MARSHALL ATTACKS
 INDIANA COURT

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 2S. - Gov. MarshalPs last message to the Indiana Legislature prior to his accession to the vice.Presidency proved an inter- esting rousing document from end to end
 For the first time in many years the Democrats have absolute control of both branches of the Legislature, 95 of the 100 members of the House being Democrats and all but eleven of the 50 in the Senate. Among the important bills proposed are a public utility law, a workers compensation law, an inheritance tax law, an anti loan shark law, a new highway law, a law making the sale of habit-form- ing drugs a felony, a blue sky" law, a franchise referendum law, an equal suffrage law and a law providing a minimum wage scale for women.
 Gov. Marshalrs first utterance in his message was a warning when he said: Unless progressive legislation is enacted, the people some day will open up the aul-de.sac, even though the opening may lead representative government over precipice into pure socialism or paternalism."
 From this he passed to criticism of the State Supreme Court for enjoin- ing the Governor and the State Eelec- tion Commissioners from submitting to the people the question of a new constitution. He said:
 With the utmost respect for the majority of the Supreme Court, i left that it had usurped the functions of the legislative and executive branches of government; that the Sheriff of the court would have a rather inter- esting time in getting possession of my body and punishing me for con- tempt, and that such decisions gave greater impetus to the recall of the Judges and decisions than all the opinions of mere laymen touching the usurpations of the courts.
 q have sued out a writ of error to the Supreme Court of the United States with confidence that that court will assume jurisdiction and decide the questions involved, and with con fidence that it will not dismiss the case and tell me that if I thought I was right I should have totally disre- garded the decision of the Supreme Court, defied it's authority, thrown its Sheriff out of my window, called out the militia to defend my position and submitted the question to the peo- pie regardless of the court"

". W. CASEY HAS
 MORE LIVE STOCK

w. w. Casey returned on the Hum boldt last night after few weeks of business and pleasure combined in coast cities. Mir. Casey says that many people are coming to Juneau in the early spring-some of them have money, others just talk as if they had it. There isn't any big hotel money available in Seattle now, and Juneau must solve the problem of suitable and ample hotel accommoda- tions. Houses must be provided for people to live in and for business pur. poses
 Juneau is standing high back East. Mir. Casey says he saw telegram of. fering $14.S0 for Alaska -Gastineau mining stock with a $500 assessment against it and a par value of $10.00 This means that the stock is selling at about 200 per cent. That sort of thing has an encouraging effect on everybody
 Seattle is much interested in Ju. neau just now," said Mir. Casey, and they are inventing new separaters all the time"
 MT. Casey brought four horses, some sleds and other useful gear in the transfer business along with him.

STEAMER HUMBOLDT WILL
 DOCK FOR REPAIRS

This present trip will be the last for the Humboldt until she can be overhauled. This will probably take about four weeks as the Humboldt is forced to dock in San Francisco for inspection on account of the discrim- ination against this ship on the part of the Seattle dry dock companies.
 The dock charges to Humboldt in San Francisco are about one-third the amount demanded by Seattle con cerns. It is expected that the Hum boldt will next reach Juneau about March 5.

THE ~MIRACLE- or IT.

Professor Laughlin OF the Univers-
ity of Chicago does not seem to have
az good an opinion OF the ability OF
senators and representatives at Wash
ington as a patriotic man might well
take on. He speaks of the currency
measure as a political miracle" He
assigns as reason for this view the
fact that the measure contains a great
right and saving principle and yet, he
says. not 10 men in congress who
voted for the bill understood its funda-
mental principles"
This saving principle. which the
members of congress did not under
stand according 10 the professor. is in
the organization Of credit provided
for in the measure. II is miracle
TO the professor that this feature
should have been incorporated.
Il is a safe guess that a good many
times 10 members OF congress under
stood the importance OF the credit
features Of the measure In fact the
member who after all the discussion
hasn't a fair understanding of those
features doesn't belong in congress.
Nor Il il a matter that is tremen-
dously difficult Of understanding IL
has been tried in an extensive way by
other countries for a long while; it
has been presented by innumerable
publications and writer's in this coun-
try; il is a feature that was accepted
as a matter of course by congress.
Instead OF this feature becoming a
miracle" through being introduced at
this time. the great wonder and mys-
terry Is that IL was not applied a gen
Grafton ago. II is simply a point in
which we have been far behind
other trading nations and il is
not so much OF miracle to
take a score OF years 10 try TO catch
up with the procession. Congressman
knew this thing 10 years ago; but for
some reason they could not go ahead
and act on their knowledge. Instead
OF flattering ourselves that we have
worked a miracle. We would better
whisper that We have been slow and
stupid for once.

NO WORSE THAN USUAL.

Dispatches from Chicago. which
state that the number OF men out
OF employment there and in other
cities is no greater this winter than
in preceding years, are a striking
commentary on the truthfulness Of
Congressman Mann's recent "calam-
ity yawp" in the house OF representa-
tives. From his remarks one would
have imagined that at least half of
Chicago's workers were out OF jobs
and starving in the streets. Any one
at all familiar with the life OF large
American cities knows that in winter
they attract many thousands OF men
who do not work at all. such as
tramps. or whose work Is Of a kind

weather.

keep this stale old lie on its travels.
