Alaska nallled flour from Falr bank many kinds of vegetables from Matanuska. lamb, beef, butter, cream blueberrieS and salmon ber- ries from Kodiak graced the board when members of the Kodiak Live stock Association gathered for their first annual banquet on the even- ing of December 11th at Martins restaurant at Kodiak. The Alaska spread" was proceeded first by the annual business meeting for the election of officers for the ensuing year, constituting the permanent roster for the next 12 months and superceding the temporary officers named when the association was organized in the early fall. It is not indicated that any change will be made in those temporarily ap- pointed, consisting of Jack w. Mo- Cord, president; A. M. Gaudie, vice president and H. s. Abbert, Secre- J -tJ
 A complete turnout of the 20 members of the association with d number of invited guests was pres ent and a lively discussion took place of the problems of livestock versus bear on Kodiak Island, a question that has long been of par amount importance to the islanders and which was the real cause of bringing the Kodiak Livestock As sociation into being. It was this coter;e of earnest livestock men who circulated petition and sc- cured 800 signerS on Kodiak and Afognak Islands asking the Alaska Game Commission to declare an all- year open season on bear with the privilege of shipping the pelts out of the country. It is very probable that the association will go before the forth coming session of the Territorial Legislature and ask for a bounty on Kodiak bear.
 These drastic measures are called for, according to prominent live stock raisers because it has come to a "show down" as to whether there shall be a great and flouriShing live stock industry on this Arcii- pelago or the bear shall be protect ed for the edification of wealthy sportsmen of the States. Sheep and cattle and bear cannot dwell to- gether in peace and amity, they say, and the livestock or the bear must go They point wrathfully to the fact that in spite of all other dit1i- culties they had to meet. they have also had to face loss of approxi- mately $7O,000 in the past four years in sheep and cattle slaughter ed by the bear. They say the con- ditions on these islands are right for stock in both climate and feed, but the industry cannot survive if the bear are not killed off. They also maintain that there are big bear in plenty on the adjacent mainland to keep the hunters of the effete East busy for many years

 evidence Of gold in that out of the way place on t.le chain os islands Maddox had cherished the hope of some day returning and making 6 rich find. Now that he has made the trip and found the vein again, he feels that it is merely a matter Of a few years before he will become a millionaire.
 Ever since he ran away from lis fathers farm in Wisconsin in the spring of 1850 Maddox has been in quest of gold. His first prospecting was in California and along the Rocky mountains. When the big boom came to Nome, Alaska in 1900 Maddox was among those who rushed to the scene.
 CHANGED UPON MINE
 On his way to Nome he chanced to land on the Ale1tian Islands Wheie he discovered his gold vein. Not having the means with which he world fine, he p"ac""' Nome.
 After some time of unsuccessful prospecting in that place he took passage on a ship returning to the United States with the intention of stopping off on the Island again. However. a smallpox epidemic broke out on board the ship and although he was not stricken with the al ,ase te was not allowed to land and was taken directly to Seattle. Since re- turning he has lived in the North west. He now has a ranch at Buff falo Wyo.
 Bot!, Maddox and Miss Trepus feel confident that the samples they have brought back will pSDve tha. there is much gold to be found ir the mine. They have no fears that the location will be discovered by others while they are gone. They now are busily engaged in making preparations for their return trip to the Islands when the first pas senger boat leaves from Seattle next April.
