The Chronicle, speaking of the Ensee, said: “The Enmsee, a new boat" for Yukon River traffic, was ahout the queerest looking craft which has been seen in Ketchffan har- bor for some time, when she passed thrcugh cn her way to St. Michael and the river. v “She 1s a new boat puilt spee- ially for navigating the mighty Yukon and its tributaries and is owned and will be operated by the Northern Commercial Com- pany. “The Ensee is a flat bottom boat drawing five feet of water loaded. She is driven by twin propellors with 75 horsepower behind each one. “She will run from St. Michael carrying mail,” passengers and freight several hundred milés up the Yukcn River and possibly up the Tanana River to Nenana and Fairbanks. She will remain at St. Michael for the winter and be ready to use again when the ice goes out next year. —_——————— LET Alinquist Press Your Suit. We call ana cenver.
