Alaskan progress of the past forecasts the future greatness of
the Northland, and Justifies all Alaskans in holding to their firm
faith in the Territory’s possibilities and worth. By aiming high and
working together—actively and steadily—those having to do with Al
askan progress can accomplish much. “Looking Ahead” to still great
er things, and planning and working accordingly, is the one way that
a high purpose can be realized.
The Alaska Railroad—a pioneer system—is gradually and pain
stakingly striding towards a great goal—the greater development of
Alaska; and that the future is bright and promising is attested by
the steady and consistent upward trend of past and present activi
ties. The Alaska Railroad is “Looking Ahead.”

For Further Information
Inquire of the Driver
The February trip of the steamer
Starr brought to Belkofsky 15 natives
from False Pass and Morzoroi. And
the following week four were married
by Reverend Hotovitsky. After the
ceremony they were given a big time
two dances being held at which re
freshments consisting of cake, ice
cream, cocoa and tea was served by
the Belkofsky Native Club. The
string band did its best to make
everyone happy and from all reports
they succeeded.
Captain O. A. Johansen, genial
commander of the S. S. Starr, was
invited to take part in the marriage
ceremonies as best man but owing
to the general rush of shoving cargo
ashore and attending his regular
duties he was compelled, much to
his regret, to turn the offers down.
Mr. Beck, superintendent of the
government school, Bureau of Edu
cation, met the Reverend Hotovitsky
and together the school was inspect
ed and acquaintance made with the
teachers and pupils. It was his
first visit and he made the most of
it. Mr. Beck also visited the mach
ine shop, thence the church and var
ious homes.
At 4:30 o’clock the natives were
called to a special meeting and at
this time Reverend Hotovitsky took
the opportunity of having Mr. Beck
personally meet everyone. Mr. Beck
very kindly took the time to make an
address and in part he said, “I "was
proud to see your children, your
school and yourselves in so excel
lent a condition.”
The main question regarding the
reindeer question was settled and
the Belkofsky natives have decided
to purchase from Ugashek 30 deer
this summer and place them on Deer
Island which belongs to St. Nicholas
Brotherhood at Belkofsky. Mr. Beck
promised to give his best assistance
in the transfer of the animals.
After the meeting both gentlemen
left on the S. S. Starr, Mr. Beck for
Perry where he has many details in
the village, and Reverend Hotovitsky
for Seward.
In the March mail, the natives of i
Belkofsky received a considerable |
amount ot money from the disposal
Oi their fur catch. This fur, which
was handled by Reverend Hotovitsky 1
■was sent to the Bureau of Education,
thence to Tacoma where it was sold.
Red fox brought $25 and mink were
sold at $21. it is stated traders -who
called at that region offered the na
tives considerable less for the fur.
Mr. Morgan, superintendent of the
P. A. cannery for the last 15 years,
accompanied by Mrs. Morgan, have
arrived at King Cove and have al
ready put a large number of natives
to work in the plant..
