TERRITORIAL cONsTABULARY

Governor Thomas Riggs, Jr., of Alaska, is a strong advocate of the establishment of a territorial cOnsta- bulary, based somewhat on the plan of the Mounted Police system of Canada. There is much to be said in favor of this idea. Just because our neighbor-Canada- adopted the Mounted Police System, is no ad-i i equate reason why Alaska should not also employ it. And yet we have heard this argument used against it's :adoption-a very narrow view to take, we should say.
 Every old time Klondiker knows about the Mounted Police of the| Northwest territory. They compos- ed picked body of men. They were fine specimens of physical manhood, strong, self-reliant and brave. They performed more than ordinary police duties. They covered territory, in the performance of their duties. They kept law and order; they performed deeds of mercy; they made the coun- try comparatively safe for musher to pass through.
 On the other side of the line-in Alaska-the situation is entirely diff terent. To our knowledge there have been a half dozen foul murders con- nitted along the Fairbanks trail, and in not a. single instance has the guilty party been brought to justice In the Cook Inlet country and Iliamna re- gfons, there have been another half dozen murders committed and the guilty, if alive, are still at large, free to roam the wide world at will
 In Alaska, outside of incorporated towns, the people rely for protection apon the United States Marshals and their deputies. Now, as everybody knows, deputy marshal is not a pol Ice man, and disdains to do police duty. A deputy marshal will serve papers and warrants of arrest, and the like. In other words, after a crime is committed, he will seek, armed with a warrant of arrest, to capture the offender, but the search is superfi- eia1 and limited, because of a lack o funds.
 And after the suspect leaves the specific region where the deputy marshal operates, the pursuit is eith- ,er ended, or turned over to another sdeputy in another district, and so on. This is not to imply that the deputy :: ss::marshals are incompetent or fail to perform their duties Not at all It :. is the fault of the system, not of the eficers
 Then, again, the marshals and de- puties hold their offices during the tenure of a political administration. Hence, when an administration chang es, the marshals and deputies likewise change. And the new marshals and deputies have no wish to complete work willed to them by their predeces- CTS. Hence, many criminal matters are peremptorily dropped when a pol itical change is made.
 A territorial constabulary to be effective, should be non-political system Tenure of office should be based upon perormance of duty, rath- CT than upon a republican or demo- cratic success at the polls

be reached as to the candidates for the territorial legislature and other offices in the North. %n:....
 It matters not whether the conven- tion system is the better or not. It matters not whether the Alaska prim- ary law is a fact or a fizzle. It is the law and as such should be upheld to the letter by the two great parties. And the holding of any "caucus' con- vention savers much of the same old method of the backroom selection of candidates. For success to be at tained at the next election other meth ods must be pursued by either of the greater parties.-Ketchikan ChronicaI.

SAYS CHRISTIANITY
BRINGS DEMOCRACY
New World Political Move
ments Due to Religion, Says
InterchurCh Leader.

The revolutionary movements which
have upset one king after another in
the last few years are attributable
largely to the power of the Christian
religion, in the belief of H. F. La
Flamme, one of the national leaders
of the Interchurch World Movement.
Mr. LaFlamme, who, as leader in
the Laymen's Missionary Movement,
was one of the original .protagonists
of the Interchurch World Movement,
said in an address at Spokane recent
ly:
"A Revolutionary Force"
II think that the revolutionary
movement all over the world, of which
the war was one phase is largely the
product of Christianity. The mission
airy carries with him the spirit of
democracy as well as the spirit Of
good will. AS such he is necessarily
a revolutionary force. The overthrow
of the dynasty in China in 1912 can
be attributed very directly to the in
fluence of the Christian religion with
it's emphasis on the supremacy of per-
sonality, personal responsibility and
liberty. Approximately the same may
be said of the revolutions in Europe.
Missions Aid World Peace.

education and prosperity. l attended

at which the late Charles w. Fair
lnks spoke" he said. ''Mr. Fair
banks had just returned from trip
around the world and he said, 4 have
visited the Christian missions in many
foreign lands, and I believe that an
American missionary station is worth
more than an American battleship as
an agency toward world peace Ad-
miral Mahan, the famous author Of
Sea Power, said to me when l had
repeated Mr.. Fairbanks statement,
that he would go further and say that
an American mission was worth any
number of battleships."

REMODELING POULTRY HOUSE
Many Stuffy Old Structures Can Be
Rebuilt With Little Trouble
Cost Is Small.

Many farms have old style, closed
up poultry houses with poor light and
ventilation; also old sheds and other
buildings of little use for other pur-
poses that can be remodeled or built
over with little difficulty into salts
factory poultry houses, according to
the United States department of ag-
riculture. r-z
A building Of that kind usually can
be made over for less than one-half
the cost of constructing q new one,
and If the work is we'll done should
give just as good results. Further
more. the work performed in remodel
ing the building serves as a good
poultry club demonstration in poultry
house construction.

HOW TUBERCULOSIS SPREADS
Different Means by Which MaIady May
Be introduced Into Healthy Herd
OF Dairy Cows.

prepared by the United States Depart,
ment Of Agriculture)
Tuberculosis may be introduced into
healthy herd by any of the following
means:
Addition Of an animal that is In
fected with the disease. Animals
should be purchased from herds known
to be free from tuberculosis or from
herds under supervision for the eradi-
cation Of the disease.
Feeding calves with milk or other
dairy products from tuberculous cows.
This frequently occurs where the own
er purchases mixed skim milk from
the creamery and feeds it to his calves
without first making it safe by boiling
or pasteurization.
Careless showing of cattle at fairs
and exhibitions. Reports have indi-
Gated that numerous herds have be-
come infected through mingling with
diseased cattle at shows or by occu-
plying infected premises
Shipment of animals in cars which
have recently carried diseased cattle
and which have not been disinfected
properly
Use of community pastures IN which
tuberculous cattle are allowed to
Craze.
In most cases the outward appear
ance of the animal bears no relation
to the degree of infection. The dis
ease frequently develops SO slowly that
IN some cases it may be months, or
even longer, before any symptoms are
shown; therefore be on the safe side
and have your herd tested

ST. PAUL, Aug. 1e-Despite the big
lead Mike .Kelley's Saints are sporting
in the American association race local
fans today We're ready to turn out for
a few thrills at Lexington park this
afternoon.
The reason was the coming OF the
scrappy Hoosiers, who are back In sec
ond place in the league chase as a re-
suit OF trimming the Minneapolis Millers
twice yesterday, making it four out OF
ave wins in the series over the river. {,
Manager Hendricks stated today that
his squad was ready for anything and
predicted that with good pitching his
team surely would get an even break
or better with. the chesty Saints.
At any rate Kelley's crew is expect
ing some real battles in the series open
ing today because the Indians are rated
next to the Saints by all fans in this
city, and that is some rating when the
strength Of the locals is considered.
Whitehouse was the probable choice
for Indianapolis mound duty today, al
though there was a possibility OF Petty
being used.
The series will extend through Wednes-
day, mid week double header being
scheduled for the windup day.
