kanatak cash cornered
I. o. U*. IN CIRCULATION
In addition to bearing the distinc
tion of being the pioneer oil town
of southwestern Alaska, Kanatak
i has become a vertiabie sub-treasury
! and bureau of priming and engrav
! ing. Fact is, Kanatak is issuing its
| own currency. This condition says
the Anchorage Times is due to the
| scarity of legal tender in the camp,
caused by the fact that the Stand
ard and Associated Oil companies
pay off in checks. Once a number
of checks had been cashed there
ifas a shortage of currency. Not
having dust as a medium of ex
change as in the good old days, the
citizens hit upon a plan that has
been made to serve—they isued
I. O. U’s. But here a snag has been
encountered. Kan a tag has no silk
j paper of equal durability to that
employed in bank notes, hence by
the time checks are sent to Seward
and the cash returns the I. O. U’s.
look like pieces of tar paper from
the accumulation of oil smears and
terra firma.
A break in the dearth of currency
[ is said to have octurred recently,
but only temporarily—a man who
thought he could teach the gang how
to play dropped in with a thousand
I.
dollars. He was laundered before the
night was over and principally by
one man. In turn another thirty
third degree poker hound gathered
in the roll. The pikers only cut in
for a “stack of hots and a mug of
murk.” Sitting pat with his bankroll
the latest possessor is the object of
about the same degree of vitupe-a
tion as Wall street during a money
squeeze. He refuses to circulate the
cash, and those who would play po
ker are compelled to issue I. O. U’s.
to buy a stack and sit in.
The new currency sometimes be
comes so worn as to threaten the
signature, and the issuant is called
upon to retire his circulation and re
issue a clean bill.
A. D. Thompson went to Fair
banks yesterday on a business trip.
He will return on Tuesday.
A. A. Shonbeck, well known for
J mer resident of the Fairbanks dis
; trict, arrived on the Elks excur
j sion train yesterday from the coast
j accompanied by Mrs. Shonbeck
(They went to Fairbanks with the
I rest of the visitors and will return
I to the coast on Tuesday.

CHUGACH FOREST OFFICIALS
ACT ON 425 LAND REQUESTS
Four hundred twenty five appli
i cations for homesteads have been
acted upon by the officers of the;
Cr.ugach National Forest since the
| setting aside of that forest. Under
i the Act of June 11. 1906. known
as the Forest Homestead Act. areas
within the national forests which
are m6re valuable for agricultural
than for other purposes may be
homesteaded Examination of areas
applied for is made by the local
forest officers, and if the area is
classified as agricultural land it is
listed with the Department of the
Interior and is thrown open to
-ertlereent.
It often happens that after appli
cation is made and the area opened
to settlement the applicant aban
dons his plans and the land remains
unoccupied. At the close of the
yea; ' 1922 there were about 50
small areas within the Chugach Na
tional Forest which had bee- clas
sified as agricultural and thrown
open to entry on which no filing
has been recorded. These areas
range from 20 to 160 acres, the
total acreage of such unentered
land being in excess of 5;000 acres
Most of these area? lie in the vi
cinity of Kenai Lake and Cook In
let, but there are a few also in the
Prince William Sound district.

Tny Evan Jones mine, which was
recently put out of business by a
fire, has resumed the mining of
coal and a number of carloads
were shipped to Anchorage during
the last week. While the mine was
closed, however, numerous Anchor
age people were compelled to burn
Suntrana coal, from the Healy river
mine, and like it so well they will
continue using it. Suntrana coal is
said to be more desirable because
it does not “blow up”.
