SENATOR DICK REPLIES
Lakens Ohio Controversy to One
OUer Hanna and McKinLeu.

Akron. Ohio Aug. 2s.-Following the statement
given OUT by Senator Foraker at Washington Sum
day night the issue OF Endorsement OF the Ohio
other matters, Senator Charles Dick gave out a
statement to-day. Both statements were induced
by the address OF Harry NJ. Daugherry ex-chair~
man OF the Republican State Committee at Cleve-
land last Saturday, in which he urged the retire
ment OF s.natoz Dick chairman of tho state ex-
ecutive committee and less cordial Endorsement
OF Senators Foraker and Dick than of President
Roosevelt by the state convention. Senator Dick.
in his statement says:
This is not the first experience of the kind Ohio
Republicans had TO decide a like controversy some
years ago. At that time Senator Hanna was de-
nouneed by some red necked boss President
Mckinley was called ''jellydsh." and Judge Nash
"a man without backbone" All these men, how
ever, survived the and insults of their enc
Republicans.
If the Ohio Senators were disposed for any rea-
son TO retire from the conflict they could do
now They owe IL TO their friends the entire
to finish. In this contest their friends will be
found on one side. their enemies the other. In
the controversy, however, the national administra-
ton is not involved, since no one opposes strong
whole situation has shifted to one of opposition to
the Ohio Senators and the present party organiza-
ton The coming state convention, all delegates
participating. must decide these matters.
The fact that we entertained different convictions
never for one moment lessened my respect for my
colleague. never lowered my high regard for him
q man and never invited doubt of his loyalty to
his party or his devotion to his country. I know
oI no reason therefore, why he should not receive
strong commendation from those whom he so ably
served.

Why Alaska Fails.

The following has been going the rounds credited to the Sitka Cablegram. It is d mild, but ? n understands ble way to present nice little truth:
 Alaska has been entreating congress for thirty years and more to grant this great area-it is nothing else-some sort of government There is reason why the unceasing requests have been de- nied, and one is given by d man who is close to the powers that be and who has been through years of contact with them.
 He says the east fears the growing power of the northwest and for no other reason Alaska is denied rights she would receive instanter if she lay on the At lantic rather than on the Pacific coast Territorial government would be the stepping stone to. state government, and that would carry with it increased op- position from the northwest for eastern congressman to contend with.
 At first glance it seems preposterous that members of the governing bodies of the great United States government would deny privileges accorded by the constitution in order to preserve sec tional supremacy, but to the man who has had practical exparience in modern politics the above explanation seems to be the best one vet given of Alaska's distress

MANY a man compelled to get his living by his days labor will find his condition harder on account of the out rageous poisoning of cxGovenor Pea body and family in Colorado and the previous dynamiting to death of the former governor of Idaho. To go back to the time when Peabody was governor in Colorado it is possibly true that he was guilty of cruelty that was not short of criminal Out of the hatred of some one of the victims of his stern dictator ship the recent outrage has evidently come. But the thing that made such a crime possible was of more uncertain origin, due, may be, to some unaccount able slip in the process of nature that put the instincts of beast into the shape of a man. Such being is not likely to go undetected, and when he is caught it is questionable if there would not be more appropriate way of dis posing of his case than leaving it to the law

A LESSON IN THE PLIGHT OF THE
 RUSSIAN JEWS.

What d refreshing change it would be to read in the news from Russia some of these days that the Jews had turned on their prosecutors and given them blow for blow It would not. matter about the immediate outcome: just q determined and manly effort at resist ance is the one thing ncedful at the present time to give form and force to d worldwide sympathy and begin q happier era for this suffering people.
 The spirit of the age would not much longer permit the atrocities now going on if the victims themselves would strike righteous (even if for the mo- ment d losing) blow for self deliverance
 There is lesson in the condition of the peace-loving, non-resisting Jews that might he considered with benefit by the members of the numerous anti-war societies and other a-sociati0ns ba-ing their moral philosophy on the theory that violent resistance is always wrong. Those holding to such teucts place such suod a. they may possess at the mercy of the least merviful element of all, and evil fatten- on the ouly thing in the world that cuuld he made to master it.
