proposed the following resolution
for the First Division of Alaska.
What do vou think about it?
Most people are too lazy to think.
Y.'.en read Die resolution and do
your part to support it instead of
ccndemning what the poor natives
are trying to do for their country.
Resolution Xo. li?
Whereas i has come to our at
tention that man}’ white trappers
in southeastern Ala. ka are trapping
before the trapping season has be
gun under our laws and
Whereas this evr will be avoid
ed largely l v the refusal of the
Alaska Gam., Commission to issue
trappers licenses before the legal
season for trapping arrives, and
Whereas there n no place in
southeastern Alaska where any
hardship wip he imposed on trap
pers by this limitation since the
hunting areas in this district are
within easy reach cf the water,
Therefore be it. resolved that the
Alaska Cam., Commission be re
quested to w’thhold all trapper’s li
censes until the date when it would
he lawful to begin trapping, and
that, a copy of this resolution be
sent to the Secretary of Agricul
