Mr. Schwarzenberg was mak

Alaska milled flour from
Fairbanks, many kinds of veg
etables from Matanuska, lamb,
beef, butter, cream, blueber
ries and salmon berries from
Kodiak, graced the board when
members of the Kodiak Live
stock Association gathered for
their first annual banquet on
the evening of December 11,
at Martin’s restaurant in Kodi
ak, according to the Seward
Gateway.
The “Alaska spread” was
preceded first by the annual
business meeting and election
of officers.
The bear question and the im
portance of getting rid of them
if the livestock industry is to
be allowed to* thrive, was a
principal theme of discussion.
The stockmen claimed they
had lost some $70,000 in the
past four years from sheep and
cattle killed by bears. They
contended that the islands are
more valuable for the livestock
industry and for homes than
as a hunting ground for big
i game hunters of the east. They
declare that there were plenty
of other places in Alaska
where the imported hunters
could find plenty of good hunt

H. J. Raymond, 57, a resident
of Alaska for 31 years, and
well known throughout south
eastern Alaska, died Christ
mas night at St. Ann’s hospital
in Juneau. Death was caused
from blood poisoning, the re
sult of a slight injury received
about ten days previous. He is
survived by his widow who
was with him when he passed
away.
United States commissioners
should receive a regular sal
ary in the opinion of the mem
bers of the grand jury which
recently was in session at Val
dez. The recommendation was
contained in the final report
of the investigators—a recom
mendation that often has been
repeated by grand jury reports
in Alaska. The payment of a
fixed salary, the report points
out, is absolutely necessary to
obtain competent men to serve
is commissioners.

eral law violations in Ketchi
kan during 1928 totaled 239,
an increase of 23 arrests over
the previous year, it was re
vealed in the annual report of
W. H. Caswell, deputy mar
shal, made public recently.

dry law topped the list of of
fenses for which arrests were
made by the marshal’s office

winter and the new machinery
fully in operation by June 1,
next, according to the Juneau
Empire.
A new 50-ton tube mill will
be erected to replace the pres
ent plant which treats about
25 tons daily. The very latest
type of compressor was also
purchased, with modern drill
equipment.
The tailings from milling op
erations of recent years will al
so be re-treated by the com
pany this year. There are 30,
000 tons of these which carry
good average values.
The Fairbanks Exploration
company’s first operating seas
on came to an end December
13, when the Cleary Creek
dredge at Chatnika closed
down. Cessation of mining op
erations was made necessary
by low temperatures after a
long period of exceptionally
mild weather which had per
mitted the Fairbanks Explorat
ion company to work its dred
ges far later than is ordinarily
possible.
After waiving a hearing in
the district court at Fairbanks
December 15, Thomas A. Mar
uam ,who was recently indicted
by a grand jury in the District
of Columbia for alleged violat
ion of the corrupt practices
act, was ordered removed to
the jurisdiction of the indicting
court, with bail fixed at $5,000.
The indictment against Mar
quam, which contains four
counts, grew out of charges re
sulting from the 1926 cam
paign for the Alaska delegate
ship.
Permission to remove the old
Russian blockhouse from Kal
makofski to Akiak, in order
that it may be restored to good
condition and preserved, has
been asked from Governor
George A. Parks by the Es
kimo inhabitants of Akiak..
The task will be no small un
dertaking as it will require
dismantling and removal of the
materials to Akiak, a distance
of 120 miles, and reconstruct
ion in its original form.
The Russian settlement of the
Kalmakofski was founded in
1832 on the north bank of the
Kuskokwim River, about 200
miles from its mouth, a stock
ade being built by a trader
named Ivan Simonson Lukeen,
and was originally known as
Lukeen’s stockade. In the same
year, Alexaneder Kolmakof, a
Russian creole, built the stock
ade which still stands. It is in
poor condition and, according
to reports will decay complete
ly in a few years more. There
are two other forts that remain
in Alaska today as landmarks
of the Russian occupation. The
original stockade at St. Mich
ael still stands in good condit
ion. That at Sitka decayed a
number of years ago but a re
production was built in 1926
and stands on a point at the
mouth of Indian River, in Sit
ka National Monument.
It is reported that 130 ounces
of platinum were brought out
from the Good News Bay dis
trict by six men working last
-eason for 50 days. This means
renewed activity along the
Kuskokwim.
The W. B. Forshay Company
of Minneapolis announced re
cently that they will build a
$350,000 steel passenger and
freight steamship for Seattle
—Southwestern Alaska service
the vessel to be operated by
the Northland Transportation
Company. The craft will be 186
feet long with a 21-foot beam,
and will have accomodations
for 56 passengers. It will be
ready for commission on Aug
ust 1, 1929.
