The LeqisIature

The Alaska lawmakers have spent the past week in Che most vigorous exercise of earning their stipend by the sweat of their jaws. lt is also becoming plainly marked that this ses- sion will hold its own with the one that is gone before, in the way of memorials and resolutions.
 A week ago Tanner, of Skagway, was the engineer of a startling resolution on the fish question, taking hard slap at the ignorance of fish commissioners in general and Commissioner Jones in particular It will without doubt re- ceive the attention which it deserves, filed away in some dark pigeon hole with hundreds of others.
 The House devoted full day to vital statistics, giving the members an op- portunity to display statesmanship and their knowledge on the question of illegitimacy.
 Sep. Sulzer, of Sulzer, is not dis heartened by the storm of protest which the division of the forest reserve money brought forth, but comes for ward this week with a plea for wireless stations at Sulzer, Craig and Tokeen, three isolated points on Prince of Wales island.
 The house put in all one day on Driscolrs election bill. Elaborate bal- lots were suggested, perhaps bearing party slogans, but it was agreed that the U. s. government should be stuck for the printing bill.
 Friday was largely given over to h. dian matters A senate bill would allow them, under certain conditions, to vote, the same as they can under the federal law. Representative Shoup is strong for an appropriation of Sl25OOO by the government for Indian hospitals in the territory.
 On Saturday, Representative Coombs attempt to extend the provisions of his bill to repeal the Sunday closing law to include saloons, was knocked cold. As this is about the only part of the law now enforced, it begins to look like "what's the use."
 Five new bills were introduced yes terday. Que by Rep Held to punish wife deserters; one by Rep. Heckman to amend the banking laws In tbe Senate: By Gaustad, authorizing mu- nicipalities Co grant franchise to public service corporations; by Aldrich, Co regulate the collection of medical and ho pitaI fees by an employer from an employe; by Hubbard, to authorize the organization of trust companies.
 The general 8 hour day in mines 0iIl has been ordered eugrossed The wolf bounty bill is not yet out of the woods. An amendment proposes to limit the bounty moneys to SlO,OOO in the next two years. Even this amount would pay the funeral expenses of a thousand wolves

Marshal William Shafer rendered his resignation to the city council last Monday night. After discussing the matter the council decided he was a good servant and laid his communica. ton on the table
 The pupils of the Douglas High school gave a backwards" party at the school house last Friday night. They wore their clothes hind side before, ate their lunch the first thing and per. formed a number of other amusin' stunts.
 Mir. B. B. Gilman, formerly manager of the Go Operative store in Douglas, leaves for the South on the Alameda. After visiting the coast cities and taking in the big exposition at San Francisco, he expects to return to Alaska.
 The Douglas Island Co.Operatiye store closed its doors last week and the merchandise on hand was sold to the Treadwell company. We are in- formed that the venture was not pay ing one, mainly on account of the large expense of operation.
 David A. Epsteyu, of Juneau, died last Thursday at Los Angeles, Calif' He came to Alaska in 1899, and during all of the years of his residence in the North he held the confidence and es- teem of his fellow citizens. A wife, a son and a daughter survive him.
 It is announced that employees of the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Go. and the Alaska Treadwell Gold Mining Go. are to be Qivenau opportunity to invest their surplus earnings in the stock of the Alaska Juneau on the same basis as Mir. Bradley and his friends. Many are coming forward with their sub scriptions.
 The Elks Minstrels entertained an abbreviated audience for three hours last night at the Lyric. They were a friendly bunch aud did their best to please and amuse. John Mclaughlin, ticket taker and boss, said that they didn't come over to Douglas to make money, but just to show themselves. Anyway, Mac celebrated the twentieth anniversary, to the very hour and min. ute, of his arrival in Alaska, right here in Douglas. John T. Spickett, veteran actor, did most of the hard work. His name was left off The program, but he was expected to sing on the ferry boat going home. Some of those young Elks think they can sing as good as John, but they can't. The Juneau Elks have been giving minstrel shows for the past fifteen years, but this was the most elaborate affair of them all.

Pine County Not Very Popular
Among Latah County People

Moscow, Idaho, June 27.-The we'll
organized campaign to create Pine
county, recently launched, would di-
vorce from Latah county most of the
valuable holdings of the Potlatch
Lumber company and the Washington,
Idaho & Montana railway company,
extending from the Idaho Washington
line on the west to the Idaho Montana
state line on the east, an area about
12O miles long. and "a miles wide.
The move has caused sensation here.
The plan is to take the largest part
of Latah county, with small portion
of land of limited value of Kootenai,
,Shoshone and Clearwater counties.
18 TOWNSHIPS OFF LATAH
The proposed lines would include
about 18 townships from Latah coun-
ty, leaving t only about 13 town
ships. Latah is an important county
in population and valuation, while
one of the smallest in area in Idaho.
If divided as planned that portion re-
manning would be the smallest in area
of any in the state. The proposed
county would include Potlatch, Prince

Laudable Example

The Clearwater Republican would
suggest that SO far rs possible the
EXAMPLE set by Frank Jones, in hav-
ing the brick for his new building
made in Orofino. by local labor, be
followed by others. 1t is the spirit
thst spells prosperity for OUR CON-
MUNiTY. We are not saving money
when we send it out of OUR TOWN.
And we might add. it applies to print
ing, along with other things.
Idaho Falls offers a splendid exam
pie Of this spirit. The business men
are loyal to thier home town. They
are consistent, too. They practice
what they preach. They buy their
printing at home. The other day a
travelling representative of an outside
concern canvassed Idaho Falls bust
ness men for printing. He got moth
ing. He WAS told they had home cor
Germs, employing home labor, who
spend their wages in Idaho Falls, ant
the home concerns would get the bust
ness. That pays.
The White Pine is doing right by
Orofino when it buys at home, and tn,
spirit of loyalty to Orofino will return
many fold in years to come.

occasionally.


Following, from the Moscow, (La~
tab County, Inland Empire Farmer,
illustrates the point: A couple Of
splendid examples of road work ac-
compIished by the farmers without
calling for county aid have been ac-
complished just recently between Mos
COW and Genesee. In road district
No. 10, south of town, the farmers
under the leadership Of N. A. Nelson
road overseer. have cut down one of
the most troublesome grades on the
road between Moscow and Genesee.
Several hundred dollars worth of work
was contributed by the farmers in the
district. 1t was due to the labor of
practically the same farmers that the
road Just south of town was also i'm
proved, south of Main street An
other improvement to be recorded is
in road district No. 8, where cutoff
has been made through the Martin An
derson and Frank Griesser places,
through sections % and 80 in townshi p
.38. The cost of securing the right of
way and the labor was donated by the
farmers residing in the district. This
cutoff eliminated bad hill, and is a
valuable improvement. Chas. Ebel is
the overseer.

right direction.

right direction.
The new block, which is to be one
story, will be constructed with a view
to carrying one or two additional
stories later when Orofino grows to
demand it. 1t will be the home of
the White Pine Company, of which
Mr.. Jones is manager, and will be
one of the best business locations in
the town, having the post Office inn
mediately in the rear.
Before planning this investment Mr..
Jones took trip to the Coast, visit
ing various places and looked into
their prospective future. He found
nothing that looked as good to him as
Clearwater county and Orofino, and is
satisfied to settled down and become a
permanent fixture. He believes there
is big future for us; that it is only
matter of time when our lime and
cement and timber and water power
and agricultural resources, hardly yet
touched, will be developed, and that
now is the time to get located.

Commendsble Shows

Probably few greater stories have
ever been presented on the moving
picture stage than that entitled "Who
Pays" now running every Tuesday
night at the Rex. Last Tuesday it
was the story of a young bank cash.
Ter, drawing $1,000 per annum, who
marries girl who drove him to crime
to satisfy her expensive and reckless
tastes. He stole and gambled. and
in the end murder was committed,
and that girl suffered because her own
brother was sent to prison for her
folly. This picture, ever true to
life, ever being played over in r. al
life, is brought out with vividness
that leaves a lasting and beneficial
impression on those who are fortunate
enough to see it. There is series
of twelve in "Who Pays" the next
being that of young woman who
makes believe she loves an old mar
because he is rich. The title is
"Love LIARS and it is gripping ir
it's intense interest. Each of these il
a complete human problem in itself,
and Manager Pauley should be giver

good judgment in presenting SO worth!
