LOUIS HANSON, Proprietor
with Mr. Sprague on an intermitant
salary which has Jjfbt amounted to
$1,000 in three years, yet with a de
termination that it was on the right
track at last, the Club has demonsra
trated beyond a doubt that salmon and
other fish will thrive in the streams
and lakes along the coast from which
fish have heretofore not existed owing
to natural barriers at the mouths or
in the course of the streams preventing
their ascention. Not only do the fish
grow as rapidly as could be expected
in any waters suited to them, but
when placed there, either in the eyed
stage near hatching time, or as fry.
having no enemies in larger fish to con
tend with, practically all of them live
and grow to the stage that when re
leased to go to the ocean they have
net lost their sense ojf self preserva
tion as have the hand raised hatchery
fry, but are larger enough to battle
successfully with their still numerous
enemies of the deep. "I can hold sal
mon fryin these barren lakes at a very
small expense, since they feed them
selves, until they are a foot or more
in lengthe, and save 85 or 90 percent
of the fry hatched." said Mr. Sprague,
in discussing the method being dem
onstrated by the Club.
The Club’s plans have included the
removal of obstructions from the num
erous streams up which salmon can not
go to spawn, the planting of eyed eggs
in the sands and gravels where they
may hatch naturally,, the protection of
all salmon spawning grounds from
birds of prey , trout, and other enemies
of the salmon spawn and young fry, as
well as investigations into the habits
of halibut, herring and other fish with
the hopes that remedial measures may
be taken for their protection and great
er increase; but the wherewithal in the
shape appropriations have not been
forthcoming. The Club has however,
made a start. It is in no wise a politi
cal body, but is composed of 500 and
more of Alaska's leading citizens. Any
and all others who are interested in
conserving and increasing the fish in
Alaska, her greatest of all resources,
are ivited to join the Club, and put
their houlders to the wheel.

NAVY SELLS GREAT
RADIO TO FRANCE
(Bseten Traveler)
Practical demobilization of alt the
United States naval establishment In
European waterg; the sale of the great
Lafayette wireless station at Bordeaux
o the French government at a price of
approximately, $4,000,000, and many
hitherto unpublished facts of Ameri
can naval activities in the war were
i announced here today by Assistant
Secretary Roosevelt, wh - arrivod with
President Wilson on the George W h
i ington.
For the last month 1r. Roosevelt
:has been in Europe cl ■ boilizing the
naval forces, liquidating contracts and
settling claims. Good p ogress was
made in all of the work he s id, and
the British and French governments
have met the United States half-way
in the settlements of claims and dis
posal of material.
U. S. Mine Barrage
On the trip over Mr. Roosevelt dis
closed to the officers and men of the
George Washington, hew the United
States had spent more than $30,000,
000 laying the mine barrage against
submarines in the North sea and how
by the navy offensive which the Unit
ed States brought into the war. the
submarines were driven away from the
coasts, away from harbor mouths, out
to sea, where their deadly work
would be more difficult, and how the
entry of the navy into the war ini
tiated an effective campaign against
the U-boats, which theretofore had
conducting the offensive.
“Few realize,’’ said Mr. Roosevelt,
"that the American navy had 54 shore
bases of various kinds in European
waters and the Azores, including de
stroyer stations and mine laying bas
es. although the majority were naval
been conducted the offensive.
200 American airplanes operated. We
had more than 70.000 men at these
bases and on the ships operating from
them.
Sell Great Radio
All material of future value has been
sent home. Portable houses, provi
sions and motor trucks have been sold
to the Red Cress and the army and
what remained of lumber and other
salvage material has been sold to the
British and French governments.
“The great Lafayette radio station
near Bordeaux was intended to Insure
communictien between Washington
and the army and navy in case the
cable system was put out of commis
sion or interfered with by the German
submarines. It had eight towers and
could communicate with the United
States day and night. It was built by
the navy. I rranged with the French
"government that we shall complete the
station, which is two-thirds finished,
rnd they will then take it over at
what it costs us. about f 22.0QC.OOO"
One must hope that their oid jobs
have been kept for the army of doi
!ar-a-ye?r men who are about to be
demobilized.
It will be ^oma little time before
old conditions are sufficiently approx
1 imated to permit rer'erence to a mil
lion dollars as a large sum of money.
