 FUR KETCHIKAN

The fact that the New England Fish company, which has, for couple of years past had In contemplation the removal ol it's headquarters, together with it's eotire fishing plant, including It's large ocean going steamers from Vancouver to Ketchikan, is having 6 survey made preparatory to pertectipg title to forty acre tract here, may be accepted ss the best evidence that It has determined conclusively on making the long contemplated change of base. The change. if made, will make Keteh- lkau the center of very large fishing indus.ry-cne that will give regular employment to several hundred men, adding correspondinRly 10 tho industrial and commercial activity of the place. The company employs three large tugs which number is being added to, and its plant here will embrace treez- Ing, cold storage and other large bulld- ings essential to the successful conduct of very large business. These ocean going tugs will bring she fish here from long distance, and from hero they will be shipped either to foreign porta d. rect, or sent in their own steamers to Seattle for shipment across the conti- neut. It will be so industry which ln itself will constitute the nucleus of much larger town thaa KetchiEsn now ls.-KetchikAu Miuer

FAIRBANKS LETTER

that the Vice President had his fingers

the letter is such as 10 place Fairbanks

Instead OF putting the Indianian out
sof the race, his letter has tended 70

he now has the nomination so safely
tagged that he is in a position TO force
the convention to hand it 70 him on

inflicted was fifteen years at hard labor
