BY CHARLES A. WHlTTLE,

| European countries in general are
short Of labor. Rehabilitation OF
armies progresses slowly and the Pc
Rod for fall sowing Of small grain
in Europe will have passed before any
material change can be made through
recovery Of labor from the armies
Therefore, there is going to DO .
continued shortage Of small grain IN
Europe, making 1t probably necessary
for this country to supply as mucn
grain next year as this.
But instead Of the nation maintain

In the South It Is not oaly a sooa

II all the cotton and corn fields

ABOUT MACHINES.

Two Territorial Senators yesterday Senators Roman and Britt, both of whom have been actively connected with politics in Alaska for many years, said on the floor of the Senate there is such Democratic machine" as was recklessy charged by Senator Suth erland in his wild and silly speech yesterday after noon And both spoke the truth. The members ot the present Legislature know they did so.
 And Senator Britt spoke equally truthfully when he charged Senator Sutherland of being machine politician. -es
 The Democratic organization has not attempted bring any pressure to bear the present Legsla- ture. There has been trading inside or outside the Legislature among the Democrats. There has been no "plums" offered for support for this that There has been combinations for division of spoil There has been scheming next years candida cies for any office. There has been dckerng over the National Committeemanship the Territorial Charmanship. There has been sparring for posi- ton in next years primaries conventions. There has been factory turning out political medicine o any character. There has been threats to make all the trouble possible" The Democratic members of the Legislature have been absolutely free and in dependent, and each is being guided in his work for Alaska by his conscience and judgment
 There has been talk of a machine and ring" but it has not involved the Democratic organization, Ii has been Democratic machine"
 The people know what machine has been working. They have other Legislatures in Juneau, and they have them organized and know how it was done. They understand the part that has been played in them by Senator Sutherland They know that Senator Sutherland is and has been, first, last and always, anything to boost the Wickersham machine. They know that his sole purpose in his speech yes terday to undermine the confidence of the people in public officials who earnestly capaby work ing advance the interest of Alaska and to serve in good faith. He is trying make the admnistr ra- tion of Gov Riggs a failure for the political advan- tage that might accrue thereby to the Wickersham machine, of which he is an important part.

in your sleep is not good evidence. Huh! It is good enough evidence for your wife.
 Funny how a man can be 80 grouchy with his wife in the morning and so pleasant with the girl he meets in the street car ten minutes later.
 Lots of men were Perfect Babies when they were infants. And their wives can tell you that they have never outgrown it.
 One thing we like about a small boy is that he sleeps just as hard at night as he plays in the day time.
 A woman can always sit down and have a good worry over the fact that she has nothing to worry about.
 When some men marry they are not satisfied to give their wives their names. They also give them the right to do their thinking for them.
 If the boys happen to be hand some, Mother can always trace the resemblance to the male side of the family.
 The world is growing better. A man doesn't have to wear Buffalo Bill hair nowadays in order to look important.
 Every time a Perfect Girl is dis covered we find that he have a whole lot of Missouri blood in our system If a Perfect Girl wants us to act as her press agent she'll have to let us do our own measuring
 You have often met man who was willing to say poor because Great Wealth Might keep him out of Heaven, haven't you? Neither have we.
 We know a husband who doesn't think that his wife talks too much He has been married exactly foul days.

 The Governments looks quite like pure democracy, based, it to be, upon Sovets or what used cail town meetings assemblies of the village, district fathers Upon closer inaton, however, vicious principle reveals itself the exclusion from the franchise of any member of the middle upper strata of society. This vicious principle of class distinction appears to through the whole system of judicial and executive-but how these developed out of to discover.
 In such hay lights falls upon the situation we to discover arbitrary power at work, auto cratic that of the Czar Everywhere single will, unregulated and irresistible to be operating the machinery. Nowhere we discover evidences of bona fde representation of the people masse, nor any signs that the system, such as it is, has sprung out the heart of the people at large. It seems, rather to have been violently imposed upon them by the. determined purpose of few theories who have constructed it out of their creative imagina tfops The basic principle which has produced the system does not be of justice for all but of resentment for all injustice which has been done to some.
