Second Best in Parade
A feature of the float part of
ihe parade was the mighty fine
historical float gotten up by loyal
Yukon Pioneeis, for the men and
women who pioneered in the North
land are not wanting in partriotism
and loyalty to the glorious Stars
and Stripes.
The Alaska float rested on a
platform on a large truck. A
typical prospector’s log cabin, made
of slabs with the bark outside,
four windows, with bottles for
window’ panes, and a blanket hung
up in lieu of a wooden door, present
ed an exact replica of a frontier
man’s home. There were sluice
boxes set up, with two sourdoughs
shoveling in, while another old
pioneer operated with skill a min
er’s rocker, w’hile yet another old
timer busied with panning. A. D.
Miller, an oldtimer trailblazer was
the camp cook, and he was in
dustriously employed in building
sourdough hotcakes, as the parade
wended its way through the main
streets of the city. Miller had a
towel wrapped around his head, in
lieu of a white cap, and an apron
! made of gunny-sack cloth covered
! his trousers. He look the part of
trail camp cook. A black bear
stood at the forepart of the float.
Northern Chief A. D. Frew’ and a
committee composed of C. E. Flem
ing, Li. E. Shepard and F. E. Bond,
prepared the Pioneers’ float and
participated in the mining scenes.
The float was awarded the second
prize for the best historical float
in the entire parade.

VISIT L8CALLY
The annual Presbyterian tourist
party headed by Rev. S. Hall
Young stopped off in Petersburg
I last Saturday when the Admiral
Rogers entered port. Rev L. A.
Stevens and other friends dropped
into the Alaskan office for a
friendly chat.
Rev. Young for many years a
pioneer missionary in Alaska and
the Yukon seems never to grow
old. His hair a little whiter and
his muscles a little less willing to
| follow the dictates of his will yet
hi? mind and spirit just as active
as when we first knew him. Pio
neer missionary he had been and
a pioneer missioner will he remain
for it is in the interest of Pres
byterian work that he makes these
| annual trips to Alaska with mem
i hers and friends of that church.
May he live to bring to Alaska
many more such trippers.
Sodas satisfy. Fifteen flavors at
the Totem Pole.
H. E. Ellsworth of the Territorial
Fish Commission predicts a large
run of salmon, and silver and pink
salmon had been reported in Resur
rection Bay by the 10th of the
month.
The Seward hatchery plans to
propogate pinks this season for the
first time. Heretofore all propo
rtion efforts had been centered on
the red salmon “but the reds are
less than normal,” says a dispatch
I rum newaru.
“An auto stage line has been in
augurated to the Russian river
trout fishingdistrict, to make the
trip from Seward in six hours.
That the run of red salmon in
the Resurrection Bay district should
be less than normal is no surprise
to us. It has been our observation
that every section that has been
used to fooi the public with the
“propogating system of hatcheries”
there is less than a normal
run for after several years of that
system.
The Naha hatchery oufit put in
several miles of boardwalk, pro
bably to help the sockeye salmon
rind their way to the Naha lake
but the only evidence practical
lishermen have observed of that
I section is the complete depletion
of the sockeye salmon. Perhaps
with the auto stage now inaugurat
ed to the Russian river the pinks
will be able to make a quick trip
in and show better results for the
hatchery.
We believe in the propogation of
salmon for the saving of our big
gest industry but not with the fool,
money wasting System t^iat d>foth
Federal and Territorial funds have
been spent on.
After eight years of continuous
service the gasboat Estebeth of
Juneau dropped from the Juneau
Sitka, Juneau-Skagway mail ser
vice. Leaving about the first of
July from Juneau she inaugerated
a new Chatham Strait route be
ween Juneau and Port Alexander,
calling at all ports enroute.
Eight years of continuous opera
tion on the above routes gave this
staunch little vessel a mileage of
327,600 miles without any serious
mishap. She made 816 out of 832
scheduled trips during the entire
period. Five of those trips being -
to Sitka and eleven to Skagway.
That she did not miss more trips
to Skagway is a wonder to men in
Alaska shipping circles familiar
with the treacherous winds and
waters of Lynn Canal.
While tho inaugeration of this
new route is a loss to Petersburg
In that it was a part of the Peters
burg-Kake-Port Alexander run, still
we are just fair enough, to wish
Capt. Jim Davis the best of luek
and success in his new venture.
George Moreno of Pybus Bay,
brought his six year old son here
recently with a fractured arm for
surgical care.

FIRE ABOARD URANIA
About 3 o’clock the morning of
the 12th the Urania enroute from
Petersburg to Juneau caught fire
in her rigging by sparks from tne
exhaust, and was seriously threat

line and buckets the crew put
out the fire with the loss of their

The boat which is owned by
Capt. Dan Molvar was enroute to
Juneau for oil and supplies. Re
