CUTTER UNALGA COMES T0 BASE FROMWESTWARD Coast Guard Craft Returns| Here from Long Cruise —New Officers With a hom stream from after a five mc her home po cutter Unalga, Comc Addison, arrived sterday afternoon made the trip from Unalaska from Guard | The Unalga to Juneau in five days, encountering| a smooth sea ac s the Gulf of The annual patrol of the North P c Ocean, Bering Sea and Southes Alaska, is now being carried on by the Coast Guard rs Northland, Chelan, and|s Haida, and up until July 6, the Unalga was one of this group. The | annual visitation has been con- purpose of this and patrol which ducted many years by the Coast Guard has for its pr ry purpose the enforcement of the convention 7, 1911, between the United , Great Britain, Russia, and an, and the laws and regula- tions for the protection of the fur seal otter and of game, the T and fur-bearing ani- mals of Alaska. The vessels tak- ing part in these cruises also ful- fiii many other useful offices such furnishing transportation to officials and to the school teachers, prisoners, and as Government local authorities, destitutes, native: other persons; carrying United mail; delivering food and r supplies and freight to iso- lated settlements; succoring per- sons found to be in need; provid- ing medicines and medical, surgi- cal and dental treatment for na- tives; combatting epidemics; as- sisting vessels in distress; assisting other Federal agencies having in- terests in the country; aiding in the administering of justice; set- tling differences between employers and employees; and assisting in the enforcement of the United States laws. Carries Justice The Unalga carried U. S. Attor- ney W. N. Cuddy and Deputy Mar- shal J. M. Regan from Seward to the Westward for the purpose of making an investigation of crimes reported in the willages to the| westward. A number of small hemlock and spruce trees were also taken from Seward for transplant- ing in the treeless region around Unalaska and, to date, they are doing very well. On a cruise to Slime Bank, in which vicinity the cod-fishing ves- sels are operating, it was found that these vessels had had a fair catch and were fishing somewhat farther to the eastward than usual for this season of the year. Reported War A little excitement was added to the recent cruise when the Unalga; proceeded to Chernofski for the purpose of preserving order at the scene of a reported sheep war. The old Russian and native village of Chernofski is entirely deserted therc remaining only the church, two frame houses, and one barabara, all in poor repair and empty. The Aleutian Live Stock Company has a home ranch and enclosures on a spit on the west side of his har- bor. The West Pacific Live Stock Company was expected to attempt to establish themselves at this same location with possible blood- shed. Probably due to the presence of the Unalga, no conflict arose, the latter company landing its sheep at Kashega, some 15 miles THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, FRIDAY, JULY 12, 1929. aw when Kashega was visited, it was found that Dr. An- drew C. Smith, President of the ‘West Pacific Live Stock Company, claimed the spit on the west side of Chernofski Harbor by reason of the recording of a saltery and trad- ing site in the Land Records of Un: ka in 1917. Both companies claim this identical location, one by rig of occupation and im- ! provement, and onc by right of re- cording in 1917.
