VOICE IN SENATE FOR TERRITORY
 TO BE SOUGHT

Alaska Delegate A. ]. Dim- ond and Delegate McCandless Of Hawaii will introduce a bill in the coming session of Con- gress providing for represent ation of their respective terri tories in the United States sen- ate, it was announced recently by Delegate Dimond.
 The bill is planned to provide for the election of two dele gates from each territory, one to have a seat in the senate, the other in the house.
 The interests of the two terri tories are so great that one man cannot keep in touch with all matters pertaining to his district and, as a result, many smaller matters are forced to wait for action because of the press of larger issues, Delegate Dimond said in explaining the proposal.

Elimination Of
 Fish Traps Coming

Declaring that fish traps are vicious" United States Fish cries Commissioner Frank Bell, probably sounded the death knell of fish traps for taking salmon in a recent statement in which he said it is only a question of time until the traps must be eliminated entirely or regulated so they will not be so destructive.
 Bell said they are the most vicious type of gear in opera ton because they operate along shorelines and in loca- tions where they may inter- cept salmon "A hours a day.
 Bell has already ordered the closing of 100 out of 400 traps operating in Alaska waters and declared himself in favor of eliminating all of them.

Delegate Has Prohibition
 Repeal B ill R e a d y

A bill which Delegate Di- mond has prepared for intro- ductfon in Congress provides not only for repeal of the bone dry law and the Vols.ead Act in Alaska, but gives the Ter ritorial legislature full autho- rity to prescribe regulations and restrictions under which intoxicating liquors can be manufactured or sold.
 The legislature is also en- powered to delegate it's autho- rity in that respect to any board or commission which it may create and it is expressly provided that the board of liquor control created by the 1883 legislature shall retain all powers conferred upon it by the act which established it. Penalties are prescribed fer those violating the rules and regulations which may be de- cided upon by the board. The maximum penalty would be a year in jail or a fine of $500.

&, WISHING EVERYONE A MERRY CHRISTMAS <a& $
$. s. PRINCE GEORGE
 GOES ON ROCKS

The Canadian National Steamship Prince George. com- manded by Capt. D. McLain, while proceeding from Anyox to Stewart about II 80 p. m. Wednesday night, struck a rocky reef about four miles from Anyox, sustaining severe damages.
 The passengers on board were taken off in the ships boats and returned to Anyox without mishap.f Later the big vessel was released from the rocks by high tide and also returned to Anyox under her own power.
 Reports of th mishap state the damage was confined to the fore-parts of the ship; the two forward compartments being flooded. The reports failed to indicate the exact cause of the, accident. The rocks upon which the vessel struck were saitEto be charted, hence it appears that the. big liner was off Ter course, either as a result of wind or tide.
 The steamer Prince John of the same line was summoned to take off the mail and cargo, but was reported later to have returned to Prince Rupert, leaving the delivery of the car go and mail for Stewart to the Granby Company power boat, Azurite. Reports Friday morning said it was believed the Prince George would pe able to proceed to Prince Rup- ert, but would probably be ac- comp.nied by a salvage tug summoned from Vancouver.
 The power boat, Azurite, a. rived in Stewart about 5 O. clock Friday evening with a sack of mail for Premier.

ROOSEVELT ACCEPTS
 PITTMAN PLAN TO AID SILVER PRODUCERS

Accepting the Pittman plan to aid silver, as adopted at the World Economic Conference in London last summer, President Roosevelt issued Friday a pro- clamation ratifying the confer ence agreement, according to radio broadcasts.
 The executive also designated a fixed price of 6212 cents per ounce for domestic mined silver in the United States. This is in effect a mild remonetiza- ton of silver insofar as this country is concerned and will be of marked value to the nat ional silver mining industry, but will not effect the value of silver abroad.
 Under the terms of the pro- clamation, silver bullion mined in the United States will be purchased by the Treasury at the stipulated price, payment being made with new-minted silver dollars. The dollars are to be coined on 3 16 to 1 ratio with gold; sixteen silver dol lars to equal in value one ounce of gold, the reports said.
 The international agreement under which the Presidents action was taken provides that United States, Canada, Mexico, Peru and Australia shall with draw from the market a total of 35 million ounces of silver yearly for four years, to be used for monetary purposes, the United States taking "A million ounces of the total. India, China and Spain, mean while are to limit their sal $ of silver to a total of 40 million ounces.
 The agreement, to become fully effective, must be rati-, fled by the signatory govern ments. Up to the present. Mexico and the United States have been the only countries to take affirmative action.
 The plan has received con- siderable adverse criticism from experts who question it's economic possibilities, and also has been severely condemned by supporters of bi-metallism on the score that it will not place silver on a parity with gold.
 While the Presidents action will be of undoubted benefit to the silver mining industry, it appears probable that fur their action on silver remoneti- zation will be taken in the com ing Congressional session.

Increase of C. w. A.
 Force Is Allowed

The number of workers that
 may be employed on the Sal
 mon River flood protection
 project under the recent CWA
 authorization was increased
 this week from four to ten as
 result of efforts made by
 Representative J. K. Green to
 induce the CWA authorities
 to grant larger quota to meet the severe local unemployment
 conditions.
 The six additional workers
 will be given employment at
 the rate of 62 cents per hour for 30 hours per week and their employment will increase to $189.90, the total amount to be paid to local labor for each 30 hours worked. In the event that no changes are ordered in the present system of con- ducting CWA operations, the total amount that will be paid out here by the close of the designated work period, Feb ruary 18th, will be $2,388. Under the present system of staggering the work among the approximately 25 eligible workers, all of them will be able to earn a sufficient sum to maintain themselves com fortably for several months. In addition to helping the workers, the CWA payroll will also be of great benefit to the business life of the community as virtually all of the money will be spent here.
 An unfortunate situation de- veloped this week for some of the workers, when the local employment board, consisting of MT. Green, J. L. Abrams, deputy customs collector, and Chas. F. Sandford, U. s. Conn., missioner, was notified that the CWA operations are being con- ducted in accordance with the provisions of the MIRA act, forbids employment of alien residents without first papers. As a re- suit, a number of the workers were laid off pending an ap- peal by the employment board to the governor on the ground that the discharged workers, of which there were nine in all, were the neediest persons in Hyder, having been barred from all earlier relief because of their non-citizenship, and would in most instances be compelled to seek aid from the Territory.
 The effort resulted favor ably; permission being granted later to employ aliens, proNid- ed they are in actual want and
