HAYNES NOTES

HAYNES, Des. 31.-The drive of the Haines branch of the Juneau Chapter of the American Red Cross i under the auspices of the Schools for the Christmas Roll Call, is fin ished, with one hundred and thirty five members to the good, and too much praise cannot be>given to the teachers of the public schools, they have managed the drive as well as 1t could be done, and the result shows the labor bestowed on the drive by 0oth teachers and pupils was not in vain.
 The Native auxiliary to the Haines branch, under the management of their teacher, Mrs. L. A. Gilman and Samuel Jackson, chairman of the Native Four Minute Men, have done proportionately we'll, having added fifty-three to their number in the Roll Call Drive.
 The dance given by the Native auxiliary at the A. B. Hall was a great success, and netted the Red Cross sS1.50. The music was ex. cellent, the attendance good. and a fine lunch was served; speaking of the lunch, Mrs. Fairfield, Mrs. Paddy Mrs. J. c. Paddock and Mrs Sam uel Jackson and others, deserve es- pecial mention and praise for the lunch was certain fine, up-to-date and hard to surpass.
 The children deserve great praise for the success of the Christmas Roll Call drive, and to their efforts. as we'll as the teachers, for they worked hard to make it a success. and much praise is due them.
 The Klukwan auxiliary has not been heard from yet, but they have undoubtedly done as well as those at Haines.

ALASKAN FISHING
 RULES EXTENDED
Additional Regulations Governing Set and Gill Nets Pro- mulgated by Bureau
 of Fisheries.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 28. The Bureau of Fisheries promulgated today new regulations covering fish ing in the Copper river and it's delta and in Southeast Alaska east of Cape Spencer, a further result of the hearing at Seattle on Novem Der 22.
 In the Copper river delta a closed season from January 1 to June 10, is provided. Commercial fishing in the waters of the delta is linn ited to set-nets and drift gill-nets and no nets shall exceed 800 feet in length and the lateral distance be- tween set nets shall not be less than 600 feet. Fishing is prohib ited from the head of the delta to the foot of Miles lake. In the lake all fishing is limited to set nets, not exceeding 800 feet long.
 No off shore nets are permitted in the lake. The lateral distance be- tween all nets in the lake shall be 500 feet.

years Seattle was divided into two political factions,-Gill supporters and anti-Gill men. He had warm friends, and bitter enemies, though the latter for the most part were political and not personal His per sonal honesty was never questioned in connection with his public career or the public funds. He was in flicted with an irascible temper, and prone to quarrel
 Gill resided in Alaska for brief period, going to Nome in 1900. That was just after his defeat for Councilman from the Third Ward in Seattle by Alphius Byers. He returned to Seattle in time to be elected from his old ward at the next election.

Former Delegate Talked for Six and Half Hours; Won Three-fOurthS of
 His Auditors.
VOTE IS VERY CLOSE HE HAD MANY FIGHTS
Forces Measured Strength on Burnett Motion to Re- commit; Sulzer Lost by
 Vote of 132 to 187.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 8.-While he was unseated as Delegate to Con gress from Alaska and his opponent declared the victor of the 1916 cleo tion in Alaska, former Delegate , Charles A. Sulzer easily won the honors in the remarkable contest in the House of Representatives that consumed the most part of three sessions The vote of 204 in favor of the adoption of the report seating Wickersham and 64 against it by no means represents the sentiment of the House of Representatives on the merits of the case. The vote on the motion of Representative John L.. Burnett, of Alabama, to recommit the report to the committee, with in structions to investigate further and report back to the House of Repre- sentatives February 12th, was nearer a test of strength. It showed 132 votes for recommitting and 1S7 against it with one answering pres ent and not voting There were 52 fewer votes on the second vote.
 Sulzer Made Great Fight
 Former Delegate Sulzer made a great fight on the floor of the House. He spoke altogether six and half hours. More than three-fourths of the members of Congress who heard all the debate voted for Sulzer He made it very plain that the commit teemen who heard the case and con ducted the investigation did not un- derstand it. It is conceded that Sui- ger would have won easily had it not been for long-standing custom of members to follow and support the reports of their committees.
 The report of the committee found that Wickersham had been elected by 47 plurality. The vote was not on party lines. but majority of the 132 votes that went to Sulzer were Democrats.
 Shortly after the result of the last vote was announced. Judge Wicker sham was sworn in as Delegate to Congress from Alaska.
 Washington Unedrstands sulzer
 Elected
 On the face of the returns received here from the November election in Alaska, Sulzer was elected Delegate for the term beginning March A. 1919
 Sulzer To leave For Alaska
 Former Delegate Sulzer will leave for his home in Alaska immediately. | While he is disappointed at the out. | come of the contest, he is glad to be able to give some time to his business at Sulzcr. before resuming his scat in the next Congress to which he believes he has been safely elected.
