ON ALASKA'S
CAMESTATUTE

Private letters passing between the
governors Office and the Outdoor Life
office show the personal views of the
chief executive of Alaska on subject
that is of first magnitude importance
in the game preservation field, and we
gladly publish two of the most import
ant of these communications for gen.
eral information:
Hon. Thos. J. Riggs, Governor,
Juneau, Alaska
My dear GOvernor:-This letter is
written in compliance with the prom.
Use l made to write you and give you
short report on game conditions in
the White River district after return
ing from our hunting trip. l am also
sending you under separate cover a
copy of Outdoor Life containing the
bill creating game commission for
the States, drawn by me and which
am endeavoring to have passed by
several States that at present are
without such laW-this also is per
my promise
First permit me to say that the
members of our party were unanimous
in the idea that the game laws of
Alaska are being flagrantly violated
in a few respects: Dogs are being
boarded Cat least so we were informed
by Captain Hubrick and others) in
summer time on game, which of course
is against the law; game is being con-
stantly killed by other than prospec-
tors; and game is being openly served
at restaurants and hotels. While the
game law is not very clear regarding
the sale of game in Alaska, certainly
it was never the intention of the act
to allow it to be killed off cid served
up in this way. Ducks were on the
bill of fare at the restaurant where
we ate in Cordova, and sheep meat
was sold at Chitina, where we stopped,
as mutton-although we were conf
'thte'iiy Ioi" IL vas Joul "iliIC oAStp'
These things are being done right
under the eyes of the game wardens,
and to their full knowledge.
The scale of Alaska's game law
should be revised and after that there
should then be installed new and
efficfcat system for the prosecution
Of offenders. They told us on the trip
that arrests for violations of the game
laws were few and that Convictions
they seldom or never heard of-this
from our guides and packers, and
others with whom we talked on the
subject.
hope you will forgive me for being
so plain, but our trip was almost a
failure, and, as we know the game
was there a year previously, we sur
mise that too much lawless shooting
of it has driven it to other parts. We
were thirty-nine days in the field and
each day of hunting our party was
split into four or five divisions, each
hunting in different direction from
camp, and we all saw less than dozen
moose, less than two dozen caribou

NOTICE TO WATER CONSUMERS

This Company has spared neither time
nor expense to give Cordova a continuous
WATER SUPPLY. To do this the Company
must have your cooperation to stop the waste
that occurs from letting the water run to AVOID
freezing the pipes. Where we find this con-
dition still to exist we shall SHUT OFF THE
WATER for the winter without further notice.

FOREIGN

The map of Europe was being re-
made as the year 1913 came to close.
The Czecho-Slovak republic was al
ready in existence before the close of
the war, having been recognized as an
independent belligerent government by
the United States, Great Britain,
France and Italy, but the coming of
peace saw the formal establishment of
this new government at Prague. The
end of the war also practically assured
the rising of great new Poland, made
up of most, if not all, of the territory
divided up years ago among Germany,
Austria and Russia. Finland threw
off the shackles placed upon her by
Russia and out of the turmoil of civil
war emerged as a free and independent
nation. The peoples of other smaller
subject states asserted their independ.
ence.
Civil war continued to threaten the
new republic of China throughout the
year. Hsu Shih Chang was elected
president of the republic on Septem
Der 6 and during the next few months
reports indicated possibility OF an
agreement being reac hed between the
northern and southern sections of the
country.
Peru and Chile were reported on the
brink Of war during the closing weeks
Of the year. The trouble between
these countries was an outgrowth of
the nitrate war Of years ago in which
Chile won Taonu and africa.
Or. Sidonia Paes, president of Por.
tugal, was shot and killed at Lisbon.
December Is. The assassin was killed
by the crowd that witnessed the crime.
Two days later Admiral Canto Y. Gas.
tro was elected president Of Portugal.
On December Is the Finnish diet
elected General Mannerheim regent Of
Finland.

How THE WAR WAS WON

The year opened with the opinion
generally prevailing that the world
war could not be brought to a .conclu-
sion in less than eighteen months 1t
was ali open secret that the German
high command was planning to make
a supreme effort on the western front,
and during the early days of 1918 ii
was known that many divisions Of
German troops, released from the Rus.

the west front in preparation for the

More history has been made in the
year 1918 than in any year that has
passed since. time began. This. rl'o-
mentous twelve months period comes
& to a close with the world at peace af-
ter more than four years of the most
sanguinary fighting of this or any
other age.
During the year great nations have
crumbled, new nations have sprung
into being, thrones have tOttered and
fallen. mOnarchs who once ruled hun-
dreds Of millions of people with an
iron hand have fed for their lives or
have fallen victim to the wrath of peo-
I pies intoxicated by their new-won
freedom.
The coming of peace finds America
and her allies strong Ind fully able
to meet the responsibilities that come
with victory On the other hand it
finds the nations responsible for the
World cataclysm exhausted and torn
by civil disorders that are born Of de-
feat. 1t finds the once great empire of
Austria-Hungary in ruins from which
I there are already rising new free ma
tons. 1t finds the German empire dis
rupted and threatened with dissou-
ton
The end of the war finds Russia in
the throes of civil war. The world gets
only fragments of news regarding the
real situation in the land of the former
~czar, but these fragments have told a
terrible story of anarchy and class
strife in which thousands of persons
have persisted, slain in bloody riots or
ruthlessly executed by the bolskevik
leaders who control large part Of the
pnce great empire. Peace finds the.
menace Of autOcratic militarism sup
planted by the menace of bolshevism,
which is attempting to extend its an
archistic propaganda throughout the
world
But, amid all the uncertainties that
peace has brought, the world rejoices
that the last citadel of autOcracy has
been swept away before the rising tide
of democracy, giving assurance that
the millions who died upon the field of
Battle did not die in vain. Brighter
days for all mankind have dawned
with the passing of the year 1918.
