The Alaska fisherman., 1924-07-15

Republicans forced him to run, and even though his strongest packer, Johnny Grant, pushed the pencil of Captain links, foreign born China man, the Gurr lost out by one vote.
 However, the Gurr decided that the Republicans had not fully appreciated his merits or statesmanship and that he would run anyhow for H. l.. Faulkner and the Shepard had prom ised the mass votes of certain sheep minds of Juneau.
 The result? When the votes were counted the Gurr had not even car ried "his own town" and was thor oughly beaten by the entire Pro- gressive ticket. That was "tuff. ;" w. D. Grant, whom the Gurr was se- lected to beat, got 1S9 votes com pared with the Gurr's S4. Paul got 142, Ferguson 11S and Hern 1O1.
 The result? We'll, the Gurr got wild, and found a poor, helpless folk who could not defend themselves. He declared that no Indian would be al lowed in the public school of Wrang- ell, but that the town would build a "shack near the sawmill' and the kids would have to get along there. r. never entered the Gurr's mind q mean head, that the least that could be done would be to return the fine building which the natives gave up in order that the town might have a high school. No, the town would keep that. Furthermore, q don't know how it was done, whether through the Gurr's control over ere dits and loans or not), the other members of the school board let the Gurr have his way. Teachers were fired and friends of the Gurr or other politicians were hired. Un- expired contracts were broken as being "mere scraps of paper" under the command of the Gurr. And now, Wrangell is on it's ear again.
 The trap interests are in control of Wrangell. Schools are to be closed to certain citizens of the town. The fair name of Wrangell is to be dragged into the courts to see if a contract fairly entered into and duly signed and partly filled is worth anything at all.
 Or will it be that the political banker who has refused at least in one case to grant a loan even on the security of a Liberty Bond, will push citizens off the sidewalk. Fish ermen will do we'll to remember that

 Wrangell can have peace once more when it gets rid of the growler, -Gurr-rr-rr.
The Alaska fisherman., 1924-07-15
WRANCELL POLITICS

WnO now runs the town OI WfdnSell, arrived in that beautiful city, Wrang- ell had just about found peace. For many years people believed that Wrangell was so named because the inhabitants there wrangled and quar- relied so much. First came the ter rible trouble in the church that di- vided families, brother against bro ther, father against daughter. It has taken over twenty years to heal the wounds that were caused by this fight, and has taken great patience and forbearance on the part of many.
 Then came the school trouble brought about not so much by resi- dents of Wrangell as by the mis- understanding friends CD in Juneau and elsewhere. This trouble, furious for time, was settled in a very sensible way and all was calm and peace. The city council made con- tract with the Bureau of Education whereby the Bureau was to turn over the Indian school building to the city of Wrangell for use as a high school.
 Then the school board, by solemn: contract, agreed to recommend a teacher who would teach the Indian children up to the fifth grade, and then the children were to be treated precisely as any other child; the Bureau agreed to pay the salary of the teacher. This agreement was to last five years.
 On account of the sickness of Mrs. Upshaw, MT. Upshaw, the genial and beloved cashier of the Bank of Alaska at Wrangell had to re- sign, and in casting about for suc cessor, A. E. Gurr was selected. He seemed to have all the qualifications for successful, small town banker He had been employed in the Doug las bank, was we'll known in Juneau was bright, good bookkeeper and something of church man.
 And so into this peaceful commun- ity came A. E. Gurr. For a time. he merely felt out the land. Then gradually, perhaps insensibly, he be- gan to feel that as a banker he should have more to say. Perhaps the palavering which borrowers na- turally give when they wish to get a loan made Mr. Gurr think that he owned the bank. At any rate custo- mers began to see great difference in their welcome at this bank. A nod of an imperial head, smile, a grin, deathlike silence DerhaDS a bit of cclic, such moods were enough to puzzle the timid.
 But the gods were at play, and so the Gurr was elected secretary on the School Board, town treasurer or something or other. Contracts were

COMPLETES DISPLAY
GALLATTN POST PURCHASES
80 FLAGS TO ROUND OUT
STREET DECORATION

The BOzeman unit of the American
Legion, Gallatin Post Number ii,
has purchased and placed thirty-five
flags to complete the uniform dec
Grafton of the streets.
When the flags along Main street
were installed it was the plan of
the merchants to have the decoration
uniform, with a flag pole every
twenty-five feet the entire length OF
the street. The flags were so plac-
ed and the effect was most pleasing.
However, there was slight opposition
on the part of some few people who
refused to buy flags. This was due
to the fact of the uniform method
and the flag pole not coming direct
ly in front of their place of bust
ness.
This refusal left noticeable gaps
and spoiled the uniformity Of the
plan. A check of the street gave q
shortage of about fOrty-five poles.
Thirty-five of the flag outfits were
purchased by the local Legion Post

Turkey Raising Industry

The turkey raising industry is in
creasing in Importance rapidly in Mon
tana. Montana, compared to other
states, has but little blackhead among
turkeys and the partial freedom from
this disease, together with ideal range
conditions over much Of the state, are
combining to make Montana one Of the
important turkey raising states Of the
Union.
At this time Of the year the worst
worry is past, since the most difficult
time for the young pOults is during the
first few weeks of life. Once they are
on the range the problem is compare
lively easy. During the summer the
turkeys should receive only a small
amount of grain. depending upon range
feed largely. Night feeding is done
largely to induce the turkeys to come
in 10 roOst.
Many turkeys are killed each year by
skunks, coyotes and dogs. Most of the
damage comes at night so turkeys
should rOOst inside a fenced or pro-
tected yard. A small beH on the necks
Of several old birds often cuts down
loss from coyotes.
Turkeys do not fatten well during
hot weather and fattening should not
begin until about the first Of October
when the weather begins to get cooler.

TREASURE STATE
FARM SUCCESS

David Stewart of Crane, Richland
county. is credited over the state as
being one Of the outstanding corn men
Of Montana. Mr.. Stewards success
varies from that of a good many corn
men in that he has been at the job a
great deal longer. Mr.. Stewart start
ed growing Dakota white flint at
Crane in 1901 and since that time has
grown corn each year and has never
had a failure. He reports that he has
never had yields of less than 80 bush
els per acre and that his average yield
during that time has been between 60
and 20 bushels.
Mr.. Stewart is what might be called
a corn crank" He believes in improv-
ing things and this particularly applies
to what is known as the Stewart strain
OF Dakota white flint. He follows
best practices in cultural methods and
IN seed selection. Every wear he has
field selected his seed corn. keeping
only the best type of ears from the
kind Of plant he has thought best for
his own seed. AS a consequence. Mr..
Stewart has bred up perhaps the tTpi-
est and highest yielding strain of pa
kOta white flint in the northwest.
Mr.. Stewart has taken a great deal
of interest in corn shows and has
either taken or sent exhibits of his
corn to the county corn shows. state
fair and state corn shows and has al
ways won the laurels on his corn. He
has the distinction Of having won
sweepstakes in the 10 ears of white
flint class at the state corn show at
Miles City for the last five years
straight and in addition to this his corn
has always made a similar showing at
other fairs.
Mr.. Stewart has gone into the seed
production business and in cO-Opera-
tion with the Montana Seed Growers
association. is putting on the market
several hundred bushels Of certified
seed corn each year. He always has
more calls for seed than he can fur
market. Each year he sends seed corn
to a good many neighboring states and
last year he sent a shipment of seed
corn to Russia for experimental pur-
poses.
Mr.. Stewart does not believe in con-
filming his efforts to corn alone. He
always markets the corn crop that he
does not save for seed, with hogs and
in addition grows a few potatoes each
year, a good garden and milks a few
cows. He has made good and he
credits his success to Investigation
and sticking with the job.

and Henri c. Pinney, who installed

1t is the plan of the Legion to
have a committee Of LegiOnaires
work in conjunction with the Mill
tary Affairs Committee OF the Cham
Der of Commerce, on plans of when
the flags are to be displayed and
the proper care of them. The plans
will be worked out and notification
sent to all who have flags. The

of the local post of the American Le-
giOn on all Civic" programs of work
which they have adopted in conform
ity with plans of the national body.
With the coming of the fall seas.
on, when regular meetings will be
held, it is planned to fall in line with
a program of civic work that will
coincide with the work of the other
organizations along that line. A

their own initiative in this work their
ultimate aim is To dovetail in with
every movement for the good OF the
city and county, and add their
strength to all worthy efforts.

CAMPERS WELCOME ON
HELENA FAIR GROUNDS

The first reservation for tent and
camp space on the tourist camp
grounds of the Montana State fair for
1924 m from ScObey, in far north
eastern Montana. Make reservations
for party of five. as I am coming with
my family to spend the entire week AT
Helena this year the intending camp
er wrote Secretary Moore.
Started as an experiment for the
fair of 1922. the tourist camp grounds
more than justified expectations in
1923, when every available site was
occupied by camping families who re-
manned on the grounds in comfort,
many Of them during the entire week.
Electric lights and running water, free
fire wood. provision deliveries daily,
tents for rent-theSe are some of the
advantages that have made the tourist
camp popular. The camp has devel-
Oped from clearing out the under
growth from a beautiful grove just
west Of the main agricultural hall on
the Montana State fair grounds.
Special weekly rates that admit fam
lilies to each day and night perform
ancc are inducements to those who in
TEND driving to the State fair to try
the ground accommodations.
Long before September %, when the
Montana fair opens, most of the space
on the tourist camp will be reserved,
and the State fair management is con-
sidering charging the available space
ST the early inquiries promise campers
more numerous than in 1923.

days in late September, and Journeys
TO Helena where as a'member of the
executive board he assists in success
fully presenting the Montana State
fair, which this year will be held on
September 1927. Mr.. Vaux's share In
the management Of the fair is no small
one He is in charge Of the financial
end Of the weeks work, but personally
devOtes long hours daily to transpOrta-
ton work, which means that exhibits
are delivered promptly and at the right
place, cars are available when and
where wanted, mail deliverd properly,
no Oyercharges made, and the thou
sand-and-one details connected with
that important side Of a big fair which
the public never sees, are efficiently
looked after. Mr.. Vaux is considered
one of the big assets to the Montana
State fair.

Campfire Girls Adopt Flag Idea

That the plan of the uniform flag decoration on the
business streets has worked out so successfully, and the
fact that several residents along Wilson avenue and other
streets are placing flags in front of their dwellings, has
imbued the BOzeman Campfire Girls with the patriotic idea
of soliciting all residences and having flags placed.
The girls will receive "honors" for every flag installed
for their ceremonial gowns, but this is not the incentive for
the work. The Campfire Girls are loyal and believe that a
proper and consistent display of the national emblem of this
great country is the duty of every loyal American. The
new method of display is economical and within the reach
of everyone, and is an easy method of displaying the flag.
1t also lives up to the flag code adopted by all national
patriotic societies.
BOzeman Will present a beautiful sight when the flags
are displayed, and will be one of the first cities to adopt
this plan. Campfire Girls are to be commended for the
effort they are making. Mrs. Daughters, Campfire leader
of BOzeman, will have charge of the flag campaign.
