SEATTLE CHAMBER
ORDERS COPIES
BIG EDITION
PUBLICITY WORK OF GATEWAY
GREAT STUFF, REPLIES
C. D. GARFIELD.
The Seattle Chamber of Commerce,
in the last mail just received, orders
200 copies of the Prosperity Edition
which the Seward Gateway will pub
lish December 5. Regarding the edi
tion the Seattle Chamber of Com
merce has the following to say:
The Gateway Pub. Co.,
Seward, Alaska.
Dear Sir:
Acknowledging receipt of your let
ter of the 25th, ultimo. The pub
licity work that you paper is under
taking for Seward and the Territory
at large should meet with the approv
al and support from all sections of
the Territory as well as all persons
in any way interested in its welfare
and development.
We have always considered that
such work done within the Territory
has been far more effective than that
performed by Outside interests as it
seems to carry more of the spirit of
the country and the people. AYe
heartily approve of the effort being
put forth in your special edition.
We have been able to arrange for
the purchase of 200 copies of the
Special Edition. If you can provide
a column or two for an article upon
the activities of this department of
the chamber, relating to Alaska we
would be pleased for the opportunity
of this publication.
<!has. D. Garfield.
Whale Boat Gunnar
Destroyed By Fire
It was reported by Dr. W. W.
Council, during his recent visit to
Seward from Cordova, that the small
whaler Gunnar, owned by Captain
Louis L. Lane, F. H. Hansen and
Richard Holbrook, was destroyed by
fire near Latouche, a few days ago.
Little particulars could be secured as
to the disaster with the exception it
was believed the harpoon gun, -which
previous trouble had been had with,
exploded once again, this time driv
ing thru the deck of the boat set
ting fire to the craft. One of the
owners, was slightly burned, it was
learned.
The Gunnar has been .engaged in
the Kodiak and Prince William
Sound district the past season, pro
curing whale meat for fox farmers.
DISTRESS SIGNALS
FLOWN BY LONE MAN
ON TILGADA ISLAND
OLDTIMER INVESTIGATES THIRTY
YEAR OLD PROSPECT
IS MAROONED
-H. Martin, an aged prospector, said
to be over 70 years of age, returned
to Seward Sunday on the Starr, from
Tigalda Island, where he has spent
the past three months, investigating
a ledge he discovered thirty years
ago. It is stated the prospect did
not come up to his expectations fol
lowing a further examination.
The elderly gentleman experienced
quite a lot of hardship on his recent
trip, it is reported, owing to the fact
that on last month’s trip of the Starr,
due to the severe weather prevailing
off the island, the vessel, which -was
to have picked him up, could not
heave to, being forced to proceed on
to Seward. Mr. Martin had hung
up distress signals all over the is
land, following the Starr’s departure
last month and kept fires burning at
night in an effort to attract the at
tention of passing boats. When the
Starr stopped this trip, Mr. Martin
told passengers on the vessel that
he was under the impression he
would have to remain on the island
all winter and to that end had built
a shelter and was preparing to lay
in a quantity of sea gulls for winter
food. When picked up by the Starr
the other day, the oldtimer had but
sufficient grub for a few days long
er.
Mr. Martin continued on to Seattle
Monday on the Starr.

In. the making ancS use of Calol Brand lu
bricating oils, chance and uncertainty are
eliminated. Years of experience with them
have established these oils in the confi
dence of industry and the marine trade.
That is why a majority of all the vessels
out of United States Pacific Coast ports,
both coastal and trans-Pacific, as well as
a large majority of the industrial plants,
—factories, canneries, mills, mines, hydro
electric plants, etc.,—in the Western
States, Alaska and the Hawaiian Islands,
use Calol lubricating oils year-in and year
out. And this use has proved beyond
question their uniform reliability and
satisfying efficiency.
■ - ■ ■ i (. ■ • | ■ i ; ' i« 1
Calol. lubricating oils are available throughout
Alaska. For information about those which will
best fill your needs, or for details about any
phase cf our Alaska service, ask any of our repre
sentatives, or write to our office in the Alaska
Building, Seattle, Washington, or your nearest
Standard Oil Station in Alaska.
There is a Calol lubricating oil scientifically de
termined for every marine and industrial need.
