CH1TINA NOTES
Messers Corser and Malcolm
returned from a three day duck
hunt at Kenny Lake and vicinity
Wednesday. A bag of fifty ducks
was made by the mighty hunt
ers, who state they had the time
of their lives.
Messers Sprague and Douglas
who have been out for big game
in the vicinity of the Rapids road
house fortlie past week returned
It io reported that Thompson’s
Pass, the summit of the Valdez
trail is now impassable on acco
unt of snow that h as recently fa
len.
To open the pass last June the
A.R.C. was compelled to blast a
great deal of snow and ice from
the trail. In this way traffic was
thru earlier than usual.
The U.S. Land Office represen
tative J. A. Ramsey, of Anchor
age, is in town for a few days on
business connected with his of
fice. Frank Bingham a homestead
er 41 miles out on the trail has a
mixup on his land and a new sur
vey is compulsory. Mr. Ramsey
is also making preparations for
alloting land to the Chitina Ind
ians somewhere in this vicinity
in the near future.
Jap Decides U.S. Is
More Dangerous
Than Japan
Mauice, who is chief factotum
of one of the railway’s cook cars
and who lias lecently arrived in
this country from Japan, has a
great deal more respect for his
rolling kitchen than for the re
cent earthquake in his homeland
Ten days ago last Friday the
car jumped the track on a curve
below Chitina and jarred the
teeth loose in Mauie’s head. After
he had made the air blue for a
mile around, Mauie decided it
was all right: but Friday he lost
his faith in all intitutions foreign
and otherwise. The car again
took off thu space, and in transit
tore up 42 rails.
When Mauie and his car arri
ved in Chitina several hours later
he was still as white as his cap.
He stated that he rather take a
chance on Jap earthquake any
time in preference to the cook
car.

The Alaska Weekly
All The News Of Alaska—All The Time
One well known Alaskan writes, "You ar® to be congrat*
u la ted on the idea of the Alaska Weekly, it is just such a paper
as Alaska has long needed.”
The idea” of the Alaska Weekly could not have been suc
; cessfully carried out in any of Alaska’s cities for that would have
necessarily localized its scope.
Localized in Seattle we are in the logical place for the suc
eessful consumation of the ’’idea”-that is to gather and publish
in concise form the news of all Alaska and to work enthusiasti
cally for the good of all Alaska free from all sectional influence
or factional pressure.
If you have not yet subscribed to the Alaska Weekly DO
