IN BRISTOL BAY
THIS SUMMER
BRISTOL BAY, August 8.—The po
tato and turnip patches promise a big
yield this year and it is believed in a
few years there will be an adequate
supply grown to supply the people of
this region.
A company from the Kuskokwim
drove reindeer from the Mission herd
to Wood River Lakes, slaughtered
them, and sold them to the canneries,
but did not have deer enough to sup
ply the demand and will put in a
cold storage plant next year.
The sailing ship “Chillicothe,” be
longing to the Columbia River Pack

Mr. and Mrs. Ford left August 1st
for Ugashik, to organize a govern
ment school and look after the rein
deer herds of that region. There has
been no school at that place since
the flu epidemic of 1919, but a suffi
cient colony of Nome Eskimos have
moved in to warrant a school.
H. P. Nicholson, who has resided

Mr. and Mrs. H. P. Polly wTho win

Wood River Lakes, left last week
with a boat load of supplies. They
will have to walk around the rapids
for a distance of several miles and
pull their boat by hand. They live
on the banks of a lake, surrounded
by a dense forest of spruce trees, all
by themselves, there being no habi
tation for miles, no visitors for per
haps six months and the bear are so
numerous that Mrs. Polly has twro
trusty rifles loaded near the door
w’hile Mr. Polly is away developing
his prospect. When Mrs. Polly bid
her friends good-bye, she declared
they were going to get their first
million.
Harold Harris, a former cow-boy of
the plains of Idaho, but of late years
a prospector of the head wraters of the
Nushagak River, has been appointed
mail carrier of the Bristol Bay re
gion for the coming year. The con
ditions of the country are such that
only four mails can be gotten in, the
average winter.
Frank Waskey, a former operator in
the gold fields of Port Nome, and by
the way, the first Delegate to Con
gress from Alaska, left last week for
Tickchik Lake, where he says he has
a good placer prospect. He believes
the Nushagak River will ultimately
become a great mining center.

Louis Egeland, one of the pioneers
of Bristol Bay, passed away August
2, 1925, from cancer of the tongue. He
leaves one son and four daughters
to continue the father’s work in civi
lizing and developing the resources
of this vast region.
Much criticism is being made
against the new fur law for Alaska,
which provides that an American cit
izen must reside in Alaska one year
or pay a license fee of fifty dol
lars for a license, if he desires to
hunt or trap. There were a num
ber of cannery people who would
have stayed here and tried prospect
ing and trapping in this region the
coming winter, but did not feel like
paying such a high fee for a license.
Many of them would undoubtedly
have become permanent citizens. It
is claimed to be the policy and de
sire of the government to settle Al
aska and yet laws are passed to re
strict population.
FOUR LARGE GROUPS
PICTURED BY GERMAN
CONTROLLING WORLD
ZERBST, Germany, Aug. 21. (JP)—
The failure of Germany and France
to come together will signify the sui
cide of Europe, declared General von
Schoenaich, at a German pacifist
meeting recently. The general was
advocating the Pan-European move
ment before seven thousand Reich
banner members.
Predicting' that economy and war
technic would determine the future
of the world, General von Schoenaich
said the world’s economy would be
divided into four large controlling
groups, which partly exist and part
ly are in process of formation. The
British Empire represents one group.
All American politics, he asserted
aimed at the formation of a greater
American group, and that America
was on the right track was already
shown by the fact that today every
sixth person in the United States is
the owner of an automobile and the
majority of American workmen are
not obliged to live in squalid cities,
but can afford to have their home in
"green country and rear rosy-cheeked
children.”
The third group, he described, as
the pan-Asiatic group which, under
Japan’s leadership, was rapidly de
veloping. As the fourth group he
designated the Soviets, "which group
is "stretching its tentacles across two
continents.”
"It is absurd,” the General said,
"for Europe, torn into 26 small states
to try to compete with four such
mighty powers, unless means and
ways were found to fuse these 26 lit
tle states into a common federation.
"In spite of all protests by the na
tionalists, I emphatically declare that
the failure of Germany and France
to come together will signify the sui
cide of Europe.”
The speaker concluded with a fer
vent appear for an alliance of the na
tions.
