SAL WALTON ARMY
REVOLUTION

This is the title which the
Literary Digest gives to the
conflict between the London
office of the Salvation Army
and Evangeline Booth, COM
manded of the American Sal
walton Army. The trouble
comes from the attempt of w.
Bramwell Booth to make him
self the head of the world Sal
walton Army following the
death of the late Gen. William
Booth.
Evangeline Booth is, like
Bramwell Booth and Balling-
ton Booth (Head of the Volun-
teers of America), a child of
Gen. William Booth, founder
of the Salvation Army. Upon
the death of Gen. William
Booth, Bramwell Booth, of
London, became the commander
of the worldwide organization,
and altho Evangeline Booth
has been the commander of the
American forces for 22 years,
Bramwell has twice-in192O and
in 1923-tried to remove his
sister from her position. His
excuse was that their father
had established shifting officers
as an organization policy. The
American forces however have
protested so vigorously that
Evangeline has not been re-
moved. With her reappoint-
ment, it looks as if the Decla-
ration of Independence Of the
American Salvation Army is
near at hand.
And indeed, the question has
often been raised in Alaska as
to why the Alaska Army should
be tied to the Canadian Army.
While the officers who have
been sent to Alaska have been
fine workers, why should Amer
lean citizens receive their or
ders from Canada? Aren't there

EARNINGS OF sE|NERS

Not long ago, a subsidized
newspaper made the statement
that Everybody made money
last summer except few sein-
ers who insisted on fishing in
inland waters"
The purpose of the article
was to fool people who live in
cities and also those outside of
Alaska. 1t certainly could not
have been meant to make the
seiners think they had a lot
of money when the facts are
otherwise.
We have gone to a great deal
of trouble to find out what the
recognized expert seiners real
ly did make and herewith pub
lish a partial list, the name of
the boat captain being first
mentioned followed by the
number of hunpies and dog

A BAD PRACTICE

"The commissioner (Billy
Thomas of Wrangell) did not
give him a Jail sentence as has
been reported, but assessed his
(Saito's) punishment at fine
of $40 and costs. 1t was in
default of the payment of the
fine and costs that the defend
ant was committed (not sent
enced) to jail"
The personal equation here
is immaterial, altho even a Jap
is entitled to justice and
should be defended from perse-
cution. The objectional thing
is that this Jap was accused of
criminal trespass in Judge
Thonas's court at WrangelI
when the ony question to be
decided was "Who owned the
sidewalk between his house
and his neighbor.
The issue is a civil question
strictly. The plaintiff has no
right to call in the United
States government by charging
a criminal offense and thus
have his rights" decided cheap.
Criminal trespass is only pro-
perly chargeable when posses
sion is actual and a breach of
the peace imminent.
The reason We know that
this is the usual practice of
Billy Thomas of Wrangell is
because we had it from his
own mouth.

Mutual Savings Banks Barred

 It is understood that all the com- mercial banks in the city did like wise, except the savings bank.
