All
Arrangements
Made.
As
staled
in
your
paper
pre-ious
lo
the
excursion
to
Ket
chikan,
we
desired
all
laws
ot
the
United
Slates
lo
be
complied
with
and
(he
prohibition
law
wa
especially
mentioned.
With
this
in
mind
there
was
a
committee
sent
to
Ketchikan
a
fortnight
in
advance
to
interview
Ihe
"Customs
and
Immigration"
department
and
secure
the
necessarj
requirements
for
so
complying.
Upon
the
request
of
this
coni-miflee
these
departments
were
kind
enough
to
furnish
a
man
lo
make
Ihe
trip
with
the
boat.
The
same
was
for
the
sole
purpose
of
eliminating
the
unavoidable
lelay
or
inspecting
passengers
after
arriving
at
Ketchikan.
This
arrangement
was
very
satisfactory,
anil
when
we
ar-
ived
the
Captain
placed
the
gang'

on

asked
for

inspection
by

officers.

reply
was

As
it

important
that

should
be
embarked
upon
with
the
least
possible
delay,
the
superintendent
was
present
to
lay

Ihe

before

The!
present
plant
was
dilapidated
and
had
been
condemned
and
was
not
giving
efficient
service.
The
building
now
proposed,
a
lire-proof
structure,
would
do
away
with
insurance
and,
with
its
operation,
the
services

two

could
be
dispensed
with.
Thus
$1,000
in

would
be
saved
