PEONAGE IS PRACTICED
IN ALASKA CANNERIES
“If the facts were known concerning the
peonage practiced in some of the Southeast
ern Alaska canneries the exposure would be
r ::a- a national scandal,” said A. B. Calla
ham of Juneau, who was in Seattle buying
a plant to begin the publication of a weekly j
newspaper in the Alaska capital, to a Post- :
Intelligencer reporter. Mr. Call ah am. for- |
nicrly of Seattle, was for a time editor of j
the Alaska Daily Dispatch.
“Probably some Seattle people remember
the case of one Ito, a Japanese cannery
boss employed in a Dundas bay plant, who
is under sentence of death at Juneau for 1
the murder of a Japanese cannery hand," i
said Mr. Callaham. “It is not generally
known that the Japanese who was killed |
was one who had expressed dissatisfaction '
over his contract with the cannery. The
Japanese was visited one night by Ito and .
two helpers, called out, and while the two j
helpers held him. Ito took his life with a
J .ng sword.
Fishermen Witness Murder
‘•This case would never have come to i
light, in all probability, had not some fish
ermen who happened to be in the bay at
the time seen the killing and reported it. '
It is the general impression in the North j
that the penalty f >r dissatisfaction with '
these cannery contracts is death.”
The terms of the contract signed by the
fourteen Filipino workmen with a cannery
at Petersburg. Mr Call ah am says, are a du- 1
plicate of those in use in many other can- j
neries in Alaska.
“This whole situation calls for a federal 1
investigation." he said. “The laborers are J
hired on the outside by a Chinese contractor. ;
who deals with the white superintendent of .
the cannery. Under this white superinten
dent is a foreman, usually a Chinese or a
Japanese, who is assisted by a Chinese boss, j
The owners of the cannery perhaps know j
very little of the way the labor is handled. |
The laborers, however, are forced to sign a !
contract under which they must work every :
day during the six months’ season; if called |
upon, they must work throughout the twen- ;
tv-four hours. In case of sickness or dis
ability, the men are docked 25 cents an i
hour. Such unfair treatment would ordi- |
narily call for protest when fully realized by i
the men, but the penalty of protest under
the contract is the forfeiture of the season's
pay. Sometimes, as in the case of the Jap
anese killed by Ito, the actual penalty is
death.
Cannery Villages Insanitary
“These cannery villages are indescribably j
cheerless and insanitary. No one lives in
them but the men employed around the |
cannery. There is no doctor, no hospital, I
no church. All this is bad for the men. J
“These cannery hands during the season j
get nothing to eat in many cases but rice j
without salt, no meat of any kind, not even |
fish. And for all this hardship they leave j
the cannery at the end of the season with
out a cent of remuneration. The money
is lost to them in various fines assessed.
The men cannot even leave the cannery ex
cept at the pleasure of their bosses, for the
only boats running to some of these can
neries are those owned by the cannery com
pany.
Federal Supervision Urged
“The United States can, without a cent
of expense, supervise the signing of these
■workmen and have them paid off before
the United States shipping commissioner.
The whole business is a fit subject for gov
ernment inquiry.
“It should be understood that not only
Japanese. Chinese and Filipinos, but also
white boys and men suffer from the peon
age practiced in some of these Northern
canneries.”
DEFECTS IN THE REVENUE LAWS
Territorial Government Seems to Be “Up
a Tree" in Efforts to Remedy Them
The governor of Alaska has laken up with
Delegate James Wiekersh am ami Senator
Key Pittman <>f Nevada, chairman of the
senate committee on territories, the ques
tion of securing from congress an amend
ment to the organic act, establishing legis
lative government in Alaska, designed to
cure the defects in the operation of the
revenue laws of the territory that were dis
closed by the ruling of the attorney general
and the decision of the circuit court of
appeals. The condition in which the opin
ion and t he dec ision have left the territorial
government has been set out in detail. He
has not yet received replies from either of
the members of congress. He also has in
formed the members of the legislature of
the situation, and consulted with them con
cerning the proper course to pursue.
Following the receipt of the recent opin
ion of the attorney general, the governor
sent a telegram to each of the members
of the legislature, notifying them that the
attorney general held that the legislature
exceet led its powers in placing the duty of
collecting taxes on federal officials, and that
this opinion in effect absolutely stopped fur
ther collection of revenue and practically
puts the Territory of Alaska out of busi
ness The message also asked each mem
ber for his opinion on the advisability of
holding a special session to correct the rev
enue laws.
Answers have been received from all the
members except Senators Elwood Bruner,
Henry Roden, Conrad breeding and Repre
sentative R. D. Gray. There is a decided
difference of opinion on the advisability of
holding the session. All of the members
of the Fourth division that have been heard
from declared that it would be impossible
to attend until summer. Representative C.
I,. Kennedy of Candle, who lives the farthest
away, says he will come if necessary, and
Representatives Thomas Gaffney, F. A. Aid
rich and C. D. Jones said that they would
try to come. All of the members of the
Third division except Representative Gray
declared their willingness to attend. There
would be no trouble in getting the full
representation from the First division, but
all do not favor the special session. Rep
resentative Charles E. Ingersoll states that
he is not in favor of a special session, but
rather inclined to have congress pass a
special amendment covering the defects.
Representative Arthur G Shoup and Sen
ator L. V. Ray are both of the opinion that
the fifteen days allowed by the organic act
for special sessions would not suffice to do
the necessary work.

J
The term, “a typical sourdough,” has be
come a hackneyed expression, but no other
phrase so fitly describes Gordon Betties, who
was a business visitor in Iditarod this week.
Brimming over with optimism and an en
ihusiastie booster for the great Kuskokwim
valley, in which he makes his home, this
pioneer Alaskan, ex-printer, newspaper pub
lisher, trader, trapper, hard rock miner and
traveler, descended on this peaceful burg
last Monday afternoon, and from that min
ute until his departure, on Wednesday
evening, there was not a dull minute for
his many friends and acquaintances in this
city.
Mr. Betties has been in Alaska for twenty
five years, and during that period has vis
ited almost every section of the territory,
| His present home is at Kolmakoffsky, on I
the Kuskokwim, where he is engaged in the
! development of what he claims is the only
nickel cobalt mine in the United States, and
in which he believes he has a veritable bo
nanza which, when developed, will make
the operations of the Guggenheims pale
into insignificance. He expects to ship
some ore the coming season and expend the
proceeds in a visit to the Panama-Pacific ex
position at San Francisco, and he invites
all old sourdoughs who happen to be finan
cially embarrassed at that time to step over
to the Kuskokwim. take out a ton or two
of the ore, cash it in and use the proceeds
in like manner. There is plenty for all of
them, he says.
A Nickel-Cobalt Mine
Mr. Betties’ prospect, which is located 18
miles from Kolmakoffsky, in what are
known as the Russian mountains, consists
of a five-foot fissure vein, said by him
to be the only one he has seen in Alaska,
carrying ore of the same nature as that
mined at Cobalt, Ontario. He says it is
| the only mineral of this nature found in
the I'nited States, and that it is equal to
j if not superior to that of the Ontario camp,
from one of whose mines the sum of $9S,
000,000 has been taken in seven years. An
assay from the surface showing, made in
Nome by \ oil, showed values of $519, not
including the cobalt. Mr. Betties brought
to I litarod samples of ore taken from a 15
foot shaft which he says shows values in
cobalt as high as 27 per cent. The property
has been known for several years, and at j
one time “Cinnabar” McDonald owned an !
interest in it. The lead crops out for 6,000
feet on the surface. There are sixteen
inches of ore on the hanging wall, showing
very little quartz, as the ore runs in cry.-'
tallite. The hanging wall is of granite and
the foot wall of diorite. He has seven
tons of the ore sacked ready for shipment
on the first boat in the spring, which was
mined from the 15-foot shaft.
May Be Valuable Mine
Experienced quartz miners in Iditarod
who have examined the ore brought in by
Mr. Betties are very much interested in it,
and tests will be made of it to determine
its contents. If the tests bear out the indi
cations it is believed that Mr. Betties has
a valuable proposition. Samples will be
sent to Seattle for assay, and the returns
will be awaited with much interest. What
ever the ore may turn out to be, miners
admit that it has every appearance of value.
C bait is a mineral substance much used
to give a permanent blue color to glass
and enamels upon metals, porcelains and
earthenwares, and is used in the manufac
ture of fine steel products. It is said to
be worth in the neighborhood of $2.50 per
pound.
Marvel Creek Looking Good
Mr. Betties says that Marvel creek, near
Aniak, in which many Iditarod citizens are
interested, is locking good. He expects to
see. with an average fall of water this sum
mer, at least $200,000 taken out there.
I
Visitors to the Kuskokwim this winter,
among them A1 Walsh, who has recently
returned from the reputed strike at Kkiwli,
have been much interested in an old Rus
sian located at KolmakofTsky. This old
man, who cannot speak a word of English,
is said to have come to Alaska as a Rus
sian official in 1837, and when the govern
ment was turned over to the United States
he remained here. In spite of his age, he
retains till his faculties, is clear of eye and
intelligent, and retains the courtly manner
of an educated Russian gentleman.
When the United States assumed the gov
ernment of Alaska, the Russian official,
Nicolai Andreanoff by name, became a
trader and acquired a large influence over
the natives. He married a native woman
and reared a large family. Wonderful tales
are told of the enormous quantities of valu
able skins handled by him in early days,
and of the princely establishment he main
tained. During all these years, and up to
the present day, he has kept a diary, but
as it is written in Russian, and as there
■are few persons in the neighborhood with
sufficient education to translate it, it is
possible that these valuable memoirs may
be lost.
In recent years the old gentleman has
fallen upon evil days. His descendants
have all intermarried with natives and
adopted native customs, which allow the
old and infirm to shift for themselves, and
he has become a charge upon the charitably
disposed white people. It has been sug
gested that steps be taken to have him
sent to the Pioneers' home at Sitka, and
this will probably be done if the means for
his removal can be secured.
MUTCHLER BANKRUPTCY CASE
At the afternoon session of court yester
day the matter of Jake Mutchlcr, bankrupt, ,
was taken up, and after a short hearing
Judge Fuller denied the petition for dis
charge. The bankrupt asked that he be
discharged from bankruptcy, but a number
of Iditarod creditors have objected to the
allowance of the petition, and t He* matter
was put over until such time as all parties
can be heard.
The petitioner was adjudicated bankrupt
on August 1 of last year, and as the
estate paid no dividends, a number of cred
itors are anxious that no discharge be
granted until such time as a thorough in
vestigation can be made. - l airbanks Times.

That will be run on St. Patrick's day.
Hen* is to the people of Fairbanks
You are invited to visit our homo.
We have own extended our invitations
To that far off city of Nome.
Now when von get to Iditarod,
Inn't do things by halves.
First visit all tie- laundries
And den to do Krosby Bails.
Some people will walk in at night,
And others next day will ride.
But if you want something nice to make
a light.
Just use that Hamilton carbide.
Then* will be a big crowd in Iditarod:
J am thinking tlnuv will be an awful Jam,
For some will r une in two-lioi -e wagons
Ami oiliers will come on tin* tram.
IT St. Patrick's day would come in mid
summer,
People would not have to travel rough
roads,
F.-r s'-nn- could conn* in gasoline launches,
While others could come in boat ioads.
1 hope everything will be satisfactory,
And no si. Patrick's day there wilfln* a
feast.
For tin- Iditarod .Market has brought from
the barge Trinder
Twenty tons of nice fresli meat.
!n this Iditarod City
F very thing is most gloriously fair
You ran waik up to the wireless station
Ami talk to tin* pe< pie through the air.
After tin* dog race is over.
And everything is calm and cool,
Just walk in the cigar and book stores
And then play a game of pool.
'"in,* people are talking about the ball,
Ami o\ it tin* race s urn* rave,
Put i ejiiember, don’t go to either one
(Hie." you are jf.rc.-hly shaved.

Marry everything nice and new.
IToin . wiling suit to < veralls.
Right down to rubber shoes.
S inic people have nuggets from flat creek.
And .''.me have nuggets from Moore,

No matter what kind or clothes you wear.
Just so they are nhv and neat.

Where j u can get something nice to eat.

Raised right here in this town.

And the way some people do,
Don't think the whole program
Must be filtered just for you.
If you go to the ball.
And leave some of the folks at home,
And if you want to talk with them,
Just use the telephone.
If you are walking down the street
And feel like you want to yell.
Take my advice and be a little quiet,
And get a room in some hotel.
IT your head should get muddled,
And get so you can't think.
There are four or live saloons in this town
Go in and have a drink.
When you got tired or enjoying yourseir
And Teel a little bit sor(\
Just walk straight down the street,
And there you will llnd a nice, big gun
store.

You had better not get too raw.
For we have a F. s. deputy marshal here
To make you respect the. law.
ir next morning you should have to be In
court,
Say about hair-past nine.
And thi' judge should take a notion, we will
say.
To give you a ilve-hundred-dollar line,
Be mum on that subject.
‘let some nice lawyer to state vour case
Let him explain to the judge
iliat you lost all your money on the

Wp ail live In Iditarod
Because the town looks good
Wo may not have a coal-yard,
Bui we can always get plenty or wood.
It' you have something to tell the people
And you are afraid everybody can't hear'
bo into the newspaper ofllee
And have it printed in The Pioneer.
Good luck To the people in this eitv_
Good luck to the folks, i say;
Good lurk to all who will celebrate
Bear old St. Patrick’s day.
Here is lurk to all the people,
And every creeping Ihing under the sun

And malice toward none.

DANIEL GUGGENHEIM
HAS ADVANCED THEORIES
New York, Feb. lb. Daniel Guggen
heim, one of the family of capitalists, min
ing and smelting magnates, in an interview
which is published in the metropolitan pa
eprs, says the government can undoubt
edly successfully operate the railroads, the
telephones ami telegraphs of the country,
and he thinks that it Would be a decided
benefit to the country if they would.
The statements assigned to the smelter
king have created considerable interest in
the city. One paper takes the matter un
der serious consideration, and wants to an
swer the question put to Mr. Guggenheim,
“And why not the mines and smelters as
well?”
Many of the prominent men in financial
and industrial circles are becoming inter
ested in the husject of government owner
ship, but none lias spoken so freely and
favorably on the subject as has Daniel
Guggenheim.
STORY OF EARTHQUAKE
AS TOLD CY TOURIST
Tokyo, Feb. IS.—-Latest advices from
Kagoshima, the scene of the recent volcanic
eruption say there is great suffering in t.ie
entire action, for it has been found im
possible to give shelter or food to the thou
sands who lu.-t their homes.
A tourist who had been visiting Kago
shima prior to the earthquakes and erup
tion VI* of the thtilling experience* of
those v ho were tit the heart of t: e (its- |
turban:c*. Several days before the actual
eruption batiks of smoke were observed
rising from the gullies at the base > hat
urajima. Then ugly roars were h- ..r.l and |
it was thought it must be Kirishima "f j
some other volcano on the rampare But
streaks of smoke became huge volumes en
veloping the whole mountain side dispelled
this idea.
“Presently, at the edge of thp ascending
columns,” he continued, “we began to see
what looked like Brogdingnagian ro-ks
racing down the cliffs. Huge blocks were
thrown upward anti outward, ultimately
floating down, the great comet-like tails
of smoke oozing out behind.
“The villagers of Sakura rushed to the
boats. Children and bundles were tossed
in together pell-mell, Hie bay was dotted
with innumerable flotillas. More than ten
persons were killed or injured. Soon light
ning anti thunder came, and as the sub
terranean fires gathered force, the dull
growling grew into a monotonous roar.
This, with the incessant crashing of rocks,
shattered our nerves. We decided to ad
journ to a tea house on the platform
above.
‘■Just as we were settling down on our
Japanese beds the biggest earthquake we
ever experienced drove us into the open.
We spent the night squatting on mats un
der the stars. The din w'as terrific, the
burning mountain terrible, the dust an
abomination.
“The next day we moved three miles far
ther off. Fires were raging and villages
w’ere annihilated. The ground on which
we stood burned.
“Mitake peak remains intact, but cannot
last long. Half of this mountain is bound
to go up in smoke.”
The American Peace Society of Japan
has issued an appeal to the people of the
United States for contributions to relieve
the sufferers.

i occasion of the passage of the Alaska rail- :
! road bill by the United States senate, the
following telegram was ordered sent to Del
j egate Wickersham at Washington:
' “Resolutions adopted ' at mass meeting 1
thanking vo uand others for good work
in passage of railroad bill. Convey same j
to President and Chamberlain especially." :
Find on Timber Creek
Timber creek is the latest to give up its
golden treasure, and it is said to look as if
the gold was to be had in well-paying 1
quantities.
Henry Wagner, who but recently went
from here on a trip to Flat creek, a tribu- ;
tary of Timber, arrived at Long recently,
bringing the news tout Billy O'Connor and ;
Jack O’Mclia, who have been prospecting 1
on Timber for some time past, had bed- i
rocked a hole some distance below Flat !
creek, in which they have pay, but the
actual worth of the gravel Mr. Wagner did
not know. The prospectors stated they had
pay in the hole, but would not say how
good.
The find on Timber creek has created a
little excitement in the vicinity of Poor
man creek. Timber is a large creek, and
should it prove to carry money for its
entire length, it is predicted that it will be
a hummer.
Commercial Club Organized
Wi-.h a spirit of good cheer and prom
ised prosperity, now that a railroad is
assured us, those assembled to thank all I
who aided in the passage of the railroad ,
bill, after disposing of the matter for which i
the meeting was called, resolved to organ
ize a commercial body representative of the
town of Ruby.
The matter was taken hold of with a j
whoop, and if enthusiasm spells success, j
there is not the slightest doubt about the
future of the new organization—-the Ruby
Commercial Club, The officers chosen were 1
as follows President, A1 Birnbaum; vice
president, A. J. Day; secretary, J. C. Mur- '
phy; treasurer. T. J. DeVane.
One of the first and most important j
duties to claim the attention of the new ‘
organization is that of collecting data and
forwarding the same to the proper officials,
setting forth the claim of Ruby as the j
Yukon terminal. This subject, it was t
shown, is one that should receive the un- |
divided attention of the people not only !
of this district, but Cripple, Ophir, Innoko,
Takotr.a and Iditarod should wake up and j
get busy.
