TERRITORIAL NEWS
GATHERED FROM
OUR EXCHANGES
The feature of the mining news of
the week in the Northland is well au_
thenticated report that the General
Mining and Finance corporation, Lon
don will this season enter the Portland
Canal mining district and as basis for
Immediate development and explor
ation work has taken an option on the
Portland Canal mine. This concern
has vast mining properties in South
Africa and in other parts of the world.
The head of this great mining corpor
ation, Leopold L. Albu, in person visit
ed the Portland Canal district last
season and was so impressed with
what he saw that he frankly stated
at that that time that his company
proposed to enter this promising min
eral field. The bonding of the Port
land Canal mine is in fulfillment of
plans formulated soon after Mr. Albu
visited the big lode camp
Dr. S. Hall Young, pioneer Alaska
missionary, and until recently su
perintendent of the Presbyterian mis
sions in the Northland, was an ar
riving passenger in Seattle this
week. He has been assigned to the
position of special representative
for Alaska for the Presbyterian
Board of Home Missions, and will
make his headquarters in Seattle.
His new duties will be to raise
funds for building boats, etc., and
to furnish literature to carry on the
missionary work in Alaska.
Mr. Squires, Chief of the land De
partment of the Forest Service, says
there is absolutely no truth in the
statement that the rents on fox farm
lands have been raised from 25c to
$2.50 per acre. As a matter of fact
rents are not based on acreage. They
are fixed at a minimum rate of $25.00
a year with a limitation of 2500 acres.
Very few of the fox farmers are
paying more than $25.00 a year. It
would seem that 2500 acres is a fair
ly got d sized ranch on which to build
corrals.
Theodore Anderson, who left Sel
dovia last November or. the gasboat
Onyx to go to the rescue of the Mal
colm party, whose gas boat the Agram
was wrecked near llliamna, returned
to Seldovia Friday, says the Anchor
age Alaskan.
His own boat, the Onyx, was wreck
ed on the rocks near llliamna and for
six months he was isolated from civ
ilization. He reported that in all
probability his boat can be saved on |
one of the coming high tides.
Mr. Anderson seems to be none
the worse for his rugged experience,
but most emphatically declares that
he is mighty glad to reach home again.
Mrs. George Perusse, well known
former resident of the Interior, whose
husband died at Fanrbanks recently
presumably as the result of inhaling
exhaust fumes of an automobile
which he had driven to a garage, ar
rived in Anchorage last week accord
ing to the Anchorage Alaskan en
route to the Interior city. Mrs. Per.
usse was at Prince Rupert on her
way to the states when advised of the
sad occurrence and boarded the first
boat at Prince Rupert on which she
came north on the Alaska and trans.
ferred to the Redondo at Seward.
Chas. Ingersoll, pioneer Alaska
attorney, owner of the Revilla hotel |
; at Ketchikan, recently destroyed by |
fire, informs the Alaska Weekly that j
he has let a contract to the J. B. War- j
' rack Construction Company for the er-'
ection of a concrete, fireproof, mis- j
: sion style building, work to begin as j
I soon as plans are completed. Lawton
j & Molderhour, architect, with offices
! in the Alaska building, are preparing
( the plans, which call for a hotel mod
1 ern in all respects. The hotel building
will be three stories, at the present
time, but so constructed that at least
two additional stories may be added ;
later. The ground floor will be de-'
voted entirely to busines purposes. |
I The Bank of Alaska, soon to estab- j
lish abranch at Ketchikan, has taken
the prominent corner site, and other
store rooms have been spoken for.

ANCHORAGE NEWS
According to information received j
n Anchorage last week, Deputy Mar- j
*hal J. L. Heron, of Bethel, on the
