pected at least .twenty car owners
will have notified Mr. Sweek, local
agent for the Alaska railroad, of their

- five people to a car, and 20 autos, it
is seen than at least 100 local folk are
planning at this early date to join
the excursion. Sleeping quarters are
being arranged in the Pass but excur
sionists are requested to take along
their own blankets and a sufficient
amount of lunch to last them for the
entire trip. It is reported meals will
■ be served by a few of the residents
.. of the Pass but nothing definite on
this can be stated.
Mr. Sweek advises auto owners
that railroad flat cars will be spotted
alongside of the Arcade Gardens and
a runaway put up which will make il
an easy matter for the cars to be driv
en up and one the flats. It is import
ant that the loading of the autos be

This has been an exceptional sum
mer on the Nushagak in more ways
than one. The weather has been ideal,
the salmon run was very good and
all the canneries put up a good pack,
a shortage of cans causing some in
convenience to some of the canning
companies.
* m m *
I
Fires in the outlying districts caus
ed some little anxiety but n6 prop
erty has been destroyed up to date
and this last day or two heavy show
ers of rain have been quite frequent.
• * *
Take it on the whole this has been
a banner year for those in business.
The Alaska Packers did a record busi
ness. Mr. Nicholson at Dillingham
is doing a thriving business; Mr. Hall
over at Nushagak has practically sold
out all his stock and Mr. Anderson
at the Creek cannery also does a
thriving business.
• • *
t
Rumor has it that J. L. Lowe at
Snag Point is going out of business
oh account of poor health. «
* * *
Dillingham is coming right to the
front; a Territorial school will be es
tablished this fall, and another large
store is to be built just behind the .
old Bradford cannery site. The court
spent two days at Dillingham, but this
is a peaceful town, and they left with
a good word for Dillingham.
* * *
The Kanakanak orphanage has
had a change of staff; Y. Y. Calkins,
the district superintendent, is going -
out after a stay of two years, accom
panied by his wife and two children,
one of which was born at Kanakanak.
Mr. Calkins was very popular with the
residents, and both Mr. and Mrs. Cal
kins made many friends while they
were here Mr. Beck takes Mr. '
Calkins place. Mr. Beck is a man
who has had considerable experience
in this line of work, and he seems to
fit.
* * *
A good many are getting ready to
take advantage of the open season
on beaver. Berries are very plentiful ,
and the potato crop is going to be a
good one.
* * *
W. N. Reed, deputy marshal, who
is dubbed the Nushagak radio wizard,
contemplates adding a wireless to his
string of complicated machinery. He
actually gets up in the middle of
the night and pounds on the tele
graph key in practice for the long
winter ahead.
The erection of a modern one-line
cannery is planned for the coming
year at Unalaska by business men
there. The waters near Unalaska are
literally alive with salmon and the
venture, it is stated, will undoubted
ly prove profitable to its backers.
RECORD PACE PUT UP
SI A, P. F„ KINC GOVE
The Pacific American Fisheries
plant at King Cive had packed 167,
000 cases of salmon up to Aug. 14,
about 40,000 cases better than any
previous pack. The limit is 175,000
cases but this mark will probably not
be reached due to a shortage of cans.
