Regarding the
 Proposed Game
 Law for Alaska

The proposed game laws introduced in Congress by Alaska's delegate, Dan A. Sutherland will be the best yet devised for the Territory. but will need much amending if they are to be satisfactory to all parts of the Territory.
 It is evident that Dr. E.W Nelson, biologist, author of the bill, is look ing at game protection through the eyes of a man raised in a populated district were game is hunted for sport and not for subsistence.
 The best feature of the proposed bill is that proposing the appoint ment of a game commission with headquarters at Juneau. The salary is inadequate, but this can be reme- died later. The section also gives the commission powers to appoint game wardens and other necessary officials, giving the Territory au- tonomy over its game resources
 A further section should have been added to the proposed act allowing bona fide residents of the Territory, who have resided here a certain length of time and collected valuable trophies and heads, to take same out with them duty free in case of re- moval to the States: such trophies being properly classed as household fixtures such as curtains or pictures As the law now is a resident is com pellled to pay large fee or sacrifice trophies he has been years in col lecting Numbers of fine heads and horns are left to rot on this account by men who kill the animals for food
 The proposed law states that only citizens with a six months residence in the Territory may act as guides; but adds that Indians and Eskimos acting as such guides must be able to read and write. This might we'll apply to where Native has had op- portunity for educational advantages but to require Native of the section lying north and inland of 6S degrees of latitude to read and write would be ridiculous, as many of them have never seen a white man.
 The section providing that no alien may have firearms in his possession, without a special license therefor, is is good one. Aliens are the greatest law breakers in the Trritory, many cannery crews slaughtering game an- imals and birds and salting them or packing them for transportation to the States at the end of the seasons work.
 The brown bear should not be pro- tected. Its penchant for mischief and its proneness to attack the unarmed prospector is too we'll known to Alas kans to permit of argument. It is a vicious beast and should be shot down without mercy. The black bear which is harmless, should be protect ed with an indefinite closed season. These animals are absolutely harm less unless crowded. Beavers and marten should be protected another four years.
 The new laws are far better than any yet proposed and it is hoped they pass Congress.
 They can be amended from time to time, and the Alaskans on the Com mission will know how best to do this.-Seward Gateway.

"GLASSCOCK."
 The Monday edition of the Ketchi- kan Chronicle contained the follow ing the report of the disaster:
 When the steamship Admiral Rodman arrived here today, Capt Sam Glass reported that the steam ship Queen, which went on the rocks Saturday morning, was taken off Saturday night and after a survey at Prince Rupert went ahead south with all her passengers. While the Queen was saved and suffered little actual damage it came very nearly being lost as at one time, during low tide on Saturday the vessel was grees, with the stern under water to such an extent that there was water in the rear rooms while the bow was high and dry on the rocks.
 Some of the plates in the bow were crushed in to such an extent that the boat was leaking somewhat but not enough to interfere with her progress. At Prince Rupert, before proceeding. the hole was filled with concrete and this prevented as full a flow of water into the ship as might otherwise have taken place.
 After the accident it became nee. essary to throw all the fresh fish overheard and part of the cased goods which was being shipped south Natives in the vicinity were said to have reaped a harvest with their small boats, picking up the cargo which was thrown into the water.
 At one time after the vessel went on the rocks, about four hours after the passengers were taken off, the vessel listed badly. but when high tide returned the ship righted itself making it possible to haul it off into deep water. How much loss was caused blythe accident is not definite. ly known"
