OUR NEW CITIZEN
PROMINENT JUNEAU ATTOR-
 NEY NOW NATURALIZED

Attorney Herbert Lional Faulk- ner, prominent attorney of Juneau, Alaska, was granted his final certi- ficate of citizenship on December 1, 1925. MT. Faulkner is now full fledged citizen of the United States.
 MT. Faulkner has been one of the most active politicians in Alaska.
 In the last campaign, he went up and down the country speaking for the Democratic ticket and against what he called the "Paul" ticket, pointing the danger of letting na tive born Indian citizens run Alaska.
 He was also the United States Marshal of the First Division, being the tool of the conspirators headed by Shackleford when by intrigue these men got Dan Suther- land deposed from the marshalship. He then served as marshal for seven years.
 During these years when he was not a citizen he has voted at precincts outside of Juneau where his questionable status as a citizen was unknown; for example, he is known to have voted at Petersburg.
 We wonder if District Attorney Shoup will place this matter before the grand jury, remembering that MT. Shoup was instrumental in prosecuting Charlie Jones, a na- tive born Indian citizen, for voting, charging him with "voting when he had no right to vote."
 It is quite interesting to note that MT. Faulkner has been the loudest in asking the Legislature to pass literacy test for voters, He can read, and knew the fraud which he was practising. There are things worse than being unable to read the Constitution.

BUSINESS OR POLITICS

The Seattle Alaska Weekly de- nounces the bill which the Hon. Dan Sutherland introduced in Con- gress making it unlawful to build or operate a fish trap. It ques- tions whether Sutherland's motive is "Business or Politics" and con- cludes that it must be Politics.
 The Seattle Weekly goes on and says, "This bill is plain politics and could not have been inspired by any other consideration. Poor politics. we are inclined to think, for considerable Alaskan capital is invested in traps, but none the less politics."
 We will pass over the fact that the editor of the Weekly is a land lubber who knows nothing about fish, except perhaps what he can buy in a pretty can. But just the same, that fact permits us to dis regard his comparison of the fish trap and the "foatine gear" as sources of the depletion of the salmon.
 It was thought that the passage of the White Fish Bill would be sufficient to stabilize the fishing industry. This was on the theory that the Bureau of Fisheries would do what was needful. It is plain to the most casual but impartial observer however that the Bureau of Fisheries is largely controlled by the big Packers or else lacks the courage to apply the ax to the fish trap at once. It rather puts of the evil day.
 On this account, Dan Sutherland has brought the subject before Con- gress. This bill will compel the con- sideration of the fish trap and it's relation to the fishing industry. The Bureau of Fisheries would evade the subject. The question must be settled. Nor do we have any fear about the ultimate de- cision for we know what we have

ANT|:TRAP BILL

VIII Oc DEOuSHC SQudrely De1Ofe Congress.
 The bill to abolish or to prohibit fish traps has been introduced by our Delegate in Congress, the Hon. orable Dan Sutherland. This is the most important measure ever brought before Congress so far as it effects Alaska. It is even more important than self govern ment
 The fish trap is the direct cause of the depletion of our fisheries It is also the greatest nonresident agency to catch fish. This device catches about 75 per cent of all the salmon caught each year. In round numbers, the fish trap catches over forty million salmon each year. Practically no part of the market price of the fish so caught stays in Alaska. It does not help the resident fisherman or the resident merchant. It all goes to fill the pockets of the Seattle and other owners of fish traps We have cs- timated that the loss to Alaska by this manner of catching fish is over $5OO,OOO in the Juneau district and perhaps $1,000,000 in the Ketchikan district. If the fol- lowing bill becomes law, Alaskans can figure that about $2,OOO,O00 will be paid to resident fishermen who will spend the money with resident merchants, machine shops, boat shops and other supply houses.
 The bill (HRR. 538O) reads as as follows:
 A bill prohibiting the use of stationary fishing appliances in the tidal waters of the Territory of Alaska, and providing a penalty.
 Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Con- gress assembled, Every person who shall set, use, or continue, or who shall assist in setting, using, or continuing any pound, weir, set net, trap, or any fixed or permanent contrivance for catching fish in any tidal waters of Alaska, over which the United States has jurisdiction, is guilty of misdemeanor, and every person convicted of a viola tion of the provisions of this Act shall be punished by a fine of not more than $500, and for a second violation of the provisions of this Act, a fine of not less than $500

The tennis tournament conducted
on the courts here during last week,
was very largely attended and lively
games were played by the partici-

who sent in daily reports to their

The first annual Dewitt family re-
