The Anchorage Times, owned by Charles F. Her ron who always Republican until the Republi- can party reused make him National Committee Shaw, who always Democrat until he failed to get appointed Collector of Customs when he became a Wickite tries make it's readers believe that a committee of the House of Representatives is said to have decided that, matter of law the Austra- Han ballot law passed by the Alaska Legislature is technically defective and therefore binding upon the people. Delegate Suzer should retire from the for Delegat Congrss From this hypothesis it ranges off into abuse of the Democratic organiza tion in Alaska.

Catch the Thieves.
(Ketchikan Progressive-M Miner

According to the Juneau papers, thieves are busy at their trade, and profitable trade it appears. It is like taking candy from kid That is just as easy but it pays better They lift fishing traps, take all the fish and make thousands. without the least to themselves. This reminds of the early days when the tinhorn gamblers infested the Nome division and when they had bird to pluck, they robbed the sluice boxes
 This trap-robbng will result in some shooting scrapes for anything, the owners are not aseepat least not all the time, and if reports are accurate, they armed and some robbers, 1t is said. When they meet, trouble will start. Before blood is split. it would advisable to have on the traps who can be relied upon. Besides. in our opinion, it is up to the Government to protect legit mate fishing. Why should trapmen pay licenses to the Government if the latter gives them protec- tion? However, for the good of all, we hope the Government will catch some of the thieves and make examples of them.

 Germany today is importing thousands of reindeer from Sweden paying 28 cents pound for the car 
 With a dwindng cattle grazing area in the United States, it may be in the future that we will have depend upon Alaskan empire for our steaks chops and roasts Then will need rein deer at other times than Christmas
