A. N. B. OFFICERS
AT KAKE
Arthur Johnson, the corres
ponding secretary of the Kake
Camp, has sent in the follow
ing report:
“It took only the report from
the Klukwan convention to
add to our roll the names of
some of our most prominent
men. There were eight new
members joined in our last
meeting. Some of these men
did not have any inteiest in
Brotherhood work before. The
only thing that holds others of
the older people from joining
now is the terrible misfortune
they faced in the fire.
The following are the new
officers of the camp:
Pres. Chas. S. Johnson.
Vice-Pres. Eddie Williams.
Cor. Sec. Arthur A. Johnson.
Bee. Sec. Walter Williams.
Fin. Sec. Paul Nannauck.
Treas. Chas. Skeek.
Serg’t-at-Arms, Dick Thomas.
Councilmen, Pat Cooday,
David Stuteen, Aaron Bean.
We sure had a red hot elec
tion. The campaign was pret
ty strong by all candidates for
each office.
Nearly all the houses that
are under construction will be
occupied before long; the peo
ple do not care about the cold
weather, they must have houses.

PACKERS PLEASE TEEL US
Will some of those cannery
men who came North at the
close of the campaign to aid
in defeating Sutherland and
the rest of the Republican
ticket in the First Division be
cause these candidates were
opposed to the trap monopoly
please tell a listening popula
tion which is the sounder in
vestment—canneries in Alaska
or in British Columbia.
If the Alaskan investment is
a better stabalized and better
dividend paying proposition
than similar investment in Bri
tish Columbia canneries that
might be a good reason fov
their antagonism to Sutherland
and his ticket but if the con
verse should be the case and
