HOME BREW CAUSES
 SERIOUS SHOOTING SCRAPE

KODIAK-Because of a misunder- standing about the further exist ence of home brew, Pete Wolkoff is carrying a considerable poundage of lead in his system and James Hudson is bound over to the grand jury soon to convene at Seward. Hudson shot Pete with a shotgun through the door of his own baili- wick. The fact that the charge went through the door probably saved Pete's life but he was pain fully injured and latest physical examination discloses the fact that he has over so lead belts in his body. Some of the buckshot dropped out of his overalls when first aid was applied.

Ben Godstein and ii is tribute to their faith I'm
the future of Spokane One thing too which should

so that they will not be injured by the building
materials with which the grounds are covered.

To You

So short time before we part,
So much that lies within my heart
So dear vision of your face
To hold a sacred memry place.
SO sweet your kiss upon my hair,
So dear the lips that placed it there,
SO soft the eyes that smile farewell
To mine, where hidden tears might dwell.
And through the painted smiles We wear
Each sadness is joy to share;
Each day tender memory,
Each night dream of ecstasy.
And though our paths may never meet,
| pray your life be calm and sweet,
And every blessing fine and rare,
Your soul will rise with God to share.
| pray that you will be too strong
For lowly cowardice and wrong;
That you may surely slowly rise
From gloomy earth to sunny skies
That happiness will fill your heart
And joy and love will take its part,
And in your golden memory
That you may hide one dream of me.

Smedley his assistant IS months ago and who was instrumental in the con- viction of Zack on the first three oc- casions for violationg the dry laws, made an offer last night to defend him gratis on the fourth occasion, as q gesture against that section of the crime code classifying liquor law vio- lations with other felonies and mak- ing it possible to senda respondent to jail for life on liquor law charges
 Dunn has advocated for several month sa change in the crime code that. instead of naming the previous .victions on felony charges in an in- formation charging a respondent with beisg a habitual criminal, that it read as follows:
 "The respondent has%heen convicted on three, or more, previous. occasions of crimes carrying a. minimum pen- atty of one or more years in. g. penal institution"
 s. Such q change would eliminate liquor violation charges as we'll as many more from consideration in a habitual criminal warrant. Dunn and Smedley have both pointed out that a butcher convicted four times of mix ing too much cereal in sausage could be sent to prison for life under the crime code. Such an offense is fel- .ony with a minimum jail. sentence of four months. Violations of various pure food, optometry, drug and other laws carry minimum penalties of less than year.

BUFFALO ADAPT THEM
 SELVES TO ALASKA A RANGE

(E&lrDaQkS NeWS- Mlner.b
 The nerd of buffalo which was im- parred from Montana and placed on range in the Delta district last sum- mer is readidldyd dadapting itself to the new environment, according to re- cent observation.
 Louis Grinsmore is. said to have seen the buffalo on January 27. when he counted IT head. He. observed a large hull,, evidently the leader, about 50 yards in adsanee of the herd. When the bull spotted him he ran back into the herd. The animals immediately formed semi-circle, with their heads lowered, facing, the intruder. Grins- more states that wolves or bears would have no show with these an- mals when they present such a forma- tion for protection. He states that they have developed long. shaggy coat of hair and appear to be in .ex- cellent condition.
 A later observer is Game Warden Sam O. White, who on January 10 and II travelled over the buffalo range. Hee-was accompanied by Operator Mitchell at Big Delta.
 !, The buffalo range from a few miles below Jarvis creek on the Delta to several miles. above, Warden White reports. On both dates storm was in progress and the animals were in refuge in the thickets, which made eb- servation of them impossible. He found. that, they are feeding, on lupine and grass, of which there seems to be an inexhaustible supply. Judging from signs where, they, have bedded down." he says, +"'they. are in excellent condition and are. getting plenty of nourishing food. There is not over six or eight inchesaof snow in the tim ber and none. on the exposed bars, where they feed 7 think they will pull through the, sNinter without the necessity of feeding shayq unless 8 heavy snowfall should .huey. their range.'a."

 For two days telegraph wires have been carrying. scores of messages from police officials judges and prose tutors. and from newspapers in the far Corners of the country anis coun- try and Canada, asking for additional statemdnts and pictures. Some chal- lenge his aceions. many applaud it.

 "Under the new crime code a man could be sent to prison for life for taking four drinks of any intoxicating liquor, since it is possible, to prose cute any drinker under the, prohibi- tiSnsAlay4 Taking drink is viola tion 'efnfhe law, just the same as man. ufacturing. or selling or transporting iauor.

ical condition of Anchorage, climatic conditions and ideal townsite combine to make the city the logical place for the capital, in his opinion.
 The development of Southeastern Alaska is of most. substantial char acter, MT. Anderson says, and it is widely distributed, nearly all of the communities participating in the gen. eral foreward movement. The out look is particularly bright at Juneau, where the big Alaska Juneau gold quartz mine is making splendid showing. This stock recently rose to Sl0 a share.
 Mir. Anderson also, is sure that the establishment of pulp paper plant is that section of Alaska is sure to come at an early-date,- notwithstand- ing the seeming oyerproduction of newsprint at the present time. The first development of the. pulp timber resources, he thinks, will take place in the Ketehikan district, where condi- tions are ideal. The large amount of money expended in investigation and acquisition of timber is regarded as, conclusive, proof that~the companies interested really mean business. @ Further stability of the stability of Southeastern Alaska is seen in the ges- tablishment of chain grocery. stores Lat ketchikan and Juneau, the Piggly Wiggly company now having branches, in both cities. The Juneau store opened quite recently and further ex- pansion is planned. A representative of the company recently visited Pe- tersburg to look over the field ther, and Mr.. Anderson heard that. inc company also planned. u establish branches at. Anchorage. ard .air- Uanks.ss

Heading Off the Press.
Seattle Times. )


 The widespread criticism of the offciousnesa of the customs who greeted the Graf zep- pen upon it's arrival at Lakehurst, N J., last October is deeply resented by that branch of the Governments service. Customs officials contend that they went through the baggage on the diri- gible like Red Grange through clear field. The tedious delays they assert. were chargeable to others. In proof of this statement they print a fulsome letter from unnamed importer in The Customs Service News
 It appears from this letter that all was agog at the Lakehurst hangar Everybody mill ing all over the range and the only group of men noticeaby dignifed and orderly the customs men assigned to the job Presumably they moved with glacial speed, wetting a hair. Continuing, the unidentified importer said
 They also very admirably sensed the
 annoyance and haranguing which the
 passengers would be subjected 10 by
 newspaper reporters and
 quence saved them this very trying
 deal by eXeuding every newspaper
 porter regardless of his affiation until
 after the baggage had been examined.
 Newspaper reporters did not accept
 this kindly and their reaction is con-
 eeivable
 In the opinion of the officious customs men, the arrival of the Graf Zeppelin was secret which must be kept from the public at any cost. Some inkling of the news had got out but they did their best to suppress it. Therefore they kept the passengers cooped up in little room while they medtated what to do There is no evidence that the passengers wished to be saved from telling their experiences to the news papers, but the customs knew best. All for the honor and glory of American officialdom.

GOOD PROPOSAL FROM FAIRBANKS.

The movement started at Fairbanks to have the Alaska Legislature meet the first Monday in February instead of the first Monday in March ought to be carried on to success for the reasons stated by the Commercial Club of that City and for other reasons The Fairbanks business men urged that it would enable the members of the Legislature tc return to their work in April in- stead of keeping them at the capital until May as is the case
 There are other good reasons. The earlier meeting date would enable the people to know earlier in the year of any innovations in the laws, and the laws would go into effect about the first of July instead Of the first of August when the summer season is more than half Aaskans devote the winter and early spring to prepara- tions for the next seasons activity The sooner people could know what will be the requirements of the laws for the coming the better it would be
 In fact, ii would be better to have the Leg islature meet In January-ahout the middle of the month-than the first of February. If the other Fairbanks proposal, the one to have the election held in september instead of November, which also would be an excellent thing, were put into effect there is reason why the Legislature could net meet the first of January That would have the session over and the laws in the statute books where they might he read by early March. in advance of tAe summers activities in mining, fishing ete and the members of the Legislature would nof use time that is valuable to business and industry. It might induce people to accept nominations for the Legislature who cannot now afford to serve lawmakers.
 The earlier date for the election would make certain that all returns could he gathered promptly for it woud come before the freeze-up and before boats stopped running in Boring Sea, the Arctic Ocean and the Interior rivers.

All He Needed

A good many years ago at one of the medical colleges, one of the students failed in examination A wise old professor felt the young man had the making of a doctor and hated to funk him. He called him into the office to ask him 6 few questions Taking him over to the window, the professor pointed to the roof of a tall building, and said: Now, suppose a man fell off the top of that building and you were called to attend him, what instruments would you take?H
 The student measured the dis tance with his eye and then re- piled: "A shovel, a broom and a wheeibarrow"
 He passed.
