Politics have never particularly either benefited or injured Alaska any more than natural disin- tegration and dry rot becomes more apparent with increasing years, and this condition will never be changed so long as Alaska is gov erncd four thousand miles from Alaska.
 The foregoing is not pessimism-only lack of confidence based on experience and obser vation. We have lived in cot by the way side and watched the passing of six admins trations and noted their policies toward Alaska and they have recalled to our mind the hyper bole of the Irishman who said, "One man is just as good as another and d-d sight bet ter" but in their policies toward Alaska one administration has been just as bad as another and a whole lot worse-Stroller's Weekly, Juneau.

PLEDGE SHOULD BE FULFILLED

The Rcpubh, can national platform of 1920 promised legislation for the suppression of the national crime of lynching. That promise should at an ly date be fulfilled. The spirit of lawessness it growing throughout the coun- try and crimes of violence by bodies of men who presume to take the law in their hands are multiplying. The organization of the KIu Klux Klan, dedicated to the task of taking the enforcement of law out of the hands of or ganiZed government and turning it over to ir- responsible bands of masked regulators, oper- 'atmg under cover of darkness is rapidly pro. ceeding Texas alone has had more than a score of reported manifestations of mob law during the past few weeks. In the absence of some measure forcing local communities to maintain law and order a reign of lawcssness may ensue throughout the country the consc- Iquences of which will be more serious tbap IanyOne now magnes
 Representative Brown, of Wisconsin, has in troduced an anti-lynching measure worthy of consideration. It provides that whenever per. son or property shall be destroyed by reason ot the act of any mob or riot the city, county, town, or parish wherein the act of violence takes place shall be liable to the owner of the destroyed or injured property, or to the persou who has suffered injury-in case of dcath-to his legal representatives.
 Such law would undoubtedly have the .etfect of causing communities to give more serious consideration to the character of men elected to office exercising police power, and 1t would discourage participation in while ere .atng opposition to organized Iawlessness
 This or some similar measure should be placed upon the federal statute books as an I' 'Nprcsson of national condemnation of the
 ynching and mob law evil, and as means of reducing the humber of crimes of violence b, 'aWlcss l,>:mb!ages.
