NOTICE OF MARSHAL'S SALE
United States of America, Fourth Division, Territory of Alaska--ss:

Public notice is hereby given, that by virtue of writ of Fieri Facias tor execution), dated Septem- Der 15, 1920, issued out of the District Court, of the United States for the Fourth District of Alaska, on a judgment rendered in said Court, on the goth. day of August, A. D. 1920, in favor of George w. Albrecht, and against John F. Baird, Jujira Wada and K. A. McIlhenny, I have, on this 22nd. day of Septem- Der, A. D. 1920, levied upon the following described real estate, sit uated in the kuskokwim precinct, Fourth Division, Territory of Alaska, to wit: All the right, title, interest and estate of the defendant E. A. McIlhenny, in and to that certain placer mining claim known and de- scribed as creek claim Number Six (6) below Upper Discovery, on Bear creek, tributary of Tulacsac river, in the Kuskokwim precinct, Fourth Division of Alaska.

McIlhenny, in and to that certain placer mining claim known and described as the San Diego Bench claim, the said claim being the first tier bench claim op- posite creek claim Number Five (5) below Upper Discovery on Bear creek, on the right limit thereof, in the Kuskokwim Precinct, Fourth Judicial Division of Alaska.

have but an impersonal interest iE Alaskan matters. With that Seattle influence removed the i.anc-C Garry bill would likely fall of its owr weight. Of itself it cannot satisfy and answer the recently-aIouse scliritude ard curiousity of Alaska's friends in tEe United States touching the pitiable plight ot this Territory. Then, moreover, Il measure framed at the instance ana upon the advice of the heads of those bureaus whose abuses it is supposed to correct. would ordinarily excite the critical examination it deserves l.. those congressmen interested alone in the equities of the case. No rerpetua- tior of political sinecures; no liz cidental benefits 70 the aggressive commercialism of q distant city, and no other circumstance will pro- cure the passage of the ..anc-Cur- ry bli if the members oi the Ameri- can Coarress once know that those things can only oe at the further sacrifice and increased distress of the Alaskan people. Unfortunately Alaska may no, he able to place her side of the matter before Con gress. It Is cur peculiar misfortune that aside from limited financial group, and the purely official bu- renucratic group, few Americans are intere sted in AlaskGrs, vr any of the other sublect-pcopics under their jurisdiction, cXceptir~ in an ace demic way. Tn this fact. and the fact tha. actual residents of Alaska will have TO voice to proclaim her im- pending peril, lies the chief assur- ance of the passae, of this cril-pre- sag ne measure.
 Alaskans past the age of nasty con cIusions and unfounded deductions and ungenerous suspicious, reject the theory that the sponsors in Con- gress of the Lane-Curry measure intend other than good to the people of Alaska. But, whatever de- ference the Alaskan may concede to lofty motive, he can never believe measure specifically consolidating,

 Laying aside all resentments born of injustice; all misgivings born of experience; and accepting without reserve that the men who will con stitute the proposed Alaskan De- velopment board will disprove in their words and deeds the Lincoln ian maxim that no man is good enough to govern another man with out that other mans consent; still, the conclusion obtrudes itself ire sistibly that if the Land Curry bill passes into law, The Alaskan re- sponsible for the present and future welfare of a family, will have no other sensible course open to him than to abandon his Territorial domicle and seek new home in d land where hope and opportunity are not closed to his children.

sage the measure will doubtless be represented to Congress as embody- ing the aspirations of the Alaskan people for home rule; and, the cir constance that few Alaskans have thoughtlessly spoken favorably of the measure, will give the weight to this contention; whereas in all pro- bability, such expressions by Alas kans were predicated on the theory that any change of any kind would be an improvement over existing conditions.
 Such small scraps of genuine Alaskan sentiment as may reach the ears of individual congressman will doubtless do more harm than good in many cases. If the last session of Congress be fair criterion by which to judge, too many Alaskans

 nowhere. It provokes both dislike and contempt in the minds of the disinterested, who would almost sure | ly be our sympathizers and champ ions if the story of our oppression were presented in terms of frank and manly courtesy.
 When a mans birthdays have piled up until folks of forty strike him as quite youthful, he is more apt than younger men to hesitate in crediting ulterior motives to others-even to professional politi- clans. Paradoxical as it seems, the punching of years that bring with it strain of pessimism, bring also Ia pretty-well rooted conviction of the fundamental honesty of the gen eral run of men; and those nation al legislators directly identified with this Lane-Curry measure are no ex- captions to that rule. A careful and dispassionate study of the whole matter in all it's details will con- vince fair-minded man that it's putative congressional authors at all events, were actuated in the main by lofty motives. Without doubt they wish Alaska we'll
 Unfortunately, this fact subtracts nothing from the peril the proposed law portends for Alaska and her people. Even the purely commer- cial interests supporting the Lane Curry bill have no feeling of un- kindness toward Alaska and Alas kans. Their chief interest is their own business advantages; and the circumstance that such profit as may accrue to them will rest upon 1 the increased distress of a far-ds- tant subject-people is, unhappily, not inconsistent with the accepted ethi- cal standards of a commercial age.
 Every Alaskan who has gone to the bottom of the matter knows that the passage of this measure will let Alaska in for a political hamstringing; that it will be the death blow. for seven years at least, to Alaska's aspirations for home rule; and that it will double rivet the oppressive bureaucratic policy which has ruined the Terri tory industrially, and driven ma jority of our former white popula- tion into exile
 Probably not member of Con grcss is fully conscious of these facts; and probably not man in Congress but would resign his seat rather than vote for the measure if he knew in advance, as any intelli- gent Alaskan ought to know and most of them do know, the dis. 1 aster it's enactment into law will bring to the people of this Terri tory. Unfortunately, the average member of Congress knows as little of Alaska, her peculiar conditions, l her needs, and her perils as the casual reader of this article whose information was derived in school boy days from the geographics of thirty years ago.
 Even cabinet members. recently { and previously in our very midst as visitors, provoked secret gasps at the evident paucity of their informa- ton touching Alaskan matters they arc charged by law with admins 1 terlng. To all intents and purposes | Alaska is terra incognita to the American congressman and the Washington executives charged with ] responsibility for it's government. Any opposition to the Lane Curry bill implying improper motives in Congress itself, is both silly, be- cause it is untrue, and dangerous. becouse it alienates friendly interest. What is almost certainly true, is that the ane- -Curry hill u,,e ;,troJ,,.o,,

Turkish Woman Novelist
Leads Sex to Freedom,
(By Associated Press)

CONSTANTINOPLE. May - A
striking illustration of the general
emancipation of Turkish women which
has been affected by the war is af-
forded by the designation of Mrs.
Edib Hanem, as minister of education
in Mustapha Kennels cabinet.
Mrs. Hanem is the wife of DR.. Adam
Bey, formerly president of the Turk
ish Red Crescent and until recently
Mustapha KemaI5 minister of health.
She is So years old, the mother of
three children, a devout Mohammedan
and has attained fame as the author
of several strongly pan-lslamic novels.
Shortly after Turkey entered the
war the need for nurses became so
great that women, for the first time
were permitted to accompany the
armies and enter military hospitals as
relief workers. They are said to have
demonstrated remarkable efficiency
in taking care of the wounded, fact
which soon made it possible for Turk
ish women to enter university classes
with men. At the present time, how.
ever, they are still barred from theat
erS and amuSemeHtS of various kinds
except special performances for WON
en- only.
Mrs, Halide Edib Hanem is, per
'haps, the most celebrated pioneer OF
the movement for the higher education
Of Turkish women. She was the first
Turkish girl to graduate from the
American WOman's college here, deS
pite the persistent opposition of for
mer Sultan Abdul Hamid, who forced
her to discontinue her studies many
times.

Dynamiter of War Turns
Genius TO Peace Work
(By Associated Press

ROME, May don Gelasio Ca etani,
a brother of Prince Caetani, the Ameri-
can-trained engineer, who laid the
mine which blew off the top of the
mountain, Col di Lana during the war,
burying hundreds of Austrian soldiers
beneath it, has just dynamited canal
into existence from Lake Caprolace to
the Mediterranean Sea.
The work was undertaken by direc-
ton of the Prince, also known as the
Duke of SermOneta, head of the Caet-
ami family. in the Pontine Marshes,
near the Dukes vast estate of Cister-
ma, forty miles from Rome.
The Pontine Marshes constitute the
swampy forest country which stretch
os between the Roman Campagna and
Terracina, a region which the prince
has labOred for years to reclaim. On
the sea- hore of this strange volcanic
region there are three lakes or la
goons, called Fogliano, Monaco and
Caprolace, communicating with each
other into which at high tide all kinds
of fish find their way, remaining there
to breed and fatten for the Roman
market, to which every day some ten
TO forty hundredWeight are shipped.
