(Juneau Dispatch)
The organization at an early mo
ment of a home guard, to be composed I
of men too old to take an active part (
in a military company, was the gener
al topic of discussion yesterday among
many of the city’s business men.
The idea suggested itself to H. It.
Shepard, agent of Grand Trunk Line
and yesterday he interviewed a num-!
ber of persons all of whom were en
thusiastic over the matter.
“While a number of us old fellows
are too advanced along life’s high
| way to take up arms as members of a ;
'military organization, we could render
j valuable aid and assistance, is occa
I sion arose, in the quelling of any out
breaks or disturbances in the city and
! all of us are enthusiastic over the pro-1
| position of creating a home guard,”
said Hhepard yesterday.
“Everyone to whom I have mention
ed the matter is of the opinion that j
(the movement is a wise one and I have j
I called a meeting at my office this ev
I ening at eight o’clock when the matter j
| will be discussed,” stated Shepard.

NOME.—A letter received by a lady j
her contains many items of interest j
to old timers. A. J. Beecher, formerly i
a stenographer here, is now president j
of a brokerage company at Oatman, j
Arizona, with offices in Los Angeles, j
He deals mostly in Arizona gold and |
| copper stocks.
| Connected with the “Oatman Reven
j ue Mines Co.” as president is W. H.
Dohrman who from 1899 to 1903 was
manager of the mining interests of
the old A. E. Co. Beecher is secre
tary of this company and Pete Over
field is one of the directors. He was
in Fink’s law offices and was a good
mixer while here being a patron of
sports. His name appears on the
: prospectus as “Hon. P. D. Overfield,;
* late United States district judge of
Alaska, now of Oatman.”

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.—That!
Ketchikan has won its fight against,
Prince Rupert as a fish center is now
a matter of certainty, Sir Cecil Spring
Rice, the British ambassador to the'
United States, having advised Ottawa
to make it necessary for the Grand
Trunk railroad to discontinue its ex
clusive concessions to the Prince Ru
pert fish houses which, it is claimed,
are mining the Ketchikan fish indus- j
try. More than that, i.t may be said j
that an agreement has now probably
been made for the Grand Trunk to op
erate a steamship from Prince Rupert
to Ketchikan to take care of the Amer
ican catch.
The advice to Ottawa was sent by'
the ambassador after he had a confer- :
ence with Secretary Redfield of the de-!
partment of commerce about the pend
ing congressional legislation prohibit
ing the importation of fish from Can
ada, fresh or frozen, except under cer
tain restrictions, and rehabilitating 1
American salmon industry on the Pa- i
cific coast. Canada desires to avoid
this prohibitory legislation and has '
expressed its willingness through the I
British ambassador to make conces-;
sions, so that the matter will end as j
indicated here.
