REP. COOMBS
 HERE ON WAY
 TO LEGISLATURE
Councils Member Makes Long Trip by Sled
 In Good Time

Representative Nate II. Coombs of Council, reached Seward yesterday after an overland trip of 40 oays via Iditarod, enroute to Juneau to attend the legislature. He came by dog team to Mile 40 and then sent the team back to Anchorage to await his re- turn next fall.
 Coombs was a member of the last legislature and expressed himself this morning as both satisfied and amused at the outcome of the measure impos- ing a tax on the salmon canneries.
 When we were passing the bill the lobbyists for the fish packers said it was alright and very fine. As soon as it was passed they hit all the wires to Washington to stop it's going into effect. We realize that they figured the law would be knocked out as un- constitutional. It is evident that they were not acting in good faith and l am perfectly willing to add a little to their taxes, which are so low now as to be almost nominal, considering the profits they reap from Alaska's resources every year"
 Rep. Coombs brings words that the body of Conrad Breeding, who was lost in blizzard near Nome has never been found, although it was reported found at one time.
 Rep. "Scotty" Allen left Nome five days before 1 left Council" said Coombs, "but I understand he went by way of Chitina and Cordova.
 This trail looked best to me, and l found good going all the way.
 Rep. Thomas Price of Anchorage (not George as stated by error) left for Juneau on the Alaska after stay here of several days.

that, while they narrow it in order to
make a case against Germany, the wider

much more of case against Germany.
There is too much tendency think,
to talk about mere contrast in forms
of government; to talk about democracy
and despotism as if the first meant the
presence and the second the absence Of
a parliament; to suggest that the Decla
ration of independence was merely a
scheme for setting up electoral districts
and ballot papers and ballot boxes.
There is nothing about ballot boxes in
the great sentences of the Declaration Of
independence. as there is nothing about
