Hood River Ore, July l9.--If
William Jennings Bryan deems such
a move advisable, and if Bryan ac-
cepts the nomination for president
on the prohibition ticket, the Rev.
William A. Sunday stands ready to
accept the nomination for vice pres

Lincoln, Neb., July t9.-The pro-

fight to finish in the coming presi-

G. Calderwood, vice chairman of the
party's national committee, and the
various delegates who have arrived
for the national convention which
will open Wednesday.
Every delegate here declares that {
presidential ticket will be placed in ths
field and they are unanimous in the de
claration that William ]. Bryan anc
"Rilly" Sunday will head the ticket. The
question whether Bryan will consent tc
head the party's ticket is uppernfost il

opinion is expressed that if he refuses
to accept the nomination it will be forced
upon him.
"If Mr. Bryan wants the nomination
he can have it BY nodding his head
said Caldcrwood Monday, and if he
does not want it we probably shall force
it on him His recent statement in The
Commoner that a man must accept such

upon by us as tantamount to declara-

Washington, July i9.-Apprehen-
sion as to the safety of foreigners
In China resulting from fighting
between the two factions was les
sened Monday by advices to the
legation at Peking.
General Wang, commanding for
ces in Peking. the advices said. has
taken measures to protect Ameri-
cans and other foreigners while re-
ports to the legation from Tien
Tsin and other points in the zone
of activities Indicate disposition
by all leaders TO respect foreign
colonies.
There are in the capital and at
Tien Tsin approximately 600 Amer
lean civilians. The reinforced Am
erlcan military strength in Peking
Is 425 marines. which, added to the
allied force, including that
of Japan, will, it Is believed. be
sufficient to reduce disorder. 1t is
assumed that the only danger for
eigners might incur would be due to
their wandering beyond the boun-
darieS of the foreign concessions
and then only at the hands of scat
tered groups.
1t was explained unofficiaIIy that
action by any of the powers repre-
sented is unlikely so long as the
factions confine themselves to op-
erations that do not endanger for
eigners, and leave open the road
from Peking through Tien Tsin to
the coast. The greater part of the
foreign military forces, including
that of the United States, is now
patroIIing that route.

Pursuant to making any further re- stricrions on fishing in Alaskan waters the United States Bureau of Fishe a.s held a hearing at the Chamber of Commerce assembly rooms to obtai,. the views of all interested parties. The controversial question involved is tha. of the Copper River fishing, the con- tention being that the Indians living Lack from the mouth of the river are not given a fair chance when the can hery men catch the bulk of the fish at the mouth of the river.
 The leading canning firms of the Nrth, including the Canoe Pass Can ming Company, Graham-Haynes Com pany. and the Northwestern Fisheries Company. were represented at the hearing. Arguments for and agains. the proposed restrictions on fishing were advanced by Paul Schwartz oi the Alaska Bureau of Education; w. I. Lopp, of the Alaska Bureau
 cation; c. D. Garfield and A. J. Adams of the Alaska Territorial Fish Com mission, and John N. Cobb, director of the college of fisheries, University of Washington. The results of the hear ing will be forwarded to the Commits sioner of Fisheries, Washington, D. C., who will probably render a decision within the next three weeks.

They point out that necessary fly it will be a long time before the development board can be created by legislative enactment, and that in the meantime such an inter-departmentaj eommittee as this can do much to pre- vent overlapping of authority and er- TOTS such as have characterized past administrations.

ALASKAN NAMED 10
 HIGH POSITION
Geofse A. Parks of Juneau Appi0nted Assistant Secretary of the
 Interior.

The appointment of real Alas kan, George A. Parks, as assistant secretary of the interior and as chairman of the interdepartmental Alaska committee by Secretary John Barton Payne, and the naming of the rest of the committee was an- nounced last Monday.

 Mr. Parks is now in Washington, having left Juneau last month to meet Secretary Payne at the former city.
 The objects of the interdspartmen- tai committee are. briefly, to cut much of the departmental red tape and have men at the head of the various bureaus who are right on the ground and who can take short cuts to settle matters pertaining to Alaska, or, as the recommendations formally read: "(D That an inter departmental Alaska committee be organized, to be composed of repre- sentatives of all government de- partments concerned in Alaska af- fairs. Also the governor of Alaska to be made an ex-offico member of the committee. t2) That an ad- ditional assistant secretary of the in- tenor be appointed who shall be chairman of the committee and shall devote all his time to Alaska affairs.
 ts) That the chairman of the com mitsee shall spend a large part of bis time in Alaska and thus by per senal: contact becomi intimately ac- .qaainted with Alaska conditions"
 George A. Parks is at the present time chief of the Field Division of thc' General Land Office, having been appointed to that office in 1919 to succeed G. R. Arundel. He was born in Colorado S5 years ago and graduated from the Colorado School of Mines. In 1908 he was appoint ed mineral inspector of the General Land office, he having come North several years prior to that time.

He made a considerable

He made 8 considerable reputa- tion as the governments representa- tive at the inspection of the famous Cunningham coal claims a number If years ago. During his service as mineral inspector his duties carried him to evry section of the Terri tory. He is said to know Alaska perhaps better than any other man in the North.
 Shortly after the late war started Mir. Parks applied for permission to enter the officers training corps and it was granted. He was at Gimp Meade for preliminary instruc. ton and then was assigned to Camp shei;osn, near Montgomery, Ala bama, as instructor. He remained, there until the armistice was signed and was discharged with the rank captain.
 Having been notified that he hal been favorably considered for ap- pointment to the position just creat- ed which will perhaps develop into tho most important office in Alaska when he left Juneau he said il accept only with the understanding that he be allowed to spend most of h:s time in the North and that the committee which he is to head would have definite authority to act in matters demanding attention.
 Following the announcement Mon day of the personnel of the Alaska interdeparmental committee, it has been indicated that the army is ready to expand the work of the Alaska road commission and carry it along on moro pretentious lines, with the expenditure of a million dollars a year for ten years, to give all of the territory a network of roads and
 
 trails. This proposed expansion has been talked of and has been outline in the press of the Territory for sev- eral months. Douglas Island News)

The American Red Cross, North west Division, announces that a Div ision field representative has been sp- pointed for Alaska. Miss Agnes R.. Holland, a Red Cross nurse who has formerly lived in Alaska and whose previous training and experience seem to peculiarly fit her for field work in the Territory, began her work as field representative on November 1st. Miss Holland will act in two capacities in Alaska: first as general field worker promoting any Red Cross activity in which the chapters are interested and advising the chapters on their possible peace. time programs; and secondly, she will directly act as an instructo, nu;se for those chapters which desire to pus on classes in Home Hygiene and Home Care of the sick.
 Wi He the Division is meeting Miss Hollands travelling expenses and her salary, we feel that those chapters that utilize Miss Holland as instructor nu,sc should pay the Division some tl.ire for these services. These pay r.erts may be on tne basis of $30.O0 per week. She will probably do in st uction work anywhere from two to tour weeks in give, chapter.

the intuitive answer, is to say that
it travels through a medium, and
so we invent the "ether," simply as
the medium which carries the light.
But if there is such a medium in
space-and light travels through it
in every direction at the same speed
1t would seem as if here, at last, in
this undisturbed ether we had our
frame of reference which we could
use as our basis for the measure
ment of all other motions.
The Proof
If this be true, we can detect
whether this world of ours is moving
through the ether or not by sending
light signals through equal distances
in different directions and seeing
whether they come back to US at the
same interval of time.
To see how the thing works, let US
suppose first that we have an OBJ
