NAVIGATOR DRUGGIST
BOOSTS TitE HARBOR AT
ANCHORAGE ON THE INLET
A. H. McDonald, who returned to
Seward last night from the metropolis
of Cook Inlet, was given the following
\
write-up in the Aueho.
last Saturday:
Upon leaving Seward late last night
for Anchorage Captain Hansen, of the
freighter Skagway, commandeered A.
H. McDonald, navigator and druggist,
to assist in property handling the ex
tra large cargo billed to the Alaskan
Engineering commission and Anchor--.
age merchants. Mr. McDonald is
equally at home on the deck of a
steamer as he is in selling pink pills
to pale people. He belongs tp the
Alaska Steamship company and the
Rexall people; both claim him, as
does Seward, although Mr. McDonald
is vitall/ interested in the commercial
ifc of Anchorage, where he owns a
model drug store, of which the Seward
stole is a branch.
Complimenting Captain Hansen as
a master mariner and a master host,
Mr. McDonald, in mentioning the
pleasant sea voyage, stated that it was
gratifying to watch the big freight**
tie np at the ocean dock. Mr. McDon
ald has always been decidedly firm in
his convictions that the plans for the
government harbor and dockage facil
ities were entirely feasible, and this
morning he predicted that it was only
a (giestion of construction of the pres
ent constructs program as now un
def way by the Alaskan Engineering
commission until the local harbor
would be adequate for the use of the
largest steamers.
