Promoters of the Bailey Bay Hot
Springs Sanatorium, which is to be
built by Ketchikan men, are enthusi
astic over the natural advantages of
the place. There are a series of nine
springs bubbling forth the average
temperature of which is near the
boiling point, or 293 degrees. An
elaborate system of baths is planned
by thg syndicate.
The twelfth day of July John F.
Chamberlain, dean of commercial
salesmen in Alaska celebrated twenty
years service in Alaska. Mr. Cham
berlain first came to Alaska as a re
presentative of Schwabacher Hard
ware Company of Seattle, and re
mained with that company for over
ten years. He then entered the ser
vices of the Whit.011 Hardware Co., |
and Pacific Net and wine Company,
of Seattle. It is claimed he has trav
eled more miles in Alaska than any
other salesman.
William Allen, a long-time resident
of Dawson, was shot accidentally last
week while in front of his home on
fired from a 22 caibre revolver in the
hands of a nine year old boy, and
died shortly after from internal hem
orrhage. Mr. Allen had invited the
little fellow to shoot at some drift
in the river and handed the revolver
telling him it was very easy on the
trigger. The boy took hold of the
weapon and it was discharged, the
bullet entering the abdomen.
The regular monthly meeting of
the Fairbanks Igloo of Pioneers last
week voted $50 to the city gymna
sium fund, and also transacted much
business. The meeting passed a res
olution condemning the Carlisle can
nery in the Yukon river, and appoint
ed a committee to get in touch with
the Fisheries department with a view
to having the cannery removed so
that fish can get up the river to the
Indian villages. Since the establish
ment of the cannery many of the na
tives and whites have been forced to
kill their dogs as no fish could be se
cured to feed them.
Southeastern Alaska papers state
that so far the salmon run has been
a failure, and that if the run does not
start soon many of the larger plants
will shut down without trying to
finish the season. The T. P. Harris
plant at Hoonah is the only cannery
which has made anything like a nor
mal pack. The Hoonah Packing Co.
took 80,000 fish in their trap in Gull
cove in three days but others are not
getting anything like a normal pack.
Many fishermen have left with their
boats for the states. Most of the fish
caught are pinks and chums.
The Petersburg Report claims that
many jokes have been played on
Alaska by the present administration,
some funny and others serious but
the greatest joke perpetuated for
some time was when the census was
taken in the dead of winter with the
most of Alaska’s population in the
states. The paper claims that Alaska
did not get credit for one-fourth of
her population. Petersburg was cred
ited with 880 persons, and the paper
claims that anyone in town knows
that there are at least twice that
number. It claims that now all of
the houses are full and that resi
dences cannot be secured for all.
