THE SEATING OF DELEGATE GRIGsBY

The seating of Delegate Grigsby over the pro test of Judge Vic 'ersham by the unanimous action of Congress is very gratifying, though not at all surprising to anyone who had taken pains to post himself. All the precedents, contrary to the allegations of Wickersham and his attorneys were in favor of the seating of MT. Grigsry upor his certificate of election. Those Wckite alleSa- tons probably not made in good faith. IL is likely that the Wickites were depending upon their. ability wire pull partisan decision against MT. Grigsby of Congress.
 While those familiar with the situation, scious of the strength of their position and relying upon the honesty of the Republicans in Congress, expected Mr. Grigsby to be promptly seated, it is refreshing to realize that their confidence not misplaced Men engaged in the public business do not often play peanut politics. and the Republican leaders coud not be worked by a little bunch Of Aaskans with whom peanut politics is the daily vocation.
 It is fine to know that Alaska will be repre- sented in Congress in spite of the plans ing politicians, and that she will have represen- tative of the ability of Delegate Grigsby and his knowledge of Alaska.

r benefits amounting to some

900, mileage and other benefits amounting to some 5000 $10,000
 Instead of accepting MT Grgsbys challenge to go before the people, Judge Wickersham and his cohorts this diabolical scheme to get the pay of a Delegate for trying lawsuit rather than to permit the people of Alaska to be represented in Congress by a of their choce-or at all-at time when her cause ought to be considered in con nection with the readjusment and reconstruction plans for the country.
 the interest of the people has no place in Judge Wickershams calculations. To him the posi- ton of Delegate to Congress is job-a job which belongs to whenever hold it. He regards it as
 proper matter for legal controversy between claim To him it's status is that of income producing property. means to him the same as meant that Fairbanks property which conducted gamb- ling house and saloon from which he received an income many years while he was a United States District Judge.
 But a Republican Congress refused to play pea politics Wickersham and the little bunch of personal politicians in Alaska which has pinned its political future to his fortunes It has larger things to do than to pull chestnuts out of the a group of renegade Republicans and discard C Democrats in Alaska who have nothing else to do than to the people and work out plots for their personal political profit.

At last We have Judge Wickersham's Aaska legislative program at the National capital He wa here for months without taking the people into bis confidence. Now he has said his say He would have had Congress devote the time it can give to Alaska during the special session and the long session to trial or a lawsuit to determine whether or not he is to receive $l 5000 salary, mileage and other Der qusites
 Judge Wickersham asked Congress to approve plan that would allow a year for the trial of his contest Tor seat Tn Congress He asked that in the meantime George B.

Can Fish Really Hear?
Chicago JournaD

Chicago Journal)
 Can the humber minnow or any of his larger brethren hear? He has ears, but they any use him? Some scientists have eXperimented and said "Yes!" while others have experimented and said No!' However, recent study to indicate that fish do hear. According Popular Science Monthly some of the fish experimented upon had their ears removed, and others had their skins made insensbe Then sounds were made in direct contact with the water, but without agitating it at all and signs looked for. It was found that fishes were influenced by sound. One of the most peculiar and striking manifestations the fact that fish that had itf hearing destroyed lost it's of direction when swimming fast It could swim straight slowly, but as it attempted to put speed it went round in spras Considering that many species of fish travel considerable distances during their periods of breeding and depositing their such loss of direction would tend to make them easy prey for heir enemies.
