In the first place there is no branch the Sanity

present. Many Of them, perhaps most of them,
were members of the Sanitay League.
The Sanity League of America specifically declares
that it is not trying to procure repeal of the
Eighteenth Amendment. 1t is simply trying to bring
about modification CT the Volstead Act to per-
NIT the manufacture and of light wines and beer.

Be Not Backward.

Yesterday, last Saturday there completed
the Moose Pass section which will add materially to
The resources and income of this section. The COM
pensaon of the purchase depends upon the outcome
of the prospecting work which will be at in

The method of procedure in the negotiations is
which should be followed by all prospectors who
have quartz other holdings for the market-let
capital ascertain just what is in the claim.
The greatest drawback to mining development in
the interior has been the getrich-quick spirit which
has mbued the prospector when he has located a
claim. Outlines it has occurred that representatives
of capital have become interested in discoveries and
offered to option the property for the purpose of de-
veopment with the right of purchase. The embryo
millionaire of the interior, has not SEEM will not
see the justice of the proposition but demands an
outright cash purchase placing valuation high
that capital is driven off by the RIGHTEOUSNESS of the
demand. Many holdings of undoubted value still

procedure and will remain until proper course
is adopted by the prospector in his relations with
capital willing to do right The with the claims
would be whole lot better off to accept option
payment with which they could do further prospect
ing until it ascertained if their holdings were
valuable, than to make unreasonable demand.
The option course is the right and should
be recognized by those who have mining property on
the market.

STAY WITH ALASKA.

The letter of Arthur Marriott to friend in Ket-
chikan, printed in the Ketchkan Chronicle and re-
produced in The Empire, telling of conditions in
Siberia. is tale that should be told in all the mining
countries. The lesson it conveys is stay with your
job If you have one, and if you have none and live
in Alaska look for close home and stay here.
Conditions may not be good in the United States
as would like them, and could wish they were
even better than they in Alaska but all the news
We have from the far countries show that they are
beetr in America than elsewhere and better in Alaska
than in other parts of America.
The other day the Fairbanks News Miner noted
the receipt of letter from former Alaskan who
had visited his cid home in Serbia He had gone
with great expectations that his money would go far
there He writes that he is coming back and he
adds, when once foot in the United States
it will be never to leave the country again.
The United States is still by a long way the best
country in the world and Alaska is the chosen field
in the United States for those who know the country
and have friends and acquaintances in it,.

Old Guard politicians of both parties have two spe-
cial obstacles to encounter in their schemes to over
throw the direct primary and return to the hand
picked and convention plan of elections These
organized labor and the farmer The other day the
National Farmers Union, which is strongest in Kan
and Nebraska issued warning to its membership
Of the attack preparing against the primary, in the
course of its circular letter the subject stating:
1T is objected by those opposed to the direct pri-
maries that such system results in the election OF
radicals to high Offices The objection is entirely with
(for that what they when they talk of radi-
is the sole business of the people themselves If our
Government is of the people, by the people, and for
the people, is manifest that the voters have right
to elect the Presidency the Congress of the United
States, or to any other office whomsoever they
please"
The primary has been in operation now for about
years in good part of the country and it cannot
be said that Congress- State Legsla lures and the Gov
eminent generally have become radcazed. From the
Administration at Washington down the Government

under Roosevelt and lis following In Kansas have
had rather unusually conservative Legisla
lures the legislation in Congress in the last six
eight years has not been tainted with radicalism,
while there has been notable advance in construc-
tive work.
Before abolshng the primary the country will
want to look into the indictment which the machine
politicians draw against it little more closely, and
also to consider the larger effects of the primary.
