JUNEAU RESIDENT PAYING
FIRST VISIT TO INTERIOR
L. M. Carrigan, veteran repre
sentative of Armour and Company,
with headquarters in Juneau, is
paying his first visit to Interior
Alaska, having arrived from the
coast on the Sunday train. He wili
go on to Fairbanks on the first avail
able train and probably will return
to the coast next Sunday.
Although a stranger in this part
of Alaska, Mr. Carrigan has a num
ber of solid accounts in the Interior
and it is his intention, now that the
Government railroad has bridged
the distance between coast and In
terior Alaska, to enlarge upon his
periodical journeyings from Juneau.
The railroad, in his opinion, is!
sure to improve conditions in Central
Alaska, and he looks for a large
volume of travel during the coming
summer. This opinion, he says, is
shared by nearly everyone along the
coast, for he heard it talked all the
way, on his present trip.
Speaking of conditions along the
coast, Mr. Carrigan told a represent- i
ative of The News yesterday, that
the fishing industry promises to!
take on big proportions during the
coming seasons, with a very con
siderable number more canneries in
operation than were running last
year.
Mr. Camgan has been with the
Armour Company for more than a
score of years and has the distinc
tion of haring been located at one
point for more than a dozen years,
■which is a fairly good indication
that he is a desrable addton to the
populaton of Alaska.
The entertainment committee, in
charge of the arrangements for the
entertainment and dance to be giv
en by the Pioneers on the night of
February 21, will place the tickets
on sale today or tomorrow and it
expected that there will be a lively
demand for them. The arrangements
are taking form rapidly and it is
promised that the affair will be one
of the most enjoyable of the winter.
A special train was sent out the
line this morning.
F. A. Hansen, engineer mainten
ance and construction, was among
those leaving for Anchorage on the
Sunday train.
The train leaving Xenana on
Sunday went through on schedule
time, being at Curry (Deadhorset
last night and due at Anchorage
early this afternoon.
Mrs. C. M. Printz, writing to Mrs.
D'Orsay from Seattle, say? that she
has been confined to her bed most
of the time since leaving Xenana.
On the day the letter was written,
she was up for the fist time in
many w’eeks. She also writes that
Mr. Printz has searched in vain
from employment and that condi
tions generally, in the Spirit City,
are far from being good. Mrs.
Printz’s daughter, Dorothy, is still
studying at the University of Wash
ington and getting along splendidly.
William Rodikeit. of the Tavern
Cafe, writes from St. Faul, that he
underwent a successful major oper
ation in that city and will soon be
ready to start on the return trip
to Xenana. It is expected that he
will be here early next month.
M’DONALD SAYS CONDITIONS
ARE IMPROVING ON COAST
“There is a perceptible change j
for the better in conditions along
the Pacific Coast,” said Vance Mc
Donald yesterday, when asked yes
terday for a statement, inorder that
readers of The News might know
how things are going in the States.
“No big rush of prosperity, or any
thing like that,” he continued, “but
a gradual quickening of the pulse
of trade, a few more men returning
to work and a general feeling that
things will soon be getting back to
normal.”
Mr. McDonald is too well known
in Central Alaska to need any in
troduction. He is known by nearly
every one along the Yukon river
and has been a frequent visitor in
Nenana since taking up his present
line of work as Alaska represent
ative of numerous Outside wholesale
concerns. He arrived in town on
the Sunday train from the coast
and will cover pretty much all of
the Interior country before returning
south. He expects to go to Fair
banks on the next train.
The ride to Nenana from the
coast on a “regular” train was very .
much in the way of a novelty to
Mr. McDonald, so accustomed has (
he become, in this country, to travel- j
ing by dog team. The last time he;
was in Nenana, there was a big!
gap between ends of steel and
many obstacles in the way of the i
establishment of through traffic. And
the early completion of the road,
considerably ahead of schedule and
far ahead of general expectation,
came as a very agreeable surprise
to him.
Mr. McDonald represents the West
Coast Grovery Co., of Tacoma, the
A. V. Love Dry Goods C., also of
Tacoma, and the Hardeman Hat Co..;
Washington Shoe Mfg. Co., Hood
Rubber Products Co. and Seattle
Cap Mfg. Co., all of Seattle.
COMMERCIAL CLUB TO HOLD
BUSY MEETING TOMORROW
—
A meeting of the Nenana Com- i
mercial Club will be held at the
club chambers in the Union building j
tomorrow night and everyone in- j
terested in the growth and welfare:
of the town is urged to be present.
The meeting will be called to
order sharp at eight o’clock.
The club is in receipt of a tele
gram from Delegate Sutherland and
one from Colonel Mears bearing on
the freight and railroad situation
and as it is of the utmost importance
that early action be taken, it is
hoped that the business men of the
town will respond to this notice in
force.
Officers for the ensuing year were
placed in nomination at a largely
attended meeting of Nenana Lodge
No. 1193, Loyal Order of Moose,
last night, and the business meet
ing was followed by an unusually
enjoyable social session. Election of;
officers will be held at the next
meeting and it is expected at that
time there also will be several can
didates to initiate.
The students of Franklin K. j
Lane High School are at work on
the second issue of their newspaper,
the Nenana School Star, the only
publication of the kind in Alaska.
