, approximate
ly 780,000 acres of new lands have
ber added. These lands consist of
the extremely rugged region which
constitutes the breaks of the Salmon
river canyon. The lands rise pre
cipitously from the Snake river with
an altitude of about 1000 feet to one
of 000 feet at the summit of the
range. Tlie entire area is cut up In
to canyons with very steep slopes.
Timber is found over the whole area
on the protected slopes, In the coves
and In the canyon bottoms, but the
conditions arce such that under a
proper system of management the,
forest area may be greatly extended,
What tittle agricultural land is In
cluded has already been taken up and.
settled. This Is a rugged mountain
region which will never be settled,
end It Is very advisable that It be
placed permanently under the 'gov
ernment management. (From Pin
