A former resident of Alaska recent- j
lv defied a U. S. Marshal in Seattle,!
according to a newspaper account.
In part the story went: A new
claimant to the rum running boat ;
Zev caused a stir in prohibition cir- ”
cles when Mrs. E. K. Baltufl, 2317
South (1. St. Tacoma, took possession j
of the craft and defied V. S. officials i
to arrest her.
The Zev was seized bv Agent Al
fred Hubbard with 200 cases of liq-1
uor, near Samish Island, last Sunday, j
It is moored at the boathouse of P» te 1
Forrest at Madison Pa’k, under gov
ernment seal.
Mrs. Baltuff obtained a pass to
visit the boat from Ed Bonn, U. S.
marshal, and once aboard, she im
mediately hoisted her 1 lag as owner!
and threatened to haul the craft j
away.
Revelle phoned Marshal Benn, who
sent Deputies A. B. Miller and A. M.
Smith out. Then all three principals
went out and finally the officers
persuaded Mrs. Baltuff that her
rights will not be japardized by al
lowing the boat to remain in govern-;
ment hands.
Mrs. Baltuff showed a decree of
[divorce awarding her all property of:
j her former husband excepting some1
I Alaskan mining property. This de-1
I cree included the Zev, which Baltuff
I bought from the government as the
M-453.
! bids for printing of both the Senate
and House journals of the Territorial
Legislature, of 225 bound volumes.
The former will make between 300
and 400 pages. All three printing
offices at Juneau and the Cordova
Daily Times submitted sealed bids,
and when opened it was found that
the Times had underbid its lowest
. competitor for both jobs S495.70.
The Governor was advised that the
Times was ready to post a bond and
' execute its part of the contract, as
per specifications, and was astounded
when Parks advised that the prices
quoted were too high and that he
! had decided to readvertise and mod
ify his specifications. This state
. ment in face of the fact that never
’ before has any office offered to do
: the work at the low figure submit
' ted by the Times.
Parks offers as an excuse for
withholding this printing from the
j lowest bidder that he wants to save
. the Territory money; while as a mat
ter of fact the only saving in print
■ ing that was ever made was in the
several jobs awarded the Times, on
> a competitive bid, in March. On the
^ printing of one of these reports the
Times was $327 lower than a Juneau
L paper, which had cut its price con
r siderably under what it received for
the same job two years ago.
