Hoquiam Water Battle

The city of Hoquiam is having } battle royal with the Oregon Washington Water Service Com .pany. The company has filed two new appeals in an effort to rrevent the city from acquiring the system by condemnation proceedings.
 The actions filed were a straight appeal asking for a writ oE supersedeas and Q petition for a writ of certiOrari
 In the appeal for writ of cer- tiorari, attorneys for the com pany contend that the judge ment of condemnation, appro- priation and award, the decree of possession were illegal, erron- eous and void They question ed the constitutionality of the laws upon which the decress were based, insofar as they per init condemnation and appropri- ation of a public utility and ac- cord condemnor immediate pos session.
 The petition continued that the action was not supported by the record, nor was there auth ority for the award of public utility until final determina- tion of a just compensation. They declared that no value had 1 been placed on certain supplies land equipment which were to change hands.

TARIFF ON CLANS

The committee considering the tariy measure now before Congress, has proposed a change ln the bill which would put the cl2ms under a duty of 20 per cent ad valorem in stead of 35 per cent. This was done as a matter of protection to the American clam. It is contended that a 35 per cent duty would tedn to such an intensive fishing that the American clam beds would be soon be destroyed.
 Heretofore the clans have been on the free list which pre- cludes Territorial clans from becoming an active competitor If foreign clans.

Has Narrow Escape
 From Bear

H. c. Hughes, manager of the mining operations in the Burns Lake Section, B. C., for the Con- 5olidated Mining Company, es- capped death when attacked by a bear by feigning death. It will be an experience that time will not erase from his memory.
 He was going from one of the company's camps to another and vas suddenly encountered by a bear when he stepped over a
 -I1On. As much surprised as the
 nan, the bear leaped to his hind feet and then charged as he struck. Hughes slipped limp to the ground and was bit on the tide of the face by the bear. The bear next caught him at the back of the neck but fortunately did not close his jaws.
 A wound on the thigh was made by the bears claws, one finger broken but not bitten off and marks of fangs on his neck, but not serious.
 For a half hour Hughes lay on the ground after the bear had mauled him, but he did not lose consciousness. He did not even open his eyes nor move for fear the bear would again attack him. inally he got to his feet and started for the nearest camp Which he reached after eleven hours. He was taken to Van couver in an airplane after re- ceiving first aid at the Burns Lake Hospital.

FUR PRICES ON TOBOGGAN

The recent heavy declines on the New York Stock Market has depressed conditions generally throughout the country, affect ing business conditions from one end of the land to the other. Consequently the fur market is very much unsettled at present and should anticipate declines fully tWenty-zve per cent on all items according to the Seattle Fur Exchange of Seattle. Fos : tunately this decline is early ano the markets will probably have recovered getting prices back to normal before pelting season arrives. As soon as the market again becomes stabilized, it is the purpose of the Seattle Fur Exchange to pass that informa- tion along to the trade and pro- ducers.

Boy Scouts Arc Reorganized

During the past summer, the National Boy Scout Council de legated the entire Territory of Alaska to the Seattle Council, displacing the Tacoma super vision of the territorial Scout work.
 During the past summer MT. Ronald R. Ruddiman while on vacation to the territory, passed through Petersburg and made arrangements for a trip this fall to be made by Field Executive Fred K. Baker who is responsible for all the troop outside the city of Seattle including Alaska.
 MT. Baker is now covering the work in the territory and is with the men to learn lccal conditions. Soon he will local conditions. It is expected that he will soon place full ex- ecutive time in the territory, and organizing scout troops in all communities, in the outlying native will lages.
 This program will be financed locally as much as is possible and the balance will have to be raised outside from men inter eSted in this fine work.
 A local representative will be on the Executive Board of the Council who will vote at the re- gular meetings ither by letter. proxy or in person to determine various policies of the council.

Smallest Pack
 Ever"

Says the Pacific Fisherman official organ of the salmon packers of Alaska and Puget Sound:
 "The 1929 pack of Scotch toured Alaska herring will be the smallest put up since this meth 0d of packing went into vogue il 1918. This became apparent with the close of the Southeast Alaska herring season, Septem- Der 30, when estimates for total production of the territory put the figure at less than 26.OOO barrels"
 Brokers who study the situa- ti0n carefully declare that to the middle of September, there had been no herring of prime quality shipped out of Alaska"
 \ Southeast Alaska swarm ed with fish during September, out they were small, and not of high curing quality"
 The opinion of Alaska fisher men and others who study the fisheries, that lack of the Scotch cure sized herring is a mark of depletion of that fisheries. The report in this same magazine positively states that the Prince William Sound and Aleutian areas were the saving spots of that fishery. Inasmuch as the reduction plants have not taken as heavy a toll ir those districts it would indicate that the theory Of depletion of the herring is due to the fertilizer plants, is an incontrovertable fact.

High licence Now
 Effective

The license fee on non-resi- dent fishermen, passed by the fast legislature, became of effect as of the 1St day of August. The fishermen who procured their 1929 license before that date are protected for the calendar year. Any applicant after that date will have to pay the higher 1i-
 It is being reported that the nonresident fishermen, prob ably through the Seattle Troll ers' Association, will take direct opposition to the measure and carry it into court on the ground that it is unjust and diScrimina- tory. Ii is probable that the first step to te taken will be the se- curing of an injunction to have enforcement of the law restrain edd while it's constitutionality is tested. Those members of the Association who have given the law serious study declare that it can be attacged and is vulner- able on 9 number of points. It is not improbable that they will make their attack during the winter term of courts.

Fall Found Guilty Accepting Bribe

Last Friday eight men and four women sitting as jurors in Washington, D. O., in the case ot U. $. vs. Albert B. Fall, charged with accepting $100,00O bribe money from E. l.. DOheney in exchange for an invaluable oil lease on the naval oil reserves, brought in a verdict of guilty.

 The eX-cabinet officer faces a penalty of three years in the penetentiary and a fine three times the amount of his bribe or $3OO,OGO.
 The loan was considered just "a loan from one old friend to another" by Doheney so that the verdict was . stunning blow to Fall and to his friend Dohen- ey. Fall took the blow without expression. He is an old man fnd having gene through con- siderable sickness along With his worry over the charges, it is hardly expected that he will survive the sentence. Some thirty exceptions were taken in the trial by counsel for defense and it is very probable that a new trial will be demanded.
