NOME, ALAsKA, SEPT. ., 1918

The smallness of the world can be brought home to mind by the thought of the extent of the country which lies nearest to this part of AIaska--Russia. From Boring straits one need travel just through that one land and reach China. Persia, Austria and Scandina- via That one country connects. one might say. our own famed Kotzsbue Sound. or. anyway. the Diomede is- lands. and their walrus hunting Cap senicks and Peluks, with the land of Omar. the dominions of Confuctus. the home of the Goths and Huns, and the race that discovered Anvil creek. Around that one country are the civil izations of the Orient and the Occident. Across a strip of water to the south may be seen the glimmer of the lights of the mosques of ConstantinOple and the Sublime Porte and the Turkish gun boats in the Dardanelies while across a strip of water to the North can be seen the igloos of Teller city and Shismaren and the lights of the Mary Sachs that went through more vicissitudes than any old Turkish gum boat. by the way.

A contributor to a Ketchikan news- paper has charged the responsibility of the Alaska poll tax law and its en- forcement up to the democrat party of Alaska. That is either unfair or giving too much credit-depending upon how the poll tax is viewed-to the democrats. The Alaska legisla- ture was a non- partisan body. There was but one member of either house who was nominated and elected as party candidate. MT. oaffney wal nominated by the democrats of Nome as a party representative and made his campaign as such. All the others from our four divisions were elected to the legislature as non -partisans. Al a matter of fact the democrats were in n minority in the legislature. Tn the senate consisting of eight members there were three democrats-Senators Tanner. Breeding and Roden. In the house, consisting of fifteen memberl there were six democrats-Representa- tives Svindseth. Gaffney. Burns, Gray and Driscoll The presiding of'icers Of both houses were republicans.
 No. the Ketchikan man Is wrong No party Is entitled to credit or blame for the work of the Alaska legislature Juneau Empire.

that is that Sulser must have been several different kinds of an idiot. In the beginning and to get elected to the governorship he sought and obtained
 the hid of Tammany and immediately after election. after having the power of Tammany proved to him by his very success, he turned on those who were good enough to support him but not good enough to share in his triumph, and he turned upon them when he knew in his heart within that there were several openings in his moral armor through which Tammany would he sure to pierce his political heart.
 When Sulxer was here in Nome there were many who thought him great and there were many who regarded him in an altogether different light. Because he was a congressman and member of important committees and because he became governor of tho greatsst state in the union people ac- cepted him as an oracle and c statss. man but today who could say . word in his favor especially as to greatness or to worthiness? Is there a man 10 poor as to do him honor?
 Men are judged by position and greatness is usually only the slamor that position imparts.

The latest issue of the New York American. the chief paper of Hearst. shows that Hearst now admits the guilt of Suizer. Up to the moment when the awful facts came out before the Frawley committee the New York American stood by SuIzer as against Tammany hall but now it says in the issue of August 1s that "the undeser- we'd but unmistaka ble sympathy with him now in his fall by his own wrong doing is due to widespread feeling that his exposure and ruin are due less to the high crimes and misdemeanors with which he Is charged than to the vindictive hatred of the followers of Mir. Murphy"
 In this phrase the American throws over sulzer while still trying to place some blame on Murphy and Tammany. It even goes SO far as to say that sym pathy with sulzer is undeserved and after that 1t is hard to understand how the American can declare thar the blame for his exposure lies at the doors of Tammany and that his ex- posture should he made a weapon against those who brought about hts fall.
 It may be right that the people give sympathy to Suixer because they be- lisve Tammany to be at the bottom os his exposure but in saying 90. whether they are or not. Hearst admits that hostility to one organization is re- Garded RI sufficient to condemn that organization hecausc tt performs m act of obvious justice when 1t exposes . criminal. This is hardly n logical manner of reasoning and may rnther cause those who have been blindiy hostile to Tammany to feel that the big New York political ordcr is mt quito so black as 1t is painted.

In recent years the beach has been

property owners at Keansburg Beach long
for the early return of summer that they
may go down and open their pretty bunGa-

numbers of other persons who have only
spent summer there in a tent or bunga-

charmed that at the first sign of summer
they are eager to return, but not as occu-

The steamers of the company are not

OF the many enchanting summer re-

New York none can surpass Belmar. IN
the Judgment Of many well known real

which enters into the measurement OF the
summer colony which can be called with

II Is reached by the trains of the Cen

PENNSYLVANIA, and is consequently on two
great all steel rail highways from the
heart Of New York.
Belmar occupies a commanding position
along the northern seacoast OF New Jer-
sev. and is so situated that It is always
favored by cool breezes In the summer
months. when the streets OF the me-
tropolis are almost baked under the rays

blow from the ocean In the Icy days OF
winter. 1t is this delightful climatic con-
dition which makes II such splendid all

cannot stand the rigors OF the winters OF
the more northerly residential centres.
Relmar is within one and one-half
hours journey from New York. The
train service includes schedule with

morning hours. and a similar schedule In
the evening rush hours. Between those
hours there are frequent trains, and there
is also a satisfactory train service up to

N. !. TAX MAP LAW
What Cities will Have to Do
Under the Measure.
RURAL ZONES INVOLVED
Progressive Plan Originated in
Empire State, but Was
Not Adopted.

New Jersey, as the result Of the work
of commission that recently investigated
taxing conditions in the state, now has
upon its statute books one OF the most
progressive and farreaching tax laws OF
any state in the Union. 1t is mandatory
tax map act, and under its provisions
every municipality in the state must base
plot maps of all its land for the purposes
of assignment within two years. In cities
these maps must be on the lot and block
plan, but in the rural districts a cheaper
method has been provided for. one never
theless which will hereafter prevent the
escape from taxation OF any property
Under the tax map law. surveyors
map will. of course, have to be made for
municipalities where there is any conges-
ton Of population-that is where the
land is divided into lots and blocks.
In the farming districts the commission
had in mind the use of the state geologi-
cal maps. In New Jersey. these maps
are exceedingly accurate and well pre-
pared, SO that an enlarged photograph can
hundred feet to the inch, and showing the
roads and township lines
These maps can then be turned over to
the local assessors or the county tax
boards for the drawing in of the prop
erty lines The assessor on the county
tax board starts on his work with the
knowledge of the exact number of acres
within the district as shown by the geo.
logical survey, and in fixing the property
lines this number of acres must be ac-
counted for. OF course, the one fixing
the lines may err in that he may assess
some OF the taxpayers for more land than
they own, but he will quickly find this
out and II won't be long before he Will
have his property lines accurate. This
is a cheap and inexpensive way of provid-
ing tax maps for the rural communities
the estimated cost of each of these maps
not exceeding $50
This cheapness of cost does away with
the argument so often brought up by the
rural communities. that the large cost of
a tax map made IL too much of burden
on the taxpayers. Under the proposed
plan an adequate tax map can now be
provided cheaply. and one that will result
in every acre of land in the municipality
being taxed something that Is not no"
done William Heydecker, one of the as
sistant Tax Commissioners of New YORK
City, deserves the credit for originating
this plan OF maps for rural communities.
He submitted ii to the recent New YORK
state Tax Conference. but, while thought
OF highly II nevertheless was not taken
up.
The bill providing for the mandatory
adoption of tax maps by all municipalities
in New Jersey was passed at the recent
session Of the Legislature, and when its
provisions are carried out New Jersey. Will
have the distinction Of being the t'nly
state in the Union in which there viii be
no doubt that every parcel of land en-
titled to be taxed is assessed.

Commerce Is Doing and
Hopes to Accomplish.

Some Of the finest homes on the Jersey
shore are located at Long Branch, n. j.

their owners chose Long Branch as the
ideal recreation centre will be readily
understood as the charms of this great
city with seashore. lake and country
features are revealed.
Long Branch has six miles of ocean

Elberon and West End TO North Long
Branch
Plans are being perfected for a greater
ara therefore a better Long Branch.
In the last month the city commission
has been rebuilding many OF the streets
of the place. Broadway and Third ave-
nue. have been remade. and Second ave-
nue. is to be repaved. These improvements
will be greatly appreciated not only by
the permanent residents. but also by the
cottage occupants in the summer. The
changes for the better in the business
part of the town are many.
Long Branch is on the south arm Of the
Shrewsbury River. Lovers of boating
grabbing and fishing will find this the
ideal place for water sports.
