ILIUMNI DISTRICT IS
UNCHANGED SINCE DAYS
OF HUSSi REGIME
Strang© as it may seem, local arri
vals from Iliamna the past week, de
cry the fact that conditions in some
respects in that region have not been
advanced with the natural growth of
the country. Particularly in the mat
ter of roads. And this, it ds said, with ,i
all respect to The Alaska Road Com- \
mission.
The same as 20 years ago, and even j
many years before that, the same rate i
for .packing in supplies exist, 10 cents
■a pound for the short pack from Iliam
na bay to Iliamna village. This is due
entirely, it was stated, to the fact th©
trail will not permit a wagon or auto
truck to run over it, a distance of
approximately 10 miles.
A crew works on the trail almost
every year but their combined efforts
does little due to climatic conditions
and the region traversed. A good sub
stantial roadbed would wipe out all
ddificulties encountered todate and
would immediately serve to have all
supplies, and these are considerable,
routed through the Port of Seward in
stead of the long round-about trip,
through Bristol Bay, thence up the
river.
!
NEW CHATANIKA TOWN
The old townsite of Chatanika is
'now almost a thing of the pa*; say
i
arrivals in town from the Interior.
This is due to the big construction1
jwork under way by the Fairbanks
! Exploration company. But a new and
modern town has been built to which
practically all of the owners of build
ings in the former townsite have
moved.
a. h. McDonald returns
A. H. Me Donald, prominent busi
; ness man of Anchorage, who was
called to Seattle some wreeks ago on
account of his brother Sam, a former
i business man of Seward, returned on
the S. S. Alaska last evening.
Hans Severson, who conducts a
trading post at Iliamna, is now at
Bristol bay, making preparations to
bring up the river his winter sup.ply
of groceries and general merchan
dise, local arrivals report.
The Lake Clark boys, Brown Carl
son, Doc Dutton and Joe Keckley, are
getting ready for the coming trapping
season, Seward arrivals from Iliamna
bring word, and are looking forward
to a good season.
TIME FOR CELEBRATION
j Next April is the approximate date
set for completion and turning water
on in the big canal in the Fairbanks
I country, local arrivals bring word.
SMITH AI^D FRISBY GUIDES
Seward arrivals from the Susitna
region, bring word that Smith and Fri
by, the two well known trappers and
guides, have conducted a number of
fine hunts this year and are doing
real well. Charlie Smith and Jack
Frisby are two of the best known old
timers of the country and it is said
if they can not find bear and sheep for
their clients it isn’t in the cards for
anyone.
