FISH LEGISLATION
HAS RIGHT-OF-WAY
"I shall give the fisheries bill which
I have Introduced my first attention
, when 1 return to Washington" said
| Delegate James Wlckersham last ev
j ening. "because I deem it is the moet
| important measure for Alaska Just
now."
The bill, ho said, was for the pro
tection of the fish resources of the
Territory and provided regulations
governing the Industry, but did not,
he said, provide for the establishment
of government salmon hatchories. He
said that the government hatcheries
were handled through the bureau of
fisheries and it was not necessary to
provide for therit in the bill.
Delegate Wlckersham says that
there are two bills pending for the
creation of the Alaska Development
board, one of which was prepared by
Secretary of the Interior Franklin K.
Lane and introduced by Senator Cham
berlain, of Oregon, and the other pre
pared and introduced by himself. His
own bill he said was prepared very
carefully and that ho had gone consid
erably Into the subject working out
a great deal of the necessary detail on
the measure in order that it should
be a practical working law. Both
bills he said had the approval of Sec
retary Lane but said the Delegate, "I
don't think Chairman Houston, of tho
House Committee of Territories wants
the bill to pass at this time."
Secretary Lane, the Delegate says,
has approved his bill invalidating the
mining law passed at the first session
of the Territorial Legislature and that
the bill had been favorably reported j
from the committee, but now that tho
next session of tho Legislature was
so near, that he would not push the
matter for the reason that the Legisla
ture can correct all that is wrong
with the law.
- - Villi
, Speaking of things nearer home,
Delegate Wlckersham said that he had
Introduced a bill appropriating an ad
ditional $450,000 for the Capitol build
ing at Juneau, which, added to the
former appropriation,, would amount
to $650,000, but that thero would be
nc chance of getting this bill passed |
new. because there would be no pub-!
lie building bills passed before the De- j
cember session, when such bills would j
all be passed at the same time.
The Gastineau channel bridge will1
be built by the government. Delegate
Wlckersham says. If anybody wants
it built. It will be an easy matter to
get an appropriation for the building
of the bridge if the people ask for it,
he said. "I Introduced a bill provid
ing for the sale of tide lands here In
Juneau, the funds accruing from such
sale to be devoted to the building of
the bridge, tyit I discovered that there
was a decided opposition to this meas
ure and did not urge action on It." I
The Judge will speak at Treadwell
this evening and leave for Sitka on
dress the people here Monday night.
A large part of yesterday was spent
on Douglas Island, and he will speak
at Douglas Saturday night.

Word from up the lino indicates
that the campaign of Charles E. Bun
nell. the Democratic nominee for Del
egate to Congress is meeting with an
unexpected measure of success. At
Chitina, McCarthy and Kennecott his
talks on the issues of the campaign
were well received and have been tho
means of bringing to his support a
large number of the voters of that
section. This success is but a con
tinaution of tho favorable impression
which has followed his trip through
Southeastern Alaska and at Valdez
and Seward, and from day to day the
chances of his election next November
grow brighter and brighter. A young
man, a hard worker, of exceptional
mental attainments. Mr. Bunnel is
eminently fitted to lead the Democrat
ic party to victory. Independent of
all control except the principles of
the party, bound by tho platform on
which he stands and to which ho has
pledged his firm adherence, to use
his every endeavor to promote the
welfare of the territory, thoroughly in
accord with tho administration which
hns pledged Itself to develop tho
North and by acts, not words, has al
ready made wonderful progress In
that direction, Mr. Bunnell is justi
fied In asking the men and women of
this country for their support, and
he will receive It.

for Agricultural purposes.

of which have been taken by enter
prising business houses who are us
ing the allotod space for advertising
purposes, others aro in charge of Elks
who are taking tho money like road
agonts.
Immediately on approaching tho
main entrance one Is met by gentle
manly Mr. Lucas, of the B. M. Beh
rends bank, who takes the money like
an experienced circus ticket seller. A
sharp turn to the left brings one faco
to face with Mr. Leafgreen, manager
of the clothing department In Gold
stein's who Is now selling popcorn and
paper napkins for 25 cents apiece If
he can got It. A furtive glance to the
left and Leon Frieman and Guy Mc
