WHERE \VE ARE AT
United States District Attorney
Rodey of Nome, recently gave his
opinion thusly on some of the laws
passed by the Territorial legislature
says the Valdez Commoner.
"The organic act by which Alaska
was given its legislature provides
that no one holding a commission
as office holder from the United
States in Alaska should hold any of
fice, under the territory, yet the
legislature has passed several laws
imposing additional duties on clerks
of courts, commissioners and others,
and the question arises is such a
law valid or should the territory
create officials for Itself.
"The organic act also restricts the
local legislature from meddling with
certain national license laws, etc.,
now in foroe In .Alaska and among
them the laws providing for taxes
on business and trade, but it also
states that this proviso shall ,not
operate to prevent the legislature
from imposing other and additional
taxes or licenses. The legislature
went on and imposed many new
taxes and additional taxes and somo
times on the same things on which
congress had already imposed taxes
without saying whether they are
separate or include the congression
al ones, and provides that the clerks
of the court shall collect them as
they collect other licenses.
"All of this has resulted in grave
doubt as to the validity of some of
the local laws and is puzzling not
only to the local district attorneys
but the department of justice itself
and the latter will have to advise
the customs officials about the ton
nage tax and other matters." f
There was only one thing that the
legislature very soon decided they
could not molest. That was the big
corporation fish traps. They were
held sacred.

WAR SECRETARY SAYS
HE WAS MISQUOTED
Washington, Oct. 22—Secretary
of War Garrison has retracted the
criticism which he is alleged to
have made at the banquet given to
him by the officers of the army now
in tWashington. The press reports
stated that the Secretary of War ha
said that the enlisted men were to
blame for the altitude of the public
towards them; that they misbehaved
in public places; that most of the
men who enlisted were of the low
er type, were lazy and joined the
army because they were unable to
make a living iu the battle of life.
The secretary says he was mis
quoted and that what he did say
was misinterpreted. It is believed
that the incident will now be droo
ped from further discussion.
