Opening Argument.
On resumption of court at = o'clock,
Henry p Knight began his address and
lad only spoken ten minutes when he Was
taken sick, and court adjourned, first for
one hour and later for the day; During
the time he spoke, knight said:
Gentlemen of the jury. it has been
stated that the defendant is MEMBER OF
the Western Federation, but it is not for
you to deliberate TO what class the man
charged with murder belongs, or what his
connections are Ii is your sole duty TO
decide whether or not he fired the bullet
that killed Fred Tyler. To certain ex-
tent this case will depend on the identlfl-
cation of the remains found IN MarDie
Creek district. and with regard to this
point l do not think there viii be any
question in your mind We have intro
duced as witnesses the mother of the
murdered man and his friends. and II
would seem that the identity has been
proved beyond all question of a doubt.

Tyler Killed in August.
''You have the whole field before 1896
in front of you. We believe that evidence
introduced by the defense has only
helped to confirm the case of the state
and we are satisfied that Tyler was killed
during the month of August. He was
killed at a place where dates cannot well
be remembered; in fact, where it was al
most impossible to find dates unless they
are fixed by some event of unusual In
portanee The case on the part of the
state rests on the testimony of Archie
Phillips. Mrs. Phillips Chandler and other
minor witnesses. and ii is to be noted
that the confession of defendant from the
beginning TO the end fixes only one date,

Incapable of Doinq Business.

Early in January. it is said, Mr. Glover
during a visit to Concord. was enabled
to have short talk with his mother and
after due consideration he decided on the
present action as an imperative duty too
long neglected. Specifically the bill al
leges THAT the nominal plaintiff. Mrs
Eddy. who sues by her next friend. !"
has for a long time been Incompetent to
do business or understand transa ctions
conducted in her name. The next allie
cation is that the defendants have pos
Sessed themselves of her personal proper
~ and have carried on her business.
IL is also alleged that. having done this,
knowing of her infirmity, they have be-
come trustees for nearly all of her prop
erty which has come into their possession.
and are bound to give account thereof
and of all the transactions in her name.
1t is declared that there is reason to
fear that the defendants wrongfuliy con-
verted some of her property to their own
Use. and that there are transactions of
which an account should be given
John w. Kelly, of Portsmouth. and the
firm of Martin & Howe. Of Concord. will
appear as counsel in the case for the
plaintiff, with former Senator Chandler
acting as special counsel.

Statement of Counsel.

Mr. Chambers statement follows:
George w. Glover and his daughter
Miss Mary Baker Glover. have investi-
gated the condition of Mrs. Mary Baker
Glover Eddy at Concord n. II. MIR
Glover had for some time inclined to be
lieve that Mrs. Eddy, in her old age. 50
years now, has been growing too feeble
in body and mind To attend to executive
and important business matters. but per
sons living with Mrs. Eddy, well as
her relatives, had persistently prevented
any other persons. even her relatives,
from having any momentary interview
with her. that Mr.. Glover had not been
able to test his fears by any prolonged
visit He and his daughter, however. Oh
Jan were permitted to see Mrs. Eddy
for three-quaTters of an hour. and the
result of that interview was to confirm
their aprehensions and to convince them
that she was not capable of transacting
business.
Her Mind cIouded.
.'She was weak bodily and her mind
was ciouded and enfeebled and possessed
bv strange and erratic notions. II was
clear to them that il was not insanity,
but that her mental faculties were so inn
paired that she could not attend TO finan-
cial affairs nor give intelligent direction
to any business of Importance.
Various incidents connected with their
stay and facts which they learned from
several sources tended to strengthen these
conclusions as to Mrs. Eddys incapacity
for business Mr. Glover and his daughter
further learned that Mrs. Eddy's secular
business seems to be larger than ever
She is still president Of the Metaphysical
College of Healing. and heads a body OF
3.4O9 practicing healers. though she does
not personally give treatment.

A peculiar incident varied the monotony of the court at Skagway. A jury, having a case under advise ment. accepted box of cigars tender ed through the bailiff, and smoked them. When the judge heard of it, he fired the jury and also the bailiff, fined the latter 5000, and roasted the man who furnished the smokes. These Alaska juries are peculiar.

An effort is being made in Skagway to have Judge Gunnison dissolve the Haiues precinct and have all cases in Haines tried at Skagway. The people of Haines are bitterly opposed to this proceeding, as it will work against the interests of the town and take business away that should stay at home. We have the "Home Rule" fever right here in Haines and feel that we can take care of our little difficulties without any assistance from our over.zealous and accommodating sister, Skagway. Why not appoint commissioner and marshal for Haines and make start towards "home ruIe?"-The Musher.

Concerns Which Flourish and Wax Fat off Food Fishes of Alaska and Operate Under Very CCnVen-
 tent License Laws

tent License Laws
 Through the generosity of the federal government, infant industries in the form of large salmon packing canneries in Alaska are practically immune from taxation. These concerns are operat- ing and yearly reaping golden harvest in the waters of this territory, and yet through the machinations of law, manifestly conceived and passed at the behest of these packing companies, they escape a legitimate tax for doing business in Alaska. In striking con- travention to this state of affairs, every small business is required to pay a license tax ia order to operate ill this northern country. Tho man of moderate meaus has no subterfuge to hide behind, no pliable law by which to escape the prescribed tax on his vocation.
 Section ? of the Act, says that every private hatchery operated in Alaska shall be exempt from all licenses, fees and taxation of any nature, "at the rat of an cases of canned salmon to every 1000 salmon fry liberated" The tax on canned salmon is 1 cents per case. These cannery concerns operate hatcherie5 in connection with their business, otherwise the fish supply would soon be depleted, at the enor- nous rate the salmon are being con- sumed. A matter of self-preservation actuates them to do this-not desire to perform a great service. One of the concerns liberated several million sal mon fry in the First division. Conse. quentIy, their canneries at Bristol bay, in the Third division 2,80O miles away, are allowed credit on their salmon tax to the amount of over S2O,OOO. In other words, for every 1000 salmon fry liberated, ten cases of canned salmon escape taxation.
 With the approval of the secretary of commerce and labor, a private hatchery at Karluk, owned by pack ing company, released 24, 842,812 salmon fry. It receives for every 1000 fry, as stated before a free tax on ten cases of salmon. An elementery student of mathematics can thus readily deter mine how much revenue this concern pays to Alaska for the privilege of fish ing within it's confines.
 In whose fertile brain did such law evolve? And what do these packing concerns give to Alaska in return for the privilege of practically supplying the world with salmon from its waters? They buy their supplies on the outside bring cheap labor from the states, and like birds of passage come in the spring and go in the fall.
 An investigation of this salmon pack ing business reveals a condition that should be corrected, and that without delay. Indeed, the vigorous objection to a territorial form of government on th5 part of some prominent men of the north can easily be traced to the fish, ing industry. Under a system of home government these companies would undoubtedly be made to pay an equit- able sax to assist in maintaining the government. If the present system maintains, the government will soon be paying them premium for doing business here.-Valdez Prospector.
