The success which has attended the introduction and propagation of herds of reindeer in Alaska points the way to the profitable utilization of the immense tracts ot otherwise unproductive lands of Arctic and sub. Arctic Canada. There are millions ot acres in Yu- kon, and much more in Mackenzie River and beyond, eminently suited to this purpose, and these so-called barren lands" could be made to yield an unlimited supply of food, and to add enormously to the leather goods industries of our land. There is no kind of winter clothing which for lightness and warmth can hold candle to the hair.tanned rein- deer skin. The Eskimos of the coast hold them in great esteem, both on account ot their extreme lightness, and cold excluding quail ities, but also for their beauty. It may be remembered some of the airmen returning from Nome were clad in such skins, and they would prove a great boon for the fliers in the low temperatures of high alti- tudes.
 Many of the Siberian and Alas kan reindeer are piebald and the hair has almost the quality of fur, and will wear two or three times as long as the hair-tanned caribou skins, as the hair of the latter is coarse and brittle and sheds quickly.
 Tentative efforts are being tried by the Government in the region about Hudson's Bay, but the rapid increase of the Alaskan herds would seem to warrant much further ex- tension of the industry.
 The Eskimos, who are naturally an ambitious people, could be use- fully and congenially employed in the care and extension of the herds, and might fill up considerable areas of the great uninhabited regions between the provinces and the Arc- tic.
 It is proposed to capture a large number of young caribou bulls to improve the breed of the domestic herds. The converse might also be applied with benefit. Il num- Der of domestic bulls could be lib- erated with the wild herds of se- lected region, 1t would work for a great improvement, both in the quality of meat, and in the suita- bility of skins for clothing.
 Many regions once overrun with caribou, are now known to have few or none, and the Native food supply is precarlous, and the im- port of "white mans grub and clothes" has done more than any other one thing to lower the stam- ina of the Native populations.
 This is subject about which the Government should make jealous inquiry, and seek to encourage it against the time when the explora- tion of oil and other mineral re- sources shall greatly increase the population of the lands of the North. - WAiiehorsc .Star.

 Montgomery. August 20.-tspecialV Montgomery received reports today that several women of Mobile had an' nounced that they would present thems selves for registration before tht county registrar at once, although the woman suffrage amendment will not be operative until President WilsoI issues a proclamation declaring ths amendment a part of the constItutlot of the United States. Attorneys A the capitol pointed out that the regis~ trar would have no authority to regis ter any women until the proclamation is issued and that even there IS somt doubt of the registrars authority

land who look to the chief campaign orators speeches for Inspiration for names to call the enemy will be dis quieted. Where will they get their ammunitionf There were no names in the speech There were no pop ular filings; no appeals to prejudice.
 Governor Cox, having got off his formal speech of acceptance. an- nounced his ''strai ght jatket' was off, and forthwith called his rival the trained animal of the senatorial ring tied to his front porch by his master He had called the republican candidate the leader of the reactionaries in Ohio who had pronounced the workmen's compensation law of that state rev olution.
 Mir Harding replied with a dignifed disquisition on the legislative func- tions in government. For MT. Hard ing's address was a reply to his rival and evidently to any one who had fol- lowed the latter's attacks or took eognizance of his rivals speeches.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1920-08-21

what this statement suggests, namely: that Mir. Harding, if elected, would per- init the United States Senate to have something to say about the policies of the United States. It was that the re-
 publican candidates election would mean new upset of our institutions. producing in place of executive domi nation. senatorial domination, that the elder statesmen of the Senate would be Harding's advisers, and thus vir- tually control the presidency. It is only fair to say that one sees no evidence of the sena toria1 ring here in Marion. The candidates chief ad- visers are not the elder statesmen, but four men, none of whom is wearing the toga. They are the chairman of the
 national committee, MT. Hays; former senator, John W. Weeks. whom rumor
 places in the cabinet if Harding is elected Dewey Hills and Harry M
 Daugherty.
 Senator Harding's speech does not
 raise an issue, for Cox himself declares for restoration of the legislative branch to it's former place. And it does not definitely recognize an issue as raised
 by the democratic candidate. The re- publican campaign is inspired from
 Marion proceeds on the theory that there is no occasion to pay much at
 tentlon to Governor COX. The bellef IS
 that the country means to elect a re- publican President and all that the re- Fpublican candidate has to do is to say things from time to time which will strengthen the country in it's deter
 imitation.
 To say that we must get back to
 constitutional form of government is believed to be one of those things. To
 say with dignity and without that exhibition of ego which recent candi- dates have retarded as highly prof itable in votes is regarded as wise poli-
 tics. It also accords with the instincts of the candidate.
 Hence yesterdays speech.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1920-08-21
NEAREST TO RECOGNITION

The nearest the speaker came to recognizing that some one was seek ing the presidency beside himself was when he declared of Ohio's reforms. claimed by Cox as his own:
 Much is said from time to time con corning the progressive progress of the state of Ohio, and very frequently credit has been unduly claimed by the executive who happened to be in power at the time the reforms were registered. As mere matter of justice. the fact ought to be stated that most of these reforms have come through the leadership of house and senate. and in many instances they have been wrought through the party in power, which was of opposite political per. suasion from that of the executive who has claimed for himself the great CT part of the credit
 For the rest. Governor Cox might as well not have existed. The senator de- voted himself to his favorite idea that the government of the United States will be better. stabler and more compe- tent if the importance of the legislative branch and its independence of the exc cutive are more fuisy recognized.

this eda Members of the Ohio legls- lature. past and present. came to Marion to listen to the candidate.
 It was appropriate to tell them how useful thing legislators are and how much of the credit claimed for them selves by executives really belongs to legislatures Some Of the men who gath cred were in the Ohio legislature with Harding when he got his first experi- ence of public life.
 The meeting gave clue to Harding So far as he has been a public man he has been Legislator. His early expert ence of public life was in the Ohio legis- latue. His more recent experience has been in the United States Senate He has never been an executive. His sym rathy is with legislators, who, in recent wears, have been the political 'submerg- ed tenth"
 Nine of our recent presidents Wilson. Roosevelt or Taft-has been legislator. You have to go back No Mckinley to find legislator. During these recent sresidencies. legislatures have been free ing themselves of their machines, adopt Ing cloture rules. fitIing themselves to transact business, and now iaey save spokesman.
 Mir. Harding exclaims:
 "In cartoon. in solemn editorial. in many utt.rances on the platform it has Teen suggested that in case of renub- poses\to permit the ssnats io have some say in determining the policy of govern ment.
