ually there are one or two libel suits

The Compton Case.
The plaintiff in the above action
was modest. She only wanted ten
thousand dollars for something this pa
per said about her in connection with
the recent Hilo High School scandal,
Commissioner Pope having been
quoted. Ten thousand was only a
starter for The Advertiser. Only a
short time ago discontinuances were
filed in suits totaling fifty thousand.
The Advertiser has been pressing for
trial in the Compton action, Attorney
Lorrin Andrews having notified Mr..
Carlsmith for this paper that action
was wanted in order that the testimony
of Doctor Richmond, who is now on
the mainland, could be taken and that
the expense would have to be paid by
the plaintiff in case the action went
against her. The answer of Mr.. Carl
smith is the discontinuance quoted.

DUCK HUNTING IN BIPLANE

MINEOLA, N. Y., Dec. II. - Lee Hammond, in Captain Thomas $. Baldwin's red biplane, had William Simonson up for duck shooting.
 Simonson fired into flock as the machine was over Hempsted village. One duck fell and was grabbed by boy.
 Returning toward Minola, they ran into large flock of starlings. Again Simonson fired and killed several.
 The mechanics then arranged a spring that threw a tin can into the air as a target, making good prac- tice for several rounds.
 Simonson shot three blackbirds with as many shots. Two sparrows sitting on a branch of a tree also fell victims to his craftsmanship.

COMMITTEE WILL
 HELP US

SEATTLE, Dee. II. - The com prehensive character of the Alaskg Bureau of the New Seattle Chamber of Commerce and the wide scope ot its activities are indicated by tn, several standing committees to bt announced in the near future by Chairman J. E. Chilberg of the bur eau committee. These committees are being selected with the greatest care from the men best fitted to ac. complish things in the lines for which they are chosen. and as the number of committees is not limit. ed. they will. it is believed. prove a very powerful influence in the work fir Alaska.
 There will be a land transportation committee which will consist of not less than five members and will han dle the propaganda for additional railroads and highway facilities in the North.
 A water transportation committee consisting of net less than three members will look after the shipping development of Alaska. getting gov crnment surveys of harbors. charting channels, appropriations from con gross foi additional lights. fog sig nals, lighthouses and other naviga- ton aids and promoting every branch of activity that will tend to improve water transportation between Seat- tie and Alaska
 There will be a committee on fisheries of not less than three mem bers. enc on mines and mining of similar size. and one on agriculture whose duties will be not only to dis seminate information regarding the agricultural resources and advantages Of certain Alaska districts, but to secure the survey and opening by the government for settlement of the vast agricultural lands of the North.
 One of the most important of the committees in the preliminary work of the bureau will be the mer- cantile affairs committee. whose du- ties will include everything tending to promote larger and more satis- factory trade relations between Alas ka and the cities of the United States The committee will act as a clearing house for matters of complaint in the North against mer- cantile concerns of the Outside and will bring about, if possible, a bet ter understanding of the rights and duties of both sides of the question
 The committee will take up the matter of trade excursions to Alas ka, similar to those which have been sent from Seattle the last summer to Aberdeen. Wenatchee and other parts Of the state, and which in the past have been sent to China, Ja- pan and other foreign nations by the cities of the coast Ii is an ticipated that the coming year will see large and representative par ty of business men of this city mak- ing a trip through Southeastern, Central, Northwestern and South eastern Alaska to get in closer touch with the business and other interests of the North.
 The standing committees will in- elude one on finance and one oh entertainment. The work of all the committees will provide a truthful exploitation of the exact conditions in Alaska, and incidentally will ad- vertise it's wonderful scenery, re sources and other attractions to draw toulists and other travel 10 that Sprtinn
