1000 Alaska Clubwomen Forming
 Legislative Program

Alaska women through the 1000 members of women's clubs are pre- pairing to have a voice in matters coming before the legislature when it meets next January. Despite the great distances separating the clubs, through correspondence and tele- grams, the opinion of the women, arrived at through discussions, open forums and other means will be for mulated into a program for presen- tation to the legislators.
 Received too late for consideration by the Wrangell Women's Civic Club at the November meeting, but which will be presented at the De- eember meeting, was the following message sent by Ella D. Smith, of Juneau, chairman Department of Legislation for the Alaska Fedora tion of Women's Clubs:
 As this is the year for the Legis- lature to meet, and as you know it meets in January this year, it seems that we should begin right now to think about our 1899 program.
 The question of TAXES will un- doubtedly occupy a large place in the program this year as it Is going to be necessary to raise more rev enue to carry on the work in the Territory. Therefore I ask you to give thoughtful consideration to methods that might be used for that purpose. What do you think about a Sales Tax as used in the State of Washington? Does it reach all alike The spender will be the fellow who will feel it the most. Is that as il should be? Or have you some better suggestions?
 Do you think the women in Alas ka should have a Pioneers Home The men have one at Sitka, and il is very fine one too. What about aa Annex to that one for our dis. abied Alaska women? There are women in Alaska who need a place ko spend their declining years ir eazHfaRt-waz1sn Wka kaxG Rka

$35,0OO Taken Out
 By Percy Peacock

Clyde Baker and four other men whose names were not ascertained were aboard the Princess Norab Wednesday night enroute south from the Percy Peacock placer leases on Boulder creek.
 They came out by plane to Tele- graph Creek from there were flown to Juneau to take passage on the Canadian Pacific liner.
 Mining operations closed on No Yember 3rd due to stormy IS be- low zero weather. with s35.000 hay ing been recovered in the past sea- son from the Peacock ground by hand methods. Nine more men at Boulder are awaiting favorable weather for plane to come in for them but Peacock and Jack Whea- ton who have sold their Boulder creek leases to S. c. Harrington and Joe Walsh. will probably remain inside during the winter
 Baker reported that the Barring ton tractor had gotten through to Fall Creek, twelve miles from Boul- der, and the crew had returned to Dease Lake to wait until the Muddy River freezes over sufficiently to take the heavy equipment which will be used in mining operations by the new owners next summer, over fbp ice

The motorship North Star of the office of Indian Affairs arrived here at ? D. m. yesterday afternoon on the last lap of a 10000 mile jaunt through Alaskan waters. While at the Mccormack Dock she discharged 150 reindeer, 100 of which were taken to Wrangell Institute. The oth- CT 50 were disposed of to private purchasers at the dock with prices quoted at 12 cents per pound for prime and lawns. 10 cents for No l. and cents for No. 2. Proceeds from the sale go to the Eskimos Of the Arctic who raise and butcher the animals. Of the carcasses that were loaded. 800 at Kavinila and 500 at Teller. only 200 are left. Over go percent of the reindeer are sold in Alaska The Institutes allot- ment weighed just under six tons.
 Capt s. T. L. Whitlam reported an uneventful trip into the Arctic. The ship touched at Pt. Barrow on 10. They saw no ice on the northbound trip which the cap tain said was very exceptional. however, some ice Hoes were seen near the Diomede Islands. The most westerly point touched was Cape Prince of Wales Whether another trip will be made North this year. said Capt Whitlam, will not be known until their arrival in Seattle. The only exceptionally rough weather encountered was between Kodiak Island and Seward when the ship bueked a 75-mile gale about two weeks ago.
 The North Star was to have stay ed only a short while at the Me Cormaek Dock since it had 10000 gallons of oil to discharge at Wran- gell Institute, but due to an on- shore wind that made lying in Shoe maker Bay hazardous, she remained in town throughout last night and today
 Besides the passengers aboard, the ship carries 10 officers and a crew of 16 Several of the young officers hid behind boards of various shapes

neered as well as the men-Who have given the best years of their lives in helping to build up this Terri tory. Do they not also need consid eration?
 Do you think Alaska's delinquent children should be sent Outside as they are now. In the past seven years the First Division sent out 34 children and are now paying for them there. Should the Territory provide Home for them here?
 In Alaska the father of an ille- gitimate child has no responsibility to that child. The burden falls en- tireiy on the mother. Is that a fair law? What about a bill to compel the father to share in the respon- sibility of raising the child?
 What about the liquor question. Do you think it is being handled satisfactorily? The legislature ap- propriated $50,O00 to be used for law enforC ament. Have you heard much about that money being used for enforcement? Do you think we are getting our moneys worth? Are Ne getting law enforcement?
 The present laws prohibit the sale of liquor to intoxicated persons or to habitual drunkards. Yet I'll wager everyone of you can name persons who are violating that law. Is anything being done about it?
 If the present set-up is unsatis- factory what about government owned stores. The state of Washing ton controls it's liquor stores and I understand it is working out quite satisfactorily.
 I would suggest that you hold a forum in your town and invite the public to attend-then vote on the questions at hand.
 Please discuss these questions in your Club and then send in your de- cisions to be used for legislative purposes-and do so at once. Time is short and distances are great. We need the voice of every Club ] when we gn hefoEe ths IegialatHse

Record Moose Horns
 Found Kenai Penin.

The largest moose horns ever seen anywhere in the world were placed on display in Anchorage last week in the window of George Ken nedy's Hardware store after Game Warden Jack O'Connor completed the official measurements of the unique specimen.
 Tom O'Dale, who found the horns on the Kenai peninsula. carried them to the store and excited wide spread attention as he went down the street The horns extended the width of the walk and O'Dale had to hold them length-wise to avoid crowding pedestrians into the street.
 The official measurements placed the spread at 7Sa4 inches. The spread of the horns that held the worlds record for spread until o. Dale made his find is 761 inches. They were found in 1901 by Andrew Anderson on the Kenai Peninsula and the horns are now at the Field Museum of Natural History in Chi cago.

Three WPA projects designed to furnish work relief to Wrangell's unemployed through the winter months, were approved by the Gov ernor's office and the approval wired to Washington, as a result of his visit to Juneau, L. B. Chisholm, city clerk and secretary of the Wrangell Chamber of Commerce, told the chamber at its luncheon meeting Monday.
 The city council last week asked Mir. Chisholm to make the trip to Juneau for the purpose of applying for WPA funds.
 The three projects submitted by Mr. Chisholm were for two sewer projects and improvement of the school grounds. The application blanks for such projects are highly technical and require the services of an experienced man. Governor Troy gave the Wrangell man and one of the WPA officials a desk in his office where they worked for two days preparing the applications.
 In presenting his requests, MT. Chisholm pointed out to the gover- nor that Wrangell had poor fish ing season, that all trapping for the year was closed for the first time in the history of the district and that Wrangell was entirely without work projects which are provided in other communities to relieve the la bor situation.
 On behalf of the chamber, MT. Chisholm called at the office of B. Frank Heintzleman regional fores- ter, and asked that the restoration of totem poles and other historical ok5ests in wfish th9 Fsssat Service

Hospital Benefit Tea
 Nets Hundred Dollars

The Hospital Auxiliary staged a very successful benefit for the Bish- op Rowe General Hospital on Arm istice Day when 65 persons regis tered between the hours of to and attended the annual silver tea, postponed from last May.
 Perhaps the greatest surprise to the tea patrons was the fact that quantities of garden flowers, par ticularly snapdragons, had been saved from the heavy frost of pre- ceding days and were used to cen- ter the daintily arranged tea tables and wherever a vase could be placed. An informal program of piano se- lections among which were noted several wartime favorites, was play ed by Miss Dorisanne Barnes during the afternoon and many of the guests found the tea a delightful social occasion, meeting friends and lingering for the entire program.
 While the attendance did not come up to the record for previous years, the financial results were de cidedly gratifying and have been ex- ceeded on only two previous occa- sions Several generous checks from business firms and individuals, and one from the American Legion Aux Hilary were found among the silver offerings bringing the total to date to $103.35.
 The Elks donated the use of theiI hall and all supplies were given by the societies which form the Hospital Auxiliary: Catholic Altar Society Legion Auxiliary, Assembly of God Eastern Star. Civic Club, Episcopa, Guild, Presbyterian Aid Society, Sal. vation Army and Seventh Day Ad ventists.
 Those who assisted in the kitch- en, serving and greeting guests in. cluded Mrs. Bjorge, Mrs. Anderson Mrs. Carruthers, Mrs. L. B. Chis holm, Mrs. Garry, Mrs. Geo. Green Mrs. B. Y. Grant Mrs. J. c. John son, Mrs. Nj. o. Johnson, Miss Mitch ell and Miss Dalbec.

in the Twin Cities. No one is ever
left out of their diggings. It's all
right to dig, but where the sad
part comes in is that they perhaps
don't know that some ditch diggers
fall into their own bitches. Really,
it just can't be done continually.

struct the opportunity for a vote,
a twO-thirds membership, in this
case "a of the 90 senator's, may or
der the clOture. This has the effect
of the previous question in that it
limits the time of debate and thus
forces a vote on the measure be-
fore it. A filibuster not only pre-
vents a vote on the pending meas
ure but stops consideration of other
legislation no matter how i'm
pOrtant it may be.
Coming to a consideration of the
anti-lynch bill the senate minority
said in effect, 1--WE don't intend to
let this bill come to vote. We will
talk from now to the end of the
year to prevent it." The minority
does not claim that it has not had
a full opportunity to give all the
arguments it has. 1t frankly de-
clares that in spite of everything
it is determined to have it's way.
But the majority is not neces-
sarily bound to permit this. If it
believes that the minority has given
all that is pertinent to a possible
change of conviction of its men,
bers, it may most justly order a
clOture to force a vote. If, as in this
case, legislation of greatest i'm
pOrtance to the entire country was
awaiting action the majority may
reach it in one of two ways: it can
stop the filibuster, force a vote on
the pending measure or it can do
as our senators, including our Lun-
deem, did, say in effect: all right,
have your way. Well let the anti
lynching bill alone. Stop talking
and let US get to the important
measures waiting our attention. 1t
is apparent your filibuster is d.
rected against this legislation rath-
er than the anti-lynch bill. We can
consider that some other time;
though we know that when we do
you will adopt the same tactics as
you have done time and again in
the past and as you promise to do
in the future time without end.
1t does not follow that a vote
against the cloture necessarily in
dicates enmity toward the pending
measure. Credit Mr.. Lundeen with
