Prosperity
The proeperity of any community depends rery largely upon the
^operation manifested by the many individuals and iastitu
in>n3 forming the community. 'I here can be no lasting prosperl
ff or genuine progress in the Hie of any community without
honest cooperation between all elements that in any way affect
the common welfare.
So It Is with Aleaha. No one section of this great land can
prosper for long at the expanse of any other section; all eonstrne*
▼e efforts must he so coordinated that but one outcome will re
sult—Cooperation; and Cooperation means Prosperity
It Is the constant aim of The Alaska Railroad to at all times
reader each service as will bhst serve the citizens ef the entire
Terrttery.

Coast States. It does pay to be a
legislator, if one’s conscience is a>
thick as the skin of a walrus.
The keynote of the next campaign
has been sounded. No longer cau
the issue be smudged over with
issues of hate and racial color.
“We gave them a darn good scare
this time,” said a fisherman, “and
i we’ll give them a darn good drub
bing the next.”
The defeat in the Legislature
of the major issues of the last elec
tion is simply the postponement jo!
those matters. After Vox PopWll
has made known its demands in 10
uncertain terms even the Tamma y
Hall of Alaska must bow its heac

WThen some of those ‘progress
ive legislators get home, and their
records read, they will have a de'l
of a time showing their progress
iveness. It travels like a crab with
them. But what’s a little election
pledge to near defunct legislators?
. SWAMPS FOR HATCHERIES .
It is repeated that Washington
farmers are making their back-pas
ture swamps and marshes pay by
converting them into fish farm-.
The commercial demand >or fi-ih
has made this new Washington in
dustry possible.
Such being the case, we mighi
suggest that the Junean Emp!»e
get back of this proposition for :l.e
benefit of Petersburg with its s«t
eral miles of swamp lands. A t
thac it would not be any gre*:e»
waste of tax money than the hatch
ery at Cordova which had a poi
chant for “losing” its fry.
STORAGE BUILDING .CONTRACT
LET TO SEATTLE CONCERV
The construction of the new co i
storage at Juneau has been let to
the A* W. Quist Company of Seattle
Its a report made by Wallis S. George
president of the Juneau cold storage
company. Construction work w
begin very shortly. It is said the in
vestment will approximate $200,000.
While the A. W .Quist is register
ed as a Seattle Cmpany, its head
Mr. Quist is in fact an old Alaska i
with headquarters In Ketchikan.
SEAL COMING NORTH
The Seal, Alaska Game Com*
mission’s tender enroute north re
turned to Bellingham after enter
ing Seymour Narrows. Mr. Terhune
who has been appointed in place of
| Mr. Walker transferred to th9
Washington office, took sick. How
ever it is expected that the boat
will resume its journey in a few
days as the case is not of a very
serious nature.
It will stop at Kasaan where it
i will pick up a consignment of live
beaver for the Commission. The
animals are to be placed on Baran
off Island under the provisions of
the Territorial game stocking law.
JUNEAU BOAT EXPLODES
AND SINKS
The gas boat Jennie, halibuter
working out of Juneau, caught fire
causing an explosion of the gas
tanks and sinking the boat in a very
short time. The owner, Capt.
Envald Warner owner and Ole Pe
terson were aboard when the ex
plosion occurred and jumped
aboard the Louhelen standing near
by. The explosion was caused by
the striking of a match shortly after
taking on oil. Boats near by were
scorched by fire before they were
able to get out of the danger zone.
The Juneau fire Department with
hose and chemicals were able to
get the burning oil on the water
under control.
BACKING FOR OIL WELLS
The Anchorage Times reports that
Capt. Ivan L. Peterson, president
of the Peterson Oil Company re
turned recently from California with
unlimited backing to continue his
drilling operations In ther Chicka
loon oil fields. He expects to drive
his drills to oil bearing strata be
fore discontinueing his operations

i From an analysis made by the
j Alaska School of mines it is said
that the porduct found on the Stern
larm is composed entirely of cal
cium carbonate and may be classed
as chalk or marl. It is suitable for
kalsomines and for the making of
Portland cement, and is also ex
cellent for dressig soil.
KEHOE OF FAIRBANKS LUCKY
MAN ICE BREAKUP
Edward Kehoe, garbage contract
or of Fairbanks cannot now be
made to believe that Friday the
13th is a hoodoo day for he was the
iucky man in the Ice Breakup Pool
at Nenana. He gets by his lucky
guess approximately $35,000.
Mr. Kehoe held the ticket for the
exact time of the breakup—6:42
morning of the 13th. He is a wid
ower with five children, one of whom
is said to be in the hospital. Alas
kans generally are especially satis
fied that this small fortune shall be
won by Kehoe at such an opportune
time.
