Former Alaskan
With American
Legion at Front
(Fairbanks News-Miner)
Word has been received in Fair
banks that Alex Rasmussen, former
ly of the interior of Alaska, is now at
the front in France, a captain of a
troop of Americans that is fighting
for the allies. He raised a company
of Americans in Toronto, the organi
zation becoming a member of the
American legion which went to France
during the early part of May.
According to one New York paper,
the outbreak of the war found Ras
mussen “mining in interior Alaska
and north of the Arctic circle.” Anx
ious to be at the front, however, he
threw up his work and started east,
where he got his commission.
Rasmussen is a soldier of fortune
and during his life has served under
three flags. First he was a member
of the Fourth United States cavalry.
Later he was with Obregon in Mexi
co, serving as a lieutenant, and now he
is a captain under the British flag.
Captain Alexander Rasmussen,
president of the officers’ mess in the
Ninety-seventh, had a Danish father
who fought Germany and Austria in
the European war of 1864. His moth
er was French and her people fought
Germany in 1870. War first came to
the son in 1898 when, as an Amerioan
citizen, he went to Cuba. Then he
served in the Fourth United States
cavalry in the Philippines during the
insurrection of 1899. Later on, hi3
mining operations in Mexico were up
set by the Yaquis and he joined Car
ranza’s army under Obregon as a cap
tain and helped put down the Indians.
He was gold mining up above the Arc
tic circle in Alaska when word of
this war reached him, many months
delayed, and he hurried to Canada, ar
riving just in time to get into the le
gion.
Business Men
Satisfied With
Nenana Lots
(Fairbanks News-Miner)
First to arrive in Fairbanks were
the men who did not buy any proper
ty at Nenana, and they knocked. And
now are in town those who purchased
lots and none of them seem sorry that
they purchased or that they paid the
price they did put up. This morning
a representative of the News-Miner
happened into the office of St.
George & Cathcart and there stood
Mr. St. George, J. G. Morrow and lien
Simson, three of the heaviest in
vestors, and all of them congratulat
ing each other that they had gotten in
on the ground floor.
That they are still convinced that
they have bargains is evident from
the conversation that took place be
tween the trio. Mr. St. George told
the other two that he would take their
“buys” off their hands right then and
give them what they paid for the
property and both refused, saying that
they had bought for investment and
were ready to stand by their bargains.
To further demonstrate that he
thinks he is right, Mr. St. George said
he would buy any lot on either side
of A street, in block 1, and pay just
what had been bid for it at the auc
tion.
Mr. Morrow reported that already
he has had applications for a lease on
his ground and at the figure named he
would get a substantial part of his in
vestment back in the first year.
Mr. Simson is enthusiastic over the
outlook for the new town and is try
ing hard to get lumber to ship to
Nenana at once so that he can get
started on the construction of a build
ing immediately. Already he has pur
chased his roofing material, but is
having difficulty in finding lumber.
Speaking of the sale, Mr. St.
George justifies his purchase thus:
“I have purchased the lot at Ne
nana that corresponds to the location
of the First National bank in Fair
banks. I paid $1,600 for it. After
the Fairbanks fire the lot upon which
the Red Cross building stands was
sold for $10,000, so that if Nenana is
only one-sixth as good as Fairbanks,
the lo*t is not a ‘lemon’.”
For several years the new town is
sure to be fairly good, these three
purchasers figure, so that any way the
cat jumps they are not going to lose
money.
