The Cordova daily times., 1923-02-23

The Right Reverend Peter Trilnbl' Rowe, head of the Alaska Missions of the Episcopal Church, arrived in Cordova on the Admiral Watson early this morning on his annual visit to the missions of the Territory, which this year will take him as far a. Eagle.
 From Valdez the journey will be made by dog team to Gulkana, a distance of 200 miles. Then Bishop Rowe, who is a famous musher, will mush distance of 225 miles to Ia mana Crossing, where there is 9 thriving Indian mission. This was at first a government signal station, and, when they gave it up, an Indian mission was started there as the most central point for a number of Indian villages within a radius of fifty miles that are included in the mission.
 On his trips to the various Indian missions in this part of the country. Bishop Rowe will try out the now motor scow, the Pelican, which was built last summer almost entirely by the Indians. This boat takes the place of the old Pelican, made fam ous by Archdeacon Stuks'c book, Summer Voyages on the Yukon and Its Tributaries"
 There are a number of Indian will lages between Tanana Crossing and Eagle which the Bishop would like to visit and if he does so he will not be able to get back until some time during the summer If he does not cover all of this territory, he will return next April.

fur-bearing animal (which includes foxes)-in Alaska Therefore, in an- swer to the warden's query, it is my opinion that Harold Bailey is not guilty of any violation of the Act ex- cept and unless he KILLS the live fur fox which he has captured alive"
 Further along. after reviewing the law of estrays, he says: "In my opin- ion, the government through it's agents and officers, cannot dispossess Harold Bailey of the live blue fox now in his possession" Again he says that "the owners right to a fox regarding it's natural liberty with no intention of returning to it's owner, and which is not promptly possessed. or cannot be Identified ceases, and becomes the property of the person thereafter re- claiming it; and in the absence of any person retaining such animal it becomes wild land fur-bearing ami mal."
 Commissioner DeArmond believes that all this shows the necessity of having a game warden stationed at Sitka as protection for the legal trappers and a menace to poachers. The warden would know where traps were set out, what kind of traps were used and, MT DeArmond says, could get the active cooperation of other officers and government boats
 Others see complications that have arisen over the regulations, the ne- cessity of marking foxes. The need of constructive legislation on this sub- ject is also very apparent.-Sitka Fri bune.

BISHOP OF ALASKA 27 YEARS

Bishop Rowe was consecrated Bishop of Alaska for the Episcopal church on November 30, 1895 and for the twenty-seven years and more since then he has devoted his life to the great work of educating and caring for the natives of Alaska and furthering the cause of humanity among both the white and Indian aces here iE every way possible. His long service has made him known and loved in every town and every little out-of-the-way village through out the territory.
 Two years ago the Bishop Rowe foundation was started by some of Bishop Rowe's devoted and grateful followers as memorial for his twenty-five years service in Alaska, Over $75,0O0 of the $100,000 has been contributed and plans are now under way to raise the remainder in the near future.
 The Foundation is to be a perpet,, ual trust held by the Domestic and Foreign Missionary society. of the Episcopal church. During Bishop Rowe's lifetime the income is 10 be paid to him to help him meet var ious emergencies that are constantly arising in his missionary work ill Alaska. If the time should come when he is no longer Bishop for the ter ritory, the trust is to be administered bv the society and will be used for the continuance of the mission work in Alaska.

kETcHIkAN BOWLERs WIN

The last three of the series of the bowling games played by the contest ants, Juneau and Ketchikan Elks' teams, the latter, by their splendid record gave rise to an impression that they had been stalling in the previous games. While Juneau made an ex- cellent score in the finals, 2698, Ket- chikan went 119 better by rolling 2S17, winning the tournament by 245 pins. The IS games were played in six eve nings, Tuesdays and Fridays for three weeks. Only once in the period of play was the Juneau team in the lead. In the finals one Ketchikan player rolled 662 and another 641 in the three games.

COMPLICATIONS IN
 FUR REGULATIONS
Recent Orders of Biological Survey Cause Sitkaites to Wonder
 When Is Fox

Instead of closing the doors against poachers, as was intended by the reg ulations from the U. s. Biological Sur vey allowing no one to trap blue foxes agents, it has been thrown much wider open and premium on poaching, ac- cording to an opinion of H. D. Stab Ter, U. S. assistant district attorney, who holds that live fox may be trapped and become the property of the trapper, unless ownership can be proved. The case hinges upon the fact that Harold Bailey and Phillips caught live fox in their traps and reported it to Commissioner DeArmond, and the latter in turn communicated with E. P. Walker of the Biological Survey, who secured an opinion from the district attorneys office.
 Bailey on returning to his traps, after correspondence had been opened up, found in the traps another blue fox which was dead. According to the legal opinion he is guilty of a crime in trapping a fox that is dead but is not guilty of trapping the live fox. Again, if the fox had not died in his traps he would not be guilty. And that's that!
 Stabler in his opinion, which covers four typewriter pages and reviews acts relating to estrays, says:
 Section of said act of April 21, 1910, does not make it unlawful to take foxes alive. The act provides that no person shall KILL-any other

MERCHANTS ASSOCIATION ANCHORAGE HAS LIVE WIRE

The Anchorage Merchants Assoc iation is now functioning with an initial membership of eleven. The organization was launched November 20, 1922, for the purpose of meeting the needs of purely business insti- tutions. The membership is strictly confined to merchants and business men, each house being considered a member, i. e., the membership is not personal, and every member is a representative of some business house.
 The objects of the association, as given out by it's officers are CD to of credit information CD to cooper ate in advertising the community and themselves, (3) to get con- certed action upon problems such as transportation, in which they are all interested.
 It is not the purpose of the as- SOClat1On, say US members, to uSurp the functions of the Chamber of Commerce, but the members of the association and the association itself stand ready to cooperate with and assist the Chamber in it's work.
 The matter of a fur exchange, an adjunct of the Merchants Associa- tion, is one which has been incuba- ting for some weeks. A committee has been engaged in studying trans portation and several other con- mittees have been engrossed with matters of general welfare for the Under the latter head members will be supplied with ''fillers" adver tising Alaska, to be sent to houses outside with their regular mail

ADMIRAL LINE
 STEAMERS BE
 RECHRlSTENED
Spokane and Senator Will Bear Names of
 Admirals
PREPARING OF RICH
 CASE STARTED TODAY

Two more vessels of the Pacific Steamship Company soon will bear the names of Admirals of the Ameri- can Navy, it has been announced by company. They are the former Nome liner Senator, aboard which many thousands of travellers have voyaged from Seattle to Boring Sea, and the steamship Spokane, the Pacific Steamship Company's excursion cruise ship, known in virtually every state in the Union.
 The famous liner Senator is to be rechristened the Admiral Fiske, in honor of Rear Admiral Bradley Allen Fiske, and the Spokane will be re- named the Admiral Rogers in honor of Rear Admiral Eustave Barron Rogers, retired, former paymaster- general of the United State Navy.
 The Senator now is operated be- tween Portland and San Francisco and the Spokane plies between Se- attle and ports in Southeastern Alas ka. The Senator is undergoing ex- tensive alterations and a general overhaul She will bear the name of Admiral Fiske when she returns to service. The Spokane is plying be- tween Seattle, Skagway and way ports. She will be rechristened the Admiral Rogers within the next 50 days, MT Alexander said.
 Admiral Fiske, for whom the Sen ator will be named, was navigator of the Petrel at the battle of Manila, and was mentioned in dispatches by the commander of the vessel for his "eminent conspicuous conduct in bat tle," and by Admiral Dewey for "heroic conduct" at the battle of Manila.
 Admiral Rogers. whose name will be borne by the Spokane, served on the U. s. s. Monterey during the Spanish-American War, and was pres ent at the capture of Manila His home is in Tacoma.

for planting in parks and parkings
and these will be planted and grown
under competent supervision. An
! automobile park, adjacent to the
automobile street, bordering on the
reservoir, has been provided for.
Everything, apparently, has been
done to make the new American
Falls model city.
| Residents of American Falls, who
have sold or contracted their lots to
the government will be given ten
days to make selections in the new
townsite to which their buildings
will be moved as soon as the new
site is ready. A sale at which all
lots so selected will be offered is be-
ing arranged by the bureau of recla-
nation and will be held within the
coming few weeks.
The City of American Falls has
been made exclusive sales agent for
lots in the new townsite and will re-
ceive commission on all lots sold
for fourteen months from Septem-
Der IA. The commissions will be
paid into the city treasury by the
government. This will be the gov
ernment's contribution toward the
support of the city to compensate for
the disappearance from the tax roll
of property purchased for the reser-
voir site and right of way.
The grading of streets in the new
townsite began September a. Sep
TENDER 3 contract was signed with
the Oregon Short Line for the re-
mOval of its tracks from the reser-
voir site to new grade just below
the dam site, and work on the new
grade will begin at an early date.
Contracts for the construction of
waterworks and sewers will be let
within few days.
The greater part of the American
Falls must be moved as it is included
in the site Of an artificial lake which !
will cover $4,000 acres. The reser-
voir will have a maximum capacity
Of three million acre-feet, and will
supply water, eventually, to about /
100000 acres Of land. The building
of the dam for the reservoir will be-
gin next spring.
The removal of buildings from the
present site to the new site will be
done by or under the supervision of
the Reclamation Service. There are
approximately $50 buildings to be
removed.-Issued by the American
Falls Press for circulation by the

MODEL WILL SOON BE
REALITY AT AMERICAN FALLS

gOvernment-planned and built
model townsite at American Falls
will soon be a reality. 1t will have
broad, tree-lined streets and avenues,
municipally-Owned water works sup
piled by spring capable of serving
the capital city of the state, sewers,
sidewalks, and graded and graveled
streets, the cost of these improve
ments absorbed in the price of lots,
with not dollar of bonded debt
against them.
The location is slightly, overlook
ing what will be the largest artificial
reservoir in the United States, with
mountains a few miles in the back
ground.
Most towns, like Topsy, just
growed. 1t will not be so with the
new American Falls. Every detail
has been planned by a town-planner
who was unhampered Prevailing
winds, greatest possible amount of
sunshine, irrigation, drainage, and
everything suggested by experience
has apparently been taken into con-
sideration.
There are winding streets con-
forming to topography; a nine-acre
park AUDITING against the business
district, with reservations for public
buildings adjacent to it; we'll
located churches; building restric-
lions are written into contracts and
deeds so that thoughtlessness, ignor-
ance or selfishness can not mar the
plans.
Warehouses, elevators, mills, lum-
Der and coal yards and all kinds of
business requiring trackage are re-
stricted to an industrial area; black
smith and machine shops and similar
business to one side of a certain
street; garages and filling stations to
one side of street two blocks long;
business of no kind can be estab-
lished in residential districts.
Building restrictions are imposed. |
Residences must be located given
distances from sidewalks so as to
have uniformity; not more than one
residence can be put on lot, build
ings must be so placed as not to in
terfere with adjacent property own
ers in any way. Residence lots
range in width from fifty to ninety
feet.

grade and will be reimbursed in case

Moves Own improvements
In consideration of this the rail-
road agrees to do at it's own cost, all
, the moving of buildings, tracks,
stock yards and houses. Side tracks
are to be constructed in the new
townsite within ninety days after the
United States notifies the railroad
that the grades are ready and all i'm
provements must be moved within
eighteen months after the grade Is
completed by the government.
The construct further stipulates
that the railroad believes that 1t is
entitled to damage for the full cost
of moving it's tracks and improve
ments, but being DESTROYS of assist
ing in the building of the dam and
reservoir enters into the contract as
outlined above, which provides for

Idaho street is the main business
street of the new model town of
American Falls. Practically all the
details involved in the moving Of the
old town and the building OF the new
were completed when the city coun-
Gill;, the citizens committee, the res
ervoir district board and reclamation
officials met in joint session to put
the final ok on plans
The resourceful, determined and
aggressive policy of Commissioner D.
w. Davis is regarded as responsible
for the quick settlement of the num-
erous problems involved in the NOV
ing. Upon his arrival in the city he
went into executive session with the
various boards concerned and in a
short time agreement on
the more important points had been
reached City officials and members
of the citizens committee who have
devoted thought to the plans for
months expressed themselves as be-
ing extremely pleased with the out
come of the conferences and were
grateful that there are to be no more
delays in policy or actual construc-
ton work.

nation officials announced that
Charley Farmer would begin grading
the main street of the new town the
next morn ing.
The matter of the purchase and
removal OF part of the original
| townsite that will be below the dam
came up before the commissioner
and his party late in the afternoon.
Mr.. Davis advised following the read
ing Of resolution by John McKown,
that the matter deserved the serious
consideration of the department. He
stated that it was true that the gov
eminent was not legally bound to
take relief to people who were pos
sibly damaged, but that moral OBJ
legation existed of which he was fully
aware. The legal aspect, he said,
would have to be considered and he
was sure, that the secretary of the
interior, Dr., Work, would be in
clined to be as lenient as possible
with the citizens in the original
townsite, who felt that their holdings
were damaged.
The commissioner, together with
his chief counsel Hamele, Chief En-
gineer Weymouth and John Nc
Kown planned to personally inspect
the proposition. The matter will
probably be definitely settled when
Commissioner Davis returns to
American Falls the latter part of
October.
Fourteenth Anniversary
1t was September 18, 1909 that
blaring headlines first announced to
the world that the great American
Falls dam was to be built. Here Is
what they said:
Mammoth Dam Will Be Built
Kuhn-Buhl Syndicate to Build Great
Storage Reservoir"
On December 25 the same year it
was, announced that agents of the
syndicate have already started TAX
ing options on property that will be
flooded in the reservoir site."
February rs, 1910, an announce
ment read, u. E. Lane has an
nounced that work on the dam across
Snake river at American Falls will
begin within the next twelve
months'' etc.
Last Tuesday, the eighteenth of
September, 1928, was the fourteenth
anniversary of the American Falls
dam.

Davis Gives Assurance

1 know of no possible reason why
work should not begin at once and
continue without interruption, said
Commissioner Davis. "And I was
gratified at the enthusiastic response
OF the city council which just passed
a resolution authorizing work to be-
! gin In the morning. 1 appreciate the
splendid spirit of cooperation that
has existed during our conferences
and feel sure that we have all come
to a basis of common understand
ing"
The salient points in the agree
ments reached are in brief an general
terms as follows:
Work on townsite to begin i'm
mediately.
Government to advance approx
mately $445,O00 for civic improve
ments, without interest for a period
of four years.
improvements installed under gov
eminent supervision to consist of
water works supply and distribution
system, sewer system, side walks,
streets and grading.
Cost of waterworks system to be.
assessed against lots and lots ad-
vanced 10 per cent in price over ap-
praised value.
Setting aside Of $4,000 to take
care of landscape improvements,
such as trees, parks and parkings.
City to act as agent for sale OF lots
and receive 10 per cent commission
thereon as means of raising money
for municipal government during
period of transition from old to new
city.
City Well Pleased
The agreement as at present set up
comedies the city practically every
thing asked in the report of the citi-
zen's committee. 1t will not be neces-
sary to bond to pay for the water
works system and over half the cost |
of the system will be assumed by the |
government The estimated cost of |
the waterworks system Is $145,OOO
and Reuger springs is designated as
the source of supply.

can Falls is today advertising for
bids for the construction of water
works, sewer, sidewalks and street |
