FOR PLACER lER
Pledges of Representatives In Last
Election Are Forgotten When
Vote Is Taken.
JUNEAU, April 29.—Th<? house of
representatives of the Alaska legis
lature today killed Ithe bill which
would have extended the operation of
the eight-hour law to all workers In
mines in Alaska. The senate passed
the bill, but the members of the
house were able to kill It.
Considerable opposition has been
developed by placer mine owners,
who insisted that because of the short
season and the lack of necessary wa
ter, that an eight-hour law for placer
miners would seriously cripple the
mine owners and would not help the
workers.
A DECEGAIE FROM
EACH DIVISION
Is Text of Memorial Introduced At
Juneau By Senator Sulzer—
Would Help Alaska.
JUNEAU, April 29.—Senator Sul
zer has introduced a memorial in the
senate asking congress to provide for
four congressional delegates to con
gress in place of one, as is the pres
ent method. The Ketchikan senator
insists that Alaska is so large and
the interests are so varied that one
man cannot be posted upon the needs
of each section and that if four dele
gates, one from each Judicial division,
were in Washington it would certain
ly result in congress being better in
formed upon Alaska matters and the
passage of much needed legislation.
Because of the fact that the pres
ent session is now near its end it is
doubtful if the memorial will be pass
ed.

Unloaded Freight On eBrtha At An
chorage—Mariposa Delayed Lack
Facilities Handling Freight
The steamer Admiral Evans, of the
Admiral Line, reached Valdez at 7
last night and sailed for Seattle an
hour later, taking a number of pas
sengers from this port to Puget
Sound. Captain Hickman expects to
reach Seattle May 4th and to leave
on the return trip on schedule, May
5th. .
The Evans was able to discharge
her cargo upon the steamer Bertha,
now anchored at Anchorage, and this
enabled the ship to leave for Kodiak
without much delay. ,The facilities
at Anchorage for unloading large
steamers is poor and the Mariposa
will have some difficulty in discharg
ing icargo because of the lack of
scows, only one being in operation
and it hoids but sixty tons of freight.
It is expected the Mariposa will be
delayed for several days at Anchor
age because she carried a large car
go of general merchandise for the new
railroad town.
