justice court the Bureau Ot F. 5h- cry official jointly with the representative of the Depart ment of Justice invariably re- fuses a demand except on con- dition that the accused person agrees to plead guilty and pay a stated fine; that With this condition is coupled a threat that if the accused doe5 not agree to plead guilty, that the vessel and ether gear vii be seized in admiralty proceedings, the arresting officer or his su- perior adding further explana- tion that even if the accused wins his case, the time involved to say nothing Of the expense will use up the remainder of the fishing season. That these innocent persons under such compulsion invariably pleau guilty not because such person is in fact guilty, but because the penalty of asserting and proving such persons innocent is many times greater than the penalty of pleading guilty.
 We affirm that this practice is general and not any different from the practice of England of trying the co!onists accused of crime, in England, a practice that is denounced in the De- claration of Independence.
 We, the Natives of Southeast ern Alaska, through the Grand Convention of the Alaska Native Brotherhood, sitting at Ketchi- kan, Alaska, on 14th day of Nov- ember, 1880 respectfully petition the Attorney General of the United States to stop the prac- tice complained of and then join with the Delegate from A. laska in so changing the Fishery laws relating to seizure that no gear can be seized before the person accused of operating the same has been proven guilty.

 Whereas, for the first time in History, sockeyes have appeared at the mouth of KlaWCck Stream in September and as we'll as other smaller streams nearby, in September; that these salmon were discolored, showing they had endeavored to reach their spawning beds a long time prior thereto and that the artificial barrier or obstruction known as a weir in the E7awock Stream undoubtedly prevented sockeyes from going into the stream to spawn, and upon encountering said barrier the sockeyes, through natural instinct, post pOned the period; that the peo- pie of Klawock are all natives and dependent unon the sock eyes for winter food and are be- ing deprived from getting such supply on account of the weir in the mouth of the stream.
 NOW, THEREFORE,, be it re- solved that it is an established fact known to the natives of Alaska and to the inhabitants of KlaWOck that any artificial Ob- struction or barrier. such as a fish weir, is extremely deteri- mental to the propagation of salmon and prevents the salmon from following their natural habits and instincts in spawning and is menace 10 the propaga- tion and welfare of salmon dur ing the spawning season.
 Whereas, the Alaska Native Brotherhood, in Convention as- sembled, respectfully petition the Secretary of Commerce and the Commissioner of Fisheries to investigate the facts herein- before recited and to remove. in the future, all fish weirs from the mouth of the streams, and particularly the one in Klawock

 Whereas, the natives of Alas ka, Jh4 OugnouC their entire resi- dence in said Territory, have ob- served and become familiar with the habits and instinct of salm- on and as a result of their ob- servations and study of salmon have learned that it is natural for salmon to go into the streams a certain distance and there after return to the mouth of the streams to salt water a great many times back and forth be- fore actually spawning; that said process seems to be natures way of regulating the spawning Of salmon; that particularly when the dry sea son occurs and the water in the streams gets low, salmon naturally return to the mouth of the streams before spawning in order to get to deep watr and to protect them selves against smothering; that during the 1930 season at Kla- wock Stream, it was established that a great many salmon enter cd the stream and before spawn ing, endeavOred to return to deep water and were prevented from doing so on account of the fish weir maintained at the mouth of the stream; that as a result of being trapped in the stream, thousands and thou sands of fish actually smother ed and died before spawning; that this condition became so bad that it was necessary for the weir attendant to hire help to pitch the dead salmon from the stream over the weir back into salt water or the mouth of the stream; that these salmon were

CHICAGO SNOW UNLOADED
AT NEW ULM LAST WEEK

When Wilfhart Bros. of New Ulm
opened a carload shipment of tires
and tubes, consigned to them from
Akron, Ohio, they found little drifts
of snow covering the tires and tube
boxes. Indications are that the ship
ment arrived in Chicago during the
recent terrific snow storm, and was
delayed in the railroad yards there,
and during the time, snow sifted
through cracks in the doors and other
small openings.
However," the Brown County
Journal States, there were no gun
powder or moonshine fumes emanat-
ing from the car"

Pickerd Will Aim for K. O.
No. 8 at Harrison Tonight
Local MauIer Is Billed to Battle Michigan Heavy; Four
Other Bouts on Program

Walter Pickerd, sensational young
indianapolis heavyweight, today
was pronounced in top shape for
his scheduled ten-round scrap
with the experienced Len Darcy Of
Michigan at the FIT. Harrison
punch bowl tonight.
Pickerd, who has scored seven
knockouts in nine appearances in
indianapolis rings, completed his
training Monday and has high
hopes of marking up his eighth
k. o. victory.
Darcy is a rugged veteran of the
ring and promises to give Pickerd
the first real test of his career. The
remainder of the card follows:
Ten Rounds-WilIard Brown, Indian
apolis, VS.. Benny Duke. Grand Rapids. 1873
pounds.
apolls, VS.. Jimmy Kerr, Grand Rapids, 126
SIX Rounds-Packy Gardner, Indian

Gently knocked out Sammy Price,
and his record lists him as top
notch fighter, for he has met many
prominent boys. Len Darcy, who
meets Walter Pickerd, won the
lightweight title of Michigan last
March. He was awarded an official
belt by the Michigan boxing COM
mission. It's evident, therefore, that
Packard and Brown are in for hard
going tonight and it would be no
surpri ie to see them upset.
