Representative Arthur G. Shoup, of Sitka. has introduced a bill in the House of Representatives, authorizing the incorporation of Cities of the Sec, ond Class" in Alaska. The bin gives the inhabitants of any town having fifty or more inhabitants the right to incorporate as a city of this class. The bill makes the governing body of the proposed second class municipal ities board of three trustees, and de fines their powers. The towns of this class are not given the right to par ticipate in the proceeds of the license or occupation taxes collected by the federal government. The method of procedure in establishing second class cities will be similar to that now DOT vided by law for other municipalities except that they winm fl fl fl except that proceedings will be before the United States commissioner in stead of the district court
 The powers and limitations of the second class cities are set forth in the bill as follows:
 "First-To provide suitable rules governing their own body and to elect one of their members president, who shall be ex-ofIicio mayor.
 "Second-To make rules for all cleo tions in said city of the second class.
 "Third-To provide for necessary street improvements. fire protection, water supply, all lights, wharfage, sew. craze. protection of public health and expense of assessment and collection of taxes.
 'Fourth-To impose and collect a poll tax on electors, tax on dogs and cats, a general tax on real and per sonal property, and possessory rights and improvement provided no such tax shall exceed one.third of one percent um of the assessed valuation of prop erty. and all assessments made by the assessor of the corporation of the sec class shall be subject to review by the council; provided, further, no bonded indebtedness shall be author ized for any purpose.
 Nothing in this act shall be con- strued to give said incorporation of the second class any authority over or right to any monies collected there in under the provision of the act of Congress approved March 3, 1899, en- titled "An Act to Define and Punish Crimes in the District of Alaska, and to Provide a Code of Criminal Proceed ure in said District" or any amend ments made thereto"

Legislators Desire
 Ideas for a Seal

A bill is being prepared by members of the House of Representatives adopt ing new seal for the Territory of Alaska, and the members would be pleased to have suggestions from resi- dents of the Territory as to a design for the seal. The seal that is being used now is for the District of Alas ka." and passage of the organic act for the Territory removed any and all controversy over the question as to whether or not it is the District of Alaska" or the Territory of Alaska" It is conceded now by those that re- fused to follow the decision of the United States supreme court that it is the "Territory of Alaska" Hence the action of the members of the Leg islature in preparing a bill establish ing a seal for the Territory.
 It is planned to introduce the bill some time next week, and the mem- bers would be pleased to have sugges- tions before that time. All suggestions will be given earnest consideration.
 A preliminary step toward the prop osition of creating a new seal, Repre- sentative F. M. Boyle, of Valdez, had passed in the House a few days ago a resolution requesting Gov. Walter E. Clark to submit to the House all correspondence between his office and that of the Secretary of the Territory, William L. Distin, in relation to the adoption of the seal now used. The correspondence was submitted to the House this morning.
