Glad He It happens sometimes Is Not that mans political Governor defeat is the best thing
 that can befall him. Politics is much like gambling, and success sometimes promotes greater stakes and more severe losses later. From a friend of Thomas Riggs. Jr.. now member of the Alaska Engineer ing commission, it is learned tha MT. Riggs looks back upon the defeat of his effort to become governor of Alaska as tLe best thing that could have happened to him undo~ the circumstances.
 It will be remembered that Mir. Riggs was recommended for governor at the same time that Major Strong, the successful candidate was recona. mended for the place. For time it seemed that the chances between the two candidates were about equal, but the Major won by marrow, mar gin.
 When in Cordova recently Mir. Riggs told friend here that he was pleased that he lost the governor ship. He explained that the appoint ment to the Engineering commission meant much more to him in regard to futur possibilities than would the governorship.

SAYS THEY. ARE UNIT
AGAINST TOLLS REPEAL
Representative Murdoch Defines At.
titude of Progressives in
the House.
Declares His Party is the Only One
in Congress That Is Standing
by Contract With People.

Representative Victor Murdoch OF
Kansas. leader of the progressives in the
House, in A statement issued today, an
nounced that the progressives in Con-
gress are substantially a unit against
President Wilson's plan of repeating the
exemption of coastwise shipping from
Panama canal tolls.
The progressives in Congress" de-
clared Mr.. Murdoch, ARE substantially
a unit against the proposition TO repeal
the toll exemption clause in the Panama
canal act. Both democrats and republic
cans are bopelessly divided. A little over
one year ago all three parties covenant
ed with the people to exempt coastwise
traffic. Today the republicans and demo-
Gratis. as parties. are breaking their
pledge. The progressive party, free from
the influence of sectional or selfish in
tcrest, but actuated by principle and
united by mutual conviction, is standing
by the contract it made with the people.
Thirteen million voters in 1912 charged
the American Congress to carry out their
will in this matter. To scorn that man.
date of the people now Is to violate the
principle of representative government
and to surrender the sovereignty OF the
American people. Viewed either in the
light of technical Interpretation or in the
large sense of national sovereignty and
of universally recognized rule, there is
no violation Of the ay-Pauncefote treaty
in the exemption from tolls of our coast
wise shipping.

While l do not mean to discount the
service rendered by the regulars, I must
say that in every conflict in which we
have been engaged the volunteers have
done splendid work. All right thinking
men must dofr their hats to the men who

tutional guaranty and absolute necessity
of freedom of commerce between the
states; these considerations make i'm
perative our uncompromising adherence
to American principles in the crisis. We
do not read the HayPauncefote treaty in
spirit Of easy and overanxious accom-
mediation to Great Britain. To US its
terms are explicit.
Were those terms against US. we
could not violate them and keep the
respect of other nations. But the terms
OF the treaty are with us and II we
misread them against ourselves we
cannot keep our own respect. The rep
resentatives of the people are not asked
merely to suspend the exemption law
until our rights can be arbitrated.
They ere asked to confess national
dishonor. If dollar diplomacy is to be
succeeded by foreign policy of peace
at-any price whereby our domestic af-
fairs are to wait upon the dictation of
foreign ministries. then the time has
come for new declaration of indie
pendence.

Pronounced a Success.

At the conclusion of the ceremonies the
officers pronounced the inspection one Of
the most successful in the history of the
organization. There was a larger crowd
on hand than had ever before been in the
armory. Although the drill hall is large,
it was with some difficulty that space
enough could be cleared for the dancing.
One part of he ceremonies in which the
Vice President evinced much interest was
the competitive drill in the manual Of
arms. Out of the 125 men who started
the drill, Coxwain T. B. Miller won the
honors by standing up longest. Before
the drill was started, however, the Sd
Division, of forty-five men, commanded by
Ensign Sigourney, was ordered out of
ranks because these men, all of whom
had been enlisted within the last month
had not been drilled sufficiently to stand
the test. The judges were Lieut. Getsin-
ger. Lieut. Burns. Ensign Nudge and
Chief Gunner Donneily.
