The government be stopped.
Definite Land Program Needed
1t has now become apparent that
the American nation needs q definite
land program to meet the rapidly
growing evil Of land tenantry In tho
best agricultural districts. A de-
pendablc strength of the nation is
still in its agriculture, and we can
not allow the American situation to
drift into absentee landlordism and
tenant farmers without weakening
the national defense. Every great
nation has had to meet this problem
with wise program or suffer the
consequent disorder that results from
the wrongs of abseutee landlordism.
The Federal Land Bank, established
fer the purpose of meeting this
growing meance, has not been rene
dial. 1t merely has enabled man
who owns one farm to mortgage it
and buy another. 1t has added to
the spirit of land speculation with
out helping the class which needed
the remedy-the class which could
not provide so per cent of collateral
with which to secure the loan. In
many mid-Western states the per
centage Of absentee landlordism Is
more than 80 per cent Of the whole,
and it is growing more rapidly at
this hour than at any time before in
the history Of the Republic. To meet
this growing problem, and that COM
panion problem Of comfortable hous-
ing for those who do not own an
abiding place. is one Of the demands
to which craftsmanship should give
clear and remedial attention.
Reservations in World League
1t goes without saying, of course,
that the league of nations will be an
important issue, although it is already
manifest that the interest in this sub
tect has grown languid. The attitude
of the parties on the issue is already
we'll known. We all realize the i'm
portance of American leadership in
the world, but with the enlightened
controversy we have had upon the
subject there has grown constantly the
realization that our best claims to
leadership will depend upon the sue
cess with which we meet here in
America the problems Of free govern
ment and our peculiarly American
civilization.
With singular unity the masses of
our people have come to realize that
whatever form our national league
finally takes, effective reservations
must be contained in it for properly
safeguarding the independence of this
country.

Advance Guard of Suffrage
Emergency Corps Arrires
Dr. Grace Hebbard, of Wyoming, Way to Aid
Fight for Women's Vote in Connecticut, Says
She Wants to Get First Sight of ''Anti'' Here

Dr.. Grace Hebbard. OF Laramie, wyo.
paid no attention to the skyscrapert
when she arrived for the first time or
Broadway last night She expressed ne
desire to see either the Statue Of Lib.
erty or the Zoo. The first thing which
stimulated her curiosity in New York
was the headquarters Of the National
Association Opposed to Woman Suf-
frage.
II never saw an anti-suffragist," she
said last night at the Hotel McAlpin
where she was the first arrival Of the
Suffrage Emergency Corps" on the way
from the West to get woman suffrage
ratified in Connecticut.
"You know out in Wyoming we have
had woman suffrage for fifty years and
there is no such thing an an anti-suf-
frage man in our state--much less a
woman. AS I came from the railroad
station this afternoon l saw a sign that
read 'AntiSuffrage Headquarters.' l
made note of the address, for I want
to go around there and see what those
women are like. l cannot imagine what
they have to say for their point of
view"
DR.. Hebbard said she hoped to make
the Governor of Connecticut realize
how the women of the West felt about
the inevitability of woman suffrage,
and what an honor it would be to his
state to be the thirty sixth state to
ratlfy the Federal amendment.
We hope to persuade Governor Hol-
COMB that there is real emergency
facing the country in the delay in the
Federal amendment" she said. ~ am

state university and l understand the

specified in the state constitution.
approve of conservatism. up to a GER
tain point, but in this case I think the
Governor will be justified in yielding
now to public demand"
DR.. Hebbard is going to visit the
home of her ancestors when she goes
into Connecticut, as her family were
among the Connecticut settlers Of 1886
and supplied the state with two Gov
errors.
The major part of the Emergency
Corps" were late in arriving yester-

Recital in AeOlian Hall

f. Hayward Hunter gave a song re-
cital in Aeolian Hall yesterday after
noon. If we say that at the beginning
OF his entertainment he sang airs by
Handel and Scarlatti, we want the verb
understood in Pickwickian sense-at

presented bY the next national CAM
paign Is to rescue the government
from weak and extravagant hands,
and place 1t again in position to d.
rect the endeavors Of the Republic
along typical American lines.
This does not mean. however, that
the campaign should rest alone upon
carping criticism of the Democratic
party, rich as is the opportunity for
just analysis of that party's highly
organized system of mismanagement.
The Republican party will need to
present to the people constructive
platform which will give definite
promise of leadership in this con-
fused hour of American life.
There will need to be courageous
and just stand upon the growing in
dustrial warfare which has subjected
the public for so many months to the
waste and danger of what the radical
leaders call economic pressure"
This is peculiarly a time in the his
tory of all the political parties when
the American people are expecting a
platform which has not made an eff
fort to bargain for the votes of any
class. The party will need to pledge
itself to program which will give
to labor the benefits which she has
not been able to secure either from
capital or through the methods of
kor
gram will likewise need to foreshadow
protection to the public and to en-
ploying capital. The government will
be obliged to bear its share of re-
sponsibility for the proper safeguard
ing of all three members of the in
dustrial triangle. The American pub.
lie will no longer favor situation
which leaves it defenseless against
the increasing wrongs perpetuated in
the name of industrial warfare.
Profiteering Must Be Curbed
A solution should be found for the
domestic problem which has grown
up in the period Of high imitation,
and which has placed us all at the
mercy of an unbridled era Of prof.
teering.
A wide range Of problems, both
domestic and foreign, embracing for
eign relations. tariffs, high cost of
living, etc, demand the attention of
statesmen. No party may pledge
definite methods with which to solve
all these problems, but it can pledge
careful, constructive and courageous
leadership.
The recklessness with which the
government has expended the colos-
sal revenues taken from the people
during the war period has made it
necessary for the strictest economy
in public expenditures to save us
from bankruptcy, and the party will
disappoint the American people if it
does not provide not only for some
relief through the extension Of war

WHALE IS BUMPED BY
 STEAMER PRINCE JOHN

The sighting of whales on the coast in travelling between Prince Rupert and Vancouver is not un- usual, but passengers on a recent trip of the Prince John southbound came in closer view of one of, the finny monsters than is common.
 The vessel had just passed thru Queen Charlotte sound on a fine afternoon when young whale was seen playing near one of the small islands near the course. Of course, it was was watched, and it con- tinued it's play of jumping complete ly out of the water every minute or two, unheeding the approach of the steamer. As the boat came closer the passengers became quite interested, when suddenly it made another jump out of the water di- rectly before the prov of the steam CT. Evidently seeing the approaching danger, the big fellow swerved to one side. but not without hitting the boat a glancing blow.
 Of course, by that time everyone was at the side of the deck watch ing. but as soon as the vessel passed by the whale was seen to continue his play in the wake, shortly being joined by another of his species.

COAST FISH EXPERT
 SEES DANGER AHEAD

From present indications, judg- ing from the number of spawning salmon in the streams, the outlook for the future supply of fish is very discouraging and it only impresses upon one the immediate need of de- termining upon plan for the main tenance of the salmon supply" said Charles D. Garfield, secretary of the Territorial Fish commission, upon his return to Juneau recently, after inspecting the fish supply in the streams in Stevens bay, Fredericks sound, Rocky pass, Sumner straits, Wrangell narrows and the upper end of Clarence sound.
 '"The streams along the way l found especially devoid of spawning salmon. There was only the sem blance of former runs, and at the mouth of each stream we saw seine boats waiting to get the fish in the creeks after the tide went down.

A SOUTHERNER'S VIEW.

Major Edwin Glass, of Georgia, a veteran of Lees army, says: Amer ican politics is the greatest game on earth. Every presidential election sees different platforms put up by the contending parties, and they are always worthy of study. l am from Georgia and have always voted a straight Democratic ticket, but this year I am going to vote for Harding, because I think he is the man for the job. The Democrats, in my estimation, have not can didate who reflects any credit on the party. I admire the type of men exemplified by the late Theo- dore Roosevelt and the late Ben TilIman. Both were of the rugged, fighting type, beloved by every true American. Although the one was a Republican and the other a Demo- crat, l believe that they honestly and truly admired and loved each other. Harding, in my opinion, is most nearly the type of man to meet the present crisis in the United States, and his running mate. Cool idge, I consider a splendid choi:e for the presidency"

IN DOLLARS AND CENTS.

One reading of the recent raise in railway rates gets only vague idea of what it really means to patrons of the roads when only percentages of advances are given. It is when concrete illustrations in individual cases are stated that the mind grasps the difference between the old and the new rates.
 Statisticians have figured out, says an exchange, that the new rates mean $50 additional expendi- ture per capita to the American public every year. *
 The present high cost of living will be boosted still further to the tune of from s4,5OO, 100000 to ST. OO,OOO,OOO annually.
 The per capita increase to the approximately 1,O0O,OOO,OOO persons who use the railroads will be SAYS annually.
 The freight rate increase per cap- ita will be $9.75.
 Concretely illustrating the differ ences in passenger rates, it is shown that ordinarily the fare from New York to San Francisco, including sleeper charges, is $115.13, plus 6 percent war tax, or $12O.62. Unde, the new rates the fare between these points is $145.07, including sleepers, plus an percent war tax or total of $156.67.
 Pretty generally the people oi the country have accepted the un usual increases without protest, ap parently being willing to accept the railroads argument that it is neces sary in order to meet the increased costs of operation and to enable them to put the transportation o1 the nation on a basis of efficiency The roads are being put to the test If they make good, so much the bet ter for themselves and the public but if they fail private operation and control will again find them selves under heavy fire.

ment in the world. That is because of our extravaganza.
 "How can we deflate with the present price of wages and with the farmers saying, Why should we work 10 or 12 hours a day when those city fellows work six or eight?'
 "I believe in labor-in profit sharing, in dividing. But those who divide the profits should work for them. The business man in a crisis works overtime. Why shouldn't the others?
 Food is the basis of everything, and if we are to deflate we must begin with agriculture.

fish were not running. With the exception of the George T. Myers cannery at karheen, which has made its contract, I would say that the canneries in the district we covered have not over 30 percent of their normal pack.
 "At Karheen, the cannery had packed 35,OOO cases. The Beau Clair Packing company on Sumner straits had only 10000 cases, and the eannery at Shakan had 10000 cases. Both of the canneries at Wrangell were short. The Peters burg Packing company was said to have 45,000 cases. Its normal pack is between 100000 and 125,OO0 cases"

HIGH COST OF GOVERNMENT.

A talk with Charles J. Webb clears the atmosphere in fog bound day of doubt and gloom about the trend either of human society or of business. .~
 "God still rules the universe" he said in statement printed by the Philadelphia Public Ledger, land the world will be better for these growing pains that afflict it now. And the United States will be all the better for this passing episode of asinine government. . ..:
 "The present prosperity of the South has issued from its era of agony and bloodshed.
 You can't defy nature or defect she natural law. You can't defiate prices by strangulation. There is but one way-and that is to make prodution exceed consumption.
 1t is not for the government to read the people a lecture on ex- travagance. To stop the high cost of living we must stop the high cost of government.
 "I'll undertake to run the govern ment on 50 percent of what it now costs, and do it better. I'll pay of the national debt in ten years by savings alone. Any other real busi. ness man could do the same thing.

Reports prepared by the Govern ment show that there were 784 fish traps in operation in Alaskan wa ters this season, which is 28 more than in 1919. Last year the high record up to that time had been reached when 756 were put in op- eration. Of all the traps working this year, less than a hundred were floating traps.
