RECALLS POLITICS.

John T. Spickett says the air is full of politics and it reminds him of his boyhood days when he lived in an Irish ward in Detroit, his home city. It was an Irish ward and most of the Irishmen were Dem ocrats, while Spickett belonged to "de Republican gang" Most oi the voters could not read, but knew that the mark of the "agle" repre-
 sented the Democratic ticket. Te get their vote for the Republicans
 the Republican ballot was headed by printed "agle' 'I survived the wreck, said MT. Spickett, "bu' after the trick played on them wal discovered, I looked as if l hao gone through threshing machine

UNSPEAkABLY CONTEMPTI- BILE AND DISGRACEFUl-
 " UNPATRlOTiC

When Judge Wickersham calls Mr. Sulzer stacker be- cause he did not abandon his trust as the representative of the Territory of Alaska at Washington, where he was constantly giving the adyant- age of his office and Alas kan acquaintance to the Gov ernment in connection with war activities, he is unspeak- ably contemptible, and dis gracefully unpatriotic."
 Those were the words of an Alaska business man, who continued:
 aAlaska should and con- fidently believe Alaska will repudiate that sort of politics by giving Delegate Sulzer a majority so overwhelming that character assasins will keep out of politics in Alaska"
 The business man who made this statement asked that his name not be mentioned for business reasons. However, this is not blow from the dark, because The Empire adopts the words, and offers the statement as it's own. It's soundness speaks for itself.

INSPECTORS TO GET AFTER THE
 BROTHERS
Alleged That Some Deal CTS Are Taking Advan- tage War to Raise
 Butter Prices.

The Food Administration is turn ing the full power of it's enforce ment machinery against dealers who are taking advantage of the present stringency in butter supplies and are reaping heavy profits from the rising market. It's inspectors throughout the country have been instructed to tions of butter operations and to ob- tain a check upon the recent activi- ties of dealers.
 Some manufacturers and dealers who had stored late butter have been taking advantage of a rising market to remove their goods and to sell, as fresh butter, on account of an advanced market.
 This is clear violation of Food Administration rulings, which state that butter, both fresh and storage, shall be sold at prices not to ex- ceed stipulated margin of profit over cost The dealer is not allowed to sell on the basis of replacement val ue. This eliminates all possibility of speculation, as the dealers in but ter are not allowed to profit by ab- normal advances in market quota tions.
 Telegrams have been sent to Fed eral Food Administrators, instruct ing them to take decisive measures in their States to keep a close check on butter operations and to take vigorous action wherever violations are disclosed. The inspectors have been notified that they are expected to center their attentions upon these operations and to make thorough investigation of the entire butter situation.

THE DELEGATE AND THE
 SENATE

Wickites assert that Dele- gate Sulzer has done too much work in the Senate. They have shouted that Delegates seat is in the House. Dele gate Sulzer has admitted that he did a great deal of work in the Senate. He had to if he wanted to get results. He has letters from Senator Walsh of Montana. Senator Cham berlain of Oregon, Senator Kendrick of Wyoming and others that indicate that he did that work well.
 Judge Wickersham said two years ago and often be- fore that time that he had no influence in the Senate. He said that was because the enemity of Senator Knute Nelson, the veteran Republi- can from Minnesota who was chairman of the Senate com- mittee on Territories when the Republicans were in con- trol of the Senate, and now the Senior Republican member of that committee.
 All Alaska legislation must pass the Senate as well as the House. Therefore, Alas ka should have Delegate who has influence in the Sen ate.
