Big Kodiak Bear Hide Now Hangs
In the State Capitol of North Da
kota Says Visitor.
“I do not feel like a stranger in
your land for I have been around
Seward now a good deal. Last year
I had a splendid hunt to the West
ward. Just now, I have returned
from Kenai Peninsula district where
three weeks’ hunting was enjoyed.
As a result of the bear hunt last
year, a large bear hide now hangs
in the capitol at Pierre, South Da
kota, and it is a fine advertisement
for Alaska. I like the country so
well that already I am making plans
to return next season. The above
speaker was P. D. Beaulieu of Win

Alaska Information Scarce.
Mrs. Beaulieu, who is remaining
in Anchorage while Mr. Beaulieu
roams about the country hunting, ac
companied Mr Beaulieu to Alaska,
coming in via Skagway, Whitehorse
and Dawson. With respect to this
trip, Mr. Beaulieu explained to the
members of the chamber yesterday
that great difficulty was experienced
in obtaining authentic information
regarding this route in to the Ter
ritory. He himself personally knew
of six people besides himself who
warned to make the trip but were
told that below Dawson it would be
impossible to secure accommodations.
Alaska’s negligence in permitting
this route of travel to become known
to the visitor only by his or her
own effort, is a big financial loss to
the Territory for every tourist, re
gardless of which way they may en
ter Alaska, will leave a 100 per cent
booster, and in planning their itin
erary through the famous oldtime
Yukon camp, which has gone down
in history as one of the greatest
gold towns of the world, the visitor
feels as though they have not miss
ed anything.
Same Condition Last Year.
J. P. Hannon, secretary of the
chamber,"at this point explained to
Mr. Beaulieu that practically the same
condition of affairs was in evidence
last year, that many tourists trav
eling down to Dawson, and who
would have enjoyed making the down
river trip, were informed that no
desirable accommodations were pro
curable. The result was the tour
ists after viewing the Dawson region
would return to Whitehorse and over
the White Pass road to Skagway and
thence back to the States. With few
exceptions, and to the knowledge of
the editor of the Seward Gateway,
but one couple, after returning to
Skagway, came Westward. And up
on arriving at Seward, instead of
continuing into the Interior due to
lack of time, they returned to the
States from Phis point. Mr. Hannon

i3 working on the matter, and it is
believed that next year will see a
large increase of tourists routed thru
Dawson.
Mr. Beaulieu said he had been pre
viously informed the same difficulty
confronted a group of 27 Eastern
people last year, and an attorney
friend of his, who represented the
group, made a report on his findings.

For Two Weeks' Hunt In the
Cantwell District.
The four weeks’ big game hunt
in the Tastumena and Skilak lake
region, was highly successful and
satisfactory in every way to P. D.
Beaulieu, business man of Winner,
S. D„ who, accompanied by William
Kaiser and Mel Horner, well known
guides and hunter, returned to Sew
ard yesterday on the steamer Alas
ka. A moose, two black bears and
two sheep, are the net results of
Mr. Beaulieu’s hunt.
Meets Other Hunting Party.
While in the Kenai region this
party met up with the Dr. and Mrs.
Brands’ party w'hose guides returned
also yesterday, Dr and Mrs. Brands
continuing to King’ Cove after brown
bear.
The moose head measured 52 inch
es, Mr. Beaulieu said yesterday, and
one of the bears was a good size
specimen, the sheep being fair size.
One day in a basin, he said they
saw at least 100 sheep scattered
about. It w'as certainly a fine look
ing sight.
Though he has been to the West
ward hunting, this was the first time
he had hunted on the peninsula and
he stated he was already preparing
plans to return for another hunt
next season.
Offers Game Suggestion.
Mr. Beaulieu was asked by the
Seward Gatewmy, during the inter
view', if there were any suggestions
to be offered, regarding the Alaska
game law's. He replied there w'as
only one which w'as he believed there
should be a closed season on brown
bear. This animal is a distant as
set to the Territory, hunters coming
to Alaska from distances many thou
I sands of miles away, and unless
some precaution or regulation is tak
en, the browm bear will be complete
ly exterminated.
Mr. Beaulieu left Sew'ard this
morning, on the freight train for
Anchorage, where his wife is remain
ing wrhile he is enjoying himself in
the mountains. He goes to Cant
well, on Thursday, in which vicinity
he will spend a couple of weeks
hunting for caribou and, more bear.
