Twelve Hours Ashore
 Too Long For Sailors

Twelve hours ashore proved far too long for three members of the Northwestern crew while the steam CT was Tn port here yesterday They had looked upon the wine when it was red for so long that the truth of the scripture was made manifest in that it "smiteth like an adder and stingeth like a serpent. as they are probably reflecting today in their jail cells.
 Local officers arrested them for drunk and disorderly conduct short ly before the Northwestern sailed at 11:30 D. m. G. Hoffman, the big man of the trio, was locked up first. When the officers opened the door upon their return witE Bud BercoC and John Mahoney, Hoffman made a dash for liberty and c. W Bradley of the city police, emerged from the fray with a front tooth gone, while James Lovett, U. s. iailer. has one eye in total eclipse.
 The turmoil did not cease when the men were finally locked in. Radiators were torn off the wall, which loosed the water from all up stairs tank flooding the cell room, electric lights were torn out by the roots and after the room was iL complete wreck the trio for half hour Justify sang "Wahoo," which needs to be heard to be appreciated
 At a hearing before U. s. Com missioner Richard Suratt this after noon Bearcott was fined $75. Ma honey drew three months in jail, while Hoffman was sentenced to serve four months in the federal jail at Juneau and fined $10O.
 The young men today are very much subdued. They are neither smashing anything or anybody nor are they giving any musical con- certs.

KETCHIKAN'S BIG PROBLEM
 IS TEMPERANCE SAYS MAYOR

Ambitions for Ketchikan were told by several speakers at a meet ing of the Good Citizenship league at Ketchikan recently. Mayor J. A. Talbot. the first speaker, listed the following as his ambitions: to have the best lighted city in Alaska and the cleanest both morally and physically; gardens in every place; the best schools in the Territory and establishment of a junior col lege: extension of the city's parks; permanent fair building; establish ment of a museum. The biggest problem facing the city, he said was that of temperance.
 Hobart R. Kelly, newly-elected superintendent of schools, said that his ambitions for the city in con nection with the schools is to make its needs felt by every person. There is a need for expansion, he declared, and the time is soon com ing when a new building must be provided At present t h high school s handicapped by inadequate equipment and insufficient space. The grade school, although facing less of a problem, is over-crowded
 More health education and bet ter training in citizenship were also insluded in his proposals. Inn mediate steps toward these ends were contemplater, he aid with a full-time physical training in- structor on the program for next year and definite plans for more individual attention to pupils prob lems being formulated.
 A clean, respectable community was said by Arthur Chase, who presided at the meeting, to be his ambition for Ketchikan. He detailed certain faults, as he sees them, to indicate his ideas of possible inn provement. Among them were sale of liquor. no fire escapes in public buildings, housing the best fire de- partment in Alaska in a fire trap, disregard of stop signs at inter- sections. violation of the 1 o'clock closing ordinance and neglect of the curfew ordinance.
 A development of civic pride and a sense of individual responsibility for law enforcement were give by the Rev. Fred R. Isacksen as the greatest need of the city. It is inn possible, he said, to have suf- ficiently large number of police to enforce laws if the people dc not want them enforced.

Petersburg Teachers
 Get New Salary Rating

The Petersburg School Board has adopted a single salary schedule for the teachers for next year, ac- cording to the Petersburg Press The schedule has been worked out by Superintendent Beck and is de signed to stimulate the teachers to take additional courses during the summer Advances in salary depend on the amount or training and experience with a maximum set at $1950 Mr. Beck points out that Petersburg is about in the middle of the salary schedule and will very likely remain there because # the normal turnover in teaching personnel. The new schedule lowers ,he minimum for new teachers. the
 hree-year Normal school graduate without experience getting $500 instead of $1350.
 As a single salary schedule the plan does not differentiate between the compensation for the grade school and high school teachers.
 The aggregate increase in sal aries for next year is somewhat higher than it would have been under the old system, but inasmuch as the Territory contributes 75 per cent, the increased cost to the town is about $26O. The towns share of next years budget, amounting to $87O0, was approved by the City Council two weeks ago. It amounts to d $200 increase over the towns share last year.

 Disbarment of William l.. Paul, Juneau attorney, from practicing law in the Territory of Alaska is sought in an information filed in Federal District court in Juneau on May 23. by George w. Folta, As sistant U. S. District Attorney charging Paul with wilful deceit and gross misconduct in his pro- fessional capacity
 Last October 29 Paul was fined $1OO and suspended from practic- ing for three months in the First Division as the result of a conyersa- ton he had with w. s. Pullen, who was then serving on the Grand Jury. The Court held at that time that Paul was attempting to in fluence the deliberations of the juror in connection with a case in which the attorney was interested.
 Five specific counts are placed against Paul who is charged in the information with having been on divers occasions guilty of wilful deceit and gross misconduct in his professional capacity, greatly af- fecting his 2Iaracter as an attorney of this court and rendering him un- fit and unworthy to represent the public in his professional capacity OF to take any part as an attorney in any judicial proceedings"
 Oil Company Deal
 On the first count, it is charged that Paul in December of 1880, as attorney for the Union Oil Company of California, instituted suit in Wraugell Justice Court against Gordon Mcdonald in the course of which property belonging to Me- Donald was attached and that Geo. Collins was employed as a watch man at the request of Paul. The oil company recovered on its judg ment $982.0J from Mcdonald and Paul submitted his bill for his fee and expenses to the company and received 8 third of the amount re- covered. Collins then insisted OI payment of $231 for wages earn ed as Watchman, the complaint sets forth, and Paul advised the company tha it was not Fespons- ible for the watchman's pay and that it should not pay the claim. Later, in March of 1884, the attor- ney is alleged to have brought suit against the company in behalf of Collins asking $231. the amount of wages claimed by the Watchman The suit was settled out of court, the information recites, for $175, and that the said Paul received said S175 foF Collins but instead of remitting sad amount or any pat thereof to said Collins, kept and converted the entire amount to his own use and has ever refused, neg lected and failed to pay any part thereof to tLe said Collins"
