EARLY EXPORTATION OF
 ALASKA CRANBERRIES

(From The All-Alaska Review)
 Among the records of the govern mene of the exports from Alaska to San Francisco, kept during the ear Hest years of the occupation by the United States, is the item of six bar rels and one cask of cranberries, val ue $7O. They were sent from Sitka on the ship Winged Arrow" on July 17th, 1868.
 In the Alaska Herald' published in San Francisco, Calf, March 18th, 1869, appears an item as follows re lating to the cranberries from Alaska
 "The Kodiak fruit readily com mands in the market from 15 to 20 cents more per quart than the Ore gon." It is also said that the northern berries are put into casks, water put over them, and the cask headed up, in which condition they keep for months without deterioration through both warm and cold weather.

 Only eight years have passed since the rise and fall of this remarkable promoter. His railroad enterprise was without merit and the most re- markable feature of his success was the number of prominent people that he managed to interest in his scheme and the extent of the failure was what embittered many of these men to an extent that to this day they fail to realize the fact that they were dup ed but are anxious to blame all of their misfortune upon those who have been more successful in the Northern territory.-(Railway & Marine News.

Mississippi bubble, and other schemes which had their inception on the other side of the Atlantic. The AL aska Home Railway, promoted by Henry D. Reynolds in the year of 1907, certainly eclipsed them all in the alluring prospects held out to ex- pected purchasers of stock. Reynolds had quite a career in Southern Alaska and certainly got any number of fol- lowers. He is the one who figures so prominently as the promoter in Rex Beachs story of "The Iron Trail" While his railroad scheme would not stand investigation owing to the i'm passible mountain barrier lying back of Valdez, his plan of making a big steamship line of the Alaska Coast Go. and developing mineral around Prince William Sound had their good points and is just what has been ac- comIlished by others.
 In his original prospectus he an nounced his intention of building a railroad to the interior. It was to be narrow guage with SO-pound rails, electrical power generated by water falla; policy uniform freight rates and fares, no high salaried officials, no free passage or rebates. In addi-

 Coincident with the destruction of that record, the present activity of the government in building railroads in Alaska and the successful opera ton of the Copper River road which is handling $2,OOO,0OO worth of cop per ore per month, review of this remarkable episode in Alaska's history is here given, to be preserved for future generation as matter of historical record.
