Game officials report a sorry
i condition is observed in those
I beaver areas which were open for
j the past three years. The lower
reaches of streams were said to
| be stripped and the upper por
j tions, not so bad. In some places
I an over-supply was noted. Owing
| to fear of these over-stocked areas
t being stripped the the season will
remain closed.
Barney Rolando, the well known
1 Sherrit creek mining man, recently
returned to Nome from his mining
claims and reported that when he
started operations he found that
all the fittings had been stolen
from his boiler and drilling ma
chine, thus necessitating a trip
back to Nome in an effort to re
place them.
That wolves are on the increase
in the sheep hills is the opinion of
Geo. Keys, engineer at the Alaska
College, who recently returned to
[Fairbanks from a vacation trip to
Valdez. Decrease in the amount of
bounty allowed by the Territory is
held partly responsible for this
growing menace to wild life.
It is estimated that 30,000 tour
ists spent almost $26,000,000 in
Japan last year.
I The 1929 tax rate at Juneau
I was fixed at 18 mills. It was es
timated this would bring in a
I revenue of $93,254.13.
Highly pleased with their first
| caribou hunt, W. B. Hudson, Tulsa,
Okla., capitalist, and A. Baxter of
Los Angeles, explorer and big game
hunter, returned to Fairbanks from
the 12-mile district, where they
were guided on a hunt by Theodore ,
!Van Bidder. They brought back
some splendid caribou trophies and
'both were enthusiastic over the
I trip.

DUBLIN, Sept.. 5. (/P)—The Irish
Free State intends to contest Aus
tralia’s candidature for a seat on
the Council of the League of Na

This is not because of any ob
jection to Australia but as a protest
against the practice which gives
diplomatic precedence to the vari
ous members of the British Com
monwealth, according to their
seniority. Canada ranks first and
Australia next.
