KODIAK RANCHER MOURNS
 LOSS UF MURE CATTLE

KODIAk-Mournlng the loss ot further cattle from the attacks Of bear, Sid Olds, noted guide on the staff of the Alaska Guides Inc, who has a ranch at Middle Bay about 10 miles south of Kodiak, IS Vehe mently against the idea of protect ing bear on this island. He is run ming about A head of cattle and q lew head of sheep. He recently made small shipment of wool.
 ''The other day 1 went out and counted IA calves with their moth ers," he said. "The next morning the cattle came home on the gun and when counted them they were two calves and one COW short. went out and hunted and found where the cattle had bedded down and dog smelled out the remains of calf about 100 yards distant. All that was left of it was legs and part of the skull. I have lost cat tie before and anyone who says the bear is not a killer is a damned fool. l know positively of 10 car casses in one hollow and on an- other occasion I found only the legs of a critter along the trail.
 "The cattle will not range but come into the hayfield and hang around there afraid to venture out. If man wants to raise stock on this island he has got to have some protection. If they want to protect the bear, let them put a ban on the mainland bear for Kodiak has not been really hunted for 15 years that I know of and God knows there's plenty of bear on the penin- sula to last the hunters for 1000 years. The Alaska Guides Inc., have never hunted on the island but always on the mainland.
 Robert Frothingham, the writer and lecturer, is strong for the New England idea of protecting the Ko- diak bear, but men whose forbears offered a bounty on Indian scalps in colonial times seem to me to be rather far-reaching in now crying for the protection of these fur bearing killers.-Seward Gateway.

ALASKA R. R. OFFICIAL
 ACCUSES MINING INTEREST

Assurance that several large and responsible mining firms would send representative to Alaska to investigate mining ground in the interior was given H. G. Ilderton, general agent of the Alaska Rail road when he was outside last spring.
 He found mining groups favora- bly inclined toward Alaska propo- sitions and said they were particu- larly interested in ground in the Broad Pass and Kantishna regions. In MT. Ilderton's opinion the Broad Pass country is certainly wonder full proposition for furnishing a big tonnage for low grade ground"
 While it is MT. Ilderton's busi- ness, of course, to do everything possible to increase the tonnage over the railroad it is his object always to investigate propositions and convince himself of their merit before recommending them for eX- ploitation to outside capital and he is thoroughly informed as to what he is talking about when he speaks about the possibility of mining de- yelopment along the railroad belt.
 Since his return to Alaska MT Ilderton has been working chiefly on colonization and tourist business The colonization program is pro- ceeding very satisfactorily, he said Already between 1,600 and 1,80O inquiries concernng conditions in the Tanana and Matanuska valleys have been received.

Community "Liuer Complaint"

Some towns get oliver complaint. They don't
know exactly what fails them. They lack pep and
punch They lack diagnosis, and are hardly willing
to have one made. Then is time for some community
medicine.
The state of the weather can't administer the
dose, because the weather is just fixed quantity
as it is changeable one
Somebody from afar can always find difficulty
in telling the town what is wrong because there are
always those in leadership who don't want any "out
slider" coming in to tell them how to run the town.
If one of the local citizens attempts to arouse the
town. he is accused of trying to run things.
If some fellow who hasn't taken much Of part
before in civic affairs rises to the OCCASION he is de-
clared to be unfamiliar with his subject
What can town do for liver complaint? To wait
for prosperity is only part of the battle To artificial
y hasten good times is dangerous because the reac
ton of puffed up boom is harmful to sound bust
ness
The best remedy for community sickness is the
creation of new outlook upon community life But
it must come from much Of all the citizenship as
possible. Each and every must gain new con-
sciousness of civic loyalty and community pride.
