PR0sPECTORS TO MAKE WAR
BEARS

Prospeetors in the Copper River Valley have declared war on bears. according to the Cordoya Times The feeling for them by prospeetors has never been one of friendliness. but it is especially bitter this year The immediate cause for the increased hostility was two separate attacks on prospectors by bears.
 The first episode was an attack upon Andy Buhlinger. who was dragged from his bed in his tempo rary camp by a bear which severely laeerated his leg. Buhlinger's part Ter, Alex Lamont. was awakened in the night where the two men ha6 eamped for the night. by cries from Bulinger He jumped up to see a bear dragging the imperilled man into the bushes by one leg. He opened fire on the bear and killed it. It took a week to go to Mccarthy for assistance and to bring the injured man to where he could get medical aid.
 The second episode was when Frank Farnum was driven out of his camp and compelled 10 sleep two nights on his cache which he had stored in a cage eighteen feet from the ground.
 The Cordoya Times says prospee- tors will make war on the bears re gardless of what the game laws might be. The paper quotes John E. Barrett, pioneer of Mccarthy, as ia voring the extermination as follows:
 Bears are no friends of the pros
 peetor or pioneer in any country
 and never were. Many a prospee-
 tor has lost his season supplies
 by bears, and had to kill game for
 his food until he could get back
 to where he could buy or borrow
 something to eat.
 There should be no closed sea
 son on bears Let the tourist and
 hunting parties who come here il
 the summer get a crack at a beal
 whenever they get a chance The
 pioneers won't waste ammunition
 on them. Their skins are not
 worth what it costs to get them tC market. W
 When people begin to settle Al
 aska up right, the bears must go
 as they did elsewhere

played and sang, and the village
Squire sat at the head of the
table with his back to the crack

The majestic turkey has re-
placed the historic boar's head;
the -gaily bedecked peacock pie
has given way to mince; a fine

Wilkins Arctic expedition, has left
Point Barrow, en- route back to Fair
banks, presumably without finding any
trace of Capt. George II. Wilkins and
Carl Ben Eielson, Arctic explorers,
who have been missing since they
left Barrow March 29 on a fight over
the Arctic north of Alaska.
Graham, after several flights along
the Arctic coast of Alaska in the
region Of Barrow, and even into "No
Mans Land" over the ice in search
of the lost aviators, flew to KotZebue
yesterday on the first leg of the cir.
cuitous 000.mile trip from Barrow
back to Fairbanks.
Engine trouble was the last
word received from Wilkins and
Eielson. That was on April I. 1t
has been estimated that they are
about 100 miles northeast Of Barrow
on the jagged ice, which is made
doubly treacherous by leads of open
water.
Wilkins left orders with the other
members of the party. Howard Mason,
radio operator; A. M. Smith, news
writer, and Graham, to go back to
Fairbanks If he did not return with

PROTEST TO DAVIS
Charges of III Treatment of I'm
migrants Reported Made
in Message.

SAN FRANCISCO. April 16.-The
Examiner says the Chinese Chamber
of Commerce here has forwarded to
Secretary of Labor Davis at Wash
ington, protest against treatment of
Chinese seeking entry to the United
States through this port.
Among the charges listed against
immigration officials are:
That Chinese men and women of
high caste are held on Angel Island
from three to six months by red tape
and then sometimes are sent home
again.
That the system of examination in
cludes asking of trick" questions de-
signed to confuse the applicants and
keep them out regardless of their
rights.
Edward J.. Haff, acting immigra-
ton inspector, was quoted as denying
allegations of harsh treatment and I'm.
necessary delay and alleging that the
complaint was merely an attack on
the new immigration law.
