An Authority Speaks

When Luke denounced the Vol stead act he received lot of anony- nous communications from bigoted towards who called Luke "boozer' and other pet stock names. But when a learned dignified official whose business it is to enforce the law, denounced the Volstead act who is to deny the contention? Ed ward M. Hurley, the United States Commissioner in Cincinnati, is in a position to know whereof he speaks. He is a big man in every way and a competent authority. He tried case after case for the Government and sat in judgment and weighed the law And he is big enough and broad enough to tell the truth Here is his opinion of the Volstead act;
 "The Volstead act is the silliest most ridiculous law ever written and imposed upon lberty-loving people. If the law could be enforces, 50,000

 The United States Navy is mining it's coal in Alaska. Alaskan coal is> said to possess a greater proportion of heat units and to be satisfactory for naval use than any coal mined in the United States. The Government also intends to establish coaling station supply coal to merchant vessels plying between Seattle and the Orient, which will saving of thousands of tons in cargo-carrying capacity on each voyage We may also look to Alaska another of oil when supply out-which, at the present rate of consumption, may happen within a generation-while with reference to another commodity growing constantly more scarce the annual growth of the forests in Alaska would furnish us with proper conservation with perpetual supply of paper and pulp wood In fact, Alaska has unlimited resources for Its gold, its furs it's fisheries only trivial proportion the riches it possesses
 Now that we fully of these resources, and will undoubtedly take every advantage of them what going do fer Alaska? Alaskans urging with much emphasis that the Territory needs ard deserves self government instead of by bureau chiefs at Washington, and they have even proposed that it shall be admitted d Several plans have been suggested. One is that Congress be requested give its consent to the division of Alaska the section north of the Yukon to become the Terri tory North Alaska, and the section south of the Yukon be established the State Alaska. This southern territory, it is argued, has only the and the prospects but the existing population to warrant conferrng statehood upon it. The ad- mission of such state would mean two more Sena- tors. thing, with the possibility a close for the balance of power in the Senate If the region is entitled statehood, however that should not be a serious obstacle.
 This is issue which deserves consideration Alaska has been generally miserpresented and mis- understood For than twenty years after its purchase by the United States, the possibilities of it's wealth realized at all. The American people thought of Alaska a cold desolate country, teeming with reindeer, polar bears and Eskimos place where no business could be developed to ad- vantage. and it the interest the fur trading monopoly keep that msconception alive Now. how ever, il is realized that Alaska is of the richest treasures in Uncle Sans diadem, and that it will eventually have be treated

DAN TRIES TO SHAKE DIR. HORNADAY.

Dan Sutherland is trying to escape the odium
 of his connection with Judge Wickersham's friend
 Dr. Hornaday. At Valdez he declared that he had only wanted to suspend the law providing bounty
 fer killing eagles until investigation might deter
 mine whether not the law resulting in the
 exterminaton of the species. He also declared in
 favor of commercial hunting and marketing of cari-
 bou in the Interior of Alaska-going a good deal further, therefore, than the Sulzer bill which Judge
 Wickersham, then Gov. Strong and Dr. Hornaday succeeded in beating on the ground that 1t would create a "shambles' in the Interior and result in game extermnation.
 Dan Sutherland's excuse for trying to secure the
 suspension of the bounty eagles is that he thought by suspending it would gain the good will Of Dr. Hornaday and other sentimentasts and they would then permit to put bill that would allow the eommercializing of caribou. Very silly, of course, and intended, doubt dose of sooth- ing syrup for the dear voters It would be as eff fectve electric fan in international yacht race on a York August day However, at that it would be difficult to it explanation for the speech Mir Sutherland delivered in the Territorial Senate the eagle bird.

 Polar bears are plentiful in Alaska, but so are children and schools. It is rarely that a child is compelled to miss school because of inclement weather. Can the same be said of North Dakota? The Alaska of Rex Beach and Jack London: of gunmen and dance halls is past in spite of all in the movies to the contrary. When present means of communication and transportation are considered, Alaska is further from New York than St Louis was. hundred years ago She has, fourteen incorporated towns, in each of which you will find the same sort of folks and social life that you enjoy in towns of the same size throughout the country. There a hundred schools in these incorporated towns and districts, anc about sixty-five in other less densely popu- lated sections There are thirteen high schools, and many of the pupils, far from fearing the Winters, have their own dos teams, which they race for sport
 You will find the telegraph wireless cable everywhere and there is only one i'm portant port of thedozen or more that is cut off by ice in Winter. And the erpeope of that city-Nome-who thus cut off for the Winter period from civilization enjoy them selves far more than do folks in many moro favored communities
 At the present time the Government is building a Federal railroad into the interior Secretary Payne who inspected the work while in the vicinity of the Matanuska coal mines, reports that about 4,000 men are em ployed in construction, and about mile of railroad is being completed per day.
 
 The country is filling up with the right sort of pioneers-the sort that built up tho Great West If President Hill of the Great Northern would loan Secretary Payne the colonization expert who helped colonZe Washington for his father, Alaska's popula- tion would increase by leaps and bounds, fer he would seek homcsteaders from among the sturdy people who not afraid of little cold weather-the Swedes and Norwegians.

class of the seminary, trained by the competent director of the department, Miss Alice LeSueur Harsh.
 For amateurs to present one of Sardou's comedies was an ambitious experiment. but the result exceeded the most sanguine expectations.
 Miss Ehogee Reeves played the part of Prosper, the young cosmopolite, with wonderful insight and abandon. Miss Thelma Dudley was altogether charm ing as Susanne, a role that Barrymore has graced. Miss Margaret Hudson, as the eccentric naturalist, was prime fa- vcrite with the audience. Mrs. Lucille In- gram made a most dignified and impress sive Baron, and showed admirable voice control Miss Mildred Murray was de- lightful Aristotle, and Miss Orryille Gates lovely Louise. Miss Katherine Rule, as Pauline, the flippant little maid, more than sustained her reputation. The pub lie remembers her as an adorable Topsey.
 The other characters were taken by
 Miss Lucille Cooper Miss Johnnie T. Shugart, Miss Mary Ward, Miss Hazel Moore and Miss Louise Hill, and showed credtable work
 Among the other players presented by Miss Harsh we might mention long | list
