Prosperity
The prosperity of any community depends very largely upon the
ooperation manifested by the many individuals and institu
tions forming the community. There can be no lasting prosper!
iy or genuine progress in the life of any community without
honest cooperation between all elements that in any way affect
the common welfare.
So It is with Alaska. No one section of this great land can
prosper for long at the expense of any other section; all construc
tive efforts must be so coordinated that but one outcome will re
sult—Cooperation; and Cooperation means Prosperitl.
It is the constant aim of The Alaska Railroad to at all timet
render such service as will best serve the citizens of the entire
Territory.

:♦ CONSERVING SALMON INDUSTRY
While there is merit in the state
ment of the Bureau of Fisher
lea that restriction of salmon fish
ing in Alaska has resulted in con
serving the supply, there art
other causes which loom in equal
importance if not in excess of the
restriction rules. Among these
! causes is the work started by Wil
1
4 liam Studdert, who two years ago,
served as special agent of the Bu
reau of Fisheries in the Cook In
let reserves. Mr. Studdert, who
^ is one of the leading fish authorities
of the country, discovered that
there were three causes of salmon
depletion—overfishing, destruction
of' fish and failure of the salmon to
reach the spawning grounds.
Coincident with enforcing the
rules against illegal fishing, Mr.
[• Studdert placed many fish-ways in
[• i streams of the west, and with pow
[♦ der. blew out rock falls and other
[♦ impediments in the streams,
r I
hi While the time is too short to
8* make a positive statement, it ap
" | pears that where the streams were
i freed of obstructions, the salmon
t* j have increased materially,
i*) Mr. Studdert’s observation was
C ! to the effect that the enforcement
|* j of the law against fish wasting, al
t£ j lowing the spawners to reach their
j£ natural spawning grounds, and net
si ting out the trout which are the
£ greatest enemy of the salmon, there
£ would be sufficient replacement
each year to make up for depletion
[♦ by capture. He predicted that
|* Cook Inlet, within five years would
have an annual pack of 3,000,000
£! cases without depleting the supply
> | As is shown in the annual report
£ j
(» of the salmon pack, the output for
[* 1926 reveals an increase of 805,
[♦I 070 over 1925.
M
ft No better work could be contin
? i
ued than Mr. Studdert’s initiative
^ in clearing streams, a thing retard
ed because of lack of appropria
tions sufficient to meet the cost.
While the abuses of overfishing
have been minimized, they cannol
be entirely eliminated until more
patrol boats are placed in western

waters.—Anchorage Daily Times.
The Bureau of Fisheries for sev
eral years have been making a great
pretense about their efforts to con
serve salmon in Alaska. The only
thing about the indusrtry they have
successfully undertaken is fooling
the law makers in Washingtn into
believing that they were actually
doing wonderful work for the coun
try. ,
There is only one way to con
serve salmon—cut down production^
The eagles may be wiped off the
face of the earth; the seals may be
used up for mocassins; the black-j
bear exterminated; the gillnetter
and the seiner sent to other climes
for the conservation of salmon. But
until the effort to grab and can ew
ry ast fish, evon to the humpback
irinus tails and fins, is stopped de
pletion will continue.
No, Messrs^ O'Malley, Hoover and
cohorts, including several “arm
chair salmon experts, putting up re
cord packs running over a million
cases is not a conservation measure
snd he who insists it is, must be
wofully blind.
GOVERNOR PARKS IN HI9
REPORT RECOMMENDS
Governor George A. Parks made
public recently his second annual
report. The report which is very
comprehensive, speaks optomistical
iy of condition of affairs through
out the Territory generally. In brief
he makes the following recommend
ations:
1. Investigation of salmon fish
eries on the Yukon and Kuskokwim
Rivers to determine whether «r not
commercial fishing may be permit
ted without jeopardizing the future
supply.
2. Enactment of a law author
izing the Secretary of the Interior
to lease public domain for grazing
purpses.
‘I. Repeal of tax provisions of
the Alaska Game Law insofar as
they affect the residents of the Ter
ritory.
4. Provision should be made for
a Government Hospital for the in
sane of Alaska.
E. Detention home for incorrig
ible Natives in the Territory.
I 6. Industrial school, hospital
and isolation ward for tubercular
! natives, at Tanana.
7. Wireless station at Kotlik for
the season of navigation and trans
fer of station to Unalakleet during
the winter months.
8. Repeal of law restricting the
number of placer claims that may
be located by individuals.
9. Federal Constabulary combin
ing all law enforcement agencies.
1 10. Continuation of aerial map
ping until the forested coastal re
gions of the Territory have been
photographed.
ALIEN VIOLATING LAW
DENIED CITIZENSHIP
In the matter of the petition of
.iOrgen Koetad, for rehearing and
reinstatement of petition for na
turalization in the Supreme Court
ruled that citizenship was denied
to an alien because he had been
convicted of violating a fishing law
within five years, as the Court de
clared that Section 4352, subsection
4„ Comp. Stat., 1918, rests the
burden on the applicant toshow that
he has been well disposed to the
good order and happiness of the
United States during the five-year
period, and in violating a fishing
law he was not so disposed as a fact
misdemeanor though it be.
Says the Court, "It shall be made
to appear to the satisfaction of the
Court admitting any alien to citi
zenship that immediately preced
ing the date of his applicatin he
has resided continuusly within the
United States five years at least,
and within the State or Territory
where such Court is at the time
be has behaved as a man of good
moral character, attached to the
principles of the Constitution of the
United States, and well disposed to
the good order and happiness of
the same.*'
