Although this Fal was somewhat in the nature of at experiment, yet from the large agri cultural exhibit made hy the farm ers of South Alaska and the surpris ingly high grade of vegetables and grains shown, it was clear to the minds of those interested In the in dustries of ftilW section of Alaska that good could be realized through annually 1.«(| 'i-pgi (together the pro ducts of tU- m for combat: "on and exhibition. \ Is thought ripened into the incorpora, on of the Southeastern Alaska Fair Association, a non-profit sharing corpor„ n, which took over tbe good work -tarled by tic Cham ber of Coran. ■ nd hthl a Fair last September or uing over three days, which, it ir amazed evt., one of the several thousand peoph who attended.

M. Reed in the U. S. District i Court this morning when the in-; ; junction suit instituted by E. Valen . tine was taken up. Virtually the i entire morning session was consum ! ed in the arguments at the end of which Judge Reed announced he would take the case under consld ieraticn before rendering a decision. Judge James Wickersham, who : t poke for the plaintiff, declared that j the City Council acted entirely without authority. He argued that no power to make such appropria tion existed either under the author ity expressly bestowed on the Coun jcil or under the general welfare ■ clause. S. Hellenthal, appearing for the 1 defendants, argued that the City was within its rights in \he em ■ ployment of a special representative | to appear before Congressional com mutes on its behalf in matters af I footing the public welfare within the city. The main reason for the employment, of such a representa tive, he said, was to assist Delegate' Sutherland in getting through Con-! gress a bill authorizing a local bond i issue for constructing permanent! I streets. It was true, ho admitted, | ! tlint the special delegate would take; ! up other matters, but that the city: | was officially interested only in the, | bond issue. in rmjui iiii, uukc vv lcnrinuum ai - I Sued that it was virtually impossible1 j to segregate the various projects, j j pome of which, he claimed, was not; ! confined to the benefit of the local; i public. The question of the legality of; ! “lobbying” raised by Judge Wieker-| sham. it was intimated by the Court,: ; was not sufficient to affect the mat-j | ter. Judge Heed declared It was a] j "miner” element. Wickersham hadj I declared that the employment of; lobbyists was contrary to good pub-, 11c policy, while R. E. Robertson, eelected by the City Council to go! to Washington, cited cases in sup-j port of his contention that the era-, ployment of special counsel to ap-! pear for specific purposes before leg-j islativc bodies is well recognized and proper practice. —— Furniture moved and stored' ' Heavy banting done.
