Excerpts From Report
 of Gov. Scott c. Bone
 on Alaska Game Law

Speaking of wolves, eagles, bears, caribou and moose. deer, mountain sheep mountain goats, etc., Governor Scott C. Bone. in his annual report on the Alaska game law, says:
 The Legislature of Alaska has enact, ed two laws providing. bounties--one Of Sl5 for each wolf and the other Of 50 cents for each eagle killed. During Ghe fiscal year ended June 90, 1921, bounties were paid on 233 wolves, s3, ,495, and on 2,288 eagles, $1, l44.s
 Wolves and WolVerenes are ruthless 1estroyers Of game aud fur animals Wolves follow the caribou in the in 1erior and attack the calves and wound ed animals. Predatory and destructive by instinct, they are a menace to game life. The Territory has shown liberal lty in providing bounty on wolves and this should be supplemented by the Federal Government in aid of the necessary extermination. The Terri tCrial bounty on eagles is serving a good purpose.
 Protection of the brown. bear in Alaska-a protection, manif9stly, that does not protect-0ontinues to be de- rided and tends, naturally, to bring the game laws into disrepute. Tn pop ular appraisement the brown bear is predatory beast and, of the animal kingdom, an arch foe of mankind. The year just ended has produced DO addi- tionai evidence of his ferocity in the maining or killing of human beings, because there have been fewer pros oeqtors in the hills and mouLtains; but his bad reputation is so we'll estab- lisheds that he is held in mortal dread. To'see him is to take flight or to give battle. Attacked, he fights; unat saoked. he is often the aggressor.
 Since the protection of the brown bear is one that does not protect and since his status Of persona non grata is now clearly unohangeable, the mean ingless legal form of protection extend edlnay well be withdrawn, especially as there is no imminent danger of the extermination of his species.
 The bears of other haes. the black,
The Kusko times., 1922-11-01

grizzly, and polar, are in better favor. As between the brown and the black bears, if protection is to De accorded, the black bear is universally believed to be entitled to the greater eonsidera- tion. That the brown and black bears are still. plentiful is the consensus of opinion of game wardenS and mining men,
 Reports from game wardens in the northern part of the Territory and the interior agree that the caribou is not decreasing in numbers, if indeed, it is not multiplying rapidly. The runs this current year began apparently earlier than usual and moving mass of many thousands was in evidence. Fragment ary reports indicate that there were mora calves than usual. Owing to the early runs, the natives and others did not secure, il is said, a requisite winter supply of meat.
 It appears likewlse true that moose on the KeDal peninsula are increasing in numbers. whereas in other districts there is a seeming diminution. The number killed during the year appears to have been about normal.
 Deer, as already indicated. seem less plentiful, although it is claimed by some keen obtervers that there is steady increase in Southeastern Alaska. On the islands of the Alexander arch pelago wolves and bears are still re ported to be doing great damage to the deer herd.
 Mountain sheep are reported iu the usual, if not unusual, numbers in most of the mountain districts on the Kenai peninsula,
 Mountain goats show DO signs of de- crease. They are not often pursued by hunters. That many kids are killed by eagles is 10 be believed

ILLUSTRATED LECTURE
AND MUSICAL PROGRAM
GIVEN AT Y LAST NIGHT

There was fair sized gathering
in attendance last night at the il
lustrated lecture and musical pro-
gram offered by the Y. M. c. A.
in the banquet hall. However, the
gathering was not nearly as great
as the class of the entertainment
really merited
The principal feature Of the en-
tertainment was an illustrated lee
ture offered by Quincy Randals, OF
the United States forest service.
lie was assisted by G. II. Cook, also
Of the forest service. Mr.. Randals
chose as his subject THE Timber
Of the Southwest-Is 1t a Mine OF
a Crop?"
He said that the timber of the
southwest should be considered as
q perennial crop, not as a mine
which can be exhausted in time.
He said the people should learn to
consider it entirely as an agricul-
tural product, which should be
treated as such.
An unexpected and highly pleas
ing musical offering came with a
violin solo given by Henry Causes.
formerly OF the Minneapolis sym
phony orchestra. He offered both
popular and classical selections and
in his rendition proved himself a
| master violinist--one of the best
who has appeared in Albuquerque,
His offering last night was SO high
ly satisfactory that he is certain to
have large attendance on his next
appearance.
Miss Carol Wilson offered sew
eral vocal solos Il. II. Bierman
rendered a number of violin selec-
tions. Both were we'll received.

SUPERVISORS REPORT
SHOWS rs FIRES PAST
YEAR IN THE MANZANO

Supervisor Kenner Kartchmer
yesterday submitted the annual
fire report for the Manzano nation
al forest to the district forester.
The report shows a total of only
26 fires had occurred in the Man
zano forest during the past sea-
son. All of these fires were sup
pressed by forest rangers and 9TH
er forest service employees.
The first fire occurred on Aprii
l9 and the last October 25. A to-
tai of 634 acres of national forest
land was burned over, together
with 80 acres Of private land
within the forest boundary. There
was 100000 board feet of national
forest timber burned, while the es-
Innate Of timber burned on private
owned land within the forest
boundary was $4,000 board feet.
OF the 26 fires in the Manzano
national forest only five were
due to natural causes, these five
being caused by lightning. The
other 2l We're caused by human
agency. These figures clearly en-
phasize the need for education of
the forest using public against
carelessness.
In seven Of the man caused fires
the. parties responsible were ap-
pretended by forest rangers. All
were prosecuted vigorously before
justice courts, under the state laws
covering fires. Convictions were
obtained in every case and in sew
eral of the cases which appeared
flagrant heavy fines were i'm
posed.

ARTIST ESTABLISHES
STUDIO IN BASEMENT
BELOW POLICE COURT

Down at the city hall there Is a
young chap who is Just hanging
around" He is helping out in gen
eral work about the city hall and
at a glance one takes him for a
janitor AS a matter of fact he
was recently in the custody of the
police.
But he is a rapid fire artist
not an artist with firearms, but
an artist in paints and oils, and
he is a speedster when it comes to
transferring impressions to canvas.
And down in the basement of the
city hall, directly beneath the po-
lice court where Judge George
Roddy daily holds forth, he has
established a studio"
Edward Mercer is his name; he
is English by birth, according to
the police, and he is a young man
Of about "a. Mercer was taken
into custody some time ago by the
police in connection with a check
case. Later he was released.
Instead OF Immediately leaving
upon his release he elected to re-
main. He assisted about the city
hall for few days and now has
fallen into the habit to such an
extent that he does most of the
work about the building, devoting
all his spare time to his paintings.
Mercer gave a demonstration OF
his work yesterday. His canvas
had been prepared to receive the
painting. Although the light was
not the best in his basement STU
do" he turned out a painting of a
forest fire scene almost as rapidly
as Bud Fisher can turn out his
crayons Of Mutt and Jeff.
Mercer claims to have won an
award in an exhibit at Denver,
Colorado. This has not been au-
thenticated but he has turned out
quite number OF clever paintings
in his Studio" He paints land
scapes, forest scenes, streams and
animal life in unusually clever
fashion.
The Young man has offered to
paint a group picture of the police
force. The police have not quite
decided whether to accept it as a
Christmas gift or to consider the
offer as "lese majestic"

8 MILLIONS FOR

WILL De ASKED
Congress viii Be Requested
to Appropriate This
Amount for Relief Work
in Stricken City

White Sulphur Springs, W. Va
Dec, 16.-The fourteenth annua
conference Of governors ended to
day with a spirited discussion oI
the Ku KluX Khan.
Many of the executives then pre-
pared to leave for Washington to
accent President Harding's invita-
ton to discuss prohibition enforce
ment with him at luncheon Mon
day.
An executive committee consist
ing Of Governors Cox, Massachu-
setts, Hardee Of Florida and Nc
Cray of indiana was elected. GOV
ernor Townsend, Delaware, was
reelected treasurer. and Miles {,
Riley of Madison, Wis, sec. Gov
ernor McCrary invited the COVER
nors to confer next year in lndi-
ana.
Selection of the next meeting
place was left to the executive
committee.
The khan developed after an ad-
dress in which Governor Allen of
Kansas declared the organization
was due to die and expressed the
belief that the efforts of the at
torney general of Kansas to oust
il from that state on the ground
that it was operating without a
charter, would be successful.
Governor Morrison of North
Carolina said that although the or
ganization aroused religious feel
ing, he did not believe it was re
sponsible for violence in his state
He asked Governor Allen whethel
the khan ever had endorsed mani
festations Of lawlessness or had
done anything to stop them.
Governor Allen replied that
every member of the organization
believed he was doing a noble
work. When lawlessness develop
ed. he said, the khan would dis
avow and then give $50 to a loose
mouth in the preacher who would
thank God for the khan. He said
he was ashamed that the Boy
Scouts in st. Louis had not re-
iected a gift of $4,000 from the
khan so that "they could claim
100 per cent Americanism.
Governor Olcott of Oregon ask
ed IL Kansas had sent troops to
suppress the khan during the rail-
road strike. Mr.. Allen replied that
he was ready to do so. but that
such action did not become neces-
sary.
Governor Olcott then asked
what means Governor Allen
thought would prove most effec-
tive in curbing the society, and the
Kansas executive said he favored
filing the names of members with
state officials and refusing to
grant charters to the organization.
Governor McCray at this point
said he had found that charter
had been issued to the khan In In
diana a month before he knew it.
but that the ansmen had been
quiet in his state.
The governors were asked by
Governor Clcott to sign a petition
urging the adoption by congress of
the McNary resolution to appro-
PIRATE $300,000,000 for relief work

yening of the Legislature.
Mr.. Hodge stated yesterday that
the committee will be glad to re-
ceive suggestions from persons in
terested in the stock business who
have ideas as to beneficial legis-
lation. These should be sent TO
Chairman O'Donel or to the office
of the association here.
At its 1922 session in Las Vegas
last winter the association went on
record for a reduction in state ex-
penses for the relief of the live
stock interests. A program of leg.
islation for tightening the burden
of taxation on the stockmen also
was recommended. 1t is presumed
that the legislative committee will
work to have this program adopted,
in addition to other matters that
may be suggested.

with three companions, started a
search of the desert region approx
imately S5 miles west of here early

Last year Sussex county was paid
more than $2,5OO,OOO for its sweet po-
tato crop, and as a result the acreage
was greatly increased this year just
in time to strike the low prices now
prevailing. However, altho many
farmers will be unable to sell their
sweet potatoes this year, it has con-
vinced any thinking person that the
sweet potato crop will hereafter be a
very considerable one from Sussex
county. The finest potatoes are grown
in that section, and when the prices
are once at fair level, the sweet po-
tato crop is going to mean something
to the Sussex county farmer in the
future.
