Relate Yelled Threats
They told me my political career
depended solely on my vote for
presiding judge. If I voted for
Shuler's candidate, they said, l
would be safe from any radio at
tacks in the future"
"A few hours before the election, -
Judge Bullock said. Il received a
telephone call from a person very
close to Shuler. This person in
formed me that my political future
was at stake, and depended entire
ly upon whether l voted for the
Shuler candidate for presiding
judge. l was told that if l voted
right I would be very glad OF it
within a short time
Information has been given me
that drastic efforts were made to in
fluence the vote of several judges,
Judge Mcconnell said IF this is
true. it should be made public i'm
mediately. for the people are en-
titled to know of any effort by any
outside force whatsoever to control
their courts. No outside influence
was brought upon me and any ef-
fort to do so would have been :
waste of time"
Judge Bush was another who
said he was informed of the assert

NO CHANGE OF DUCK SEASON

Two weeks ago, Delegate Wick 'ersham again took up with the President the matter of chang ing the season for shooting wa Y ter fowl from September to Oc- tober in Alaska. President Hoov- CT referred the question to Se- Cretary of Agriculture and on An gust 18th a letter from that of ficial was received by the Dele gate, in which the request was denied. Among other things the Secretary said: Tn prescribing the month of September for the hunting of waterfowl in Alaska, we were convinced that this pe- riod would give the sportsmen throughout the Territory shoot ing opportunities comparable with those in the Northwestern States. We regret, therefore that we cannot accede to the re- quests of your constituents for 3
 later open season. The Depart
 ment does not contemplate mak- ing further changes in the sea sons this year."

ALASKA GAME REGULATIONS

Frequent complaints have been received by Delegate Wicker sham that the present game re- gulations of the Alaska Game Commission are working a hard ship on many Alaskans, includ- ing trappers, traders and pros rectors. A recent petition has been received from the Fourth Division, with 326 signatures of residents from Tacotna, McCrath Beetles, Alatna, Panama, KOk rines Flat, Shageluk, Healy, Fork, Anchorage, Hurricane, Rampant Puny, Tolovana and few scat-
 te'lng locations, praying for tht |repeal of the present law and the enactment of Congressional legislation that would protect the game and fur-bearing anim- als and which would meet with |the appreciation of the people ol the Territory. A letter received in connection with the petition
 complains that the most "obnox-
 ious" part of the present regula-
 tions is the personal sealing
 clause, as in many cases the ex-
 pense of sealing costs more than the value of the catch. The De- legate has taken these matters up with the various Departments and Committees interested and hopes to secure satisfactory changes in the present laws and regulations.

DIR. BORLAND RETURNS

Dr. W. A. Borland, known i'll Juneau and other parts of Alas ka as mighty hunter of no fear Of the brown bear, as an angler for the largest piscatorial speci- mems of the north Pacific, as a fearless air passenger, and as a careful driver of a large auto, spent ten days in Washington, limping about because of re- cent accident in the north while driving his dog team. But early one evening he met a stinging defeat while attempting to cross Pennsylvania Avenue. A care less driver of one of the renown- cd little bugs ran him down, dragged him along a few feet, left him bruisedly stunned, and with a merry ha, ha, speeded away. The Doctor was picked up by taxi driver and taken to his hotel, satisfied that the big city had no regard for a village physician. After consultation with Commissioner of Indian Af- fairs Charles J. Rhodes and pr. M. c. Guthrie, Chief of the Me- dical Division, Dr. Borland in duced them to order him to re- turn to his official duties at Ka- nakanak, where he is physician in charge at the hospital, and to which place he is now gratefully speeding.

MEET OF PACIFIC INTERNAT'I
 HIGHWAY COMMISSION

At the Interior Department it is stated that Ernest Walker Sawyer will attend a meeting at Victoria on October 10, of the Canadian and American repre- eentatives of the Pacific High way Commission. At that time reports of engineering parties will be submitted and studied, with the idea of deciding on a definite route for the new pro. iect which will connect the States with Fairbanks, by way of Dawson, Yukon Territory. At present the northern end of the British Columbia highways sys- tenn is at Hazelton. From there 10 Fairbanks, a road 1000 miles lCng will be built at an esti- mated cost of $1O,O0O,OO0. Of the unfinished part, 500 miles are in British Columbia, 300 in Yukon Territory and 200 in Alaska. At Fairbanks, the new road will connect up with 2,OOO miles Of good roads already in Alaska. As a representative of the Interior Department, MT. Sawyer is giv- ing particular study to the prob
 lem of getting rid of the annual deficits of the government-own- ed railroad in Alaska, thru the building up of more traffic by the development of the natural resources of the Territory. At q meeting of the Pacific Foreign Trade Council Convention, helc at Oakland on September 17th he delivered a very Illuminating and interesting address on the untold mineral resources of Alas. ka and the exceptional charm o. it's scenic attractions.

seeking additional protection for the salmon of Resurrection Bay waters, and after investigation
 Commissioner of Fisheries Henry |O'Malley has promised some re- lief. When the new regulations are effective on January 1St next, it is expected that the pre- sent regulation prohibiting com mercial fishir0 for salmon at all times within 1000 yards of the mouths of Bear Creek and Re-
 surrection River, and within 1700 yards of the mouths of these streams in the period from June Y to August g, will be modified to read substantially as follows: Monumental fishing for salmon is prohibited at all times in all I waters north Of true east ana
 west line crossing the head of Resurrection Bay from the mouth
 of Lowell Creek to the opposite
 shore at 60 degrees 6 minutes g
 seconds north latitude" Due to
 the depths of water, this pro-
 posed new regulation, MT. O'Mal-
 ley states, would practically pre-
 vent the use of anchored gillnets
 and would compell the commer- ciaI fishermen to drift their nets, thus giving the salmon a better
 opportunity to enter the spawn ing streams.
