 A Canadian View
 In discussing the Supren 2 Court decision, a Canadian at corney has said: "The judgment of MT. Justice Lamont reads Ike a piece of special pleading, in which he has accepted the ev- idence of the Crown witnesses and ignored the evidence of th" men on the seized vessels. Alb both on the law and on tn, facts the only judge who rend- cred a judgment has accepted thefindings of the judge in ad- so that for the purposes for which the appeal was take l the appeal has been useless, ant you have no further light as to the law on the question of tn, of the treaty.
 "You will note that the court has not dealt with the question of the continuance of the A1r- erican rights on the Pacifl1 Coast as they existed prior to- 1918.
 The matter really should go U the Privy Council, where al question of such imr ortance as the application of an imperia, Treaty and the extinguishmens of ancient rights of a friendly nation would receive considera- tion from a court which is con- stantly giving consideration tn questions of international law"

Last Tuesday afternoon tha first public ceremony was held on the magnificent new Mem orial bridge, in commemorating the death of one of AlaSka's old est pioneers, Capt. Conrad Siem, who died in Washington on May 30. The deceased had made a written request that his remains be cremated and from the new bridge thrown to the waters of the Pote mac river. His wishes were carried ont and in the pI essence of a few Alaskans and ether personal friends the Dele gate from Alaska, Judge Wick c.sham paid a fitting tribute 10 the sturdy character and un
 selfish work of the man who had done much for his adopted land in it's early days. Early in life Capt. Siem, emigrated fro'1 Germany and became a natur- alized American citizen in San Francisco. Tn the early part of
 1890 he located as the manag" ing owner of trading post at
 Point Barrow, the extreme Inortherly part of Alaska, and first conceived the idea of ex- porting reindeer from Siberia, which was later carried out by
 Rev. Sheldon Jackson, general agent of the Bureau of EducA- tion. Capt. Siem was a promir,' ent character during the early days of the Nome development and lived in various sections of
 the territory until about fifteeG years ago, when he came to
 Washington and died here at the age of II years. He leaves
 a nephew in this country.

 A party of mighty, and well satisfied hunters, returned to Washington last week after q very successful outing cn Kodiak Island, under the guidance of the Kodiak Guides Association of which they speak in high praise. The party hunted in the interior of the Island s,m May l to the 16th, and secured six fine Kodiak grizzlies. Tlc largest was killed by Assistant General Seth w. Richardson, and measured 10 1-2 feet.

They are five mcnths old and weigh about 12 pounds each. Samuel Stern, of the Elks Ma tional Executive committee, also killed two of the big bear, and thinks that the hunters of the east who have not taken ad-. vantage of the fine hunting in Alaska are just too unfortunate iL1 anything
