OLDTIMER HAD CLOSE CALI.
 IN FATAL SHOOTING AFFRAY

Alex Hanot, we'll known oldtimer of Pedro creek, who returned from the Outside yesterday, after an ab- sence of two years, figured prom inently in the fatal Seattle shoot ing affray for which John Schmidt was executed at Walla Walla last week. Hanot was in the thick of affray, being within few feet of two of the policemen when they were shot down in cold blood by the bandit-murderer. And he has not yet figured out why Schmidt did not turn his gun on him also.
 Hanot was walking down the street on the fatal evening, just a short distance behind two policemen, who were trying the doors as they passed along the block. He saw q man come across from the other side of the street, hesitate when about half way across, and then continue toward the policemen. He wore a cap and mackinaw and had the appearance of a suspicious character and, when close to the two officers he was accosted by them, whereupon he stopped to al- most kneeling posture and began shooting at them. One of the police men fell in his tracks, while the other sought refuge behind a near
The Nenana news., 1921-04-05

now there are no jobs and no money in the bank.
 Notwithstanding the fact that conditions generally are bad in Seattle, rents continue high, due largely to the fact that taxes are excessive. Prices on food and cloth ing, however, have declined consid- erably.
 The suspension of numerous of Seattle's industries, Mr. Hanot says, is attributed to the increasing de- mands of labor and the unwilling ness of workers to give fair ex- change of labor for the pay re- ceived. Too much unionism, is the way many of the big employers ex- plain the situation, and the present unemployment throughout the en- tire country is calculated to put labor in a frame of mind to be less exacting in their demands.
 Pending a readjustmen, of con- ditions in the States, the trend of travel appears to be toward Alaska and Mir. Hanot asserts that the Alaskan Engineering commission could easily recruit 10000 men in Seattle, by the offer of summers work.
 Speaking of the railroad, Mir. Hanot, who mushed over the trail between ends of steel and had an opportunity to observe the work along the way, believes the com mission will have no difficulty in connecting the road according to plans. The project does not present the obstacles that he had expected to see.
 Like others who have returned to, Alaska from the States recent ly, MT. Hanot says the Outside is far from being dry, and it is his opinion that it would break the Government to enforce the dry law. Canada, whence most of the liquor comes, is getting rich from the illicit traffic and it is the boast of Canadians that they will be able to pay off their war debt within a very short time if the traffic continues. Good Canadian whisky, Mir. Hanot says, can be bought in Seattle for $S quart and $2 cheaper by the case. And from what he saw, it does not require difficult maneuver- ing to get it, so numerous and bold are the bootleggers. Good whisky is so plentiful there is no market for "mule".
 Mir. Hanot will spend the summer on his ground on Pedro creek, put ting it in shape for open cut oper- ations a year hence. He estimates that he has enough work ahead of him to keep him busy for half a dozen years.
 MT. Hanot went to Fairbanks to- day and will be joined by Mrs. Hanot shortly after the water runs.
