LEGIsIATEs FOR CLUBS

Commissioner Henry O'Malley, discussing the fisheries situation of Alaska before the Merchant Ma rine and Fisheries Committee re- gently said: '1ast year the Bureau found itself in a positioan of not b,ing able to meet the demands of the fishermen throughout the coun- try. Only through various clubs which cooperated with the Bureau ln the distribution of fish was the Bureau able to meet the situation we'll as it did,
 Now The Alaskan just wonders why, if the policy advocated by MT. C'Malley were fair, was he unable to secure cooperation of fishermen and why must he needs turn to clubs not dependent upon the fisheries for their living for the support of his policies.

treason of the feedings of the fish, has, as yet given no proof of it's ef- that before the service is extended, some defnit experimental tests should be carried on for a series of years We make the condition, however, that the operations be car- ried on and observations made di- rcctly under competent scientific supervision, not under fishery off, cers Or hatchery officials alone who have no scientific knowledge.
 I've also recommend that more attention be paid to improving the spawning places by ridding them of tncmies of the salmon, and clear ing streams for the passage of the fish, and by taking such other meas ures for the passage of fish as may be deemed prudent in the premises. ,"
 Tn view of investigations, the committee was opposed to the fur rher expenditure of any large sum oe money for the operation and maintenance of fish hatcheries until we have more satisfactory proof that the industry and the country IS receiving some return for the an- nual expenditure of more than $130, OnO in B. c. alone"
 It would be well for legislators and others interested in expenditure of territorial moneys for the pro- pcgation of salmon to get the com plete report of this committee and apply it's principles to the industry in Alaska.

SALMON EsCAPEMENT

The Bureau of Fisheries re- gently made report as to escape Ilent of salmon to spawning ground The count over the hump" of the falls at Anan Creek, back of Wran- gell from June 12 to August 31 was 121,7S7.
 A sad commentary on the eff1- ciency of the Bureau of Fisheries fur it was but a few years ago when 150,000 salmon could be taken from tie vicinity of the creek; when hauls of ten to thirty thousand sal mon could be made; when one crew alone caught and brailed fish from & haul that totaled over fifty thousand; when the Alaska Pack CTS put up sixty-seven thousand cases before the 30th of August, without counting the thousands that were taken from their trap to Lor- ing, along with other thousands that were caught from the same stream by the Lake Bay, Santa Ana and other canneries.
 Many more thousands of salmon escaped than now indicated by the preservers of the Alaska salmon in- dustry in Washington.
 And yet Mr. O'Malley and others interested in the regulating of the industry would have us believe that depletion is not present.

LITERACY TEST FOR VOTERS

The much heralded literacy test for voters; the political ammuni- ton of the sexless political party finally passed the House of Repre- sentatives. The House did not see fit to disenfranchise voters of Alas ka therefore amended the law to pr vide that any one who had ex- ercised his right of franchise should not lose that right.
 It is only right, and The Alaskan is on record to this effect that their be an educational requirement be- for the right of franchise shall be elected But it is and has been the contention that the law should be made equally applicable to any and every citizen presenting himself for the election of his rights.
 Under the White Bill as written by the attorney for the Alaska Pack ers', a qualified voter under the laws of New York could be disqualified in Alaska but upon his return to another State could again elect his lranchise A principle of law which proponents of the White Bill re- fused to consider was the prin- c:ple of not making a law retro active However, the fairness of REAL Americans in Congress would not permit the political pewees of Alaska to run their shinanigans through national legislators.
 The Alaskan predicted but recent ly that the Literacy Test for Voters m Alaska would have hard sledding iii the Senate. It conceded that un- der the gag rule in the House it could pass However this is now a political issue in the discard and it is well for the voters of Alaska settle down to real issues of vital import to the Territory.

DADS PRAYER

A Methodist preacher was sick, and as usual the finance committee was way in arrears with his salary. The deacons of the church gathered at his bedside offering prayers for return of health and the Lord will ing that much needed salary be se- cured. In the midst of fervent pray CT, came a loud knock at the door. One of the deacons going to the door saw a small boy who said, Dad didn't have time to come but he sent his prayers and there on the wagon was much need vege- tables, other food and some cloth ing to help the old preacher over the rough spots.

shipped from the Seward Peninsula and Northwestern Alaska districts last year, according to E. L. Raines chief of the Bureau of Education's reindeer service in this area, in an interview given to the Cordova Times.
 Local storage facilities and freez- er transportation are at present the big handicaps to more extensive shipments of carcasses, MT. Raines said. The Bureau of Education and private owners of large deer herds have only a limited storage srace for animals, and the steam ship cold storage facilities are not capablt of meeting tn demands on it.. -Anchorage times

Mayor Locken in the Press cor rvcts us as follows relative to a statement credited him at the last P. T. A. meeting and mentioned in our columns. He says:
 ''As I believe that every tax pay CT has a right to krow the fnan- ,ial condition of the Town, I made the following statement: The City is in better financial condition to- day than it has been for the past tour years. I will not say what the next City Council should or will do but it is my opinion that if suit able classrooms and a gymnasium can be erected for a sum between $10,000 and $15,000 that during the coming year the council may be able to devise ways and means to make that amount available"

 ASKS MORE MONEY
 The Bureau of Fisheries asked for and received $5O,O0O for a hatchery on Puget Sound; and it is safe to say lobbyists will ask for hundred thousand to squander on the little fishes in the next two years.
 As business proposition, MT. J. R Heckman would not invest Il cents of his. own money in fish hatcheries, but he would have the Territory squander almost a hun dred thousand in a proposition in which he has no faith himself. INVESTIGATE B. c. HATCHERIEs
 In 1922 the British Columbia Fish Commission met and after se- rious study made a report and re- concentrations which it might be we'll for the American commissions to study.
 Twelve hatcheries were in opera tion in B. c. at an annual cost of between $13O,OOO and $14O,0O0.
 CLOSED PERIODS
 With two nights a week closed to fishing it was estimated that an av- craze of 12O,0O0 fish escaped to spawning grounds. As high as 80, coo salmon had escaped in one night, beside the many that are able to get by the nets during the week: Therefore in 10 weeks of op- eration 100000 fish escape cap- rure and proceed to spawning g1 ounds.
 Reference to Canadian. hatcheries may we'll be applied to Alaska hatch cries: Tt appears to us that hatch cries were built and operated in very blind and unmethodical way, and evidently for the purpose of making this service an important enc. This is borne out by the fact that the Bon-Accord hatchery in the. Fraser River district was found, af- ter 30 years operation, to be useless owing to it's, situation and closed in 1914"
 Gamers and fishermen were in complete accord that hatcheries cid not meet with the situation and was useless expenditure of money. "The heads of canning and gen. eral fish business in New Westmin- :ster said the past hatchery methods have proved, a failure" Heads of other large companies. said it would be better to depend on natur- al propogation; no results in sock eye hatching; improve spawning grounds; no results apparent.

WASTE OF MONEY

The Bureau of Fisheries, thru it's head, Commissioner O'Malley re- gently asked Congress for an appro- rriation of between $400,00O and $5OO,000 for hatchery work, ''to further cooperate with sportsmen ln supplying streams with game hsh.
 The last Legislature appropriated some $8O,00O for the maintenance Of fish hatcheries in Alaska. For many more years private hatcheries owned and operated by the packing interests have secured return of taxes based on the number of sal rnon fry released.
 Yes Bay hatchery after many years of operation on one of the great sockeye streams of Alaska can only point to a stream depleted of salmon. The same may be said of Naha, Loring; Hecata hatchery on the West Coast of Prince of Wales; McHenry's Inlet on Etolin

to be on eof the hottest election

What began as a purely local
questionable election of a Con-

action of the Democratic district
convention in denouncing the Vol

f1eation.
Republican Quits Race
Following adoption of their modi-
flcation plank, the Democrats nomi-
mated Judge S. Harrison White, for
mer chief justice of the Colorado
Supreme Court, as their candidate.
White accepted the issue squarely
and is attacking operation of the

Republicans nominated Finlay L.
Mcfarland, auto dealer and CAPT.
talist, in convention dominated by
United States Senator Lawrence
Phipps, but after six days as a can
didate Mcfarland withdrew. He
gave i'll health as the reason.
State Senator Francis j. Knauss
was then selected as Republican
standard bearer. Knauss, a strong
Phipps supporter and formerly one
of the leaders in the Ku-Klux Khan
faction in the State Legislature, has
announced himself as a dry.
While thus raising the dry ban
