Now comes E. J. White, better
known in and throughout Alaska as j
the "Stroller,” and declares in his Ju
neau paper that the tourists as well
as the fish have “refused to ran,”
and are not coming this year. Pro
bably they are “spooning” down in
Yellow Stone Park.
The hills are reported full of ptar-!
migan this year the dry weather
causing few deathes among the
chicks.
WISEMAN DISTRICT
HAS DRY SEASON
The weather at Wiseman has been
very good but due to the lack of
water mining operations have been
quiet according to word received re
cently from the Koyuku district.
Sam Dubin swamped his scow
on the lower Koyukuk river and be
fore it could be righted, 17 sacks of
parcel post and second class mail
were lost in the water.
There is a report at Wiseman that
a man named Evans lost almost 10
tons of supplies below Alatna while
he was bringing a boat up the Koy
ukuk river.
The population of Wiseman is im
patiently waiting the arrival of their
new wireless plant which was at
the mouth of the Koyukuk the first
part of July. When the plant is set j
up the camp wil be a communication
with with outs'dc world for the first!
time.

INDIANS HAVE NEW
INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL
As a result of recommendations
made to the bureau of education by
B. B. MBozee, superintendent, last
fall recommending the removal of the
orphanage at Tyonic to some place
in the Matanuska valley, arrange
ments have been completed for the
building of the first unit of a large
industrial school at Eklutna. The first
building, says the Anchorage Times,
which ultimately will be a dormitory,
will be built under the direction of
Casper Malmberg, recently appoint
ed superintendent of the school.
Several carloads of material for
the first unit are on hand and work
will be started on the building this
week. *
Mr. Mozee stated that the primary
reason for the establishment of such
an industrial school at Eklutna is
due to the bureau of education’s de
sire to train the Indian children in
their native environment and climate
and not send them out to the Indian
schoo’s in the states. In the past
Indian children have been sent to
schools such as Chemawa at Salem,
Oregon.
The industrial school at Eklutna,
when finished, will consist of several
units grouped in a square. The main
building of this square will be used
as classrooms for the elementary and
grade school classes. On either side
of the main building will be shops
for vocational and trade courses. In
front and at the corners of the hol
low square will be two two-story dor
mitories, one for the boys and t he
other for girls. Teachers’ cottages
will also be built.
The plans, for this year only in
clude the building of one of the
buildings, ultimately a dormitory,
but to be used this year for all the
work of the school. This building
will cost approximately $11,500 and
will be .36 by 52 feet in size. It will
have a cement basement, electric
lights and steam heat throughout.
The staff chosen for the year will
include Mr. and Mrs. Casper Malm
berg and three others to be announc
ed later. It is planned to have a
staff consisting of the superintend
ent, who will be the chief instructor
in manual training, a teacher of the
elementary school, a nurse, a matron
and a general utility man.
Although, Mr. Mozee stated today,
most of the oiphans from the orph
anage at Tyonic will be brot over to
Eklutna as the first students, the
school at Eklutna will not be an or
phanage but purely an industrial
school where any of the Indian chil
dren who have finished the fourth,
fifth or sixth grades may receive a
finished trade of vocational training.
A man and a teacher will stay at
Tyonic this winter to take care of the
school at that place and what In

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC
Ordinance No. 78 of the Town of Seward, en
titled an Ordinance to Establish and Regulate
Rates, etc., provides that all electric current in
the Town of Seward shall be sold through me
ters after September 1, 1924. The maximum
rates fixed by said Ordinance are as follows:
For Lighting and Domestic Purposes:
12 l-2e per k. w. for first 100 k. w. hours.
10c per k. w. for the second 100 k. w. hours.
8c per k. w. for all over 300 k. w. hrs.
For Power the rates are: One horsepower

The Ordinance also fixes a flat rate for in
stalling meters including connecting and discon
necting at $1.50 each. Consumers should make

By Order of the Town Council
By Wm. H. Whittlesey, Town Clerk
Dated at Seward, Alaska, July 14, 1924.
dian children stay there. The offi
cials will also look after the fishing j
reservation rights of the native In- j
d.'ans.
The reserve for the Indian Indus
trial school at Eklutna calls for all
land in the vicinty of the mouth of
the Eklutna not already filed upon by j
homesteaders. The school itself will j
be built on the tract of land north of!
the Eklutna river, between the river
and the Alaska Railroad, about 200
feet east of the railroad right of
way. The school building will face
the railroad and the inlet.
Mr. Mozee stated today that the
reasons for establishing the indus
trial school at Eklutna was that its
location was such that when the pro
posed Anchorage Light and Power
company built their hydro-electric
plant at Sklutna, the school could re
ceive cheap electric power for use in
the shops and buildings. Further
more, said Mr. Mozee, the tract of
land has good opportunity for large
agricultural areas for the extensive
gardens which the Indians will cul
tivate for school use. Also the dis
trict around Eklutna is a fine game j
country and has excellent duck hunt-!
ing.
One of the weighty reasons for j
building the school at Eklutna is due
to its facility to the bureau of edu
cation reindeer herd in the Broad
Pass country. ' It will be able to send
Indian lads to the herd for their
training as reindeer herders ,and also
it will be easily possible to procure
reindeer meat for use at the school.
