FEDERAL INCONSISTENCY
The Department of Agriculture sets up-a commission
to regulate hunting and trapping in Alaska, which en
acts stringent and oppressive rules for the conservation
of the wild life. Then the wolf, wolverine and other cred
atory pests, becomes a menace. At this juncture the
Alaska Legislature steps forward and appropriates the
sum of $30,000 to combat these destructive agencies,
while the federal government contributes only $10,000!
If the federal government does not consider Alaska
capable of administering this resource it might find
something to ponder over in this action of the Territory
in its effort to save the fur and game.
In justice, the Territory should contribute nothing,
yet the people do not quibble when a real menace appears.
The Department of Agriculture’s idea of conserving
game and fur is to put the trapper out of business, or
make it so distasteful for him that he will quit the hills.
So much for administration from cushioned chairs
and action from men who have actual experience with
respect to the question at issue.
Representative Lomen is deserving of congratulations
in thus rebuking the bureaucrats and taking the correct
course in conserving furs and game.
You can always tell a movie star by the cigarette
she is supposed to smoke and the soap she is said to use.
As for some modern couples, if a little child does
lead them it’s generally to the picture show.
Old residents in Chicago claim to remember way
back when only foreigners shot one another down.
A writer says the people of Hooper, Neb., are just
like one big family and all mind their own business. But
who ever heard of a family like that?

MOB OF FRIENDS BACKSLAP
“BABE” AS HE HURRIED TO
DUGOUT TO ESCAPE <
NEW YORK, April 19, The j
daring and successful effort of the \
Yankees and the Red Sox to open
the belated major league baseball
season in New York was dwarft «
by the demonstration for “Babe” *
Ruth, world champion bridegroom
and home run hitter. -- (
Immediately after the game <
closed hundreds of fans surround- j
ed the big “Babe” and as soon j
as the final Red Sox out was reg- <
istered, he literally had to be res
cued from his friends.
The Yankees won their first <
;g'me of the season by a score of <
7 to 3 but to a portion of the 4
crowd this was only an incident.
Ruth was the vital thing and he !
was caught before he could reach ^
the dugout; he seemed frightened j
i and there was a wild look of ter- j
ror on his face as he tried to evade -j
the none too gentle backslappings I
from hundreds of hands. \ ^
i After he reached the club house ^
the crowd turned its attention j
tohis bride satisfying themselves j j
with cheers from a respectful dis- 5
tance. j 1
A large crowd thoroughly enjoy- <
I ed the grammar grade play;
presented at the Liberty theater
last evening. The children were ex
ceptionally well versed in their ;
several parts and handled the !
roles without hestitation—like vet- i
erans.
In between the acts a saxaphone
solo was rendered by Maud Lar
sson, accompanied by June Geyer,
on the piano. These young ladies
displayed much musical talent and
were given a good hand.
The directors of the play, as
well as the cast of characters,
were complimented, following the
performance, for the training and
clever execution of their annual
show.
