All efforts to dislodge the cannery of the Carlisle Packing company, at the mouth of the Yukon, have been of no avail, and the desperate endeavor to obtain an executive or der from the President for the i'm mediate prohibiting of commercial fishing for export purposes on the Yukon and the waters adjacent to the mouth have failed, according to a telegram received from Arch deacon Stuck, who has been leading a determined fight against the can- nery.
 But word comes that Delegate Grigsby has introduced bill for the purpose of the immediate re- uoyal of the cannery, and the fu- ture prohibiting of commercial fish ing for export purposes on the fu- kon and the marine waters adjacent to the mouth of the Yukon. It Is thought that the real fight is now on, for, according to the Govern ment reports dated January ?, 1920, there has been no action taken to prevent the operation of cannery

 Advices by wire indicate that Del egate Grigsby will be greatly helped in his fight for the protection of the inhabitants of the Interior, against the inroads made on the salmon supply by the cannery, If the entire population. or the greater part at least, will sign a petition asking for the removal of the pres ent cannery, and the prohibition of commercial fishing flor export on the Yukon and the waters adjacen: to the mouth of the Yukon. It Is important that the cannery be re stricted from operating in the wa ters in the vicinity of the mouth for with no restrictions it woule be just as easy for the commerce. company to cut of our supply be fore it entered the river, as attel entering. It is one and the same thing whether the salmon Is caugh outside the mouth, or in the mouth /. for if it is the Yukon run it vii

passed by Congress itself. Yet we are convinced that when the senti- ment of the population of the In- terior is known, the fight for our protection by Delegate Grigsby will be made effective.
 For this purpose a petition will be widely circulated, and every man and woman of the Interior who be- lieves in the safeguarding of our salmon supply is asked to sign the petition.

mean the depletion of our catch along the Yukon and its tributaries, either immediately or else eventual ly, for the annual run to the spawn ing grounds is lessened, it will be only a matter of time until there will be no salmon to spawn.
 Take, for example, the case of last summer. The catch of Kings at such favorable points as the bluff at Nenana and other bluffs along the Panama river was not twenty percent of the usual catch A white fisherman near the Salcha telegraph station said he caught only 10 King salmon during the whole season, and formerly he would average around 40 each day. This means that the Kings did not reach the spawning ground last season in numbers suf- ficient to warrant anything but a failure of fishing four years hence, when the 1919 fry are supposed to return to the place where they were spawned. Yet everyone knows that the cannery company caught all the ; King salmon they wanted, and that i the catch was often so much more than they could handle that the fish and fur warden, MT. Town send, cannot be convinced that the salmon did not come up the Yukon, { for, he says. ::There were plenty of salmon at the mouth of the fu-
 kon."
 But we have a clear case against
 the cannery, not only because al! efforts to catch salmon failed, when LUe CduflSIN tllcil itirAC eiSii '' could handle. but also in the fact
 that the salmon caught above tn.

 most part, and the majority of ths larger ones caught showed ne
 marks. The blockade maintained b. the men fishing for the Carlisle Packing company was evidently yer! effective.
 The pity of it all is, from thu standpoint of Alaskans of the In terior, that while we have the Gov

U. S. ARMY AND NAVY
MEMORIAL TO OFFICERS
A HANDSOME BUT USEFUL MEMORIAL
TO BE ERECTED in new YORK.

Americas first national memorial
to the officers who died in the war is
TO be in the form of a clubhouse in
New York City where living officers
Of the past. the present and the future
may find a home when in that Gity.
The Army and Navy Club of America
of which Admiral Bradley A. Fiske is
president is back of the movement.
As a preliminary step toward the
realization of the plan, the club has
compiled a complete list of the mill
tary leaders who made the supreme
sacrifice. The official casualty report
of the American Expeditionary Force
formed the nucleus of this list. but
hundreds of names have been added.
Through correspondence with gov
ernors and adjutant generals in each
, state, clubs, lodges, business con-
\ Germs and next-of-kin. Admiral Fiske
has been able to compile what is be-
lieved to be the most authentic list
of officers dead on record.
As il is the aim of the organization
TO commemorate the officer indiyidu-
ally, the club has secured the civil
and military records of each with 9TH
er interesting data, including copies
of citations, general orders, photo
graphs and memorial books, which
will be preserved for all time in the
archives of the new clubhouse.
The main feature of the building
will be the memorial court or hall
where the names of the dead will be
engraved in bronze. While the build
ing Will stand as an enduring monu-
ment to the heroic dead. the club, be-
lieving that those who have gone
on" would prefer it. has determined
that the memorial can vest serve the
interests of the nation by its useful
ness as a home for officers and as a
rallying center for all forms of pa
triOtic activity
The building will therefore contain
in addition to the inspiring memorial
court, comfortable quarters for liv-
ing officers who come to New York.
The total inadeQuacy of the present
building at Is Gramercy Park demOn-
strated during the war the necessity
of a clubhouse for officers.
Hundreds of commissioned men an
nually pass through New York. EX
cept for hotels where prices are not
in keeping with the average officers
income, there is no place in the me-

accommodations.
Four committees are sponsoring
the movement to secure funds for the
memorial. They are headed by Cen (
eral Leonard Wood representing the (
army; Admiral William s. Sims, rep (
resenting the navy; Henry P. Dawson, I
former head of the Red Cross, the Civ
ilian Committee. and Mrs. Cornelius
Vanderbilt, wife of Brig. Gen. Wander
bilt, chairman of the womens commit
tee.
The design for the building will be
selected from competitive drawings
submitted by the leading architects of
the country. The committee on de-
sign is composed of Charles Dana Glib
son, Edwin HoWland Blashfield, Ben
jamin Morris and Henry Bacon. The
latter designed the Lincoln Memorial
at Washington.
