years. Judge States came to
Juneau from Ohio in 1884 as
United States Commissioner
and mining recorder, having
been appointed by President
Arthur. He later practiced law
in Juneau and engaged in min
ing. He is survived by a son,
who resides in California.
Ravens are killing off sheep
on the westward islands, ac
cording to Rudolph Hector, of
Unalaska.
Hector says a swarm of rav
ens will alight on the back of
a sheep and begin picking at
the animal. Those resting on
the neck stretch down and peer
into the eyes of the sheep and
frequently peck out the eyes.
Finally when the animal has
become so weakened from try
ing to rid himself of the birds,
he falls to the ground and this
marks the end for him, for the
ravens then begin to tear him
to pieces.
August Heitman, aged 75
years, one of the earliest of
Kodiak pioneers, died recently
at Kodiak. He was one of the
first employees of the Alaska
Commercial Co. in that part
of the Territory, and worked
and worked for the company
when sailing vessels took ice
from Woody Island off the j
coast of Kodiak, to San Fran-j
cisco. A wife and a family of j
21 children survive him.
Ketchikan is greatly aroused
over the activity of a dog pois
oner responsible for the deaths
of two pets owned by J. W.
Foster of Seward. A reward of
$50 has been offered for in
formation leading to arrest
and conviction of the culprit.
The territorial laws provide a
maximum penalty of three
years in the penitentiary.
The motorship Prince of
Wales, owned by the Neill
Transportation Service, mail
ship for Prince of Wales Island
which sunk in 40 fathoms of
water two miles from Warm
Chuck last November, has been
successfully raised by a sal
vage crew and beached. After
temporary repairs the ship
will be towed to Ketchikan
and reconditioned for service.
John Buttenham who went to
Dawson from Manitoba in 1898
and who has resided here con
tinuously ever since, was found
dead in his cabin recently. He
was about 65 years of age and
is survived by a widow resid
ing somewhere on the outside.
Repeal of all leasing laws re
lating to oil and coal lands and
the act of congress of 1912 re
lating to placer ground was
asked by the Commercial Club
of Ketchikan in a resolution
adopted at a recent meeting.
The resolution, previously
passed by the Cordova Cham
ber of Commerce, asked that
the Territory of Alaska again
be placed under former laws
relating to the acquisition of
public lands for mining use, un
der whiclj the western part of
the United States has been
developed.
It states that the effect of the
withdrawal of oil lands and
passage of the leasing act as
to oil and coal lands has been
to drive capital out of the ter
ritory for the reason that men
and corporations desiring to
develop such properties refuse
to do so unless title can be ob
tained, and that prospectors
for placer ground have disap
peared fro m the hills because
by reason of the act of 1912,
there is not sufficient incent
ive to warrant prospecting.
