SAND POINT GET
NEW CANNERY
NEXT SPRING
SAND POINT, Alaska, Aug. 16th,
—Salmon are still running up here.
The Shumagin Pkg. Co. at Squaw
Harbor has put up 65,000 cases and
is still canning. Some people seem
to get on the right side of O’Malley,
Dr. Gilbert, and the Powers that be.
The Columbia River Packing As
sociation head officers paid a visit
to Left-Hand Bay where they intend
to build a large cannery next spring.
They were very much pleased with
the location as there is plenty of room,
a good depth of water and plenty of
fresh water, even for power. They
have already located several trap
sites outside of the reservation, so
they no doubt will get a fair pack for
next season, that is if the bureau of
fisheries does not interfere.
We are glad to get one of our old
citizens back again. Andrew Hansen
was 'welcomed back by his wife and
children on the last Starr, after a
short stay in Valdez for offering Mr.
Snooks a drop of his home brew on
one of the coldest days we had thi3
spring. Now some one has made it
hot for Mr. Snooks and someone has
started to take up a collection for
Andrew—Well, everybody gets their
just awards, they say.
KANATAK IS
MUCH AROUSED
GATEWAY ITEM
Kanatak, Alaska, Aug. 14, 1925
Editor Seward Gateway,
Seward Alaska,
Dear Sir:
The Seward Gateway of July 25th
published an article said to have
been contributed by a prominent oil
man of Kanatak, at the request of
many residents of this district.
An investigation has failed to dis
close any residents who assisted or
requested the services of any would
be prominent oil man of Kanatak in
inverting the east field dome or in
any attack upon the ability of Mr.
Jack Mason.
Jack Mason assisted by his broth
er Fred has explored and prospected
this district for the last fifteen years,
finding the first gold placers on the
Alaska Peninsula, at Katmai Bay. He
has, and is working hard on the de
velopment of this district and the
residents here are not in sympathy
with any contribution which might
hinder development.
We suggest that you inquire at
Morningside -to see if proper accom
modations may be found for this
■would-be prominent oil man of Kan
atak. We also presume that he left
his name and address, together with
his credentials from the many resi
dents at your office for future refer
ence, when you accepted this contri
bution for publication in which case
we trust you will forward him a copy
of your paper after printing this in
your first issue.
CITIZENS OF KANATAK,
P. S.—If more particulars are need
's’ ed kindly notify postmaster at Ka
natak.
