lessness and carelessness, rather
than excessive speed are the main
factors in bringing about auto cas-
ualties.

ness, are the bug bears of safe driv-
ing motorists, declare auto club ex-
perts. Curb carelessness in observ-
Rg California traffic rules, and

Cutting corners.
Usurping the right of way when
there is a question as to who has
the right.

WHITE MANS JUSTICE
 MVADES FROZEN NORTH

DAWSON, March 28. Inspector Stuart Wood and Corporal Pastey, of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, have left Dawson for Herschel Island one of the most arduous journeys that falls to the lot of the "mounties." The party will proceed to Fort Yukon, Alaska, thence to Rampant House. Here Inspector Wood and Corporal Pastey will leave most of their equip ment and proceed on to Herschel, crossing the Arctic divide, then through the timber limits to the Tun- dra, reaching their destination about the end of March. It is the longest and most dangerous of all northern trails.
 At Herschel Island one of the incl dents of the mounted police visit will be the trial of several Eskimos under the white mans law on a charge of murder. Hitherto it has been cus- tomary to bring natives under crim- inal charges out to civilization for trial of the accused Eskimo at Hers chel Island.

WELL-KN0WN ] MINING MAN
 DIES STRELNA

The news of the death of Thomas w. Lynch, of Strelna, came as shock to his many Cordova friends. He con- tracted slight cold, which later de- veloped into pneumonia and after a five days illness crossed the great di- vide last Saturday night at il o'clock.
 Mr. Lynch was born at Chicago, Hi nois, in 1862, and followed the mining game since he was IS years of age. During this time he was connected with various mines in different parts of the world, which gave him thor ough knowledge of the industry and general formation of ore bodies. He was either contractor or superintend- ent of mines at Cour d'Alene and Wal lace, Idaho, Butte, Montana, Denver, Colorado and Mexico.
 In 1893 MT. Lynch came to Alaska and was one of the first to stake claims at Dawson, during the Klon- dike rush. Later he became interest ed in good paying placer claims on Slate creek, in Interior Alaska. After disposing of his interests on Slate creek he accepted a position as super intendent for the Nugget Creek Min ing Company and several years later resigned to accept a superintendency for the Northern Development Mining Company at Strelna. During the past three years MT Lynch has supervised mining operations for the Hubbard and Elliott Development Syndicate at Elliott creek, which position he held up to the time of his death.
 MT. Lynch was a resident of Seat tie, having home at 122 West Havre Street. He leaves widow and one son, Roy E. Lynch. The remains will be accompanied to the States by Mrs. Lynch on the steamer Northwestern, which leaves Cordova about April 5. Interment will take place in the fam fly lot Seedro Woolly, Wash.
 The death of MT. Lynch will be a distinct loss to Alaska, where he has resided for so many years and was well and favorably known. He was a man of many sterling qualities, a loving and devoted husband and father, and held in the highest respect by all who knew him, whose judgment irnc uIiYyjn0 OT ] reliable nature.

VLADIVOSTOK, March 2S.-Food taxes have not been a success in this district, although the authorities are declaring that the collection of taxes has been very satisfactory. The gov ernment has no money to buy food produce in large quantities abroad, and one of the leading commissioners has declared that if things do not improve the district is in danger of famine this year.
 Soldiers of the Red Army are go- ing from house to house begging for food, although this is strictly for bidden by the army regulations.

HARMLESS GIRL USES
 FEET IN PLACE HANDS

Armless since birth, Martha Hale, freshman at the University of Cali fornia, has taught herself not only to do with her feet practically everything that the physically normal girl of 20 can do with her hands, including cooking, writing, sewing and dressing herself, but intends to teach others who are crippled to help themselves. For this purpose she is taking a spe- cial course in social service.
 This young lady toured Alaska last Summer and was Cordova visitor the latter part of May. She was with her uncle and aunt, MT. and Mrs. C.. P. Hale, the former owning a salmon cannery at Bristol Bay.
 All her life Miss Hale's attitude has been one of optimism and self-reli- ance. A slender wisp of girl, she has never learned the meaning of "can't." She is an excellent student, paints china, embroiders, and "1oves to swim and dance." Among her schoolmates she has long since been accepted as lone of the crowd"
 During the war Miss Hale visited many government hospitals, where maimed soldiers were fighting their way back to an armless life.
 "Once I could convince them" she said, "that feet could be quite as use- full as hands they began to take inter- est, to feel that the world was not really going to end for them."

He appealed to the members to vote against the bill, and end the matter. He further said the governor, in a conversation during the morning, had said the bill was not satisfactory to him as he wanted one which would leave the mattSr to his discretion.
 Bowen Opposes Extension
 Representative L. k. Bowen of Jeff ferson followed MT. Rives with the charge that the state had been favor ing the corporations by leasing con wcts to them and permitting them to make money from their labor. He said the state could use the labor of eonvicts on road construction and obtain a service for the state for their labor. He said convicts have little protection in the mines and are forced into the mines which are gaseous and dangerous, mines into which free miners will refuse to go. gc.
 MT. Bowen further charged that an effort is being made to rail- road the bill through during the short session. although the present law does not become effective until January 1 and there is time for the proper consideration of the bill. Other members later explained that the bill is being pushed because cer- tain leases will expire February 1 and the administration desires to know whether or not they should be renewed.

BILL WOULD GIVE COUNTIES Al PER. GENT TONNAGE TAX
Proposal Made to Pay Coun- ties Partion of Tonnage \ Tax on Coal and
 Iron Ore
STATE CAPITAL BUREAU l
 THE AG E- HERALD Ala Ian 10

Jefferson, Franklin, Walker and other mineral counties will be bene- fitted financially if the legislature passes bill introduced by Repre- sentative travis Williams of Frank lin Friday. It provides that the state shall apportion to the county 40 per cent of the tonnage taxes which it is now collecting on coal and iron ore.
 At present the state is collecting about half million dollars annually from producers of coal and iron and Mir. Williams bill would place about S2O0000 in the county treasury. He contends that the taxes are levied on the theory that the mineral re- sources are gradually being exhaust ed by the removal of coal and iron and that the counties from which the minerals are being taken are losing more than the state and that, therefore, they should receive at least 40 per cent of the tonnage taxes.
 McGoyvan Sworn In.
 T. T. McGowan, member of the house and representative of Sumter county, was sworn in by Speaker Merrill at the beginning of the ses- sion Friday. He was i'll when the legislature was organized January and could not como to the capital for the sessions. He was the only member who did not take the oath on the first day.

 Both houses of the legislature paid tribute during the day to the life, deeds and memories of General Rob- ert E. Lee, Confederate leader. resolution in commemoration of Gen. eral Lee was offered In the senate by Senator Randall of Bibb and was adopted under suspension of the rule. The house adopted it as soon as 1t came from the senate.
 Under the resolution both houses arose and stood in silence until the drop of the gavel of the presiding officer as q tribute to the life and work of General Lee.
 To study Educational Needs.
 Another important action of the legislature Friday was the adoption by the senate of resolution offered by Senator Duncan of Limestone, which provides for the creation of a joint recess committee which will make a thorough study of the edu- cational needs of the state and will make recommendation at the ad- journed session.
 The resolution came to the house from the senate. and was referred to the committee of rules. Under the proposal educational interests cf Alabama will confer with the recess committee and will submit budget showing what revenue is needed for the proper advancement of education during the quadrennium. The com mittee is charged with the duty of harmonizing the various budgets of institutions and with recommending to the legislature such laws as will meet the needs of the institutions.
