 During the few days since the ieo and bait have been on hand numer- ous fishermen have availed themsel- yes of the advantages offered. and there is every indication that the demand will be greatly increased as soon as it is generally known among the fishermen that Wrangell pro poses to keep on hand permanent supply of ice ard bait.

 At the suggestion of MT. Rog- CTS of the White Pass.
