DR. H0RNADAY OF ZOO FAME
 THINKS EASTERNERS KNOW BEST
 HOW TO HANDLE ALASKA CAME

Dr. Hornaday, in charge of the New York Geological Exhibition, who has taken it upon himself to try and promulgate rules, regulations and laws governing the game of Alaska, has written a letter to Attorney Frank H. Foster, of this city, and Representative to the Territorial Legislature from the Third Division, which we are glad to publish. Not that it contains any truth or infor- nation of value, but to show how little the writer knows of conditions in Alaska and the impertinence on his part in assuming to dictate what laws are best for us. The letter follows:
 Having recently heard of your suc- cessful efforts to pass upon the en- dorsement of the Sutherland Alaska Game Bill by the Cordova Game Pro- tective Association, I am naturally most interested by your letter, and in- debted to you for having written to me.
 I have heard, from several sources, that some of the game wardens of Alaska are now very actively opposing the Sutherland bill evidently for the purpose of keeping the appointive power over their positions in the hands of the Governor of Alaska. I have not heard, however, of any of the game wardens of Alaska having made any brilliant records in the pro- tection of Alaskan game, and it is nv opinion that some of them are much more interested in politics than in game protection.
 At the present moment there is too much politics per capita in Alaska. Recently it balled up the governorship to such hopeless extent that Presi- dent Harding found himself compelled to go outside of Alaska in order to ap- point a Governor who would not be torn to pieces by the defeated fac ton. That unfortunate occurrence gave a very black eye to Alaska's as Dirations for statehood and complete self-government. During Governor Riggs term of office, he complained

RIVALRY AT WHITE HEAT IN TONIGHT'S BALL GAME

Another fight to the finish is on deck for tonight, when the High School Girls and Ladies' Town Team meet for the fourth basket ball game of their series.
 The Ladies have walked away with the three games already played, and if they win tonight they will be en- titled to possession of the cup and seven small silver basket balls put up as trophies by a local business man for the team winning four out of seven games.
 But the Ladies haven't the cup and miniature balls yet. If they do beat the Girls again they will know they have been in a game, for they are going up against bunch of fighting demons. There is not one of the school girls who would not give her left eye tooth to win this game and at least prevent her team from being goose-egged in the series.
 On the other hand, the Ladies are de- termined to end the struggle in four victories in a row. Therefore, the fast est and most exciting game that these teams have yet played is anticipated tonight.
 The game will start at 8 o'clock.
 An error was made in the standings of the mems teams as last published The corrected percentages are:
