i EARNING MONEY
AT CROW BAITING
! A party in town wants live, unin
| jured crows. Any bright boy with
1 a bit of patience and some energy
, can earn a few dollars and aid a
| worthy purpose by capturing some of
1 these birds. It is a simple manner
. to catch them, once the idea is made
' plain. First, choose a spit where
' crows congregate, near underbrush
> or some other place of ambush. Get
! a box or crate large enough for the
[ purpose. Set this box with one edge
> leaning on a stick a few inches from
, the ground. Tie a string to the stick
J and lead the string to the ambush.
? After making all of these prepara
, tions scatter food around the place.
In a day or so the birds, usually sus
' picious will become accustmoed to the
' appearance of things at the feeding
ground and walk into the trap. All
that is then necessary is to pull the
string. Care should be taken in re
moving from the trap not to allow
an escape and to preserve from injury.

A MEMBER-ELECT
FROM ARCTIC CIRCLE
Valdez, Feb. 14. -Charles Kennedy,
the representative ol' the Candle dis
trict, the most northerly elected rep
resentative on the American conti
nent arrived in Valdez last night, com
pleting the overland section of a 2,000
mile trip to the capital of the terri
tory.
Representative Kennedy left his
home in Candle, which is within 30
miles of the Arctic Circle, on January
Oth, crossing the Seward peninsula to
Raid Head, on Norton bay, at which
place he joined the other representa
tives of the Second Division, who
had left Nome two days before he
left Candle.
.Mr. Kennedy is a Republican, as
are also the other three representa
tives of the Second Division, but, he
says, that this is the time to forget
party lines and remember that we are
all Alaskans and must work together
for the good of the territory, which
has been held back by bad laws, and
the lack of progressiveness, which will
tend to open up the resources of the
territory
Representative Kennedy is a miner
and operator on Candle creek and has
been a resident of Alaska since 1897.
The dog team which he used on the
trip will be taken to Juneau and at
the opening of navigation will be sent
to Nome on one of the first boats. The
distance from Candle to Valdez is
1.300 miles.
The other members of the Nome
delegation are due in Valdez now.
Thomas Gaffney, Conrad Freoding and
Frank Aldridge were at Copper Cen
ter last night. They are coming on
a dog express. Dan Sutherland and
Red McConnell are coming in a cut
ter and Mayor Driscoll, Henry Roden
and Representative Collins are on the
stage.

quest the appointment of Mr. Fergu
son as as soon as President-elect Wil
son takes office.
F. R. Brennemen, of Katalla, a dep
uty marshal under Marshal Sullivan,
will be a candidate and claims the
support of Vice-president Marshal.
Mr. Brennemen has been a deputy
marshal under the present administra
tion for four years.
Al. Dowling, of Valdez, also claims
considerable backing both locally and
from his former home in Boston.
Ralph E. Oldham, of Sunrise, is al
so a candidate, but the extent of his

land the plum, as he has the support
the position, having the support of

tion Company, and he is at present
