The latter are executive functions.” Governor Has Power Continuing, Mr. Hurley declared: “That Congress did not contem- plate divesting the Governor of Alaska of his functions as the Chief Executive of the Territory is spe- cifically indicated in Section 3 of the Organic Act wherein it states, viz: . that all laws of the United States heretofore passed es- tablishing the executive and judi- cial departments in Alaska shall eontinue in full force and effect until’ amended or repealed by Act | of Congress. . . . “I therefore contend thaj the Alaska Legislature has no right under or by virtue of law to at- tempt to fill the office of Auditor a8 created by it. It could create such an office but as to filling it, the only alternative which lay in the power of the Legislature was by instructing the Governor to do 80, or by calling for an expression of the will of the people through an election. 'prcls to return here tomorroW eve- ning. A third plane has just been ad- ded to the fleet, Mr. Eckmann an- nounced today. The Ketchikan landed at Seattle today and will be fitted at once with pontoons. It is of the same type as the Ju- neau but is slightly larger and has a higher rated speed and carrying capacity. It will be tested out by Mr. Eckmann next Sunday and| brought north at once, probably coming direct to Juneau. It is planned to station it at Ketchikan. The Sitka, the second ship bought by the company, is. on wheels and operating around Seattle where it will be kept for the present. A fourth plane, the air-express type with a capacity of six passen- gers, is now under construction and will be delivered in Seattle June 5. This is the same type of plane that recently set a new trans- continental non-stop record. It is possible this ship will be christ-! ened Wrangell and it may be sta tioned at that town. The Juneau will leave here Thursday morning for Ketchikan, Mr. Eckmann said. It will stop at Kake to pick up Mr. Skinner who is returning to Seattle on it. The plane will go from Ketchikan to Hyder Friday and thence to Seattle Saturday. It and the Ket- chikan probably will start north ccocvssscsectesnccccssocccsecccen Long Flight South Makes Skookum Hl; Remains There Skookum the “flying. bear,” six weeks old black bear cub ic Views of this city, 18 no tance flights even though they bfeak bear , do not seem to be conductve to his health.

How about its water supply and its system of milk inspection? Its sanitary system? 3—Will T like the town? Does it have shaded streets, is it a quiet, roomy, airy town? Is its moral tone good? 4—Shall T know and like the people of the town? Are they “home” folks without false exclusiveness? 5—Can we have a good time in that town? Are the modern comforts and convenience available for its resi- dents? 6—Can we live reasonably and well in the town? What are the housing and shopping conditions? T—Is the town easily accessible to the outside world? 8—Can T make good use of money investment oppor- tunities in that town? How are its banking facilities afi dogs it have prosperous stores, favorable labor con- ditions 9—Can I get a job in that town? We promise to do our part to make our town l'em up to the scratch.” The Daily Alaska Empire As To Commissioner “Second, the attempt by the Leg- islature to fill the office of the Superintendent of Schools was also a void act on its part for the rea- son that it constituted another and further usurpation of the execu- o (tive functions of the Governor of Alaska. “Bection 323, page 231, Compiled Laws of Alaska, reads as follows: “That the Govetrnor of the District | of Alaska shall be ex-officio super- intendent of public instruction in said district, and as such shall have supervision and direction of the. public schools in. said district | and shall prescribe rules and r!gu- lations for the examination- and qualification of teachers, and shall make an anual report of the condi- | tion of the scheols in the district to the Secretary of 'the Interior'.” "The power S0 conserred, Mr. Hur- ey ' eontends, is still further pro- tected by Section §'of the Organic Mt. and he argues that the Acts invading that power are null and void per’ se and do' not require to be so declared by Congress. He also urges that the Philippine case, re- ferred to in connection with the Auditor’s election, is controlling as well as regards the Commissioner of Education. Henderson Can Continue Mr. Hurley concluded his letter by saying: “I would therefore call your at- tention to the fact that it would appear that the office of Auditor of the Territory is being illegally filled and administered by Mr. Cash Cole, and that the present in- cumbent in the office of Superin- tendent of School is entitled to hold that office, with the approval of the Governer, until his successor is legally appointed or elected and qualified.” Mr. Smith said today he had not given serious consideration to the communication, nor submitted it to the Attorney General or anyone else for an opinion as to the mer- its of the contentions raised. : IREPRESENTATIVES OF MORMON CHURCH HERE Paul Warnick and Wallace Ever- . . .
