NOTED ALASKAN
 AT PORT ANGELES

The Port Angeles News of recent date contained the following in its personal items:
 NOTED ALASKAN HERE-Capt Earle c. Hunter, of the Federal Fisheries boat Brant, in Port An- geles harbor yesterday, is one of the best known of Alaskan men, MT. Hunter went to the Territory in early days and was at one time Postmaster of Juneau, and is known to thousands of people in the North. He revisits the North each year with the boat that he com mands and knows every bit of the waters of Southeast Alaska. While here he visited with Jack Henson of the Evening News, also a former Alaskan and acquaintance of thirty years standing"
 In the same edition of the same paper was the following in its news columns:
 Coming in for supplies, the Brant, 100-foot patrol and admin istrative boat of the United States Bureau of Fisheries, now engaged in annual sea patrol duties out of Neah Bay, called in Port An geles Friday.
 "The Brant is under command of Capt. Earle Hunter, who has covered a vast extent of Pacific Coast waters, principally in Alaska and on the North Pacific and Sound in the past 30 years. For about two months in the spring time she is assigned to the seal patrol with headquarters at Neah Bay. In the summer and autumn, however, she carries on administra- tive work for the Bureau of Fish cries in Northern waters.
 Tt is the vessels duty during the summer months to transport Henry O'Malley Federal Fisheries Commissioner, about Alaskan wat CTS as far as the Pribilof Islands. Later in the year she will carry Dennis Vim the bureaus agent for Alaska, on an inspection tour of the Southeast portion of that Territory.
 Tn 1926, Capt Hunter took the Brant as far south as the Mexican coast with Herbert Hoover, at that time Secretary of Commerce, as the chief passenger.
 "The fisheries boat is making regular trips to Port Angeles about every ten days during her seal pa- trol service.'

COURT ISSUES IMANDAMUS WRIT | N POWER CASE
ISkagway Company Order.
 ed by Harding to Re- store Certain Service

Writs of mandainus were issued today by Judge Justin w. Harding in the Federal district court or dering the Home Power Company of Skagway to immediately resume service to Louis Rapuzzi and George Braich, or to appear in court on May B and show cause, if any, why they should not be restored.
 The company recently cut off it's electric service to Rapuzzi and Braich because of a radio aerial, which they owned, crossing over the conIpany's service wires. They filed suits in the district court asking for the writs to compel service.
 These actions are the aftermath of suit recently tried before Judge Harding brought by the City of Skagway to prevent the power company from cutting off electric service to the municipal ity itself and to residents of the community who owned radio re- ceivers or resided in districts where such receivers were owned and op- erated. The case was decided by Judge Harding last Monday. He granted a permanent restraining order against the Home Power Company to stop it from cutting off current of three residents of Skagway whom evidence showed had been threatened with de- privation of service.
 The decision held that the city did have the right to maintain the action and that 1t was the proper party plaintiff. Tn this connection Judge Harding said: T still feel at this time I should permit the suit by the city and should not dismiss it on the ground it is not the proper party in interest"
 In addition to the company be- ing made the defendant in the mandamus suits filed by Rapuzzi and Braich, its president. Charles Nye, has been bound over to the Federal grand jury for alleged discrimination against the same two patrons.

 The experiments showed that sweet clover needs sweet soil, that alfalfa tflrives best in soil with medium to high" amounts of phosphorus and tha. red clover can stand more acidHty than either sweet clover or alfalfa.
