AND
 SCHOOL TAXES
 ARE ATTACKED

The constitutionality of the tax inn posed on alien fishermen by the Ter ritorial Legislature of 1921, as well as the school poll tax law of 1919, has been attacked in a case recently in- stituted in the United States District Court at San Francisco, The case Was started by Sven Haavik against the Alaska Packers Association, the plain tiff alleging that the company with held $10 in payment of the taxes in making it's final settlement with him.
 The Alaska Packers Association, through it's San Francisco counsel, in- structed MT Faulkner to bring the matter to the attention of the Terri torial officials and ask that tn" Terri torial government defend the acton as it is the party primarily interesteo. In former attacks against the school poll tax, which were unsuccessful, the association has aided in the defense put up by the Territory.
 WILL BE TEST CASE
 The present case is the first to be filed against the alien fisherman tax. This is contained in the general tax alton law passed by the 1921 Leglsla- ture, the provision reading as follows; "h) Fishermen who are not resi- dents of the Territory five dollars ($5). The term fisherman shall mean to include all persons employed on boat engaged in fishing
 The complaint charges that the de- duction of the money to cover Doth taxes constituted the taking of prop ertv without the due process of law. Tt declares that the alien fisherman tax should be held invalid because "the said license tax gave to fishermen residents of the Territory Of Alaska a privilege, also an immunity not given to the citizens of other States of tho Tinted States of America and was. and is in violation of the or ganic Act of the Territory of Alaska in that it gave to fishermen resident of the Territory of Alaska special immunity and it also levied a special assessment on nonresident tisho'- men,"
 SCHOOL POLL TAX TESTED
 On two different occasions the va 1iditv of the school poll tax has been attacked and sustained in both the Dis +rict Courts and the Circuit Court ot Anneals. On the last occasion, attei the decision of the lower tribunal Aad been upheld by the appellate court, an application was made for a writ of oer- tiorari by the plaintiff in an effort to| carry the matter to the Supremal Court of the United States. This ap- plication, however, was denied. IL isl not believed that the school tax will be disturbed in the present action
 TERRITORY TO APPEAR
 Attorney General John Rustgard said that the Territory was giving attention to the matter. If it should become necessary, he said, counsel would appear in the California courts to defend the suit.

SUMMERING AT SOAP LAKE.

Harry lngham, OF Okanogan, the
trap drum teaser who aids in supply
ing inspiration for the dances in this
place so frequently, writes to have his
copy of the Gazette sent to Soap Lake,
where, in conjunction with Messrs
Laid and Gard, a pavilion and hall
have been rented for the purpose Of
supplying entertainment in the terpsi-
chorian line for summer visitors at
that resort. of which there are many.
The hall is to be used when too
stormy for open air dancing. He says
the hall has a hard wood floor, stage
for orchestra, and is much larger
than the hall at Oroville. Owing to the
backward season visitors are coming
in slowly. but the peak of the summer
rush is not expected until well in
June.

FIRE IN TWO ROOMS AT
 HOUSE ON HIGH

Fire in two different rooms and the smell of kerosene in one of them made a puzzle Saturday night for the fremen when they were called to the home of Anthony Ritchik at 102 High street.
 The West Main street station got the call at sos from a man who came run ming there When the firemen reached the High street house they found a rug and part of the door had been burned il the room where Ritchik had been asleep with his children. In a front bedroom, where there was a mahogany set, hole had been burned in the art square or the floor, the bedpost was scorched, and there was the smell of kerosene, accord ing to the firemen.
 Ritehik was at a loss to understand how either fire started He said that after his wife had left home to make a call he had laid down with the children and fallen. asleep. He was awakened by the choking sensation from smoke from the fire in. the room. which had a wood stove in it. He didn't know about the other fire until the firemen showed him the hole in the rug and the scorched bed post.
 From the fact that the front door of tllt house was unlocked, one explanation of fcred fcc the fires is that they might have been set by someone who sneSkeS in from outside.
