Cook Inlet Wants An Open Season
 On Beaver

The Alaska Game Commission will be asked to open the season on beaver and marten in the Cook Inlet district, and to adopt regula- tions calculated to conserve these varieties of fur, according to a resolution adopted by the Cook In let Trappers and Game Protective Association, says the Anchorage Times.
 The meeting WAS lelG in the ban Quet rooms of tte Anchorage Grill with IS members present. many of the remaining large membership being engaged at the present time in getting supplies to the traplines.
 In addition to requesting per mission to trap beaver and marten the association ordered resolu- tion drawn and presented to the visiting delegation of Congressmen requesting that a bill be passed permitting Alaska to choose by ballot a representative of each fur district to serve with the federal appointees on the Alaska Game Commission.
 In approaching the matter of trapping beaver and marten the general discussion and debate re- yealed that 1t was the sense of the members to stamp out abuses of the trapping regulations, especially bootlegging of illicit furs. In line with this movement a vote was taken on the question of the limit of each variety of belts and the season in which they should be taken. A large majority favored limit of 20 beavers to be taken in December, January and February. The Commission was also asked to prohibit the shooting of beaver.
 These dates were decided on as a bar to those whom it is claimed have brought these varieties of fur into disrepute by infractions of the fur laws. It is claimed that all abuses complained of have come from those taking licenses solely to trap beaver during the 30-day open season of April. when non- trappers could take a small amount of food on a handsled, follow brok- entrails to the beaver region, and, oftentimes bring back bootleg fur, or fur caught during the closed seasons. It was argued that once these trappers are compelled to fare forth in midwinter and estaP- fish a trapline they will cease to bring the bona fide trapper into disrepute.
 In considering the question of marten and beaver jointly, 1t was pointed out that the present cus- tom of closing on one or two vari- cities worked a greater decimation of fur than if all varieties could be taken and certain species be limited; that when a trapper was confined to one or two varieties he was forced to take every pelt pos sible to make expenses or profit. By spreading his catch over a num- Der of varieties he would thus ere ate a better safeguard against dec imation.
 In the general debate on the question of representation on the Game Commission it was the sense of all present that the surest way to secure popular and easily enfor- cible regulations was by represen- tation on the commission of men experienced in all matters of fur and trapping. As this power can be granted only by Congress, the members instructed the executive

committee to draft q resolution, pointing out many features of the fur industry and the effect of some regulations as at present applied, and ask for a greater measure of home rule for the Territory in the power to elect members of the gov erning body, now solely responsible to the Department of Agriculture.
 One of the remarkable features of the meeting was the number of young men present and the enthu- siasm with which the session was conducted. Anyone dropping in might have taken the assemblage to be that of any one of number of groups of urban dwellers in- stead of men who are out in the front line trenches of civilization. showing back the wilderness. Many of these young men have their brides with them in eozy little base cabins. where most of the comforts of rustic homes may be found. including gardens. To these men trapping Is not the vocation of old men with long boards, who. like Trader Horn suggests, have been driven out of the herd. Trap ping is a profession. and as such they are seeking to give it the dignity of other branches of busi- ness.

However, Officer Scott reports that from the ecd of November to December 10th some thousands of sockeye fish which closely resembled those seen at the Gate entered and spawned in kawkawa Lake small lake near Hope. He had never known sock. eye to enter that lake so late in the year. The number of females great ly outnumbered the males.
