This brought forth an impassioned
disclaimer from Harris as to the in
situation that he was bringing up the
race question, saying he was here for
all the people. Fernandez declared
that the remark he made was due to
the question as to personality. He said
everyone knew the deputy was his own
brother and he did not like the at
lacks. The Kumalae amendment fix
ing the salary at $3.50 was then passed.
Greenwich offered an amendment
cutting down the salary of the jailor
at Oahu prison from $1,000 to 5000 be-
cause of the fact that he had been
given an assistant, but he could not
find a second
LEPER SETTLEMENT BUTCHER.
Aylett said he had brother. who is
the butcher at the I1eper Settlement
for a salary of $50 a month. He NOV
ed that this be increased to SIS, as his
brother bought all supplies here and
would not stay unless he got more sal
ary The House took its luncheon re-
cess during the discussion and when
the matter was taken up again 1t was
with a new amendment that the general
appropriation for the settlement be re-
duced by $500 and new item for the
Butcher at Kalaupapa, $3.50" be in
serted, which motion was carried.
Aylett then got into the Public
Works department and moved the
elevation of the salary of the first as
sistant clerk and bookkeeeper to $1,000,
to which the House assented.

AGAINST THE SECRETARY.

AGAINST THE SEC
When the committee had reconvened
Vida moved to strike out the item in
Commissioner of Immigration. He said
that the office of Secretary was a
Federal one, in that the officer was
appointed by the President, and he
thought that the Office should be under
some territorial head.
Keliinoi advanced the idea that the
Legislature had appropriated a sum for
advertising the territory, had put that
money under the Secretary and if that
officer should refuse to place the fund
at the disposal of the new official, the
immigration commissioner would find
that he had no funds to carry on his
work.
Kumalae objected to having the ap-
preparation under the Secretary's Of
flee and the vote following his address
the item was stricken out. Vida at
der the Treasury department Com
missioner of immigration and Adver-
Using Agent, $780, Keliinoi made
several points of order against the
item being reinserted after being once
stricken out, but Greenwich stood to
his guns and finally the item was in
serted under the Treasury department
according to the Vida motion.
GOES THROUGH NEXT TIME.
This was all the business before the
committee and it at once rose and re-
ported and the bill was at once de-
clared to be on final passage. To this
Harris raised a question as to whether
was sufficient to pass the bill. The
vote was unanimous there being twen-
ty-four ayes and the speaker declared
the bill passsd third reading
Speaker Beckley laid before the
House a letter from DR.. Taylor say

The House then took up considera-
ton of Senate Bill No. 9, the commit
tee having the consideration of the
expenses of the band re-
porting first. The committee specified
the appropriations as follows: To East /
two trips at $3.50 each, $500; |
to West Hawaii. two trips at $3.50. |
$500; to Maui, two trips at 5000 each.
$500; to Kauai, two trips at $3.50, $500; |
to Oahu country districts. 500; total. |
$4,000. In addition the committee SUBJ
mitted a new bill appropriating $1,000
for the bands expenses during the re-
six months of this year.
There was some discussion over the
report, Keliinoi moving to amend by
taking $500 from the amount appropri-
ated for East Hawaii and making a !
new item of one trip to Molokai. $500. !
The amendment was made with only
four dissenting votes.

Negatives are Better
The Kodak Developing Machine
will prove invaluable to the out
door photographer and the sports
man, as il will enable them to see
the results before leaving camp and
find their mistakes before it is too
late to make the pictures over
again. AS consequence of the
prompt development that it makes
possible, the negatives are cleaner
and better than those that any but
the most expert can get by the old
method, and all this without the
bother of darkroom and ruby lamp
al surprised at the latitude in ex-
posture that the machine allows.

Cordial Reception.

The public greeting to Senator Heyburn and Representative Cush- man and their ladies arranged by the cha mber of commerce and the A. B. society last Monday. was in every way flattering success. Ad- mirably prepared it was generously responded 10 by guests and citizens.
 Both the distinguished gentle men made addresses. MT. Cush- man, among other things, referred to the resources of this section and the superior location of Valdez for the building of a great city. He urged upon us the necessity for cul- tivating the highest type of Ameri- can citizenship, for il required just such men and women to siege rugged nature by the neck and wiring from her civilization He extended encouragement for the wagon road and other government al aids,an closed proiuse in thanks for the courtesies conferred.
 Senator Hcyburn also spoke of the grea, aid true ci;izen.hl,, is in the development of new country; he cited Alaska as an example that this country with all it's rich s had been here for ages yielding no benefit to mankind, but now, with the work of the brave American, it i- fast becoming marvel of the world. He was lavish in his praise of everything Alaskan. .Predicted that Valdez would be one of the great cities on the Pacific ocean. He promised his aid in congress and assured us that wagon road would be built, that railroads would he aided and everything good for Us accorded by the gov ernment. He urged that we increase our pop ulation. taxable property, &c., and get ready to run our own govern ment.

Cutting AHray.

The schooner Marion Ida. with about thirty people mostly fisher men aboard and a cargo of general supplies, bound for Sand Point. Alaska. left san Francisco about the first of October. On the even ing of the fifteenth one of tine fisher men named J. Guke, without any apparent cause, suddenly jumped from his bunk and attacked all in tine forecastle with a razor. He slashed right and left and succeeded in carving four men before they escaped. Two of tine victims receiv- ed frightful wounds across their necks and almost bled to death. The slasher held possession of his quarters for4S hours till starvation finally forced him to surrender. He was brought to Valdez with four witnesses and will probably V be put on trial at the present term Oi court.

Season Closed.

AFoGNAK, Oct. 2l.-The A. P. A. steamer Unimak arrived at Letnik bay from Karluk, Oct. 9th, which marks the closing of the salmon fishing season around here. and perhaps in all Alaska. She arrived in the evening with Mir. Bankow- sky, the superintendent of the Kar- lux cannery, his wife, bookkeeper and others, and left next morning hound for San Francisco via Ko- diak.
 Two A. P. A. steamers-K odiak and Afognak-are laid up for the winter in Letnik bay.
 The salmon pack around here for the last season was as follows: A. r. A. in Kariuk. S9,OOO; South End, 25,00O; Chignik bay, 5l,OOO cases, of red salmon.
 P. P. x N. Co.'S pack was: Uyak bay, about 36,OOO; Chignik bay, 63,0OO cases of red salmon.
 A number of persons are arriv- ing from other parts of Alaska to do some prospecting. and also try the beach diggings around our is- lands the coming winter; and a few fishermen stayed behind with the same intent.
 Placer gold is found almost on any beach which is exposed to heavy sea surf and where glacial deposits are in evidence; but not always in paying quantities. No fortunes have been made; still there were dug from these beaches by some for,unates enough for a grubstake to keep them through the winter.
 A new discovery of copper ledge has been made near Old Harbor, Kodiak island, by native; and Mir. H. Wander has discovered a ledge of the same metal also behind Black Cape, Afognak island.
 Since last fall until now the group of Kodiak islands produced placer gold approxilnating $15, 900 and from quartz claims, 5000. A. Y.

PLL PAY YOU FOR THAT.

This little parable, by an unknown
author, teaches its own lesson:
a hen trod on a ducks foot. She
did not mean to do it, and il did not
hurt the duck much; but the duck
said, "l'ii pay you for that!s So the
duck few at the old hen, but as she
did 30 her wing struck an cid goose
who stood close by.
"l'll pay you for thatl" cried the
goose, and she flew at the duck; but
as she did so her foot tore the fur of
a cat who was just then in the yard.
"I'il pay you for that.' cried the
cat, and she started for the goose;
but as she did so her claw caught in
the wool Of q sheep. :.
"I'll pay you for that!" cried the
sheep, and she ran at the cat; but as
she did so her foot bit the foot of a
dog who lay In the sun.
Il "P'l pay you for that!" cried he,
and jumped at the sheep; but as he
did so his leg struck an old COW who
stood by the gate.
(, "Pll pay you for thatl' cried she,
and she ran at the dog; but as she
did SO her horn gazed the skin of a
horse who stood by tree.
sI'li pay you for thatl" cried he,
and he rushed at the COW.
What . noise there wasl The horse
iiew at the cow, and the COW at the

the sheep at the cat, and the cat at
the goose, and the goose at the duck,
