SAYS “GOODBYE"
‘‘Montnun Pete’’ Farrell w:*.s ;i passenger
for the C week. He is g ng to ;
Vo.r ih Hwt Springs about seventy miles,
- ,uth( ‘,'t of Juneau, at which resort lie
hop?-, to recuperate his health, which has
been most unsatisfactory for several months
past. “Pete’ h one of the most widely
known characters in tlie North, and could
always be counted on to be “among th -
present’’ wherever there '.as been any mm
big excitement n the P tic Mope f',r
past tifty-one years. Mr k arrell landed a
San Francisco, a good chunk of a boy, m
1S63, and since that time he has never
been on the left limit of the Missouri river.
Owing to bad health. Pete has been un
able to do any good tor himself for some
months, and loyal frie ids on th
made it possible for the old-timer to go
j to the springs. Peter asks Tin* Pioneer to
express his heartfelt thanks to all the boys
for their splendid consideration.
HUERTA AND CALLAHAN “IN"
l Fairbanks News-Miner, July 201
Dan Callahan, who is leaving this even

cratic unpleasantness which occurs there
-non on the occasion of the Territorial con
vention, has had reason to believe that the
Democrats of Fairbanks who have not been
abstracting sustenance front the same nipple
that Dan enjoys have been wondering where
he is getting the money to finance his trip ,
to the C >a t. As he abhors secrecy of any
nature, especially in politics, when ap- ]
proached today Dan faddy told the scent
of his financial immensity He said:
"It's Callahan & Huerta. For a long

WOULDN'T LEAVE HIS DOG
A pathetic incident in connection with the
.'ailing of the White* Seal last night was
the devotion shown to his dog :>y John
Flam and, one of the poor unfortunates
whom Deputy Charles C taking to Ruby
for transfer to the sanatorium at Morning
side. A dog which has been his constant
companion i> the trail and in camp at the
different phe*s in Alaska where he had
worked until his mind gave way. followed
bin. on board the vessel, and the assur
ances of sympathizers that thev would take
good care of the animal would not induce
him to part with it. At one time he did
relent, on being assured that he would have
to part with his pet at Ruby in any event,
and consented to let Cyril Wood take him.
Mr. Wood’s assurance that the animal would
be well taken care of seemed to impress
him. But when the time came to part with
him. Flan1 and clung to his canine friend
with fierceness and refused to part with him.
The poor fellow is in the habit of talking
to his dumb friend just as one would to a
human being.
The launch Beaver arrived from Dike
man Tuesday.
The M. I. Washburn arrived Wednesday
with the large of rhe Cold Storage, com
pany. and leti Thursday for Dik.inan to
bring up a load of supplies for Riley &
Marston. She left this morning for Tanana.
The White Seal came up from Dikeman
Thursday morning.
The present high water makes the busi
ness outlook for the gasoline boat men
look pretty blue. The fact that the larger
vessel< are now able to reach Iditarod with
ease shuts them out entirely from making
the haul from Dikeman.
