The wet heavy snow of the
past few days played havoc
with the local radio antennae,
telephone and power lines.
Telephone communication with
Premier was disrupted all day
Thursday and Friday and the
electric light service was out of
commission from shortly be
fore noion till about 8 p. m.
Friday.
A break in the running cable
on the Premier ore tramway
in Hyder B. C., Wednesday
afternoon caused a suspension
of the telephone and electric
service in Hyder for several
hours. The fractured tram
cable fell across the electric
power and telephone wires in
such a manner as to break
them down; leaving all three
out of commision.

announce that J. H. Hewitt,
John Barron, Emil Davis and
Malcolm Smith, who left here
some days ago to take em
ployment at the E. C. W. work
camps in that section are now
located at camps on Mud Bay
and Herring Bay, each of
which is about 10 miles from
Ketchikan. Messrs. Davis and
Smith are at the Mud Bay
Camp.
