FOR WHOSE BENEFIT

Next week will be gathered at Faines, the delegates to the con- yention of the Alaska Native Brotherhood to discuss various problems affecting their inter eSts. Chief of which are the sal mon fisheries of the Territory.
 A complete study has been made of the condition of the fisheries of the First Division from Dixon Entrance to Yaku- tat; a study of salmon catch and earnings of crews has been gathered; a report completed as to the regulation and enforce ment made. The scope of which study and effort beyond that O1 aE1y man or organizations will bring to the attention of Con- greSs the condition of affairs in such manner as to be indisput- able.
 The Indians of the First Di- vision are working to better the entire fishing fleet of the Terri tory so that Alaska may be 3 better place for every fisherman and every businessman to live in.
 For the past ten years this or ganiZation has been maligned by predatory interests for po- litical purposes; it has received no financial support from white fisherman or business man-in sOite of the truth Of their ef- forts.
 From this convention will come the seed which will eventually get the fisheries of Alaska on 8 real basis of conservation. This convention will be as important to the adopted residents of Alas ka as the Native.
 A careful study of their effort is invited.

WORTHY CONDEMNATION

The. Senate adopted the Nor ris resolution reprimanding Sen ator Bingham of Connecticut for taking an officer of the Connec- ticut Manufacturers Associa- ton into the secret sessions of the Senate Finance Committee at a tinle when the bill was be- ing framed. While the blow was somewhat sweetened it reminds the Senate that such conduct is an insult to 3 government of the people, for the people, by the people.
 nary a reply. Recently Govern or Young of California was re- ported as studying the case with 2 view to fighting the injustice.
 Now comes a woman in Ohio who declares that her brother made a deathbed confession to 'her that on a promise of being well paid" he planted the suit lease of explosives which de- 'stroyed a building and several lives.
 Nothing the State of Califor- ria can do at this time to recom- .pense the men for the thirteen years in the penitentiary-the tullness of those years of life are gone. Only the clearing of the James of those men, who were sacrificed upon the alters of greed can be returned to them in ia measure. That should not be tardy.

THE WAGES OF SIN

Closes now a chapter in the life of a modern, moneyed fam ly. Two different judges, one in California and the other in Washington, after sitting in judgement decree that Alex Pantages, theatrical man of Se- attle must sit in restrospection, domiciled in a federal home, un- der guard for long term of years for his attempted criminal assault upon a young woman who had gone to his office seek ing work.
 A just reward for a man held in contempt by the theatrical profession and others who knew the story of an ingrate turning upon the woman through whose efforts he secured success. The way of the transgressor is hard

s DISGRACE TO AMERICANS

On another column we are re- printing from the pen of Vera L. Connolly in Good Housekeep- ing, a story under the caption Of We Still Get Robbed" "A Cen tury of Dishonor" is reaching in to another century of discredit to a liberty loving people, The ignorance of the American citi- Zens and their apathy to frauds, scandals and conspiracies by the Indian Bureau and it's parasitic leeches, is appalling.
 The story as told by Vera Con .noly has been substantiated in every particular by 9 special committee of the Senate which included Senators Lynn J. Fra ,zier of North Dakota and Bur ton K. Wheeler of Montana. The duplicity of former COmmis- 'siOner of Indian Affairs was eX- 'posed by these able senators and 'all down the line they expose Q disgusting mess which for nau- seating putrid aroma is uneX- celled.

Tn 1916 in San Francisco was held big Preparedness Parade on which day explosives were set on one of the streets, wreck ing a building and killing sever al by-standers. Tom Mooney and Billings were arrested for this crime and convicted. Later ev- cry witness was proven a perjur- or and the vidence cooked to secure conviction Of the labor leaders.

THE RED GROSS DRIVE

The Drive for Red Cross Mem tership is on. The first unit re- porting in was the village of Yakutat.
 Many have 9 wrong concep- ton of the work of this great orr ganization and the expenditure of its moneys.
 Looking back the past year in our own Alaska, in our own United States and then across to Europe and other continents, We see the workings of Q wonder fIl organization in its humani- tarian functions.
 Truly, every town in Alaska should follow Yakutat and give an early and generous response to the call of the Red Cross.

GAME COMMISSION MAKES
 GOOD START

The Game Commission which Inet in Juneau last week, made Ia start in the right direction when it permitted the killing of grizzly and brown bear in all rarts of Alaska, limiting to a bag Iof two only in certain sections .of the country.
 It appears to this paper that the life of one federal employee 'cOunts for more than the many .Others that have been torn to pieces, most severely wounded or in a number of cases, killed out right.
 Alaskans can go back the past two decades, counting the toll of deaths by the brown and grizzly bear, which if they had been federal employees, would have made early difference in the re- gulations.
 The fisher folk dared not go |aShore at the head Of Tyee as
 the bear there have chased the women folk and children right
 up to the cannery. Last summer one woman had to sit in stark terror whilst 3 big brownie nozad around her cabin, and she all alone, unable even to call for help; one man nailed two hides to his cabin wall and he did not have to leave his cabin to get them; the previous summer one fisherman had to talk like Dutch uncle for having two pelts which were secured within a few yards of the cannery cabins. And all along that shore of Admiral ty those big bear abound.
 No number of bear in the Ter rltory is as valuable as the most illlterate Indian or any other race. If preservation of these brutes is the aim of the Commis- sion or of the Biological Survey, then this humble publication
 suggests that the Game Commis- sion and Biological Survey se- cure a number of these Horna- cay pets and turn them loose in the Wilds of Pennsylvania and other thickly populated states and then make it illegal to kill the animals. Such game reserves should be established if it is the sincere desire to preserve the species from extinction. Alaska has enough worries without be- ing the sanctuary of man-kiuingI

 However, this publication con- graduates the Commission on taking a step in the right direc- ton. The next step is a bounty on the animals as is being advo- (cated in Canada.

vO|CHT UNSUCCESSFUL
 START LONG VOYAGE

Rolled by Father Neptune in the initial step of his projected sea trip, by canoe, from the Port of Seward to the Port of New York, Albert Voight, who left Seward last Sunday returned to port at an early hour this morning.
 The young German reports he has been laying in Harding En- trance since the day he left here as the mountainous Swells forbid any attempt to ride their crests; and that twice he was swamped when he did try to get out onto the ocean. Voight returned to Seward tired out from his long and lone vigil and soon after his arrival Init the hay for well deserved rest.
 Voight's plans are undecided at this time but he will either have someone pilot him out of the En- trance or go to Ketchikan and be- gin his proposed sea voyage. from that point.

COMMUNICATION

Among the numberlesS ridi- culouS bills preoffered for passage by our late and lamented Legis-
 lature was one authorizing all
 Notaries Public to solemnize mar
 riages.
 I will attempt to diagnose or
 define a Notary Public which, I
 will admit, sounds like a very
 high official with boundless juris- dictional powers and authority, ] but dear people don't be deceived
 by his appellation. He is not
 dangerous, but on the contrary
 the tamest, most modest, most inferior, infinitestimal and power less creature the law produces It
 is not necessary that he knows
 anything and the law makes no
 provision as to his or her age, sex, race or previous condition of servitude. Any sap, mutt, cissy
 girl or prankish boy may be
 Notary Public who can raise $10 and induce some friend or rela- tive to sign as surety on his little bond Many business houses and professional men have one or two
 of them and every Police and other lawyer is one himself, in fact the woods" are full of them.
 Now this wise statesman, who ever he was, wanted them all to
 be able to solemnize the marriages of our sons and daughters. He was willing that the ceremony should be robbed of all it's solemnity and dignity by being united in the
 Holy Bonds of Matrimony by some sap, cissy girl or some sub terfuge of lawyer q don't mean to say that all Notaries Public are Such) but of a class there are legion. Priests, Arch Priest, Bish- cps and U. s. Commissioners except perhaps the last named officer) attach some degree of holynesS and Solemnity to a mar riage ceremony and the occasion attaches a few "Copeckers" to the pockets of those poor under paid and underfed divine repre- sentatives and court officials.
 am informed this great states man wanted his bill passed so { that lovers would not have to tra- vel far to be made ONE. Right here I'll wager the statesman is a bachelor That he does not know \ bye annihilateS distance. That the main and towering are no barrier to a couple bent on pledging their roth. He seems blind to the fact that these two human cooing doves would welcome the distances, |: he oceans and the mountains, f, for no other reason than it : would afford them double honey noon: one going to and one re- from the alter.
 Strange to say the bill did not : pass.

9Th TO 18th FIRE
PREVENTION WEEK
Here Are IL Suggestions fol
Checking up on Fire Hazards

Checking up on Fire Hazards
in Home Heating
The week beginning October 8
has been set aside as Fire Preven-
tion Week. During this week it is
expected citizens to do their part
to prevent fires. The Pacif coast
and the state of Washington in
particular, has suffered untold
losses through carelessness. A por-
tion of this carelessness can no
doubt be attributed to lack of
knowledge of what should be done.
One of the most important items
contributing to this loss, is that
of heating hazards. The sugges-
tions offered are those which thru
many years of experience in the
fire prevention field have been
found thoroughly practical and
though apparently simple are
worthy of your most careful at
tention.
It is suggested that every house,
holder check over his heating ar
rangements now, so that there
may be no loss from negligence or
lack of proper precautions or re-
pairs.

More Mystery
y y y
Light Subject

The street was dark save for
the feeble CLEANS cast by street
lamp overhead. At the intersec-
tion red light glowed close to
the pavement. Two figures stood
in the center of the street, hating
every car that approached. With
mysterious contrivance the tall
er figure stepped to the front of
each car and fiddled around a mo-
ment, returning to the side of the
river to write cryptic remarks in a
little book. In the shadows stood
a small group of men watching the
proceedings.
"Oho!" says to myself. "And
what might this BET" So l piled
into the flivver and cantered up to
the street crossing, stopped most
obligingly for Mr.. Carnahan, for
it was indeed he. He went through
the rituals, and I deduced that it
had something to do with the head
lights.
"And have you a drivers Ii
cense 2" he asked in a deep voice.
Eyes sir, but I left it home," 1
said politely. (Isn't that line
from one of those Famous Last
Sayings jokes, / wondered with a
sinking feeling.)
swell, I'll take your word for
it."
Oh. joy, oh rapture! He takes
my word, and I'm still free. Fin
ally Mr.. Carnahan tore sheet
out Of his official book and ten
dered it to my shaking hand.
'Get your headlights adjusted
at a garage, get the adjuster to
sign here, put one-cent stamp on
the back and drop it in the post

KENNEWICK WINS
IN TOUCHET GAME
Orange Phantoms Score 1870 in
Practice Tilt; Pendleton
Is Foe Saturday

Orange PnantOms Score 13-V IN
Practice Tilt; Pendleton
Is Foe Saturday
In the practice game with Touch
ct Tuesday, the Kennewick foot
ball eleven won 1870. The playing
on both sides was ragged, Coach
w. E. Linden said in discussing
the game. The orange and black
line did not charge as it should,
and the backfield was slow. The
poor condition of the field was
also deterrant to fast game.
The bright spot of the day was
Bill Frazier's passing. In the last
two minutes of play, his pass to
Crawford started 25-yard run for
touchdown. The tackles showed
good brand of football, Linden
said.
GAS a practice game, this tilt
with Touchet was excellent the
coach continued. "It showed up all
the weaknesses on both sides. We
know what we've got to change
if we want to lick Pendleton,
whom we play Saturday at Pendle-
ton. That game will take every
ounce of talent and energy our men
have"
