SKAGWAY i
Ira W. Kin?, the new agent of the
Alaska Steamship company at Haines,
was up yesterday. Mr. King is an affa
ble gentleman and w 111 certainly get
along nicely at Hames. So says the
Skagwav Alaskan, to which the Miner
would like to add that if he doesn't get
aiong nicely at Haines, the people of
that town will prove themselves a bard
lot to please.
A Skagway man has gone on a vaca
tion trip to Kansas, taking with him a
sixteen pound c*.bbage grown in his
Skagway garden, with which to dis
abuse the idea of Kansas farmers that
nothing can be grown in Alaska, says
The Alaskan. That Skagway man
should havo thrown home pride aside
long enough to sr >p ia Ketchikan and
get a cabbattc that would outweigh his
Skagway sample to the extent of half a
dozen pounds or more.
