light, judging by his bill of $5,5453S for clerk hire and rent of the Smith build ing for the few months the board was intact M. H. Sides, a Juneau man, prepared a statement for the counsel who was too busy to obtain facts for himself, as to vessels and tonnage, which cost $15, mere bagatelle, ;.s it were, and probably the most valuable services rendered by the board, at any time. The counsel for Board also re- tained other Counsel as counsel for counsel for the Board, at an expense to the territory of $190.2O. The at- torneys also appear to have worked under the union scale for counsels as their services were remarkably cheap compared with those of the Seattle at- torneys.
 Governor Riggs, who travelled with the board appears to have suffered from dyspepsia as his bill was only $3650 for subsistence, against $3,663. 67 for his companions, showing that as an Alaskan he could not digest the rich food placed before the Seattleites.
 Before the board disbanded it spent $26,402.S0 Territorial money, and saved the Territory several hundred thousand dollars by keeping the steam ship lines worried over possible com petition. The rates were not lowered, but the good accomplished will long remain an example for other legisla- tors to folloW.-Valdez Miner.

AN EXPENSIVE LUXURY

In 1919 the Territorial IegisIature appropriated $3O0,O25 to be used by the Territory to engage "in maritime and river commerce and for other in. cldental expenses" Following the an. propriation the Shipping Board enter, ed the transportation business by pav- ing Maurice D. Leehey, of Seattle at- torney, $S150 for his services as conn., SCI, which was further augur ented by bill from M. Leehey of $5,545.3S for rent, supplies and clerk hire" and of $2,205.01 for travel and subsistence. Also a bill of $70.S4 for having a CODY or the hearing printed for dissemina- tlon among the protestants for inex- penslve transportation. MT. Semmes was Traffic Adviser" for this board, and he was also a high-priced experi- ment, as it cost $S,166.66 for his ser vices and $1,35S.66 for keeping him on the job.
 One would imagine that MT. Leehey could have travelled around the world and subsisted on goose flyers and humming birds tongues for s2,2O5O O1, but being from Seattle his tastes were rather higher than those of the aver age Alaskan, who is willing to subsist on beans while his counsel piles up the bills. MT. Semmes also appeared to be somewhat of don vivant, as $135S.66 was required to feed him and pay his travelling expenses. The du- ties of the counsel appear to have been
