Against the earth 'ssweet flowing breast

Upon whose bosom snow has lain;

FISH SCARCE ALONG YUKON;
 NATIVES FACE HARD WINTER

The scarcity of salmon along the Yukon river during the last sesson will be felt keenly by the natives during the coming winter. according to Duke E. Stubbs, who arrived from the lower river on Sunday, enroute to Fairbanks for trial in district court on charge of mak- ing false claim for travelling ex- penses as a witness in an Iditarod case. He was required 10 make a trip to Fairbanks last spring, fol- lowing his indictment, and was ready for trial at Flat when his case was called during the summer; but the prosecution obtained caange of venue and the defendant is now making his second trip to court headquarters. He went to Fairbanks this afternoon, accom- panied by Mrs. Stubbs.
 The scarcity of salmon along the Yukon and it's tributaries, Mir. Stubbs declares, is he direct result of the cannery operations at the mouth of the river He does not pretend to be a fisheries expert, but he has devoted considerable time to a study of the salmon situa- ton and 1t was largely through his efforts that the kuskokwim rlver was closed. He went 10 Washington and took the mater up direct with the authorities.
 There is nothing to report in the way of new developments in tae Kuskokwim section, MT Stubbs says. The Kilroy dredge, which is being moved from the Ruby district to Canes creek, arrived safely at Bethel, at which point 1t was taken in tow by the Quickstep. l. will be moved across country over the snow during the winter. 4 new wireless station has been installed at Bethel and is now working.
 There was 9 slight revival in min ing on Flat during ule summer and the two dredges opering on Oph!r are reported to have had fairly successful season. Considerable in- terest is manifested in the develop ment of some quartz properties near Flat and oldtiners are looking forward hopefully to much activity along that line.
 The Marshall camp has dwindled to sniping proposition, and scarcely that, and is now practically de- ser.ed. Furs appear to be fairly plentiful along the river and there is some prospecting going on, but no new striks have been reported. Mir. and Mrs Stubbs made the trip from the Kuskokwim TO the Yukon by way of the portage and brought considerable of an out i fit with them.
 1 It will be of interest to oldtimers to know that the portage has been staked by the Government and can i be followed now without difficulty ] The Kuskokwim and Yukon rivers are very close together at this point
 so close that a canal approximately
 thirty miles in length would enable ! steame CTS to cross from one stream
 to the other. By means of lakes and
 small streams, small boats are able to traverse nearly the entire dis
 tance. but the route was dificul. { o,e +o Fo11o-r, ha+ore T~ was S-aked
