IN MEMoRiAM

In sad but loving memory of our dear
daughter, Bertha K. Paisley, who died
one year ago, April 3rd, 1920:
A precious one from us has gone
A voice we loved is stilled
A place is vacant in our home,
Which never can be filled.
God in His wisdom has recalled
The boon His love has given
And though her body slumbers here,
Her soul is safe in heaven.
Sadly missed by her mother and father

Iie is man of vison and he has a knack of maxim and holding friends It is said that there are fey men in Washngtin who have SC many nhuentia' friends he has
 However there two reasons why Col.

 The Empire very often in the last eight year has said that it did not care at all anything abou the political affiliations of who hold public office, However, notwithstanding that the editor oi The Empire is Democrat. believe President Hard ing, when he appoints Governor, should appoint : Republican, Col Jones is a Demoerat-not partisa Democrat, and scientist than a politician but Democrat A Democrat in the office of Gov ernor, holding appointment from President who elected as Republican, would meet with annoyance and be subject to criticisms that would confron: Republican, The Goyernorship is like an or diary administrative office like a judicial office The Governor should be a narrow partisan party man He should be Governor for all the peopl and not part of them. But he will have to dea Wlth matters that concern party politics and h should belong to the same party that to whic belongs the National Administration
 The question of political utilization is the only possible excuse for chansing Governors at this time II We are To have Democrat for Governor, tho present Chief Executive should be retained Ther, are many reasons why Gov Riggs should be retained until the expiration of his term of office to on, reason why another Democrat should be named. II has made an excellent Governor. He knows the Ter rtory from long residence in it, he has had tht experience of three years of very valuable and highly patriotic service in the office The very reason which impelled Gov Riggs to tender his resignation is u, reason why his successor should be a Republican

NO SPECIAL INTEREST IN FISHERIES.

Neither 1t nor anyone connde ed with n has single dollar invested in the fisheries industry. And The Empire owes nothing to the tannery interests except square deal and fair treatment The Empire gets very little business direciy from any one connected with the canneres The most it has received from the cannery people are through those of them who subscribers for the paper and they get it at the same rate that others pay In all including subscriptions and ad- vertising and job printing, it's reheips from the can nery business for the eight years of it's existence have fallen far short of an average of $500 year On the other hand people engaged in the cannery busi- hess, some of them because The Empire has persist ently urged Territorial control of the fisheries in dustry, and of them for reasons known to them selves, have contributed many thousands of dollar tC maintain opposition The Empire in this field. At one time a combination of cannefymen set out raise $50.000. Ito put The Empire out of business This movement stopped by afew-of the eannery- men who have confidence in the people of flask; and btiieve they would be fair if given their right control ha fisheries industry
