SPEAKING OF THEFT.

Singing "Dnward. Christian Soldiers,' and prOfeSSing morals superior to those of the old po- Iitical parties, the bull moose of California steal the name Rcpub- lican to place il on election bal lots and while they are commit ting the theft adopt resolutions endorsing Roosevelt and John son. Was there ever in Amer ican politics a more diShnnora- blc proceeding?
 The Johnson machine, which iS in power in California, went over bodily to Roosevelt, but it is diShnnOrable enough tO cling lo lhr name Republican while re- jrciing the Republican candidate for president and declaring iiS allegiance iO the bull moose par ty.
 I'nd"r the California law. ran- didaIrS for national rlrcInr are selected by nominees for tn" leg iSlatur". The mrcIing for iIiS purpose was held "Wednesday.

They walked out and held real Republican conven- ton.
 Johnson said in recent speech that Roosevelt was the best two-handcd fighter Inc world had ever seen. Tho Johnson ma chino is conducting a two-faced fight in California, and already q powerful reaction has sol in against such methods.

THE DEFENSE OF ALASKA.

Alaska has been declared the key to the Pacific coast by more than one military expert. An enemy could command the safe harborS in that SectOn, could have access to the fuel beds eX- sting here and could use the ter riory as a base, could plan a descent upon the United States at his leisure.
 For that reason the cUntem- plated withdrawal of federal troops from Alaska ceases to be a local problem and becomes an issue in which not only the Pa ciiic coast but the entire country is intimately concerned.
 Aside from any question of the absurdity of leaving exposed an empire that possesses wealth of incalculablc proportions, military necessity apparently would dic- fate the despatch of additional troops tO the North rather than removal of the inadequate forces presently stationed there. There is every reason for safe guarding Alaska against every possible invasion, and none at all for leaving it at the mercy of the first foeman who might de- sire it.
 The congressional delegations from the entire West should fake this opportunity to hammer home to congress and the ad- ministration the fact that even the present force is inadequate and that only by the presence of additional soldiers can the na- ton be assured that it will not be subject 10 attack through it's furthcSt frontier. --- Seattle Times.

lican." The Taft forces will fight this in the courts on the ground that the Johnson organization has no right to use the name Re- publican, inasmuch as it openly bolted the Republican party.
 It is what men do rather than what they; say that should count. Thou shalt not steal" the bull moose party say, but even while they say it they attempt to steal the name Republican and go on singing Onward, Christian Sol dicrS."

Rose Tinted Mountains

The rOsey light that tinges so beautifully the summiIs of lofty, 'snOw-clad mountains before sum- rise and after sunset is due to h. fact that the yellow and red rays of light possess more pene- trative powers than blue. The first mentioned rays make their way through stretches of the a. mospherp which entirely arrest and turn back the blue, and they do Ihis the more especially if the air be laden at Inc time with eX- traneOus particles that augment their opacity.
 When the sun is below ihc ho- riznn llr red and yellow rays struggle through the air as raI as ihc snowy heights, dropping their associates on inc way, and thus paint the nrccy surfaces with rcd and yellow tinted light | This roScate aftcrglow is very beautifully seen on the Jung frau.
