Transcript	is going up - things are doing here. Fairbanks is just now a typical boom western mining camp. June 4th Just paid lumber bill for my house $313.81 Recd my March salary - Roberts, the freighter from Chena, came to me today to lease my lot, cor Cushman St.. - for his use in running a store for the N.A.T. Co! Think of Hendricks & Belt, the Chena boom =ers, being forced to come to Fairbanks! This is the result of everybody's coming on here - and refusing to stop there. They are, however, trying to force Roberts into making another blunder for them by going across to East Fairbanks! They made one blunder in moving to Chena last spring and their removal to "Graehl" or East Fairbanks would be just as bad another.
