Jack Cameron, Dawsonian and
Fainbanks pioneer, is now living in
retirement in Aberdeen. He has a
few acres and a comfortable home
and is taking life easy in his declin
ing years. Cameron had one of the
richest claims on Cleary creek,
Fairbanks district, and mined out a
competence.
Alaskan products .shipped to the
states last month .had a value of
$1,833,442, according to the monthly
statement of commerce issued today
by Collector of Customs J. C.
McBride. The value of the products
was $550,137 more than that of
shipments made in January, 1925.
Except for fresh fish, products of
the fisheries industry showed a de
crease. Fresh halibut and salmon
shipments were somewhat larger.
Copper ore formed the bulk of last
month’s outgoing commerce. The
shipments totalled 7,289,123 pounds
with a declared value of $1,075,958.
There was also a drop in fur
values. This, however, was account
ed for by the failure to show any
shipments of fur seal skins made by
the government from the Pribilof!
Islands. These in January, 1925

The City of Juneau today officially
entered a protest against Juneau and
Alaska generally being branded as
vice-ridden and immoral in a reso
lution signed by Mayor J. J. Con
nors and all members of the City
Council, and in a telegram sent by
Mayor Connors to Senator Cummins,
Chairman of the Senate Judiciary
Committee.
The Council also objected to
Judge T. M. Reed and U. S. Attorney
A. G. Shoup being branded as in
league with law violators and urged
the confirmation of both as “honest,
capable and fearless officials.”
William Conley, of Valdez, re
ceived a letter on the last boat from
Jacob Menchel, who is now at the
Morningside Sanitarium. Jake says
he is very comfortable and that the
weather is fine, with the grass green
and flowers in bloom, but he would
like to be back in Valdez just the
same. He sends regards to all his
friends in Valdez.
The many Alaska friends of Dr.
Charles Daggett will be interested in
knowing that he has decided to es
tablish a dental clinic at Oakland
Cal., having recently', taken the Cal
ifornia state board examination and
been granted a license to practice
dentistry in that state.
Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Knapp, of Anch
orage, are the proud parents of a
big, bouncing baby boy born last
week at the Government hospital at
Anchorage. Mother and son are do
ing nicely, reports Dr. A. D. Haver
stock who was in attendance.
Mike Knowles came in to Valdez
last week from Teikhel driving his
dog team in which is included a fine
black wolf. Mike says he caught
the animal last spring when a pup
and since that time he has been
training it to usefulness. The an
imal works as well in harness as
the dogs, and to his master yields
the same obedience and affection
as the other animals of the team.
To strangers, however, he still dis
plays some of his native savagery.
.Mr. Knowles says that despite
the mild winter there is lots of
snow on the summit, apparently as
much as normally there at this
time of the year. He also says that
the snowfall at Teikhel has been
considerably heavier than at Valdez.
Swan Peahson and a crew of 20
men left Seattle recently to resume
work at the mine at Tokeen.
The Lomen Reinde.er Company re
cently killed 1,000 reindeer at Nome
and 4,000 at Golovin. The carcasses
will be shipped south on the first
steamer, next June.

British experts have made a list

Fred Beauvais, former Indian
guide friend of Mrs. “Fifi” Stillman,

jwho had begun to fear that we should
hear no more of that racy romance
may be reassured.

Looking Ahead !
Alaskan progress of the past forecasts the future greatness of
the Northfland, and justifies all Alaskans in holding to their firm faith
in the Territory's possibilities and worth. By aiming high and
working together—actively and steadily—those having to do with
Alaskan progress can accomplish much. Looking ahead to still
greater things, and planning and working accordingly, is the one
way that a high purpose can be realized.
The Alaska Railroad—a pioneer system—is gradually and pains
takingly striding towards a great goal—the greater development of
Alaska; and, that the future is bright and promising is attested by
the steady and consistent upward trend of past and present activi
ties. The Alaska Railroad is “Looking Ahead.”
