Word comes down from Union Bay that the salmon trollers of that region have organized the AL aska Trollers Protective Associa- ton and plan to ship their fish di- rect to Seattle and the southern markets instead of selling to the mild-curers.

They will secure agents in Tacoma and Portland, in add ition to Seattle and mnke the org anization permanent if possible. The first shipment of fish will be made on June 5th. Miner.

Will Take
 Liquor Census

The census of the grown white population of Wrangell will be taken this week according to in formation given out yesterday by Judge Thomas who received his instructions from Judge Jennings at Juneau. The object of this is to get the expressed opinions of the residents of the town on the liquor question. Heretofore when a saloon asked for the renewal of their license they circulated a peti-
 ton getting the names of the per sons willing that they should sell liquor in the town, but under the new law 1t requires that the cen sus of the whole town be taken and that every legal American be asked to state his opinion, but that the census must have the names of the residents of the city and that they either state 'yes", mo-,
 non-commital or mot seen" af- Ter their names, before a new lic- ense will be issued to any saloon in the town. Another point in the new law is that the one census will do tor each of the saloons, but that no matter whot the number of sig ners it has nothing to do with the number of saloon licenses that are tobe issues, that is all left in the hands of the District Judge, and at any time he sees fit be may re- fuse a license to any particular person if he thinks they are not fit to handle the business in a law

respecting way. Judge Thomas appointed c. E. Webber and Earl West to take the census, and they will begin on their duties tomor- row. Another matter of the law is that the compensation of col lecting the census must be met by the saloon men.

satan was always on the job to have
them put Il off a little while. That
anyone can escape hell and its eternal
