In the opinion Of the Officers Of the

it, was made even more unwelcome by
the action Of General 0 Ryan in leaving
the field with his guests before the unit
passed the second time in review, al.
though the commanding general gave or
ders for Brigadier James w. Lester
to receive the review as the regiment
passed. No other incident of the five
months stay of the New York division
on the border has SO stirred Officers and
men.
That the command for the regiment to
pass in review second time was not
given only because the regiment had not
followed the usual custom Of unfurling
its national colors is denied by division

EDNA S. WILSON
Candidate for
COUNTY TREASURER

Miss Wilson, a young lady of
honesty and integrity, has re-
sided in st. Maries for seven
years and during that time has
constantly been employed as an
accountant in various offices.
Her experience as an accountant
covers a period of nine years,
two years of which time she was
employed in Occur d'Alene. Her
record for this length Of time is
before the people of Henewah
county and shows honesty, in
tcgrity and cleanliness Of char
acter.
During the past two years Miss
Wilson has acted as deputy treas
urer and during that time has
become thoroughly familiar with
the work and records Of the of
flee. During her employment as
deputy treasurer she has per-
formed the duties Of the treasur-
er's Office for the greater part of
the time without clerical assist
ance; and is now in a position to
do the same as treasurer, if elect
ed. She assures the public OF
Benewah county that if elected
she will act as treasurer and dep
uty treasurer for at least nine
months in the year, employing
clerical assistance only during
the collection of taxes. This
fact alone should warrant Miss
Wilson's election, as it means a
saving to the county Of S75 a
month for nine months, or S675.
This young lady is in no way
affiliated with any banking in
stitutiOn in the county and is
therefore in a position to distri-
butte the deposits of the county
with equity and fairness.
The voters of Benewah county
can make no mistake when they
give this fair-minded young
lady their sincere support. She
stands before the public, honest
efficient and upright, and in a bet

fairness Of his prosecutions.
If elected as Prosecuting At

ruthless violations.
At no time has he nor will he

Mr.. Holsclaw's election means
that the people of Benewah coun-

WHAT ALASKA WILL LOSE

kali. r. 1926, introduced by
Mr.. Bryan, of Washington, and
II. K. 2oSo7 and H. K. 2I1so, in
troduced BY Mr.. Palmer, copies
OF which are. attached hereto.
These three bills were. referred TO
the COMMITTEES ,. on ways and
means, and after rather lengthy
hearings before subcommittee
that committee reported the last
one-see house report No. 1892
The bill did not pass, and AFTER
ton is called to it here to show
that i'll the bill H. r. o528, also
prepared by the department OF
commerce, the same control is
sought over fur-bearing animals
that was attempted in the three
bills on that spef.al subject in
The last congress.
Section one OF II. K. 9528 pro-
viues that it shall be unlawful
to engage in the business of TAX
ing, catching" fish = "or other
Aquatic animals" etc. This
business Of taking, catching, ETC.,
Aquatic animals is also men,
toned in the second sentence of
section one and frequently
through the bill. The elimination
is reached however, in section I8,
as follows:
Sec. Is. All Aquatic animals
included. That the catching, kill
ing, Or utilization OF any nsh of
any kind or Aquatic animal Of
any kind or speeds whatsoever
not specifically provided for in
this act shall be subject to the
provision of this act, but the sec
etary of commerce shall have
power to authorize the catching
killing or utilization of any such
fish or animal under such regula-
lions as he may prescribe"
An aquatic animal is one
which lives in or frequents the
water, and the phrase includes
the land and sea otter, marten,
mink, sealion, fur seal, harbor and
bearded seal, beaver muskrat, and
the whaleu porpoise, and walrus
OF Alaska, all of which were COW
cred in the former bills before
the ways and means committee.
Certainly the committee on
merchant marine and fisheries
has no jurisdiction over Aquatic
animals or that branch of the law
in Alaska, and that much of II.
r. o528 should go to the commit
tee on ways and means or to ter
ritories. Herewith | attach
carefully compiled statement OF
bills which have been introduced
The Nome daily nugget., 1916-04-18

Second. H. R. o528 is but one
OF many bills on this subject, the
others being pending before the
committee on territories, though
they ought all to-be heard by one
aud the same committee. -. -.
Third. The. subjects covered
in II. r, o528 are: SO intimately
interviewer with other Alaskan
legislation that it can not fairly
be considered without a consid-
Grafton of other territorial legis-
lation of which it is merely part
and which is clearly beyond the
jurisdiction of the committee on
merchant marine and fisheries
Fourth. Because the commit
tee on the territories has juris-
diction over the general territor-
ial legislation which H. K. o528
must be part, and has also here
tofore considered, reported and
secured the enactment of those
acts of congress which H. r. o528
is now offered to remodel.
For these reasons the commit
tee on merchant marine and fish
cries ought to permit II. K. o528
to be transferred to the commit
tee On the territories.
Jurisdictional Features of Fl. r.
os28
Rule XI provides that bills
shall be referred as follows {:
Subjects relating To
the merchant marine and fisher
les to the committee on the mer-
chant maine and fisheries. + =
II. To territorial legislation, the
revision thereof, and affecting
territories or the admission of
states-to the committee on the
territories"
1t is suggested that there is
conflict between the two forego-
ing clauses, that the power to
consider bills relating to fisher
les" conflicts with the jurisdic-
ton Of the committee on terri
tories over territorial legislation,
the revision thereof when the
bill covers fisheries in territory.
Passing that question by, with
out answering it, there are some
things in H. R. 9528, the Alexan-
der bill, which are not in doubt.
Let me call them to your atten-
ton first.
a. The Fur-Bearing Animal Item
In the third session of the six
ty third congress, the department
OF commerce prepared and caused
to be introduced three bills to
give a wider range of Jurisdiction
over fur bearing animals in Alas
The Nome daily nugget., 1916-04-18


in congress relating to fur-bear-
ing ANIMALS i'll Alaska--not- one
OF them has ever been referred to
the committee on merchant ma
rine and fisheries. One was re-
ferred to foreign affairs, one to
commerce, eight to ways and
means, and ten to territories
b. Territorial Leg,slatioA, the
REVISION There,of."
The committee on merchant
marine and fisheries ought not
to claim jurisdiction over bills
relating to territorial legisla-
ton or the revision thereof"
and especially where such bills
are intended to and do specifically
change existing laws which were
originally referred to, considered,
reported and passed upon the re-
ports of the committed On the
territories. The whole purpose
OF the fishing" elements in H.
K. 'o52S is to specifically and eff
fectually change existing laws OF
the most fundamental character
which were originally referred
to, considered, reported, and
passed upon the reports OF the
committee on territories. Not
only that but H. K.
o528 mutilates those existing
laws in such way as TO force
immediate action upon the COM
mittee on the territories to cure
the evil effects of the mutilation.
For instance:
C. The Law of Taxation.
OF real and personal property
is changed in way to greatly
embarrass and hinder the people
of Alaska. Sec. l of H. R. o528
provides that
Every person = engaged
in the bushes of taking, catch
ing, fishing for, canning :" = * or
otherwise dealing at wholesale in
food fish or she'll fish, or other
Aquatic animals or the products
thereof, in the territory of
Alaska = shall = x apply for
a license to the secretary of COM
merce who shall issue the same,
and every such person shall, in
lieu of all other federal or terri
torial license fees and taxes there
for and thereon, pay annual Ii
cense fees and taxes on said bust
ness and output as in this act
provided"
Section two fixes the amount
of the license fee and taxes" as
follows;
Sec. 2. License fees and taxes.
That license fee of S. shall be
imposed and paid for each can
ming, mild curing, saltery, smok
ing, fish freezing, whaling, or

is the direful prophecy of Topeka gro
GERS and food sellers. UNLESS some
unknown turkey center floods the
market there is no escape from paying
40 cents" asserts one prominent 10
peka grocer. Turkey raisers around
Topeka are sending their birds to Kan
sas City, receiving price that guar
antees such a figure"
The Topeka Packing company tins
week sent its entire supply to the
Kansas City markets, receiving 29
cents a pound for them with heads and
feet still on the fowls. When they are
drawn and dressed and feet and heads
removed the cost will figure about
"a or 35 cents pound to the Kansas
City buyers. Add a cent a pound for
the freight which the Kansas City men
have 10 pay and then add wholesalers
and retailers profits and you have the
40-cent turkey, declare Topeka gro
GERS.
The price of the Christmas goose
will be tame this season, is the COM
forting prophecy of the meat men.
There is a large supply of geese avail
able locally and the eventual price
will probably be about % cents a
pound for the Christmas market.

Safe or Sorry?

The railroads and factories in their
efforts to guard against accidents have
made use of an expression that should
be used this spring by every southern
farmer and planter No man can guess
at the probable price OF cotton next
November, whether it will be worth
fifteen cents, or five cents If the war
does not close by that time and if the
South has only the cotton acreage it
had in 1915, we will have more than we
can use and we may expect six or seven
cent cotton. If the war does close be
fore that time all Europe will be so
poor they can use but little cotton, and
hence We may expect low price. Why
not be safe The world will need our
meat and our corn and each farmer
who grows enough feed and food stuff
for his family and enough to spare for
cash for clothing and miscellaneous e'<-
penses will be safe The man who
banks all on cotnon and who will not
grow his feed and food stuff may be
sorry Which will you do, play safe
or risk being sorry next November and
holding your hat in your hand and beg
ging some one to advance money on
your cotton No man should grow a
bale of cotton that he can hold as his
own all next winter If necessary
