Poet Of Alaska
Visits Enterprise
WILL LECTURE IN ENTERPRISE
TWO NIGHTS NEXT WEEK
AUGUST 30 AND 31.
Robert Roblnsoi, known in liter
ary circles as the poet of Alaska,
called at this office Tuesday and
mode himself known.
There Is no accounting for the
eccentricities of genius. Mr. Rob
inson for some time has been travel
ing incognito through this section
of the West, in search of "local
color" and material for short sto
ries. He is so delighted) with the
beauty omd climatic conditions of the
valley that he has. "pitched camp''
and decided to remain here until
the hot weather has somewhat abat
ed, when he will continue his pil
grimage to the coast-.
In, his early life in Michigan, the
poet, served his time as printer's
devil on a "weakly weekly" (as he
expressed It) but did not make his
mark as a wrluer of verse at that
time. , , '
"There were too many amateur
rural poets contributing to our
waste basket and I specialized in
writing obltuaiies," he said, as he
puffed1 his cigar In a reminiscent
vay. "I soon had the reputation! of
being able to say more nice things
about a paidup deceased subscriber
than any other man on the force
which meant the editor.
"It was not until I went to Alaska
the-last great frontier In the fa
mous rush of 1898 .that I began, to
receive Inspirations from real life
the stirring scenes and adventures
of that awful rush, and to write
verse.
"The Alaska of today is ai play
ground compared to the vast, un
broken, desolate waste that con
fronted the early pioneers of '98.
"Thousands of tourists annually
make the trip North on palatial
steamers and railways, all uncon
scious of the hardships, privations
and sufferings of the early pioneers.
In those days we were dumped; from
the steamers on. the beach at Skag-
iway. All Alaska wa3 ours. Two
thlrds of the argonauts, turned back
as they gated upon an unbroken
mountain range 'that must be cross
ed on foot.
"Every . man was his own. trans
portation company a good pair of
'trail boots' and a pair of 'pack
straps' A CO-pound pack was enough
for moat of us. It required about
two months packing by slow tedious
relays back and forth over the pass
to land a year's outfit at Lake Ben
nett where we whipsawed lumber,
made, pur boa'.s and embarked for
the Klondike
"We will never know how many
hundreds of ai venturers ended their
Journey at the bottom of the Yukon
Those were stirring times and now
as I look back upon them I would
not go through the first four years
of my northern experience for all
the gold la Alaska.
"But then there were bright spots
too. and I shall never recret the
experience.
"The tale of trat historic rush con
tains enough human Interest, thrill
Ing adventures, tragedy aiftl com
edy, humor and pathos to command
the interest of generations to
come." '
Since being "discovered' Mr. Rob
bison has consented to deliver two
lectures in the Enterprise opera
on Tueaiay an'd Wednesday of the
coming week, August 30 and 31. Tbe
first evening will be devoted to
Tbe Malamutes," a humorous lec

author will recite several of his moat
popular humorous and pathetic poems
written on "the trail."
On, the following evening Mr. Rob
son wall dlscuse present social con
ditions in a philosophical discourse
on titled1 "The Spirit of the' Age."
Mr. Robinson, has made a place
for himself In literary circles by
lii3 original rtyle of portraying North
ern life. "Slwash Pete," a story of
an Indian boy, a hero of the, famous
tYhlte Horae Rapids and Miles Can
yon, has been pronounced by Ople
Reade and other well known writers
to be superior to John Hays' famous
'Jim Bludsce." The MoKlnley Me
morial poem has received world-wide
recognition for the author and is
conceded to be an American, classic.
Acute or. Chronic Which?
No matter If your kidney trouble Is
icute or chronic Foley's Kidney
Remedy will reach your case. Mr.
iiaude - Brown, Reynoldsvllle, 111,
vriues us that he suffered many
months with kidney complaint which
brJfled all treatment. At last he
tried Foley's Kodney Remedy and a
'ew largo bottles effected a complete
cure. He says, "It has beem of in
estimable vailue to me." Burnaugh
