Parties using homesteads as a blind for the manufacture of moon- shine whiskey are liable not only to land in jail, but to have their entries cancelled, according to the plans in- cubating where the homestead in- spectors and other officers of the law will act in cooperation. In addition to this danger hanging over the heads of nocturnal chemists is the one of being charged with murder, where the evidence shows that the liquor by which a patients death was superinduced, came from their hands.-Valdez Miner.

Attention Sportsmen
For the second time a meeting

For the second time a meeting called of all persons interested in the organization of a rod and gun club. The meeting will be held in the dining room of the Wrangell Hotel at 7:30 saturday evening, Sept. ?.
 A call for a meeting for the pur- pose of organizing a rod and gun club was made two weeka ago, but there was such a small turnout that those present thought it better to de- fer the matter of organizing until there could be more representative gathering of those interested in such an organization.
 Aside from the social pleasures and benefits to be derived there is dis tinct advantage in the town having an organization of this kind. An or ganization can accomplish things . that the individual cannot. The pri- mary object of the proposed organi- zation is te pleasure that would be derived therefrom, but in addition to the aim of mere pleasure there is an urgent need for something being done at once to check the wanton de- stuction of game in Southeastern Alaska. Organization in Wrangell and other towns will tend to crytal- ize public sentiment and make it possible to check the wholesale slaughter of game animals that is now going on throughout South eastern Alaska.
 If the game of this region is to be conserved it is imperative that there be some kind of an organization that will take some sort of hold on the situation.
 A rod and gun club could there fore in addition to furnishing much wholesome pleasure and recreation, be the means of accomplishing splen- did work in the conservation of game. It would require very little ex- pense to maintain such an organiza- ton, and the dues, if any, would be very small.
 It is earnestly hoped that there will be a splendid turnout at the meeting called for Saturday evening at 7:30 o'clock at the Wrangell hotel
