TWO MUSHERS
STORM-BOUN
I ON GLACIER
(From McCarthy News)
Joe McLellan and George Walker,
the census enumerator, returned from
Chisana on Thursday morning. Though
Mr. Walker is an old-timer in the coun
try, he says that he has never experi
enced such storms before in Alaska
as he and Mr. McLellan encountered
on the Rohen glacier on their way in
to Chisana. Not only did they have to
contend with a raging blizzard, but a
heavy fog besides, which made trav
eling impossible and dangerous, so
digging a hole in the snow, they lay
down in it for forty hours, when the
storm cleared and they were able to
continue on. If only a few more gov
ernment officials would travel these
glacier trails, and under the same con
ditions as Mr. Walker did, an appro
priation would soon be authorized,
even if it was only for staking the
trails out over the crevices on these
glaciers for winter travel.
A. G. Grate and S. Underwood left
last Sunday morning for the Chitina
river country on a prospecting expe
dition. They are taking enough pro
visions to last them till snow flies
again next fall. If the prospects jus
tify, a large outfit will be placed in
that country next winter. Mike
Knowles accompanied them on the
trip, having secured the contract to
deliver their freight.
Jack O’Hara and Ed Briggen left
for the Interior with their fast dog
teams last Wednesday morning.
Joe Prout, foreman at the Jumbo
mine, is enjoying a vacation. He is
leaving tomorrow with a dog team for
a trip to the head of the Chitina and
other points, and expects to be away
a couple of weeks. On his return he
will make a short visit Outside.
The clerk of the court will be here
some time next week to grant citizen
ship papers to aliens who desire to
become Americans. Up to date six
teen appplications are on file—16 pa
triotic Alaskans who are willing to re
nounce their king and country and be
come part of this. These sixteen men
have been associated with Alaska for
a number of years, are fully conver
sant with its federal and local laws,
and are now beginning to realize that
to have a direct voice in all matters
appertaining to their welfare they
should have the right to vote.

MANY MILLIONS ARE
TO BE SPENT TO OPEN
VAST AREAS OF LAND
CALGARY, Alta., April 6 (by Asso
ciated Press (.—Proposals for new irri
gation undertakings, involving the ex
penditure of many millions of dollars,
and which will serve vast areas of
land in Alberta, are said to be receiv
ing favorable consideration from pro
vincial and Dominion authorities.
The projects will extend from the
Rocky mountains to the Saskatche
wan border, and from the international
boundary line diagonally northeast to
a point about due east of Calgary, on
the Saskatchewan border.
Failure of crops in many unirrigated
sections during the last two dry years
is said to have been responsible for a
revived interest in irrigation as insur
ance for crop success.
