MRS LEWIS UNDERGOES
 CRITICAL OPERATION

Mrs. Jennie Lewis underwent major operation at the Wrangell General Hospital Wednesday.
 Mrs. Lewis has been suffering from gall bladder trouble for some time. Her condition called for an operation, but the condition of her heart was such that she could not stand a general anaesthetie.
 As a result of her condition Mrs. Lewis was subject to severe attacks each of which left her in a more weakened state, and with no hope for her ultimate recovery without an operation.
 In an effort to save her life Dr. Edwards as a last resort undertook the operation through the use of a spinal anaesthesia supplemented with a very small amount of ether inha- lation, which owing to the serious nature of the operation was an ex- ceedingly difficult undertaking. The operation consumed much more time than if a general anaesthetic had been possible. However, the patient stood the operation fully as we'll as could have been expected, and is resting easily at this time. Several large stones were removed from the gall bladder.
 Dr. Edwards is much encouraged by the patients condition today, but says several days may elapse before the final outcome may be antici- pated.

JACK HADLAND SHIPS
 CHOICE BLUE FOX SKINS

Jack Hadland, well known pioneer of the Wrangell and Petersburg dis tricts, was in town this week from his Monte Carlo fur farm located on Monte Carlo island about midway between Wrangell and Petersburg.
 Mir. Hadland states that during the past year he was very successful with both foxes and mink. He brought in for shipment so blue fox belts hay ing a value of at least s10,000. He consigned his shipment to Lampson. London. He still has over 100 foxes left on the island and about the same number of mink.
 Mir. Hadland does not raise mink in captivity. He says he has found that they do better when not penned up. He provides them with plenty of food, and says that by treating them in a friendly manner they be- come almost as tame as domestic ani- mals. In addition to his shipment of fox belts, MT. Hadland brought in some choice mink skins. He says the mink on a fur farm will pay the expenses of the farm, provided the island is one where mink like to be.
 Mir. Hadland says that Monte Carlo Island on which his farm is located is one of a group of islands occupied by abe ut 30 people who are in the busi- ness of fur farming. There is an in vestment of from S35,000 to $50,0OO on each island. This community has no mail service which is not to be classed as an inconvenience but a hardship MT Hadland states that in- asmuch as these fox farm islands are only eight miles off the regular course of the mail boat he can see no good reason for depriving that com munity of mail service.
 Mir. Hadland left on the Admiral Rogers for Seattle. From that city he will go to Buffalo, N. Y. On his return he will visit relatives in Wis consin and Montana.

RESTORATION PROBABLE
 OF FIVE LARGE ISLANDS
 ALEUTIAN BIRD RESERVE

The restoration to the public do main of five of the largest islands of the Aleutian Island Bird Reserve in the near future is indicated in re- ports received in Juneau from au- thentic sources. This is the culmi- tion of ten years of effort on the part of governors of Alaska serving dur ing that time and, it is said, as re- suit of the visit made to the Terri tory last summer by Paul G. Reding- ton, Chief of the U. S. Biological Sur vey.
 The islands which it is proposed to eliminate from the reserve are Um- nak, Unalaska, Akutan, Sanak and Tigalda, the last named including a few other small islands adjacent. This will leave all of the Aleutians west of Umnak in the reserve, but they are largely of rocky formation and not especially desirable for any industrial purpose.
 On the islands to be eliminated there are many areas suitable for stock raising and on some of them herds are already running under per- init from the department of agricul- ture, which, through the Biological Survey, administers the reserve.
 The Aleutian Island Bird Reserve was established in 1910 as a refuge and breeding ground for birds. h. vestigation has shown that not a great many species of valuable birds breed there and that many of the islands withdrawn are adaptable for settlements and certain forms of in dustry Tn restoring them to the public domain for administration by the department of the interior, pro- vision will be made to give ex-serv- ice men prior settlement rights.

endorsement to everything MT. Hos stad had said He said that of all the regulations that have been passed this is by all odds the most absurd one he ever heard of, as any person who has had any experience with herring at all knows that they will not keep when caught full of feed. He said it would be impossible to es- timate the gigantic losses that would occur to the halibut fisheries alone if this regulation remains in force.
 As a result of the discussion the following eablegram was sent to the Petersburg Commercial Club:
 ''Wrangell Commercial Club is
 in full sympathy with your atti-
 tude toward new herring regula-
 tion. If you draft a resolution
 please submit same to us for our
 endorsement. We are ready to
 join with other Clubs in any con-
 certed action calculated to over,
 come difficulties of present serious

Sanitary Cannery May Be Rebuilt
 Two Line

Prospects are very good at present that new eannery will be built in Wrangell this spring on the site that was formerly occupied by the Alaska Sanitary Packing Company.
 About two weeks ago N. Nuss- baumer who is now in Seattle sue- ceeded in interesting o. P. Nergaard in the proposition. Mir Nergaard. who is one of the most experienced cannery men in Alaska, was so inn pressed by what was told him that he decided to come to Wrangell and look over the situation personally.
 He arrived here on the Alameda Saturday night and remained until the Queen went south Wednesday.
 MT. Nergaard was a guest of the Wrangell Commercial Club at its weekly luncheon Monday. When called upon he stated that it is his belief that there is a good opportun- ity in Wrangell for a cannery and cold storage combined He expressed the belief that Wrangell's strategical location would be particularly advan- tageous in the operation of cold storage plant. He said that the only thing that prevented his making def mite announcement that he was go ing ahead with the proposition was the fish supply. He had made tenta- tive arrangements for the output of several traps, but would have to ar range for the output of at least two more traps before he would feel justi- fled in undertaking to operate. How ever, he still had hopes that he would yet be able to enter into agreements whereby he would be assured of a supply of fish.
 MT. Nergaard's remarks were greeted by hearty applause.
 MT. Nergaard left on the Admiral Rogers for Ketchikan with the inten- tion of continuing his journey to Se- attle on the Queen. On taking his departure he said he was quite en- thusiastic over the project and hoped the deal would go through, in which case he would be back here in few weeks.

New Fishing Regulations the
 Worst Yet

The Wrangell Commercial Club at it's meeting last week authorized its secretary to address a letter to Hon. Henry O'Malley protesting against certain sections of the new fishery regulations. Following is a of several paragraphs from the body of the letter:
 We take the liberty of stating frankly that we fail to see how the conservation of fish will be aided to any appreciable extent by the new regulation which provides that Commercial fishing for salmon by trolling, except from boats propelled wholly by oars or sails, is prohibited prior to April 1 in each calendar year"
 There is not a great deal of pow CT trolling done during the winter months of January, February and March. Those who troll during those months generally do so be- cause of necessity, and they do not catch spawn fish except in rarest occasions. From our viewpoint the closing order will only have the effect of saving the troll fish until the season opens on April l, when weather conditions are such that trollers will begin to appear in numbers-numbers that will increase as the season advances. Another regulation which does not appear to us as aiding in the con- servation of fish is Regulation No. 8 under the head of General Regu- lations which provides that "The operation of any so-called hammer head type of trap is prohibited" Practical wishermen and trap own CTS alike are perplexed as to how a hammer-head type of trap is i'll any way more detrimental than the heavier traps used by the big companies in the exposed areas. This regulation means that tn. owners of hammer-head traps must either go out of business or spend thousands of dollars in having their traps altered.
 We respectfully petition that rNort1T1finnc nhnun innnn be changed, unless there are req sons of which we have no knowl- edge why these two regulations should have been made.

At this weeks meeting of the Com mercial Club cablegram was read from the Petersburg Commercial Club inviting the Wrangell organiza- tion to join with them in concerted action in an effort to bring about change in Section 5 of the herring regulations, which provides that No herring fishing boat shall carry or operate more than one seine of any description, and no additional net of any kind shall be carried on such boat. The carrying of any additional seine or net of any kind on a boat lowed by any herring fishing boat is prohibited
 MT. Rikard Hofstad of Scow Bay was present and asked permission to address the Club on this matter.
 He declared that it is absolutely impossible for bait fishermen and fishermen fishing for herring for preserving to operate under the reg ulations limiting them to the use of one seine only. He said if this regu- lation remains in force it will mean the ruination of the halibut industry in Alas k a-an industry which amounts to millions of dollars annu- ally. He stated that this regulation does not affect fertilizer plants, but that anyone who has any knowledge at all of herring fishing knows that if herring are being caught for bait purposes or for preserving it is ab- solutely necessary that they be inn pounded long enough to allow them to disgorge themselves of feed. And this is not possible under the new regulation which prohibits the her ring fisherman from carrying any ad- ditional seine or net of any kind. Mir Hofstad further stated that only very small percentage of the herring caught annually are used for bait purposes, and that over 95 per cent of the herring catch goes into the fertilizer plants which are not in any way affected by the new regulation
 He said he had four thousand dollars worth of gear that would be valueless if this regulation remains in effect and that his loss would be slight in comparison with that of some of the halibut fishermen
 When Mir. Hofstad had finished talking Jack Hadland who was pres ent stated that he wanted to add his
