SEATTLE, Oct. ;t0. William T.!1
Lopp, former chief of the Alaska ili-'
vision of the Bureau of Education, 1
and builder of the reindeer industry in
Alaska, returned today from u trip of!
fifteen months in the Arctic region of
Canada, whither he went to make snr-1
vey for the Hudson’s Hay Company of
the northern half of Ratlin Land for
the purpose of determining the feasi
bility of the country as u pasture for
reindeer. Lapp's report is to the ef
fect that this uren of S'O.OOO squure
miles is worthless as a range for deer.
He reports the land rocky, with insuf
ficient soil to produce enough muss to
sustain the animals.

Dt) 1 NCR OF ALASK A
CAME COMMISSION
• i
Juneau.—A bonfire of furs was a :
novelty recently adopted by employes
«»f the Alaska Game Commission at !
Juneau. The burned furs consisted of |
255 muskrat skins and 1 mink skin,'
which had been seized and forfeited in |
the course of law enforcement work
in the Territory. The skins were so
unprime as to he worthless and en- I
tirely unfit to be placed on the market. ,
Chairman Gardner, of the Game1,
Commission, and Mr. Walker, exacu- ! >■
tive officer of the Commission, esti- ,
mate that these skins would have
been worth about $400 according to 1
the present market prices if they Ivad *
*11 been in prime condition. They ^
stated that it is a serious economic
loss to the community for trappers to ! ,
take such worthless skins when they
would be valuable if the animals were
Allowed to live a month or two longer.
These skins were only a portion of
those which had been obtained in law .
enforcement work. All skins which ,
are in a satisfactory condition to ,
place on the market are being adver- j
tised to be sold at public auction.
There were additional skins which
had no commercial value as fur-s but i
which were of scientific value. These i
vere sent to the Bureau of Biological
?urvey for their study collections.

Mr. Walker, of the Biological Sur
'r.v, states thal Dobbs and Mr. Von
jcngerke, of New York, were guests
if J. H. Cant), of Lisianski, nnd while
dr. Von Lengerke obtained his license
n the proper manner Dobbs evaded
■btaining one, and that the trophy
vhich Dobbs killed hud been smug
gled out of the Territory, lie also
dates that when it became known
hat the wild life protective officers
,vere working on the case Mr. Len
'erk< endeavored to straighten up the
natter hy taking out a license fot
hilibs. This method of settlement
vns refused, and when all available
nformation was at hand the case was
lied by information in the District
’ourt.

uniting license fee and was fined $50
ind costs.

aken a commanding hand in bringing
ibout tnrr American scale of wages,

emiss to describe advertising as the
ife of trade and as the foundation for

MV NORTHERN ROKE.
- ,|
Where myriads of stars bespangle thi
sky
And the sun’s last rays on. the horizon
lie,
Where the hoar front gleams and the
wild wind blows,
There blooms a wonderful, beautiful
Rose.
Long after the birds to the South!
have tits!
And the summer flowers lie .withered '
and dead.
Blooms still so fair ’mong.tin* winter
snows
My Rose of the North, my beautiful
Rose.
j
Darker and shorter .the weary days
grow.
Deeper and deeper the still, .fluffy
Buried our world ’neath a carpet so
white—
Is injured my .Rose by .the cruel win
ter’s Might ?
Nay, fresher and sweeter, theugh.win
ter may chill
Other flowers of woodland, valley .and
hill,
Shall bloom just as sweetly all thru
the big snows
A wonderful woman, my Northern
Rose
May your span he over as light ami
free, |
Fair as a rainbow o’er a summer sea;
May the blasts of time and life’s cold
snows
Never change the bloom of my
Northern Rose.

ELECTH1N HAY„G ANEF CREEK.
It is easy enough to go voting,
As we planned it all along
But today, when it is election,
It seems there is something wrong.*
Here we are—sixteen men.and three
wemn—
Two are native, and only one white.
Who all like to show their apprecia
tion
And vote for the man who is right., i
We all go st. ong for Pan Sutherland,
And would like to put him through.
For lyj works faithfully, just and f
squarely—
Dan, we surely go strong for you. r
But the trails are so icy and slippery; j
No snow to make safe the roads; i
Twenty miles away from the polls |
here—my,
How we hate to lose these votes! !
Yes, such is life in Alaska,
And none knows it better than you j
And if you get what you honestly de- !
serve
To be—Alaska's Delegate for you.
