THE FUR CATCH
OF THE INTERIOR
Recent reports received from Fair

of the fur situation as follows:
The fur season for the lower river
country is looking bright, accord
ing to F. C. Irons, game warden who
returned recently from Mlnto after a
ten days' tour of the wood camps. In
dian villages and trading posts on the
Tanana.
Particularly ca nthis be said of
mink, lynx and fox. which are report
ed to be very plentiful. The natives
who came out from the smaller side
streams of the Tanana to attend the
potlatches and holiday feasts along
the river say that the season will be
a record-breaker, so far as catch is
concerned. Marten are not very plen
tiful this year, and only a few such
furs have been brought to the traders
so far this winter.
Game is scarce between here and
Eenana, and very little has been
killed, reports the game warden. No
violations of the game law were no
ticed on the trip of the territorial of
ficial.
One silver gray fox was reported to
have been trapped a short time ago
farther down the river than Minto, but
Irons did not see the fur. He was
told by the traders and trappers that
there are an exceedingly large number
of cross foxes this year.

HIGH OFFICIALS
PASS WESTWARD
P. W. Baxter, Vice President of the
Alaska Steamship Company, and Si
las Corser. the new superintendent of
the Copper River and Northwestern
railroad, are aboard the Northwestern
enrouto to Cordova. ,
The principal missian of Mr. Bax
ter to the Westward is to gel some
first hand information in relation to
the blockade on the Copper River and
Northwestern, which has necessitated
routing the mail for Interior Alaska
points via Valdez and the overland
trail.
IVir. LOTHUr, WIIU nuuuucuro ucv/iftv
Geiger as superintendent, has been
connected with the road since its in
ception and is very familiar with the
difficulties to be overcome.
Mr. Baxter says that his company
forfeits $4,800 per year on their mail
contract by routing their Westward
line of steamers via Juneau and the
inside. The mail contract called for
an eight day schedule by the Outside
while by taken the inside route only
a ten-day schedule can be maintained.
Mr. Baxter says that the company
suffered this loss in order to give a
better service to Juneau. It is the
intention of Mr. Baxter to stop over
in Juneau on the return journey.
