DAWSONFORMS
A LEAGUE TO
BOOSTYUKON
A league for the development of
Yukon Territory, to be known as the
Yukon Development League, has been
organized at Dawson. All the heavy
mining operators, merchants and sub
stantial business men of Dawson be
long to the league. The purpose of
the organization is to secure Yukon’s
share of the great war indemnities
and other moneys which the Dominion
of Canada plans to spend throughout
the provinces.
The scope of the league includes
Territorial development and with this
end in view a petition will in due time
be forwarded to Ottawa asking that a
railway, to be constructed by the gov
ernment, to be built to connect with
the nearest transcontinental railway
either in British Columbia or Alberta.
The promoters of the Yukon De
velopment League claim, that such a
railway line will open up one of the
greatest mineral zones on the North
American continent, and give work to
a vast number of unemployed among j
whom will necessarily be many of the
boys from overseas.
Frank Lowe, a Dawson merchant, ,
was elected president of the league (
and J. W. Cliftotl, a member of the ,
executive committee, as a represen
tative at Whitehorse. At the sugges- |
tion of Mr. Cliftoh, it was decided to <
extend an invitation to Whitehorse to ]
organize a similar league to co-operate i
with the one in Dawson, as he thought i
that by so doing the combine^ efforts 1
of the people of the Territory would i
result eventually in securing a great i
reduction in the costs of producing (
minerals as well as in the rates of 1
transportation both to and from the s
Yukon to the Outside.
Whitehorse Star Approves. ^
Commenting on the announcement
of the formation of the league, the
WThitehorse Star says:
“The telegram does not state it to ,
be so, but we presume the intention
of the incorporators of the Yukon De- ,
velopment League is to have ijgiyson (
named as the interior terminal of the
proposed government-ibuilt railway.
The Weekly Star is in favor of any
thing that will help the Territory, but ,
we have grave doubts as to whether
or not the contemplated movement
even if endorsed by the federal gov
ernment, and of that we have still
more serious doubts, would be to the
best interests of Southern Yukon.
However, although we are from Mis
souri, we are open to conversion, and
will reserve comment until better in
formed as to just what steps are to be
taken by the Dawson organization.”

WILL BE GOOD YEAR
FOR FISHING BUSINESS
“Indications are that the fishing
business in Alaskan waters will be
better for the small operator during
the next year than ever before,” said
Captain C. H. Gallagher, who has been
engaged in that industry at a point
on Icy strait for many years. “There
has been some intimation that there
would be little fishing during the com
ing year and that many of the Inde
pendent operators will suspend activi
ties. “I fished with only one trap last
year but this coming season I expect
to build two more.
“General conditions in Alaska are
recovering from the effects of the war
and almost every boat bound north
ward is taking back the people who
came out to work ii# the shipyards,
munition plants and other industries.
“All of us in the North are optimistic
as to the future.”

—Scores of American tourists have

Several thousand French soldiers

«Io civilians have come back, as the

if the few parts of the church which
tave not been shot away by German
hells.
