LOCAL ARRIVALS 1
STEAMER YUKON
I
- |
In the face of the 60 mile gale
Saturday evening it required but two
attempts of Captain Glasscock, com-,
mander of the S. S. Yukon to safelv
warp his big steamer alongside of
the dock. The first try resulted in
one line breaking but the second
time he approached two bow lines
were heaved ashore; the twin screws
were started in opposite directions
and slowly the big liner swung into
her berth. A half a dozen lines then
defied the elements.
With the exception of running into
a snow storm between Cordova and
Valdez the voyage north from Seat
tle was excellent but during that
storm the steamer was compelled to
tie op for six hours which delayed
her arrival in Seward.
Horses, dogs and chickens were
among the 500 tons of general mer
chandise which was discharged.
Owing to the late arrival the Yukon
did not get away for the South until
yesterday at noon.
The incoming list of arrivals from
Alaskan ports included the following:
H. Schubert. A. Kohler, J. Mesher,
C. M. Chenowith, C. A. Shomaker,

COMPTROLLER BILL
KILLED IN SENATE
REVIVED IN HOUSE
WORTH AND SUNDQUIST RECOM
MEND AMENDED MEASURE ;
BE ADOPTED
Using steam roller tactics, accord
ing to reports from Juneau, the House
elections committee reported the
Comptroller bill with a substitute
measure, with recommendation by two
members of the committee, Chairman
Worth and Sundquist, that the sub
stitute be adopted for the original bill.
Fisher, the other member of the
committee, protested against the pre
cipitate action and declared the pro
visions of the substitute measure
were unknown to him except in a gen
eral way, and moved to have it re
committed for study and report.
Murray, in support of Fisher, declar
ed there was a question whether un
der House procedure, such a measure
could legally be considered, as it was
substantially the same bill the Senate
had defeated.
Fishers’ motion to recommit was
k>st 7 to 9, with Fisher, Gaffney, Lo
men, Murray, Rydeen, Scott and Shel
don voting for it. Ross then moved
that the substitute be adopted, which
carried 9 to 7, without change in the
alignment of the members.
The sponsors of the controller bill
claim the new measure differs mate
rially from the original bill in that the
attorney general has been cast into the
discard so far as the board of control
is concerned and the governor put in
his place.
When the measure came up for sec
ond reading Friday the House steam
roller began to function, crushing out
all opposition, and held that it was
proper legislation, despite the tech
nical objection raised by Murray.
Murry's point of order stated that
substantially the identical measure
had been considered fully by the Sen
ate during the present session and
that it had been rejected by that body.
He also showed that the Senate had
rejected an amendment by Dunn which
sought to accomplish the very thing
which had been done in the House bill.
Murray cited a precedent estab
lished at the first session of the Alas
ka Legislature in 1913 and quoted the
entire decision rendered by L. V. Ray,
president of the Senate, in which he j
declined to receive a second bill deal
ing with substantially the same matter
as the one acted up earlier in the ses
sion.
Taken by surprise, the proponents
of the measure steam-rolled through a
motion to take a recess for an hour
and a half, during which time caucuses
were held. On reconvening, Speaker
Smith promptly overruled the point of
order. Murray appealed from the
ruling of the chair and on record vote
Smith was sustained by a vote of 9
to 7, with the lineup the same as on
previous occasions, Paul, Benjamin,
Worth, Ferguson, Sundquist, Ross,
Johnston, Grier and Smith voting in
the affrmative.
When Lomen moved to continue the
bill second reading another day to
give the members an opportunity to
study the measure, and prepare
amendments desired, the steam roller
again smashed all opposition, defeat
ing the motion 9 to 7.
Sheldon then attempted to gain con
sideration for a substitute prepared by
I himself which would provide for an
all-Alaskan commission composed of
I one member from each division with
| the Governor ^or Chairman. The
! juggernaut again ran true and this
1 bill was tabled on motion of Paul,
j Sheldon gave notice that he had 50
amendments to offer, which is believed
! to mean that he will offer section by
section amendments embracing his
entire substitute measure which was
i tabled the day before.
