LET US HOPE

Word comes from Washington that Delegate Wick ersham hopes to get his bill extending the full Terri ,oria form of government to Alaska passed It is en- couraging news. and we shall continue to hope that the Delegate is sincere the matter and that he will make determined effort to realize the hope Alaska needs n We need amendments to our general school laws. We need power to regulate many things. The lack of governmental power is seriously retardins ae ye,ooment. It is shacklng glowing country that is read, for sane and reasonable expansion

Washington has wisely decided not to withdraw our troops from Chihuahua. To do so would be to to forfeit at once our title respect in Mexico It would be blow at American prestige which would render all future negotiations vastly more difficult
 The proposal which Washington is said to be pre- pairing to offer as a substitute is reasonable one It Is also a test of the good faith of the carranza government It is simply that the American troops withdraw somewhat to the northward and there re- main. on condition that the carranza troops begin general movement from the south with the object of helping to round up the bandits in the VIII" terri tcry.

that a serious error was made In the
game between Brooklyn and Boston.

other time.

probability, the game. For Coombs

the Boston batter.

Yesterdays Game Is
Longest One on Record

Since the worlds series was instituted
under the direction Of the national COM
mission. In 1908, only seven extra-inning
games have been played. and the one
yesterday between the Boston Red Sox
and the Brooklyn Robins, which went
fourteen innings. established n record.
Previously the longest worlds series
game on the books was the first contest
OF the Chicago-D Detroit series in 1907.
which resulted In tie score at to 3
after thirteen innings OF play. In the
third game OF the series between the
Boston Braves and the Philadelphia
Athletics in 1914. the teams battled
twelve innings before the Braves won
by a score OF 5 to 4.
There have been two eleVen-inninR
games and two OF ten innings each. In
1912 the New York Giants played an
eleven-inning tie at 8 to with the Red
Sox, and in 1911 the Athletics defeated
the Giants in an eleven-inninK struggle
by a score OF 3 to 2.
