 LINING UP WICK
 NOT CANDIDATE

JUNEAU, April 28 Especial to the Daily Times) While there are no an. nounced Democratic candidates for delegate to congress, telegrams from Nome, Seward, Iditarod and other sec tions seem to indicate that Grigsby is favored. Local sentiment seems to be that he is the right man to fight Wickersham in the coming special election.
 The belief is growing that Wicker sham will rely on his contest of the 1918 election, and not be candidate. He seems to be afraid to run again.
 Grigsby, while not anxious to run, will make the race if it is thought he is the right man.

THOUGHT ALAN REAL
ACCIDENT NARROWLY AVERTED
WHEN REPAIR MEN SET OFF
BURGLAR ALARM.

Quick thought and presence of mind
OF the part Of Chief of Police Clark last
Monday averted what might have been
a serious, if not tragic accident, when
the daylight burglar alarm at the First
Nat:ona bank was set off by repair
NJ. without any notice to the police or
others.
The alarm was not working satisfac-
torily at the First National bank due
to a short circuit and the company
which installed the system sent up ex.
ports to repair same. They set to work
without notifying the police and in a
short time they set off the alarm.
Chief Clark was in the Corbin jewelry
store next door and he made for the
First National bank at once. Two
strangers were in the bank at the time
and had Clark not summed up the stu.
alton in an instant and been cautious
one can readily see what might have
happened. A car from the LaFond &
Brick garage equipped with arms and
ammunition was at the bank corner
within half minute after the alarm
was set off.

Farm Bureau Notes
American Farm Bureau Federation Nc
Opposing Nonpartisan League.

American Farm Bureau Federation Not
Opposing Nonpartisan League.
Recent newspaper reports have given
the impression that the American Farm
Bureau Federation which met in Chica-
60 recently was to oppose the Nonpar-
tisan League. A copy Of the resolu-
tions adopted at that meeting are given
herewith.
"Whereas, Minneapolis and St. Paul
dailies have carried reports to convey
the impression that the American Farm
Bureau Federation has gone on record
as opposing the Nonpartisan League,
when as matter Of fact the basis Of
the report was a passing remark by a
delegate and was not any action by the
delegates, therefore,
"Be 1t Resolved: That the American
Farm Bureau Federation does not go on
record for or against any political or
ganization but welcomes the co-opera-
ton of all farmers, irrespective Of their
political affiliations

FILLED BUT BOYD'S BENE-
FACTOR GETS ONE.

Minneapolis Tribune: Owing to the
unusual demands for sleeping accom-
modations in Minneapolis hotels, many
visitors have been turned away within
the past few days. "Bill" Randolph,
hunter and trapper who lives 40 miles
west Of International Falls, faced the
possibility Of long hunt for quarters
when he arrived last night. "Can I
get a room9'' he inquired Of Ray Boyd,
clerk at the Vendome hotel.
"Sorry but there are none left,' he
answered.
He did get room, however, for he
recognized in Boyd the man whom he
had taken into his cabin year ago

HAS INTOXICATED MAN LIQUOR
IN HIS POSSESSION?

Atlanta, Ga, Nov. 22.-lf man is
proved to be in an intoxicated condi
ton, can he be prosecuted for having
liquor in his possession In such q
case, has the man got the liquor, or has
the liquor got hint
These are knotty questions which the
court of appeals found too difficult fol
its solution, and which it certified tc
the supreme court for instruction as ia
the law. John A. Graham, Jr., was
convicted in Appling superior court for
having liquor in his possession in viola
ton Of the law. The state could not
produce any liquor evidence, but did
have witnesses to testify that Graham
was in an intoxicated condition. The
jury found him guilty, and he was SEN
fenced to pay fine Of 1925 or serve II
months.
Now tho court Of appeals wants to
know:
"Upon the trial of one charged with
having, controlling and possessing in
toxicating liquors, is testimony showing
that he was seen in an intoxicated, or
partially intoxicated condition sufici-
emit to authorize jury to find that the
defendant possessed and controlled such
liquor. either at the time he was OBJ
served to be under its influence or short
~ prior therefor
"If the preceding question is an
swered in the affirmative, then an an
swer is desired to the following ques-
ton:
"Where person is found in certain
county Of this state in an intoxicated
condition, caused by the drinking Of
Intoxicating liquors, are these facts
alone sufficient to show that the de-
PENDANT possessed and controlled such
liquors in that county where it does
not appear that he lad been ouside OF
that ceunty?'
The question will be argued before
the supreme court at an early date.
