Wick Hedges on Game Bill

Reports from several places in Alaska. and particularly from Yukon river points, show that James Wick. ersham Is making strenuous attempt to clear his skirts of having fought the big-game bill which was intro duced in congress last winter by Delegate Charles A. Sulzer The facts in the case, however, says the Juneau Empire. are so condemning that the friends of Mir. Sulzer believe that MT. WickersnAn will never be able to acquit himself.
 Conceived in Fairbanks, fostered by the Fairbanks Commercial Club and the Fairbanks branch of the Council of National Defense. the big-game bill was introduced In congress by Mir. Sulzer. The views set forth by the Fairbanks commercial organization and Council of Defense were also backed up by the Panama Valley Az ricultural Association and others. There appeared no doubt. and there was no doubt, that the people of In terior Alaska were solidly behind the delegate in the measure
 Wckersham's Opposition
 Following the introduction of the bill, 1t was referred to the committee in r. ings were held. Mir. Wickersham did not personally appear before that committed He knew, the friends of Mir. Sulzer say. that the bill was right, that it was a measure started directly by the people themselves, and he did not dare oppose 1t. But he was in the office of the chairman of the com mittee. the room adjoining the com mittec room. and several times he were apparently in opposition.
 At one stage of the hearing he sent for one of the congressman and i'm after his conference with MT. Wickersham that member started ar antagonistic examination of some of the people who appeared in favor Of the bill
 And pr. Hornaday. who appeared and made the strongest fight against the measure. stated emphatically that MT Wickersham told him that there were not more than 5000 caribou in Alaska, which statement Is known to be false by everyone who has ever lived in Interior Alaska.
 And pr" Elliott, known in Wash. ington to be protege of MT. Wicker sham. also appeared to make some against the bill. but it was so evident that he did not know any thing about the matter under consid. eration that the committee wasted little time with him.

the American people are at last becoming truly

in FORM and not enough in fact. In our broad
domain are assembled representatives OF all races

We have not had homogeneous nationality,
In the pre-Civil War days sectional antagonisms
threatened the life of the Republic. The conflict
between the States wrought the American COM
monwealths into a complete political union, and
subsequently there went on unifylng OF national
sentiment. But this was not perfected, for from
all quarters of the earth there drew hither alien
hosts who did not rightly understand our institu-
tions or had warm sympathy with American
thought and feeling. In very recent years racial
distinctions had fourished in this country to the
point of importing its unity and strength.
At our entrance into the struggle with Germany,
the lack of unison in the sentiment and attitude of
the American public was for while painfully evil

Hawaii this week to investigate vari
Gus public utility corporations, such
as telephone and railway companies, in
order to familiarize themselves with
their workings and to obtain at first
hand the rates charged and the condi-

Prices of materials have been greatly
increased since the opening of the war,
which may be a reason for some Of the
companies desiring to raise their rates.
This will also be inquired into. Those
making the trip will be Chairman w.

The Soldiers Reading

HIEEPING our fighters ft" by E. F. Allen
IN which is one of the new books at the
Library of Hawaii, devotes chapter to What
our soldiers read and why" In this chapter Mr.
Allen saws that while there are as many varieties
Of taste as in like number Of civilians, it is true
that the American soldier of today reads higher
class Of books than the average American citizen.
When the American Library Association started
in September, 1917 to buy books and build camp
libraries it asked for million dollars for this pur
pose Over a million and half was subscribed.
Burton Z. Stevenson who is the librarian at
Camp Sherman, says in regard to the purpose and
spirit of the work:
i"Camp-library service has been established with
Just purpose, that is, to help win the war.
There three ways in which it can help: first,
by helping to maintain the morale of the men pro-
viding them with. interesting and entertaining
reading matter to help tide over the moments Of
loneliness and depression that come to everyone
second, by helping to educate them concerning
the causes and purposes Of the war, and to make
them realize that they not fighting France S
fight England's fight, or Italy's fight, but Amer
ica's fight; that it is not Belgium England or
France that Germany is seeking to destroy, but
the ideals and principles that form the foundation
stones of this American Republic; and third, by
providing the men with special technical books
along their several lines, thus making them better
and more efficient soldiers"
There are now some thirty-three library build
ings which have been erected with the $4,000
given by the Carnegie Corporation for the purpose
These comfortable, roomy places where the
men can smoke and read and feel at home.
Il Among the books in one days circulation at
Camp Meade the following subjects were repre-
scented: French history, mechanics, topography
and strategy in war, sefpropelled vehicles hand
grenades, feld-intrenchments bridges, chemistry
physics, astronomy, geology, hydraulics, electric
ity, medieval history, civil engineering geography
American history, surveying, materials Of con
struction, general history, masonry and concrete
. The Library of Hawaii has been and still is col
lecting books for the soldiers. Over a Thousand
books have been donated, mended, shellaced anc
distributed to various company and post libraries
There still must be many more books that can bt
