each member expressed his opinion
as to the time. By tfcese months it
is hoped to discourage the practice
of periodical trappers, who have
hitherto invaded the lines of those
who have established cabins and
trap regularly, and of whom much
complaint has been voiced with re
spect to abuses of the fur regula
tions, especially providing an agen
cy for the bootlegging of pelts tak
en during closed seasons. It is be
lieved that all complaints will be
removed and that it will be possible
to trap all varieties of fur. until
there is evidence of decimation to
the danger point, when it will be
necessary to close certain districts
to all trapping for a reasonable
period.
Of the 18 members out of a mem
bership of 200 who attended the
meeting, only three might be said
to have passed their 40th year. It
developed that many of the mem
bers have their wives with them on
the trap lines, have established
•cosy little homes, with gardens and
flowers, and have in turn establish
ed new bases of civilization in the
| wilderness. In addition, nearly
; every trapper of the upper Cook
Inlet country, either owns a gas
boat or an outboard motor craft,
Lee Harpole, relief lighthouse
keeper for various Alaska stations,
is a recent arrival from Anchorage.
He has been at Unamik Island for
some time, on relief duty while the
regular keepers took a well-earned
vacation, and arrived at Anchorage
on the lighthouse tender Cedar. Mr.
Harpole goes out on the Admiral
Evans to Cordova, on his way to
Cape Hinchinbrook where he will
relieve the present keepers for
about eight months.
Mr. Harpole stated he thought
the lighthouse tender Cedar, Capt.
J. W. Ledbetter, would arrive in the
Port of Seward Thursday, south
bound.

Thus the trapping business has
reached the dignity of other lines
of commercial endeavor, and with
the coming of youth has come a
spirit calculated to remove much of
the stigma that faas once attached
to the bearded recluse of the wil
derness.
It is estimated that pelts of the
value of a quarter million dollars
pass thru Anchorage annually, and
the influence of this industry is felt
in almost every line of business.
With a live, energetic organiza
tion, the Cook Inlet Trappers &
Game Protection Association, hope
to make their presence felt with re
spect to the rules and regulations
effecting their business.
