FrNx,s FALLAcIoUsNEss

SD, aking before the House commit tee on territories and arguing in fayca Of the Hamilton bill, MT. Albert Fink, some time Nome attorney, stated tha, the people of Alaska were not entitled to home rule and that there were not five hundred people in the north who expected to make the cour- try their permanent home, Mir. Fink added. however, that he was one of these and that his interests were thor oughly identified with the north.
 Mir. Fink places himself on record and makes three distinct charges in his efforts to oppose home rule. First he says that the people of Alaska are not entitled to home rule. What decision we see here, what masterly discrimination that enables this Nome lawyer to sweepingly state that Alas kans are not entitled to home rule. Perhaps he thinks that Fnipiuos are; and perhaps he can give his reasons for this nicety of judgement Home rule is a sacred fight Of all free born Americans, and no opinions of Mr. Fink will make otherwise. Rights cannot be conferred by acts Of Congress or uulHfied by Presiden- aal vetos. They are something We in. herit. the result of ages of civil revOl- ution We may or We may not be in possession Of our rights, but they are our rights just the same. But to com unue,
 Mr. Fink says that there are not five hundred people in all Alaska who intend to make their permanent homI In the north. This statement is so utterly ridiculous that it hardly mer. it's a reply. It falls flat of its own gamOus folly. It is either an assump- ton based upon a profound ignorance Of Alaska or else a deliberate mis- statement of facts.
 Now to MT. Kinks last point He says he is one of the real Alaskans and that his interests are identified with those of the north Now as a matter of fact NIT Fink, while he may possibly have some real estate hold ings in Nome. is not now a resident Of the northern metropolis, but is located in Nevada. where he has law practice and is apparently going to make his home. Yet he is an AL askan-according to his own state ments,
 It is precisely this stamp of people, these self constituted authorities on northern conditions which they so shamelessly misrepresent, who are hurting Alaska. Arrogating to them selves the assumption that they speak Tor the people of Alaska. they appear before Congress- and deliberately mis- state facts concerning Alaska, seek, ing to farther the selfish ends of their employers or those with whom they would curry favor.
 Happily. however. James Wicker sham is on the job and Mir. Fink doubtless discovered this fact before he had finished his testimony Wick ersham knows the north and its peo- pie. their opinions and desires; and he speaks with the full authority del egated to him by the people. He is amply able to protect us at all stag es of the game. as the Senate com mittee hearings proved to the satIs- faction of the people of he north and 10 the dissatisfaction, We imagine, of Messrs: Hoggatt.

GUT LITTLE BETTING
ON GOVERNOR S RACE.
Forthcoming Statement is
AnxiOUSIy Awaited.

Atlanta, Ga, August S.-Practical.y
only two weeks remain of the state
campaign which, so far as effective
efforts are concerned, will come to a
close with Saturday, August 20. Mon
day, the 22nd, will bring the lull be-
lore the storm of ballots or the ava
lanche of ballots, whichever one pre-
fers.
In addition to his messages to the
legislature, which have been in a
measure, pertinent to the campaign
because they concerned his officia!
acts which have been brought into
question, Gov. Joseph NJ. Brown wiz
soon issue his first statement to the
public regarding his candidacy and the
principles on which it is founded.
Except the brief and informal au-
nouncement of his candidacy, Gov.
Brown has made no public statement
of a purely political nature since the
campaign opened. He has not even
given notice to th'e charges which his
opponents have made against him, ex-
cept in SO far as his legislative
messages may be considered in the
nature Of replies.
Brown Expects to Win.
Undoubtedly, therefore, his coming
statement win be read with interest
as embodying the basis of his can
didacy and presenting his version OF
those matters upon which his political
enemies have been seen fit to at
tack him
The governor is in excellent good
humor and while making no public
boast, expresses to his friends his con-
fdence in the result of the primary.
Former Gov. Smith made his first
oral speech of the campaign at the
auditorium in Atlanta last night He
has made but two oral speeches rela-
tive to politics since the campaign
opened and he is scheduled to make
one other in Macon next Friday night.
He is expected to speak also at Triton
and one or two Other points before
the campaign closes.
The former governors address Gere
was largely along the Zines of his
Waycross speech, which was published
though not delivered, and in which
he entered into practically every
phase of the campaign. He supple
mented it at certain points upon
which there has been some criticism
Of his attitude by his opponents MAX
ing vigorous reply to their attacks
The ex-governor and his supporters
express an unbounded confidence IL

4 AMERICAN FARMERS SHOULD
PROTECT THE BIRDS

st. Paul, Mimi, August 8.-Whi!e
the greater part of the program OF
the second National Conservation cor
gress, to be held in st. Paul, Septem-
Der, 5, 6, 7, s. 8, no doubt will be de-
voted to discussion by experts on for
ests, fuel and water power. there viii
be one feature that will give the prs
ceedings a touch of heart interest.
1t is that pertaining to birds.
Everybody loves birds. Even the
hunter who goes out and Stays the
game fowl admires his bird, and lie is
no man at all, after he has shot an
excellent specimen of the quail, bhe
grouse, partridge or duck, if he does
not feel a little sorrow in his heart
as he picks up the dead bird and places
it in his game bag.
That the birds are Of great value
to the United States often has been
shown. There is an old saying that
everything is put on earth for some
good and sufficient cause. A person
is likely to question this assertion AMI
is never more likely to do so than
when he thinks Of certain kinds OF
bugs an dinsects that kill the trees
the growing grain, the cotton, tle flow
ers and plant life in general.
Right here, however, you can see
why the bird is placed ON earth. His
song is beautiful to hear and his plum
age grand to look upon, but it is the
little beak that pecks necessarily from
sunrise to sunset that is of great value
to the people of the land
Francis NJ. Chapman, curator of the
American Museum of Natural History,
is coming to St. Paul to deliver in the
auditorium, on one of the evenings
wiien the Conservation congress is III
session, an illustrated lecture Oh
birds. Mr.. Chapman has stereopti-
con views of birds in every possible
pose. He probably knows more about
birds than any other man in America
He will tel about the value of tha
bird to the farmer particularly, and
what interests the man who produces
the food the people consume, will in
terest everybody, for all must eat.

Dear Sir; Both my father and my
self have carried our life insurance
in the Mutual Benefit of Newark, N. J.

than satisfied with the splendid results
5he company has produced.
Before placing this life insurance /
had made quite study CT the subject
and believe now that 1 have given the
subject more thought than perhaps
does the average man. I believe sin
cerely that the Mutual Benefit does
more for it's policy holders than ans
other company in the way of liberal
contracts, splendid returns and in ey-
cry particular That the history of its
growth represents the highest ana
ybest among strong, reliable financial
institutions is unquestioned by those
who know.
/ have nothing but praise to offer
and wish every applicant for life in
.surance could be made to see the Mu-
tual Benefit as she really is and as the
company says: THE leading annual
dividend company"
Very truly yours.

genial Work.

Philadelphia, Pa, August 8.-Proba-
bly, nothing in recent years has so
much contributed to the public moral
and physical improvement of thu
children Of the city as the introduce
ton of school and home gardens, the
spirit Of which has spread so rapid
ly during the past few months as ~
have almost Transformed certain lo-
calities. Dark, mouldy yards in the
slums Of the. city have within a short
time been metamorphosed INFO dainty
green patches with delicate vines ana
blossoms, making a real "oasis" in the
otherwise dingy and barren desert.
And the great work has been accom-
plished under the direction of 10000
tiny farmers, who, under the direc-
ton and care and supervision of eight
teachers and the supervision of Miss
Stella Nathan, head of the department.,
have been earnestly toiling since last
April to bring about the present per,
lection of their little gardens.
With enthusiasm such as was never
eyinced in the professional gardener,
and with a satisfaction that comes only
as a result of patient labor. the little
ones are now enjoying the fruits Of
several months persistent toll during
the torrid weather and are busily en-,
gagged in watching the slow but sure
growth of the seeds they carefully
planted during the early spring. They
are now busiIy reaping a harvest Of
real tempting vegetables and clapping
their hands with joy as day by day a
new sprout appears.
