NO ELECTION ON
 LIQUOR LICENSES


 Judge Robert W. lenniga holds that an election on Che question Of Issuing llquor licenses is not only not auth orized in Alaska, but that it would probably not be conclusive. The law requires. according to statement modo by Judge Jennings, chat ma jorlty Of Che people that live within two miles of 9 proposed saloon must give assent to the Issuance of a ii. cense before the court can act af- drmatiyely in the premises. and there would be no way to compel people to vote at an election.
 Judge Jenlngs statement was made in the form Of letter to pr. J.. s. hel- fer of Sllagway and printed in tne Sl,agway Alaskan. The letter was dated March 6. and said
 "The court has no power to order an election; and even 1t if did have tho power. it is quite a question in my mind whether an election would be determinatiye of the matter The law provides that unless 9 majority Of the people residing within two miles of the place where the liquor is to be sold signify their assent to the selling of liquor the court shall re- fuse the license.
 Suppose ! should call an election and only 90 per cent of the people living within two miles vote ct that election. and suppose that vote is 5l pei. cent for liquor and 49 per cent. against liquor the court should not grant a license for the reason that the law requires that majority of the people living in any particular place shall signify their assent-not simply @ majority of those who may vote.
 or have thought over the matter o great deal because requests have come from other people that an cleo tion be ordered. and ! have respond ed to all in the same tenor as this letter
 "Alr licenses expire on the first of July. and between this date and that hope to be able to evolve some kind of method which will give me the real sentiments Of the signers to any saloon petition"

 About fifteen years age he came to Alaska. and since that time has been actively interested, with his bro ther In several enterprises in South eastern Alaska. making Ketchikan his headquarters.

THE FIRST BACES
 SUtZER ROAD BILl

Those interested in the success or the bills introduced in the Alaska teg- lislature by Senator charlea A sulzer ana Representative James R. Heck man, providing for the expenditure ot the % per cent. of Che receipts from the Tongass National Forest which have been turned into the Alaska Ter. ritoria Treasury upon the roads of Southeastern Alaska, claim thot they have found seRdment in tho First Di. vision practically unanimous in sup. port of the measure.
 First Division Money Goes Eise-
 Where
 Supporters Of the SulzerHecsman bin, who appeared before tho joint meeting of the Senate and House com mitees on roads yesterday asser Q; that the First Division has been con. tributing to Che Alaska Fund, through the license taxes vast sums annually In excess of the amount which have been expended in the division, which have been used for road and other purposes in other sections of Alaska. They say that in addition to securing Che benefit Of money paid into the AE- asko Fund from Southeastern Alaska, in excess Of the amount expended in this division, ,he other divisions of the Territory have received the benefits of annual appropriations from Com gress, for road purposes, amounting to from S125.000 upwards, for many years.
 Ketohlkan Paper Supports Biii
 The Ketchilan Miner. in supporting the Sul1er-Heckman bin, says:
 '1t seems to this paper that there should be absolutely no question in the minds of the members of the Leg. islature as to where the cash received from the sale of timber in the Forest Reserves should be spent. Custom n an the different reserves of the country has been to pay over to the counties where the reserves exist the cash derived from the sales within such counties. or course there are no county organizations in Alaska, but there are judicial divisions which roughly correspond to counties and as the money under riscussion has come altogether from two of these divisions. there is no logical reason why the money should not be spent in the divisions in which the forests, the sources of the fund are located. No matter what the technicallties of tho matter may appear in the minds of some of the residents of tho inter- for and northern districts. the inten- tion Of Congress and the spirit of fair play, requires that the money should be spent where it was created. and the bills introduced by Senator Sulzer and Representative Hickman should be passed"

 The Eskimo Is g docile being and has splendid qualities until he be. comes contaminated by contact with the worst kind of whites. Ills repu- ,ation for kindness Is high and many white man who has been caught in Q blizzard or any other way where as- sistnnce was needed has always found the poor native to be real and gem erous friend In need Nothing that the government can do for his protec. ton and general beiterment is "too good for him." and perhaps. Che best services that the powers could confer on him is to separate him from the white man.
 Those EsNmos who have entered the reindeer industry are gradually rising 10 a high place Of living. Some of them have herds that number many thousands.

SIGNAL CORPS MEN
 NARROWLY ESCAPE

While Sergeant Douglas and Pri- vate MacFarland were engaged in mak- ins an inspection of the telegraph lines on the government trail, they overlook a man with horse and sled enroute to a little place called Ruby, three miles south Of Beaver Dam.
 It was just at dusk Douglas and MacFarland went forward to help the man. who was having some trouble with his outfit. 4 moment later the snow with a roar started down the mountain side above the trail and inc stantly swept both their sieds a hun- dred feet or more below the trail. The men escape a similar fate by the mar. rowest kind Of a margin.
 The horses were recovered appar- ently uninjured, the men cutting the harness to extricate the animals. At that it was a job requiring the hard est kind of work and patience. ex- haustiug the men completely and forc- ing them to take some rest before they proceeded further. They later got the sleds out of the slide
 This is one of the incidents of line work on the Northern telegraph lines that prove the work of the signal corps boys is mixed up with much real dam ger and also that occasional opDor- tunities arise for helping others. The big trail Is not a garden pathway of roses by any means-( (cordova Times)
