general manager of te Alaska S. S.
Co, the Copper River & Northwest
ern railway and te Kennecott corpo
ration, arrived in Cordova recently
on a trip of inspection in the inter
ests of his company. From Cordova,
Mr. Stannard will travel over lie
Richardson hi gliw'iv ' o Fail hanks
an (.me out ever the Government
rn.l.vay to Sen.ml. He is expected
here within a week or ten days.
Commissioner Henry O’Malley, of
the bureau of fisheries said recently
at a meeting in Juneau that the wan
ton destruction of herring would
soon lead to a more stringent regu
lation, if the herring packers on the
Alaskan coast ignore the laws regard
ing same. Mr. O’Malley stated that
all packers have been warned and
those who violate the rule of im
pounding fish which have led to loss
of herring, will be duly prosecuted
according to law.
It has been learned that agents of
Prohibition Commissioner Roy Hay
nes, secretly investigating the prohi
bition enforcement in Washington
and Oregon, are leavng Seattle and
will report to F. A. Hazelton, Paci
fic Northwest director, who is at
present in Juneau, having finished a
tour of this part of Alaska.
There will be no Chautauqua per
formances in Southeastern Alaska
for the coming winter, it was learn
ed recently. Lack of finances in the
west to carry on a circuit in Alas
ka is the cause of postponement of
these shows.
Trader Newton, wife and three
children have moved to Fairbanks
for the winter from their trade post
far up ihe Tanana river. The move
was made in order that the children
might attend school in Fairbanks.
They purchased the R. C. Thorn ca
bin, at Second and Lack and finding
it too small, bought the Ben Thomp
son house on Lower Fourth, where
they are now comfortably located.
The Berry dredge ,which was com
pelled to suspend operations for ap
proximately three weeks during the
dry spell, is now working steadily
and will continue operating until the
freezeup.
Oldtimer Etead, of the Central
roadhouse, on the Circle trail', has
an affliction of the eyes and is going
to the Mayo hospital at Rochester
| for treatment. He expects to return
i during the late fall.
Mrs. Edward Keough, of Nenana,
died at the Fairbanks hospital last
Saturday morning. She was brought
up from Nenana the previous night
but her condition was such that no
thing could be done for her, her ail
ment being cancer of the stomach.
She leaves a husband and six chil
dren, the husband being in the em
ploy of the Alaska Railroad. Burial
took place in the Fairbanks ceme
tery, with services at the Catholic
church.
W. H .Watson arrived from the
Circle district this week and re
ports that the first part of the sea
son was unusually dry. There was
some improvement after the first
of August and conditions have been
improving steadily since then, with
the result that considerable wrork
has been done during the latter part
- of the season, with the promise of a
_ good yield if the cold weather holds
on sufficiently long. Watson has
been working on Faith creek and is
now headed for the States for the
winter.

EYAK HATCHERY
DOES BIG WORK
Six million sockeye salmon eggs
have been taken during the present
season by the Cordova territorial
hatchery and will be stocked in rear
ing ponds at Eyak where the sta
tion is located.
The Cordova hatchery lifted a to
tal of 40,000 red salmon into the
Eyak Lake this season, it is said. In
its early season operations it ob
served great schools of silver salmon
below the lake before they started
on their journey to the sea. The
station has continued its warfare on
salmon trout this season .Since early
last June it has destroyed more
than 28,000 of this speties. Some of
them ran 38 inches in length, longer
than any sockeye entering the lake.
It is estimated that the destruction
of this number saved around 10,000,
000 salmon. Few if any salmon
trout were able to enter the lake, ex
cept very small ones which escarped
thrrough the mesh of the trap web
bing.
In the Cordova district this season
the Washington Fish Commission is
takng 15,000,000 humpback salmon
eggs. In return for these they will
give the Territory several million
egg's from Chinook salmon which will
be distributed to the hatcheries at
Ketchikan, Cordova and Seward and
planted after being hatched. In this
manner it is hoped to build up a
Chinook run in Territorial streams.

AN EMPIRE BUILDER
As all railroads in years gone by have been the greatest
contributing factors in development of the regions through
which they passed, so also is THE ALASKA RAILROAD
each day accomplishing much towards the building of an
empire.
In place of the old tremendously expensive and inconve
nient method of transporting supplies of whatever character
over rough trails from the coast, there is now a modern rail
way that carries supplies and equipment in greater quantities
to and from the Interior, and along the way, in much less
time and at far less expense than was formerly required.
This great steel highway offering regular twice weekly
freight and passenger service between Seward, Anchorage and
Fairbanks; and tri-weekly mixed service over the Chickaloon
and Chatanika branches, is at your service. For further in
formation write
