No Pork Famine Now.

No Pork Famine Now.
Witness from the inside Is that which
Patrick Cudahy, the great western pack
er, bears regarding the provision mar
let, when he declares that the con-
sumers Of pork products have econ.
omized 25 to 30 per cent. in their pur-
chases and rendered false his predictions
OF a meat famine. Though there has
been a shortage Of 100000 hogs In
the last twelve months. there Is more
than enough pork to supply current de-
mand and there viii be a good bit to
carry into the winter packing season
And, not only have high prices lost the
packers domestic trade, but English
trade as we'll China, Servia, and other
countries are supplying England with
pork that formerly came from this coun.
try. Tfs high prices OF hogs will, in
Mr., Cudahy's opinion, assure supply
Of hogs, and he adds that the January
product is selling on the basis of seven
cent hogs, while corn, with which hogs
are fattened, is selling on the basis Of
flve-cent hogs. Mr.. Cudany SAYS the
lard trade is only fair, while the de-
mand for products generally is poor
To add his significant remark, Instead
Of buyers running after us, we are run
ming after the buyers" The organized
boycott Of meats possiblye did not
achieve much save in emphasizing facts
and imparting economic impulse, but
the economy of Individual families has
gone a long way toward cheapening GER
tain classes of meats, albeit it may be
those sorts that are consumed CHIEFLY by
the poorer class OF citizens, who, after
all, are the larger Boston
Herald.

ID BE 4 SOCIAL
 EFFUSI0N DE LUXE

Invitations were circulated last Tuesday, apprising the chosen ones of the grand ball that will be held at Ansley's Hall in this city on the even- ing of the 27th, when Masons and their friends for miles around will gather in what will doubtless be the swellest social affair yet held in the Iditarod.
 The preparations have been going on apace under the direction of a commit tee, and when the guests assemble they will be assured of treat such as never was. The first floor of the Ansley building is being prepared as a re- ce ltiOn room where those who do not wish to dance may amuse themselves at cards. Punch will be served and the Merchants cafe will do the cater ing. The orchestra will contain the best musical talent in the country and an excellent program is being pre- pared.
 As is the custom at formal affairs in Alaska, both formal and informal dress is permissible and it is rumored that some of the young swelIs are to appear in their glad rags, as this is their first opportunity to wear them. However, l sack coat is bazmaraz and de rigger, IS the French say and is designed to let every body in, just like bum American  consul at a state ball.
 The creek Masons are planning to lttend in a body and there is certain to be a big concourse of loving people, The following is the list of committees
 Refreshments-C. E. Miller, chair man. 1. Bayles, John Strelic and Alfred Nelson.
 Floor-Grant Murdock, chairman, E. B. Hunt, Nat Lyons, M. B. Peters.
 Decoration-E. H. Langley, chair man, Alfred Nelson, J. H. Clark, ". Ansley, NJ. B. Peters.
 Reception-J. F. A. Strong, chair man, Ike Bayles, Tom Thurston, c. E. Taylor, Stewart, Breese, Atkinson. Wilson, Simpson, Ross. Ensor, Dunn Lundgren, Newman, Brooks, Funk, Christoper, Weir, Goldstein, Smith, Witte.
 Tickets are five dollars for each couple, extra ladies, S2 50. The invi- tations must be presented at the door.

North Star Quits,
 KataIIa News Starts

Finding lack of support for it's daily issue, the Cordova North Star, cap able sheet flying the name of Robert J. McChesney at the masthead, re- gently announced it's withdrawal from the daily field, and affirmed it's lnten- tion of publishing the journal once a week. This it believed was about all the business of Cordova would stand.
 Just about the same time, the Cor dova Daily Alaskan announced that it was about to start the publication of the Katalla News, a daily which would have a complete telegraphic service in the neighboring town.
 It would appear that this condition arises from the active support given the Cordova Alaskan by the Guggen- helms, for it is, confessedly, the Gug- genheim organ. In their haste to stand in with the powers that be. the advertiser is afraid to patronize any other sheet.

THE TOLL OF TIE
 NORTHERN TRAILS

Freighted with the personal effects of Otto Sake, the young German who lost his life in the wilds of the upper Iditarod about six weeks ago, Tommy Thompson, known in some circles as "Ptarmigan" Thompson and Pete Mur dock arrived in Iditarod last week and brought with them another story of possible tragedy in the silent hills. Charles Schack' who had been part ner of Sake and lived in the same cab in with him on Mosquito creek, had started for the Kuskokwim two days before Thompson left on his way to this city, The departure of Schack came suddenly following quarrel with Mr. BOdie with whom he had been living, and he went with only hat, no proper clothing and with little food.
 Immediately following his departure the weather became intensely cold and it was generally acknowledged by the men who knew of the incident tha Schack had little chance of getting through.
 Although there was apprehension that he might have perished no action seems to have been taken by the pros pectors to follow his trail. They seemed to go on the theory that if he was fool ish enough to depart in that fashion,
 
 Sake has long been given up for dead, as no trace has ever been found of him. His effects have been turned over to the commissioner here and word will be sent to Henry Roden in Fairbanks, as the two were formerly partners. Saxe leaves a sister in Oak land, and it is presumed that Roden knows her address.

They Will Charter
 Vehicles Regardless

At special meeting of the Otter Masonic Club held at Flat City last Sunday night, among other things 1t was decided that the coming ball to be given by the Tditarod Masonic Club on December ? is of such promise that they must give it their personal atten- tion, or, in other words, inspect by viewing the premises.
 As result of that decision, it is said that the creek Masons are coming in body Tuesday night, and nearly every conveyance on the creek has been chartered for the occasion.
 The Sunday night meeting at Flat, aforementioned, was the biggest thing yet pulled off out there by the club members, The business session was made short one that more time might be devoted to the social session and banquet held at the Grand hotel, where, as a hostess, Mrs. Selma Swan son proved to be in a class by herself.
 Those present acknowledge it one of the daintiest and, withal, one of the most satisfying repasts they have seen served in the country.
 Following the banquet there was a period of speeches and stories, during which the grateful thanks of the brothers were extended to Mrs. Swan son for her hospitality. She responded in happy speech that left nothing to be desired.
 The creek organization is on strong basis, and will prove one of the liveli est social forces on the creeks this winter.
 Among those present at the banquet were the following:
 Mr. and Mrs. N N, Jatfe, Mir. and Mrs. Dan Sutherland, Mr. and Mrs. E. NJ. Rusk, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Pat ton, Mrs. Swanson, Miss Ada Gal braith, Messrs. J. F. Monkman, c. H. Soule, Albert WinehiIl, +. M. Terry, Thos. McMahon, Nat Lyons, Philip Jaffe, J. F. Risser, w. s. Reese, Jas. Hagan, John Worth, J. H, Scott, Fred Rapp, Harry Dunn, Karl Thiel, Lyman Jones, Chas. Carroll, Fred Ekrut, F. M. Spaulding.

THAT HAPPY NEW
 YEAR CUSTOM

Marking back to the good, old times at home, when houses were thrown wide open to New Year callers, and bachelors were given chance to take look at what real living was like a number of ladies in Iditarod and on the creeks are planning to hold open house on New Years day.
 Its a great custom and should be boosted along. If you haven't paid your calls this year, you can go out and pay them in bunch, and it will discom- mode no one. They will be laying for you and will be prepared for any idiotic thing your O mind to say. Besides they will be enthused with the holiday spirit and will be glad to see you.
 Now then, since this open-house movement is of so much benefit to bachelors, this great family journal wishes to do all in it's power to accele- rate the action. Therefore if all ladies in Iditarod or on the creeks, who in- tend to keep open house on New Years day will send in their names, we will be tickled to death to publish them.
