♦. ♦ handles fast, holds steady
as a rock
You can depend on the smooth, sure
action of a Savage. It functions right.
And accuracy—the most important
thing in any rifle. You can’t beat a
Savage for deadly, lasting accuracy.
And it’s light—a Savage high-power
doesn’t carry an extra ounce—but
it’s proportioned and hung to hold as
steady as a rock.
This perfect balance is always the
same. For the Savage magazine is of
the box type—full or empty—its bal
ance is unchanged.
A Savage for every kind of
American game
.22 hi-power. The amazing Imp—
ideal for woodchuck, fox and wolf.
Accurate at long and unknown ranges.
.30-30. The choice of many sea
soned hunters for deer and medium
size game at moderate ranges.
.303. A hard, knockdown hitter
—has dropped deer, bear and caribou
for 20 years.
.250-3000. An all-around rifle.
Terrific speed and accuracy make it
the gun for mountain sheep, goats,
and deer at extreme ranges.
.300. Delivers a crashing blow
that will drop the great Alaskan
brown bear in his tracks. Powerful
enough for any American game.
And the Savage .22s—the Sporter
—the new bolt-action repeating .22
—the gilt-edge accuracy of the finest
target rifle built into a sporting model.
Or the slide-action, Model T4—every
feature originally and distinctively
Savage—sturdy and accurate.

Juneau. Cases arising against com
panies or individuals operating in the
Juneau zone, however, will be trans
ferred here for trial.

after it began work last week present
ed questions to the Court asking
whether in view of the instructions of
the last Territorial legislature to the
Attorney General to bring but one
case and that for the purpose of test
ing the validity of the law, it could
properly initiate prosecutions against
all alleged violations of the law, re
gardless of number. “Judge Reed dif
fers from the Attorney General and
says: “that as the court is at present
advised the Territorial law is a valid,
existing law under which it is the
duty of the grand jury to find indict
ments against all persons whom they
find are guilty of fishing during closed
seasons in the two zones.”

ed that indictments would be returned
this week and that it is probable that
all reported violations in both districts
will be brought before the Ketchikan
grand jury, cases in the northern or
Juneau zone to be transferred here
for trial. Mr. Shoup further intimated
that in case demurrers are filed in
the indictments attacking the validity
of the law. he would move for a post
ponement of all trials until the ques
tion was definitely settled.
