BELIEVED HOFFMAN WILL
SUCCEED HARRY STASER
When ashed just before his depar
ture for Valdez as to who was slated
to be the successor of Deputy Mar
shal Harry I. Staser at Anchorage,
Marshal Harvey P. Sullivan stated
that he was not prepared to say at
this time who would be named.
However, much significance was
placed upon the fact that Deputy
Marshal Frank Hoffman of Matanuska
arrived in Seward Saturday evening
and was in session with Marshal Sul
livan. The consensus of opinion is
that Deputy Hoffman, who is now
serving as chief deputy interim, will
eventually succeed to the position per
manently.
Of the available eligibles for posi
tion of deputy marshal, Hoffman
readily ranks first due to his long and
splendid record as an officer and his
general popularity throughout the dis
trict. Following and among those who
have had previous experience as an
officer are Charles Watson, serving
at present jointly for the town of An
chorage and the U. S. marshal’s of
fice; Lew Powless, former chief of
police Anchorage, and Jack Chovin,
whose name has been mentioned as a
possibility on several occasions.
Just before departing for Anchorage
early Sunday morning on a freight
train, former Deputy Staser announc
ed; that he would force the entire mat
ter of his dismissal into the open, not
with a view to securing his position
again, but to vindicate himself, and
get the question of such summary
dismissals cleared up.
Under the supervision of C. H.
Holmes, bridge engineer, Alaska Rail
road, and Oscar Pearson, foreman, B.
B. crew No. 1, are engaged on the
Seward dock driving a number of cot
tonwood piles. It is stated cotton
wood piling gives much better ser
vice than spruce as the bitter bark is
discouraging to the appetites of tor
edos.
Engineer Holmes has a good size
crew at work at Big Willow river pre
paring for an 80 foot span across the
river. Work on this project was be
gun on November 27 and will be prob
ably completed by January 15.
