The scheme was concocted by a Valdez merchant and Seattle news, paper reporter. It's main idea was good, but the details were sadly marred in the execution, In the first place, seatue's voice was not raised for the good roads money until after the amount of the appropriation had been decided upon and reported by the military affairs committee of the House of Representatives. In the second place. the amount to be ap- propriated by congress is sufficient for Alaska's immediate needs, In the third place. Alaska needs and wants territorial government more than 1t does good roads. Seattle, however has sufficient and selfish reasons for not advocating territorial government for Alaska,
 Seattle has held her Alaska Day" and the shouting is over, At least no harm was done, and it is only fair to say that the agitation widely ad- vertised Alaska and in this way  proved of great benefit to us. Per haps Alaskans would feel more grate- full to Seattle if the motives of her people were not so transparently sel- fish.

SENATOR BAILEY. CHAMPION OF
 THE HORSE.

Previously it has been our stern ana sad duty to descant upon the statesmanship Of Joseph Bailey of Texas. the senator who cast the lone. vote against granting $SOO,OOO to the Messiua earthquake sufferers, and who was the sole objector to having a fitting tribute paid to Abraham Lincoln by the national congress.
 We have scanned Bailey's public career with curiosity. At one time it was our belief that he represented the Standard oil He denies the al legation. however. But after reading the glowing perioration which is a copy of a speech made by him in ,he senate. we are inclined to believe that he is representing the horses of the United States. This supposition IS more probable for the reason that Bailey himself is connected by con sangululty with the noble beast of burdrn-tor who will deny, especially after reading the following speech. that the southern senator is an ass:
 
 The speech was made auent bill appropriauug money to buy a vehicle for government official Bailey offered an amendment providing that only vehicles drawn by horses should be used. His speech follows:
 Mr. Bailey The senator from Texas believes that next to the dog the horse is mans best friend The senator from Texas believes that the horse is the uoblest of Gods dumb creatures and he does not want to see him supplauted by a senseless machine. AS far as | anu concerned think the people had better travel little slower and go the old way rather than travel so fast and not go the safe way. IC gentlemen want to use an automobile and take the risk Of wha, it may do, for sometimes | understand 1t turns upside down and sometimes catches the occupant in the turn"
 Mr. Warren. iuterrupdng-"And sometimes horses run away"
 Mr. Balley-"Horscs run away grant that. but the horse only runs away when man mistreats him or does not know how to use him. All Che accidents with horses are trace able to the folly or mismansgement of man. But am told that accidents to these machines are sometimes un- ayoidablc am told they some. times skid, do not know exactly wha. this means. but have an idea. Then I am told they sometimes turn turtle and the top side goes to the bottom and the bottom side goes to the top.
 "IS the senator or a citizen chooses to use them on their own premises l would be the lasqaan to interfere; but I do not think it is right to take them on the highway and endanger the lives of men. women and children by the use of machine that. trighteus the means of locomotion em ployed for thousand years
 'I believe that at least the govern, ment ought to set the example of travelling the old way, and let us travel by things that breath and feel rather than by machines that neither breath nor feel and yet produce much mischief in the world"

An attempt to reopen the old red

raided the house at S451a North Ala

fered by the occupants of the place il
was necessary for the officers to break

BODY OF SALTER
TO BE EXHUMED
DOUBT EXISTS AS TO NATURE
OF INJURIES
WILLIS EARNSTlNG AND WIFE
HELD WITHOUT BAIL
Detectives Say Thay Can Produce Ex-
perts Who Will Testify 1t Is lm-
possible to Drive Horses
Over Man

Because of some doubt as to certain
injuries sustained by William Salter'
an aged veteran who died shortly atter
being found August IA in an alley near
Sixth street between Spring ana MAIN
streets, and for whose death WINS
Earnsting and his wife, Rose Earn
sting, are being held in the city JAN
without BAIL the body probably VIII
be disinterred today and further eN-
animation will be made of the BODY.
Earnsting and his wife were sub
iected yesterday afternoon to close
examination by Detectives jones'
Boyd, Reitch and Roberds, who de-
clared but little additional informa-
ton was obtained from the accused.
Earnsting, who formerly was en-
ployed by a morning newspaper, admit
ted shortly after his arrest that he had
engaged in a struggle with the old
man, and that he fell on the old man
when the door which they had fallen
against broke from its hinges and pre-
cipitated them on the floor.
Case Hard to Establish
[ 1t is expected the police will have
some difficulty proving case against
Earnsting, as the coroners jury re-
turned a verdict to the effect that the
old veteran came to his death as the
result of being trampled on by horses
attached to a swill wagon. Despite
the fact that Earnsting, so they say,
admitted he watched the team ap-
proach the body after he had deposited
it in the alley, and noticed that the
animals stopped before they could
tread on the inert form, it is believed
he will contend the horses, and not he,
caused the death of the aged man.
On what charge the woman will be
arraigned the detectives refuse to
state. They are reticent concerning
her connection with the case, although
they say she had guilty knowledge of
the affair, being told of the matter
shortly after the assault on the old
man was committed.
Witnesses May Be Produced
The detectives say they have wit
nesses who will testify to the effect
they saw Earnsting and Salter on the
stairs at the rooming house at 515A
South Main street shortly before the
body of the old man was found in the
alley They will produce, so they say,
experts who will testify to the fact
that it is impossible to drive horse
on or over the body of a man.
The accused couple are being held in
the city Jail without bail and they will
be arraigned as soon as the officers
make further Investigations.
