BIG PLANT
FOR KETCHIKAN
The fact that the New England Fish
company, which has, for a ooupla of
years past had in contemplation the
removal of its headquarters, together
with lis entire fishing plant, including
its Urge ocean going steamers from
Vancouver to Ketchikan, is having a
survey made preparatory to perfecting
title to a forty acre tract here, may be
accepted as the best evidence that It
hat> determined conclusively on making
the long contemplated change of bate.
The change, if trade, will make Ketch
ikan the center of a very large fishing
industry ? cne that will give regular
emplovment to several hundred men,
adding correspondingly to the lmlustri&l
and commercial activity of the place.
The company employs three large
tugs *hich number Is being added to,
and its plant here will embraoe freez
ing, cold storage and other large build
ings essential to the successful conduct
of a very large business. These ocean
going tugs will bring the fish herefrom
loog distance, and from here they will
be shipped either to foreign porta di
rect, or sent in their own staamers to
Seattle for shipment acrosa the conti
nent. It will be an industry which lo
itself will constitute the nucleus of a
much larger town thao Ketchikan now
Is.? Ketchikan Miner.

As one weak link weakens a chain, so
weak kidneys weakon th- whole body
and hasten the final breaking down.
Overwork, straios, colds and other
causes injure the kidneys, and when
their activity is lessened tho whole
body suffers from the excess cf uric
poison circulated in the blood.
Aches and pains and languor and
urniary ills come, and there i? an ever
Increasitg tendency totfrprds diabets
and fatal Brlght'a disease. Trere is no
real help for the sufferer except kid
ney help.
Doan'a K'dney Pil's act directly oa

B. A. Suttnn, of H26 Walter St., Sa
lem, Orrgon, says: "For ten or twelve
years rheumatism and kidney trouble
was the scourge of my life and two or
three times I was down on my bsck.on
account of the pain being so severe. I
could bardlv move owing to the lame
ness and had to leave my farm and come
into the city to doc or lor the trouble
bat nothing seemed to bring me more
than temporary relief. 1 was in bad
shape just before I went to a drug store
and procured Doan's Kidney Pills. My
Hmbsgwoulp scarcely support me and I
could only get around at times with the
greatest difficulty. Doan's Kidney
Pills benefited mo at once and <vhen
I had used used three boxes I was ab
