FISH SCARCE ALONG YUKON;
NATIVES FACE HARD WINTER
The scarcity of salmon along die
Yukon river during the last sesson
svil] be felt keenly by the natives
during the coming winter, according
to Duke E. Stubbs, who arrived
from the lower river on Sunday,
enroute to Fairbanks for trial in
district court on a charge of mak
ing false claim for traveling ex
penses as a witness in an Iditarod
case. He was required to make a
trip to Fairbanks last spring, fol
lowing his indictment, and was
ready for trial at Flat when his
case was called during the .summer;
but the prosecution obtained a
change of venue and the defendant
is now making his second trip to
court headquarters. He went to
Fairbanks this afternoon, accom
panied by Mrs. Stubbs.
The scarcity of salmon along the
Yukon and its tributaries, Mr.
Stubbs declares, is :he direct result
of the cannery operations at the
mouth of the river. He does not
pretend to be a fisheries expert,
but he has devoted considerable
rime to a study of the salmon situa
tion and it was largely through his
efforts that the Kuskokwim river
was closed. He went to Washington
and took the matter up direct with
the authorities.
There is nothing to report in the
way of new developments in tr.e
Kuskokwim section, Mr. Stubbs says.
The Kilroy dredge, which is being
moved from the Ruby district to
Ganes creek, arrived safely at
Bethel, at which point it was taken
in tow by the Quickstep. It will be
moved across country over the snow
during the winter. A new wireless
station has been installed at Bethel
and is now working.
There was a slight revival in min
ing on Flat during the summer and
the two dredges opering on Ophir
are reported to have had a fairly
successful reason. Considerable in
terest is manifested in the develop
ment of some quartz properties
near Flat and oldtimers are looking
forward hopefully to much activity
along that line.
-V-'l ...—..
To sniping proposition, and scarcely'
that, and is now practically de-.
ser*ed. Furs appear to be fairly
plentiful along the river and there
is souse prospecting going on, but
no new striks have been reported. |
Mr. and Mrs. Stubbs made the
trip from the Kuskokwim to the
Yukon by way of the portage and
brought considerable of an out
fit with them.
It will be of interest to oldthners 1
to know that the portage has been
staked by the Government and can
be followed now without difficulty.
The Kuskokwim and Yukon rivers
are very close together at this poirt*.
so close that a canal approximately
thirty miles in length would enable
steamers to cross from one stream
to the other. By means of lakes and
small streams, small boats are able
to traverse nearly the entire dis
tance, but the route was a difficult
one to follow before it was staked.
Charles Ross. Iditaxod banker, ar
rived from the lower river last week
and left for the States on the FYi
day train. He went to Iditarou
several weeks ago for the purpose
of making preparations for winding
up the affairs of the M. &. M. bank,
which will close its door in Novem
ber, 1923, after a most successful
career
Mrs. W. S. Christensen and Mrs. I
James McIntyre returned to their
homes in Fairbanks yesterday after
a visit of several days in Nenana.
