Judge Weir Studies Briefs
on Plea for RetriaI of
Jurisdiction Case.

Briefs requesting new trial on
one of the most important cases in
which the city coming board ever
has been involved, were being
studied today by Superior Judge
Clarence E. Weir.
Ruling of Judge Weir has aroused
a neighborhood fight over erection
of a filling station at the southwest
corner Of Delaware street and Fall
Greek boulevard.
Albert Stump, attorney for the
coming board, declared at hear
ing on motion for a new trial Tues
day that the ruling had tied hands
Of that board"
Jurisdiction Is Basis
Jurisdiction of the coming and
park boards in granting building
permits, is basis of the ruling.
Judge Weir recently held that when
Jurisdiction of the two boards con-
ficts, the zoning board jurisdiction
prevails.
He held the coming board should
issue q permit to Mrs. Mary Stan
ford allowing her to erect a filling
station.
Sumner A. Clancy, attorney for
property owners, opposing the erec-
ton; Stump and Nathan Swain,
park board attorneys, demanded the
new trial.
Suit Now Pending
A suit to mandate the coming
board to issue the permit in accord
ance with Judge Weir's ruling now
is pending in superior court one.
Mrs. Stanford's attorneys argued
her property was not suitable for
erecting of a dwelling house or
apartment building, as set out and
requested in the park board ordi-
nance.
Stump argued Judge Weir had no
right ito go into the unreasonable
ness Of the coming act"
Clancy demanded that his clients,
who had filed an intervening petit
ton opposing the permit to Mrs.
Stanford be made parties in the
case. Judge Weir told them he
would rule on the new trial motion
after studying the briefs.

SENATOR HALE RAGGED FIVE BEAR: SAYS |S NOT
 BIG GAME HUNTER

Though he claims he is not big game hunter, Senator Hale of Maine bagged five Alaska brown bears on the hunt just completed on Kodiak Island, in the Karluk Lake area, which was participated in also by Assistant Attorney Gen. eral Seth w. Richardson and Sam uel Stern, Republican National Executive Committeeman, who each brought down two large and beautiful specimens of the big and ferocious beasts.
 We suppose they also, do not claim to be big game hunters? In any case the three are hereby unanimously elected to the prom inent Alaskan Order of Good Eel lows.
 Senator Hale discovered that one of beasts he shot had three cubs, so with the assistance of Charles Madsen, field manager of the Kodiak Guides Association under which auspices the party entered the field, the cubs were rounded up and the Senator has them with him here, taking them to the Washington, D. c. Zoo.
 Yesterday afternoon the three gentlemen were luncheon guests of the Chamber of Commerce. They are remaining in the city until Friday going South on the SS Alaska. In the meantime, they can be seen daily on the Seward golf links swapping 'em far, wide and handsome.

HE'S TELLING FEM AND HOW!

Due to the splendid publicity efforts of Ernest Wal ker Sawyer assistant to Secretary Wilbur of the Inter- for Department, portions of the East are getting their ideas of Alaska elsewhere than from the movie screen, which invariably depicts the Territory waste of and ice populated entirely by dog teams "mountes" and luscious haf-breed gals who turn out to be white in reel nine
 Sawyer is telling them about Alaska strawberries, our grains about farms and forests, swim ming and bathing beauties-you bet we got 'en-cat- tie raising, fur farms etc., down the line, emitting the hackneyed snow and glacier which is in Alas ka than in the East
 Such facts forecast at no remote date-a great Alaska-a mighty state of and splendid partner in the American Union-a new Northwest.
