FROM TUESDAY’S DAILY FROM TUESDAY’S DAILY
REPRESENTATIVE HECKMAN IS BACK
EROM LEGISLATIVE SESSION
Returning from a strenuous two
months’ stay at the Territorial capital
as a member of Alaska's Second Leg
islature, J. K. lleckman arrived home
again on last night s boat, and to
uay has been in receipt of the con
gratulations and thanks of the people
ol this community for the excellence
of his work as their representative.
To the Miner Man Mr. Heckman
nad the fillowing to say:
• ■ Of course, as far as Ketchikan is
concerned the main thing doue at the
session of the Legislature was the
passage of the bill which appropriat
i twenty-fiver per cent, of the money
ia the Territorial treasury from tue
i orest Reserve receipts for school pur
poses and the division of the balance
equally among the lour divisions of
-lie territory. The Representatives
and Senators from this region fougut
this measure from beginning to enu
ou the ground that Division 2vo. 1
nad produced the greater part of the
money and accordingly was entitled
to have that proportion spent on her
roads. Senator Sulzer made a wonder
iuI fight iu the Senate, demonstrat
ing that Ketchikan and this end of
the Division made no mistake In elect
ing him, but the opposition had tne
votes, and over-rode all we could do,
and our only means of self-defense at
this time is a suit in the courts, to
decide the legality of the action ot
ne Legislature, This will probably
ue instituted. Iu the meantime, there
will be about $11,500 available for
■ oad purposes iu Southeastern Alas
ka, of this amount we have pledged
;1,500 for the building of a bridge
across the Mendenhall river, which
leaves about ten thousand dollars
which may be used for building the
harcoul Point road.
To supplement this, a memorial to
Congress wa passed, asking for the
appropriation by Congress of $50,000
for the improvement of the roads of
this division, which if acted upon by
the national law making body, will
live us enough to complete the Char
coal Point and Portage roads, and take
care of the other roads, needing at
tention in other parts of Southeastern
Alaska.
The wolf bounty bill is far from
1 cingthe measure I had hoped to see
passed, but at that it is a step in the
ight direction, and possibly, if con
ilitions justify same, can be improv
ed upon two years hence.
A bounty on hair seals was out of
the question, as the members from
the Interior couldn’t see the need of
it. and had the majorlt yof the
votes in both houses.
The closing day of the session was
one never to be forgotten. A deadlock
had arisen between the two houses
over several matters, and it looked
as though it would be impossible to
get a revenue bill through. First one
house and then the other proposed
measures along this line, but the other
either voted them down or tabled
them. Conferences were held, but no
.suits obtained.
At last suggestions were made,
which provided for the raising of a
I out #E 10,000.00, which levied a tax
fortcrritorial purposes and in addition
to the Federal tax, of four cents per
isc on Red salmon, two cents on
Medium Reds, and one cent on Pink
ami Chums. Under this schedule,
the three hundred fish- traps operat
ing will each pay a license yearly of
*100.0(1. and the total receipts from
the fishing industry will aggregate
I ”0.000. All of the rest of the in
dustries of the Territory will pay the
ale nee 0f #50,000.
For some reason, some of the
• • > seemed to have a special
"Touch against electric light plants,
'.St why I don’t know, and it was
• roposed to tax them as high as two
• V "ent of their income. This was
modified however to one-half of one
!'"r cent of their entire gross receipts.
I don’t want to appear in the light
>•’ r grouch or a kicker, but you can
■ f me down as saving that Snuth
o st. -n Alaska will never get a square
II until v.-a are separated from the
cr .• of the Territory. That she
“ resources to instifv her being
n independent territory Is demon
-•trat'd by the fact that her timber
'iv is to 1c used for building roads
1 ting the children all over
t'-.e Territory, and her salmon cann
ing industry bears by long odds the
greater part of the burden of the
taxes of the entire Territory. Her
towns are permanent and her resourc
es are of such a nature that they will
’"it practically for ever, and she is
capable of maintaining the population,
no* ,.f a territory alone, but. in a few
years of a state.

FROM WEDNESDAY’S DAILY
PUTS MATTER OF “WET” OR
“DRY” UP TO THE PEOPLE
At eleven o’clock this morning,
Judge Jennings made the following
statement of methods to be used this
year in Ketchikan to decide whether
licenses for liquor selling shall or
shall not be granted. Practically every
saloon keeper in the town was present
when Judge Jennings read his state
ment:
The time is approaching when lic
ences for the sale of intoxicating
liquors for the year beginning July
1, 1915, and ending July 1, 1916, will
either be granted or refused, and I
have asked you to be present in court
this morning in order that I might ex
plain the course which is to be pur
sued thig year.
The law provides that no license
for the sale of intoxicating liquor shall
be granted unless it is made to ap
penr to the satisfaction of the Court
that a majority of the white male
and female (fall) citizens, liver the
II I ' !■ II— ■
FROM WEDNESDAY’S DAILY
age of 21 yearsf residing at th.
place where liquor is to be sold u
within two miles thereof, have, in gooi
faith, consented to such sale, ltesi
dene© for any length of time is suf
1'icient. The law also provides tha
the burden is upon tlie applicant fc
a license to show to the satlsfactloi
of the Court that a majority of sab
people have consented. This mean,
nothing less than that the persons de
ten, that the method pursued las:
year did not afford a true test, bi
causej as was alleged, many person
were induced by business and othe
considerations to say that they tver
in favor of tho sale of liquor, who)
in truth and in fact, they are oj
posed to such sale. The represer
tation lias been made also that man,
persons had said, according to tin
book, that they were opposed to tli
sale of liquor, when in truth and ii
fact, they were not so opposed, bu
had been induced by social, family
or other considerations to say tlio'
they were opposed.
Strong statements hnve been mad
that if some way could ho adopte i
siring licenses must, at their own ox
! ponse, show to the Court the necessary
facts.
Last year the method pursued wa.
as follows: . Persons were appointee
to take the census, and at the timt
of taking the names, the person:
enumerated were then and there asked
whether -or not they consented, an.
the fact of their consent or non-com
sent was noted in the enumerator’:
book. As the book showed that a
majority as required by law had con
sented, licenses were issued.
The claim, however, has been made
to the Court by many persons b
communications, ' both oral and writ
by which a citizen would have ai
opportunity to express his real pre
ferance in the matter without it be
ing a matter of publicity, none win
were really for “dry” could bi
counted as for “wet”; and nonr
who were really for “wet” could bi
counted as for “dry”; and the
Court has been asked to adopt soni
method by which those who desired
could give expression to their rea
wishes without publicity. The Court
thinks such request is reasonablt
and proper, especially in view of th
provision of the statute that the
consent must be in good faith, for in
one could question the good faith ot
a secret expression of desire.
Census
But how is the Court to ascertaii
what is the real wish, that is, th
good faith wish of a majority of th.
qualified persons?
The Court cannot know -what is ;
majority of the whole number Oi
persons unless it knows what is th'
whole number under consideration
and in order to ascertain what is tin
whole number of qualified person:
the Court will today appoint tw<
enumerators to take a census of al
such persons.
For that purpose the enumerator:
shall provide themselves with a bool
or books, properly indexed. i:
which shall be entered (alphabetica
ly) the information desired. This
census will bo completed at the earl
iest possible moment, and when com
pleteit, the census book is to be de
posited with the U. S. Commissionci
at Ketchikan, ami shall be ojien for
public inspection, and any one win
desires, may take a copy.
The census enumerators are not tr
ask whether a citizen is or is not ii.
favor of liquor being sold—the)
are only to take tlie name, residence
and occupation of every person found
to be qualified.
The persons who intend to appl)
for a license must bear the expense of
taking this census, and the persons
appointed must make arrangements
with those who intend to be appli
cants as to their compensation, as tin
Court lias no funds at its disposal for
such purpose.
Voting
Having ascertained in the manner u
foresaid the total number of quali
fied persons, the next thing Is tc
ascertain how many of them do, in
good faith, consent.
For the purpose of ascertaining this
(as nearly as possible) tho U. S. Com
missioner will, on May 24th, be at
the City Hall in Ketchikan, at ul
times between the hours of 1) a.in
and 7 p.m and will then and then
receive and place in a ballot bo>
provided for that purpose, the ballots
of all the persons offering to vote
on the question; provided, the nami
of the person is in the census boo;
and the person is not challenged.
If any person offers to vote wliosi
name is not in tho book, tlie hullo
will nevertheless be received if thi
person swears that lie (or she) pos
sesses the qualifications aforesaid. Ii
such case, liowecr, the name, resident:,
and occupation of the person slial
be taken and his (or her") ballot sha)
be placed not in the ballot box, bm
must, by him (or her) be placed in :
separate envelope which shall be sealei
anil marked with his (or her) mum
FROM WEDNESDAY7* "DAILY
and tho word “omitted”; said envel
ope is to bo then and there handed to
the Commissioner and is not to be
opened except by an order of tho
Court auil in its presence, and not then
unless it bo necessary so to do in order
to decide a contest.
If any person offering to vote is
challenged as not possessing the qual
ifications required by law, as nfote
1 said, tho ballot shall nevertheless -be
received if the person swears that ho
possescs the qualifications required,
in such ease the name, residence and
occupaton of tho person shall be tak
en, but his (or her) ballot shall be
placed not in the ballot box, but
must, by him (or her) be placed in
a separate envelope, which envelope
shall be scaled and marked with his
(or her) namo and the word “Chal
lenged;” and said envelope is to be
then and thore handed to tho Commis
sioner and i8 not to bo opened except
by an order of the Court and in its
presence, and not then unless it be
necessary so to do in order to decide
a contest.
The method of voting is as follows:
Those who consent to the sale of liqu
or in Ketchikan during the year from
duly 1, 1915, to July 1, 1916, will
write the word “wet” on the ballot;
those who are not in favor of liquor
being sold in Ketchikan during said
year will write the word * * dry ’ ’ on
the ballot.
As each vote is received, if the name,
of the person voting is in the census
book, the name shall be checked, and
if the name is not in the census book
a separate notation shall be made
thereof.
Counting
When all have voted who offer to
vote, the said U. S. Commissioner shall
proceed, publiealy, to count those
ballots only which arc In the ballot
box. anil lie shall certify the result,
and shall forward to the Clerk of the
Court the census books and all the
envelopes containing ballots.
If it appears from the counting of
the ballots in the ballot box that a
majority of all the qualified persons
have voted “wet”, the result will
be considered as final, unless those
opposed to the granting of licenses
show that there has been some fraud
or unfairness affecting the result. A
reasonable opportunity will be afford
ed to make this showing.
If it appears from the counting bf
the ballots in the ballot box that a
majority of all the qualified persons
have voted ‘dry,” the result will be
considered as final, unless the person
desiring a license shows that there
has been some fraud or unfairness af
fecting the result. A reasonable op
portunity will be afforded to make
this showing.
If it appears from the counting of
the ballots in the ballot box that
neither side has a majority of all
the qualified persons, then the Court
will determine from evidence pro
duced at a full hearing which, if any,
of the votes in the envelopes are en
titled to be counted, and will count
them accordingly.
If, On counting all the qualified
votes cast and considering the num
ber of qualified persons who did not
vote, it should appear that tho num
ber of votes cast on either side
might be materially affected by count
ing the number of qualified persons
who did not vote, then some equit
able means will be adopted to ascer
tain whether or not those qualified
persons who did not vote do or do
not consent to the sale of liquor, and
effect will be given accordingly. It
is for that purpose, and also to give
the liquor dealers an opportunity to
adjust their business if the town
should go “dry,” that the vote is to
lie taken thug early.
f cannot refrain from saying that
I here will be no innocent of reason
ible misinterpretation of what I have
said if you will bear in mind two
things—
1. The law requires that the person
desiring the license shall show to the
satisfaction of tho Court that a ma
jority of qualified persons (the law
does not say qualified voters) have,
| in good faith, consented. Therefore it
I is up to you to show this, anil without
j such a showing, the Court is power
ioss to grant licenses.
2. The method adopted is designed
primarily to afford persons an oppor
tunity to express their wishes with
out publicity—that is, that the good
faith wishes of as many as possible_
may lie ascertained. For want of a
more concise name .the method point
ed out is spoken of as “Voting”_
but this is not strictly an election_
it is only a method to allow a secret
expression of the consent or non-con
sent. The result of the method adopt
ed may, however, bo final because
enough people may vote to determine
the question. If only a small pro
portion of the qualified persons ex
press their preference, the result will
not afford a fair basis of a test. It
ii therefore to the interests of both
sides to sec that us large a number as
possible cast their votes, bccauso if
either side has in the ballot box a
majority of all qualified persons,
there will be no call for any further
effort to determine tho mooted ques
tion of consent or non-consent.
