of the word because didn't happen to bag three of those wonderful and magnificent animals. Every man to his own way of thinking. I do not pretend to speak for anybody but my self when I say that regard a limit of three brown bear to each hunter as being little short of preposterous. I can speak without hesitation because I went on record with my guides that I wouldn't kill three of those superb
 animals under any circumstances nor would I. As hunter of years of experience, with consistent regard for the wild life of our country and a sane belief in conservation, I would not want such wanton destruction of the great Alaska brown bear on my conscience Such limit is an invi
 tation to the killer" who, in most instances, seems to be more intent on getting his moneys worth" than to secure a worth while specimen of one of the nob1est animals that ever trod the wilderness. Let those who do not agree with me make the most of it. The day will come when the only specimens of this greatest of AL
 aska's wild life will be found only in museums, with the result that our sons and their sons who love the wilder ness trails and the zest of the chase will curse their rtsighted ances- tors for hogging the game and the thoughtless law makers who made such things possible. Alaska's Game Commissioners are to be congratulated on having reduced the limit on brown bear to two for the coming years-and they would not go far wrong if they made it one. That, at least is the way feel about it.

GUS eELLEs' SPLENDID WORK

GUS GELLES' SPLENDID WORK
 While I am on the subject, I am glad to go on record concerning the excellent constructive work that is being done by the Alaska Guides Inc, along these very lines. In gathering worth while, trustworthy and con- scientious guides of the Territory into an organization that will fight for the conservation of the game (if for no other reason than self preservation Secretary Gelles is performing 8 pub lie service, the importance of which isl scarcely to be exaggerated No one realizes the necessity for that kind of. police work more than the hunter who observes the law and asks no more than that others will do likewise. Such an organization is a public asset and richly deserves the earnest support of every pubic-spirited citizen in the Territory"

She and Miss st. Laurent boarded the

The annual benefit of the Village

always of interest. but this year the

DROP RUM RUNNING
CHARGE CHARGE IN COURT
Stanley Kokernack, Former
Policeman, Pleads Guilty
To Simple Assault.
Threatened Officer With Auto Truck
Crank

The several times postponed case
against Stanley kokernack, former
Dudley policeman, originally charged
with the Illegal transportation Of
liquor and breach Of the peace. was
disposed of in the city court. Satur-
day morning. Prosecuting Attorney
e. II. Johnson, stated that the count
for transporting had been stricken out
and only a charge of breach Of the
peace remained against the defendant
The prosecutor recommended dne
of Sis, and costs amounting 10 $ll.27,
a total of 26.27. A plea of guilty was
entered and the fine and costs were
paid.
No evidence was introduced and no
statements were made by counsel.
Attorney /. IL. Miron, who repre-
scented the defendant. asked If koker-
naek's automobile, which has been
held at the state police barracks since
the affair, would be returned 70 him.
Officer Elton I. Nolan said as far as
he was concerned it would be deliver
ed TO the owner.
The Arrest
II was at three o'clock Thursday
morning, July 18th. that State Police
man Nolan saw Kokernsck on his
truck near the lunch cart on Front
street. The officer went to arrest the
man and he threatened the officer
with a crank belonging to the truck.
The officer drew his revolver and
made the arrest.
II was alleged at the time Of the ar
res. that there were five one gallon
cans and two one gallon jugs on the
truck and that they were found TO
contain very small quantity Of alco-
hol. The fact that the transportation
charge was dropped would seem TO
point TO a lack of sufficient evidence
on this count.
II is said that Officer Nolan has once
before arrested Kokernack and that
the ex-polieeman therefore does not
feel kindly toward the officer.
