New Alaska Liquor Law


 The house committee on territories has reported favorably the new liquor license bill for Alaska. which has al- ready passed the senate, so that the probabilities are that it will become law at the present session. There was a suggestion advanced, which had some danger in 1t. that, in lieu of at license system, the sale of liquors in. Alaska should be absolutely prohibited but fortunately this mistake was not made by congress.
 For many years there was theoreticaaa prohibition in Alaska. That Is, con- gress had passed an act forbidding the importation or sale of liquor in Alaska, save for scientific, sacra- mental or mechanical purposes" In the last analysis, the enforcement or all such laws rests with the trial juries, and no jury could ever be found in Alaska to convict man of selling liquor, unless, indeed, he sold to an Indian, in which latter case public sen timent demanded conviction.
 In proportion to population, there were ten times as mauy places in Alaska where liquor was sold, under theoretical prohibition, than there is now, under system of high license. The license money supports the schools of the territory in great part. More over, in the old prohibition days, when the customs officers seized liquor on importation, whenever they could find it, illicit distilleries were run liter ally by the hundreds. Even the na- tives learned the business, and almost every village had its moonshine estab- lishmeut, manufacturing "hootchinoo," as 1t was called.
 Under license and regulation saloons have decreased in number and i'm proved in tone, while illicit distilling has disappeared save in remote places out uf the reach of the officers of the laW.-P..I.

May Make A Camp

There is much likelihood that the Koyukuk region in the vicinity of Nolan creek will develop into a great mining camp. The recent reports of rich gold discoveries there cause most of us to believe that the country has an exceptionally bright future, and some have considered the news so encouraging that they are preparing to leave for the new diggings. Inquiry among a few men who have been up the Koyukuk in past years discloses the fact that mining has. been going on there on many streams for years and that many thousands of dollars have been extracted. In fact some of the strikes made have been so fabulousIy rich 1t is very queer that there have not been many big stampedes long before this. It is true that hundreds of men have gone into the country since 1898, practically all of the ground being staked at some time or other, but few have remained for any length of time. Many of those who persevered, however, have been rewarded, and are still work ing ground that has been yielding im- mense profits for years.
 Bnt most of the gold taken out has been from shallow diggings, and up to recently the striking of solid bedrock has been very rare occurrence. It seems, though, that the best values are the deepest, about 200 feet, and from now on the boiler will play most i'm portant part in the prospecting. There is sufficient wood for all fuel pur- poses.-Tanana Miner.

It is with genuine sorrow that The Interloper learns of the early depart ure of Father Bougis, who is to be shortly transferred to another parish likely one in California. Father Bougis is one of the quiet, kindly souls whose very presence makes for the good of all with whom he comes in con- tact. He has labored long years in the Indian sections of Montana before coming north and here in Alaska his posts have generally been hard and trying ones. For some time Father Bougis has not been, we'll and while his departure will be deeply regretted some consolation may be derived from Che knowledge that in the end the change may result in his restoration to his good self once more.-skagway Interloper.

William P. Richards, a well known
Salt Laker, died at the home of his
father Henry P. Richards, 1853 Second
avenue, shortly after Z o'clock last eve

somewhat impaired for some time from
bronchial troubles, the end was en-
tirely unexpected and came with a
suddenness that was most shocking to
the family.
During Sunday Mr.. Richards seemed
as well as usual and was about town
part OF the day. He ate lunch at home
and dined at the home of his sister,
Mrs. Alonzo Young. Soon after arriv.
ing home again a violent coughing spell
occurred which resulted in death.
The deceased was born in this city
4S years ago. For several years past
he has followed mining, owning prop
critics in the Deep Creek country. He
is survived by his parents, Henry p.
and Minerva Empey Richards, and
two sisters, Mrs. Alonzo Young and
Mrs. Richard w. Young. MI. Richards
was unmarried. The funeral will be

Ogden. Oct. 19.--How is the "Ameri-

The first postconvention symptom
has appeared in the form of somer-

written to a local evening paper declin-
ing positively to have his name used
on the American" ticket.

closes with declaration that he is

free lance on all state issues"
An interesting question concerning
the future is as to what extent other
candidates will follow the lead of MIR.
Griffith. The advent of the Amer
can party in Ogden was heraldcd by Il
trio of politicians of the old school, who
had become dissatisfied, ana IL trio of
yunSsters who weren't willing to wait
their chances TO have their way III

The people generally are adhering
closely to old party lines. and it is a
certainty that very few american

BATTLE IN COON TOWN
Several Negroes Pay Heavily This Morn.
 ing for froIic at Reg of Beer.

There was a young battle fought last night in the negro quarters north of the power house, in which there was a gen. erai display of guns and knives andi a liberal use of fists. While no one was seriously hurt, one or two negro women received bruises on the face and head that were much in evidence in the mayors court this morning. The row started at a keg of beer, where some 15 or 20 negroes, men and women, had gathered to imbibe.
 The police were notified of the disturbance by the white people living on West Front street, and immediately went to the scene, taking charge of and locking up the principal belligerents.
 At the trial this morning, the mayors docket shows the follow ing results:
 Henry Herd, carrying a gun, ?fined $50 and costs
 Ed Dixon, disturbing the peace fined $5 and costs.
 The same charge was made against Mark Hicks, Mandy Roy stOn and Sallie Johnson, and they were each fined S5 and costs.
 Others who were implicated in the trouble have not vet been arrested, but the officers expect to have them in court soon.
