TWENTY YEARS AGO
Walter E. Clark, the Washington
correspondent, in a dispatch to the
Post-Intelligencer says:
*"It is certain that the North Paci
fic and Alaska Fisheries are capable
of much further development. Fresh
halibut from Alaska are shipped as
far east as Boston, where they com
mand a good price in competition with
the eastern article.
“The Aiaska halibut fisheries are
productive every month in the year,
and are increasing their output every
month.”
Mr. Clark also says experts see a
great future for Alaska herring.
Steamer Santa Ana arrived from
Seattle at 7:30 p. m. last Friday with
a heavy cargo of freight and many
i-A* passengers. She left for Cook Inlet
and returned here at 7:45 last even
ing, soon after leaving for the south.
This vessel had 15S tons of dredger
machinery for C. S. Carters mines on
the Inlet which was safely unloaded.
This machinery had been lying at Se
attle and Valdez for several months.
Outside of this machinery the ship
had 100 tons of other freight for the
Inlet country.
The white population of Sitka is
435.
Godfrey Chelander has been named
by Governor John G. Brady as com
missioner of Alaska to make arrange
ments and prepare the Alaska exhibit
for the Lewis and Clark fair at Port
land, Oregon, and his appointment has
been confirmed by Secretary Thomas
Ryan, of Washington.
Fairbanks now has a chamber of
commerce with Captain Donald B. Ol
son, president; Dr. W. G. Cassels,
vice president; John F. Dillon, secre
tary, and George Butler, treasurer.
O. G. Herning, general manager fen
the Klondyke and Boston Gold Minin?
company, left on the steamer Port
land for Cook Inlet. He will pro
ceed to his company’s property oi
Willow creek and Grub Stake gulct
and begin operations for the comin?
season. Last year Mr. Heming hat
everything in perfect readiness fo:
taking out gold dust on a large scab
this season. After a short run befort
weather came on last year, the re
suits more than exceeded the expecta
tions; hence it is anticipated that th<
output will be quite prolific from nov
on.
Including all the departments, thert
are now 525 men in the employ of th<
Alaska Central railway system be
tween Seward and Turnagain Arm.
Alaska Treadwell stock is quoted 'i
• the London market at six pounds pe:
; share.
Seattle parties have been examining
i Telephone group of Copper claims a
Sunny bay the past few days and i
is possible that a deal will be made
G. Sinkler has taken a contract 01
rockwork along Lake Kenai beyont
the end of the track. He expects ti
complete the work in three weeks an<
then secure a grading contract.
At 1:30 p. m. last Tuesday a blaz<
was seen on the roof of the two-stor:
residence of Mr. D. W, Harvey, 01
Third avenue. The alarm was scar
cely given until every able bodie<
man in town was on his way to thi
fire with either a pail of water or i
ladder. Sufficient water was soot
drawn from the hydrants on the wa
ter system on Fourth avenue to fioa
the building had it been required. A:
it was the blaze was soon extinguish
ed and the damage was nominal.
This was Seward’s first experienci
with fire, and the alacrity with whicl
everyone responded, proves that j
conflagation would have a big star
if the people did not soon quench it
