All but two states-Florida and Nevada now have such officials. During the year, Virginia repealed all laws in conflict with the Federal migratory bird law Eleven States had previous ly made their laws conform in whole or in part to the Federal laws. These States are California, Connecticut, Maine, Michigan, New Hampshire, Tennessee, West Virginia, Illinois and Washington.

WHEN TT CAME TO THAT.

A cockney angler, thinking his Highland boatman stinted the respect due him, took him thus to task:
 Look here. my man, you don't seem to know who I am. Do you know my family has been entitled to bear arms for two hundred years
 That's naething,' was the sturdy reply "Hoots, mon, my ancestors have been entitled to bare legs for two thousand years"

them pending before the House com mittees now. The Fisheries Bureau has two or three bills of this nature seeking to get control of all of the fisheries of Alaska, and they have bills, not only in the Senate but in the House, for the repeal of so much of the organic act of the Territory of Alaska as gives the Territorial legis- lature the right even to levy taxes up- on the fisheries of Alaska. Seeking to take over to the Burfau of Fisheries the right of control over them and the power to levy taxes upon them. l am opposed to that system. There are several attempts of this kind be- fore the committees now, this is merely another one.
 imagine the members of this com mission will say, "All that is theoreti- cal and not practical If this authori- ty is needed to prevent the spread of disease and epidemics along the line of this road and to control sanitary conditions, We will give it to the President and no harm will come of it." The bill, of course, is not as bad as it was to start on. But having eliminated the power which think they wanted, which is the right to make police rules and regulations, and asking now only for the right to control sanitation and quarantine, think I can show the committee they don't need it. Of course, there has been strike on this railroad recently and considerable contention between the Alaskan Engineering Commission and the labor organizations over wages, and if this bill had been pass ed the way it was introduced, there would have been no difficulty for the Alaskan Engineering Commission to have formulated rules and regulations signed by the President which would have given them drastic control over the labor situation there. It would have gone much further than that, but whether that was the purpose of putting the word police" in the bill, they know better than do.

PART OF DELEGATE
 WICKERSHAMS STATEMENT
 TO SANITATION CON-

Mir. Wickersham. Mir. Chairman, ] think every member of this commit tee knows how anxious l am to see the Alaskan railroad built and to see it built successfully and well, and certainly every member of the com mittee will understand that l want good order and good quarantine and sanitary conditions along the line of the road in the meantime. Nobody here, neither the chairman of the AL askan Engineering Commission nor the Secretary of the Interior, can wish for better conditions along the road than l do, and if anything is necessary to bring about that sort of a condition along the line of that road 1 want it done. l don't think anything is necessary. Now, of course, the bill before the committee has been very greatly modified since 1 made my first objection to it. The word police has been stricken out and it Is now said the commission does not wish the authority to make police regulations for the government of the people along the line of the road, and in the townsites, but they will let that go. Other amendments have been made in the bill, so finally it has got down to a proposition of giving the President authority to make Quaran- tine and sanitary regulations for the government of the localities along the line of this road, with a penal clause attached so the persons violating the law may be punished if they do vio- late them. Now, lIr. Chairman, l have been trying to get good govern ment established in Alaska. l have been doing everything could to get local government established in AL aska under the usual form applicable to our Territories, and l am meeting with a great deal of difficulty.
 I am doing what l can to extend the American plan of government in Alaska, and 1 am continually meeting with these attempts to switch in there from every bureau in Washington the power for that bureau to make regu- lations for the government of so much of the country that comes under its jurisdiction, and the bill before the committee is another one of the usual attempts.

He was born at Danzig, Germany,
in 1863, and until 1892, when he join

nected with the leading universities
of Germany. Prof. Munsterberg took
an active part in the controversy over

His psychological writings are rec

UNCLE SAM ASKS
Good ROAD FROM
INDIAN SCHOOL
Will Appropriate for Construction
Providing Highway Is Prop
erly Dedicated
PROVISION ALREADY MADE
FOR IMPORTANT ADDITIONS
City Commissioners Expected to
Consider Proposition at Mon
days Session

Congress, which now is giving fa
vorable committee consideration to a
bill appropriating $-5,0Ov for I'M
provements to the Indian school build
ings, and which during the last SEES
sion appropriated $4,000 for a new
boys dormtory, now is ready, Repre-
sentative George M Young advises
the Commercial club to consider the
improvement Of the road leading from
Bismarck to the school.
This is Bismarck's so-callel river
road" on whose improvement the riv-
er crossing committees of the Man.
dan and Bismarck commercial clubs
recently concentrated their attention.
Bismarck long has suffered in silence
the Inconvenience and dangers of
this highway, but inspectors Of the
department of the interior who have
travelled over it do not regard the
thoroughfare suitable for the use of
Uncle Sans little redskin wards, and
what Bismarck has failed to do may
be done by a federal appropriation
The result would be mile Of model
roadway, paved probably with con,
crete or tar macadam. Uncle Sam
however, will not consider building
this highway on mooted right-of-way
and the Commercial club, while Rep
resentative Young is looking after the
Washington end Of the undertaking,
will seek to have dedicated public
highway, properly laid out and in such
a location as may best meet the Unit
ed States Indian bureaus approval.
Action on the part of the city com
mission is expected as soon as City
Engineer Atkinson can make sur.
'vey and draw up plans and specifica
tions for the construction of the read
to the ferry landing.
1t is hoped that something tangible
will come before the commission in
the near future. Sentiment is strong
ly in favor of improving conditions.
Those working for the completion of
such a road want it in shape when
traffic becomes heavy in the spring.

OF PROVISIONAL JUR1sTs
Declares Supreme Court Justices
Have No Right to 1mpro-

An unexpected development in the
supreme court squabble came today.
when State Auditor Carl Jorgenson
was formally served by Justice-elect
J. E. Robinson with notice warning
him that he would be held legally re-
sponsible should he recognize any
warrants for December salary pre-
sented by the retiring supreme court
justices.

ing December 4, 1885, the Justice
elect says:

the constitution, and their certificates
Of election, you are cautioned against
paying them any salary or giving
them warrant for any salary for the
month Of December. 1915. If you
should give them warrant for the
December salary, it will put the state

suit against you and against them
to recover the same. You may please
see in the Office of secretary of state

ASKS UNCLE SAN
FOR NORMAL LAND
Senator A. J. Gronna Introduces
Bill Setting Aside $4,000
Acres

A bill granting the state of North
Dakota $4,000 acres of land to aid in
the maintenance of the new normal
school to be established at Dickinson
has been introduced in the United
States senate by Senator A. J. GrOn-
ma. The bill is now in the hands Of
the committee on public lands, and
there is good reason to expect that
it will be reported favorably.
The bill provides that the lands so
appropriated shall be sold at public
sale for not less than SO an acre,
and that the proceeds shall be made
to constitute a permanent fund, from
which only the interest shall be ex-
pended for the maintenance and sup
port of the normal school.
