HOW COME IGNORANCE?
Everytime we think of Outside knowledge about a
Territory one-fifth as large as the States, we wonder
about the editor of that magazine who permitted the
author to take his hero by train from Nome to Juneau.
Not finding her there, because the elusive jane had fled,
he calmly got back into his Ford and motored back to
Nome.
That story has long whiskers with us but it is met
with a smile of incredulity by most of our visitors. Is
there no way on God’s earth to teach the people of the
nation something about Alaska? Must we now suffer
the attacks of Steward Edward White and other sharp
shooting propagandists? Must we bear forever the her
itage of Rex Beach and Jack London? Is it possible
that in spite of the knowledge of us local folks after
many years we shall be further hampered in the devel
opment of this Territory?
Mariners would prefer lights on buoys at Kodiak in
stead of on points as they are now. The reason given is
that it is difficult to pick up the unlighted buoys at night
and that greater caution than usual must be maintained
in making port.

WHILE BOATS TIE IP
Fearing that some child or ever
a grown person would be injured
while the many ships that make
the Pott of Seward, are tying up,
various captains have requested
ithat the public be kept back until
| tine ships are made fast.
Hence beginning with the arrival
of the S. S. Aleutian, a rope will be
! stretched between the two build- j
lings on the dock and no one will be j
| permitted behind this rope except j
the regular dock employes. After
the ship is made fast, the rope will
be removed and those who wish to
'greet their friends at the gang
I plank may do so.

FISHING IS GREAT
A 24 inch rainbow trout was
caught Monday in Ptarmigan
Creek, just above La wing’s, but
the average snaked in measure
between 18 to 20 inches, states
| Eill Lawing who was in town yes
terday. The best luck is had with
a little spindle, he added.
