ROGERS PLAN INTERESTING.

The Empire agrees with Sherman Rogers that the
odopion of road construction program and the APP
propraticn sufficient funds guarantee the build
ing OF roads and trails in Alaska on wholesale scale
is the means by which the greatest advancement
could be made toward the development OF the Tor

roads trails is of paramount Importance tran

isative acts asked for aids for the Territory
II Congress were say that it would do but one
thing Alaska of the many asked, the construction
of roads and trails would be worth than every
thing else combined. We believe there is general
agreement on this within the Territory.
Mr.. Rogers put road needs first The second es-
sentia thing he pointed out being vital IN any
development is the Capitalization IN ALASKA of all
Federal administrative authority. The idea he has
suggested is strikingly new Fundamentally but
it does contain novel features He finds necessity

sessions TO facilitate action all matters requiring

If you are going long distance
it pays to take the fast mail, but
the girl who takes the fast male
never gets very far on the road to
happiness.
The minimum wage is what every
wife thinks her husband gets.
The JOY of motoring to most peo-
pie is riding in the finest late model
car and being able to tell every
body else to take their dust.
Our idea of fixing up this world
would be to make it as easy to find
happiness as it is to find trouble.
Married women may be demand
ing their rights, but an old maid
would be content if only she could
get one of the "lefts."
When a husband begins to treat
his wife coldly, leave it to her to
make it hot for him.
A man used to keep his revolver
under lock and key to keep the chill
dren from getting hold of it. Now,
though there are no children, he
keeps it under double lock and key
to keep his wife from getting reck-
less with it.
Some wives think a husbands sal
airy should be divided equally be-
tween them, half for her to spend
on herself and half for him to spend
ON her.
A man thinks the barber is doing
a Jesse James act when he soaks
him a couple of dollars for trim
ming him up and making him look
pretty, but you never hear a woman
growing about the hairdresser gyp-
ing her for $50 or $50 for a per-
anent wave that only lasts couple
of months.

SMALL ACQUITTED.

How much higher in public esteem will all gov
eminent be held that jury has declared
Governor Small Of Illinois innocent OF the charge
OF misuse Of public funds?
VIII the people, whole have a greater respect
for government will they look upon this verdict
and shrug their shoulders with a new sense OF
hopelessness?
This is really the important matter-not whether
Small goes free to Jail
When the governor OF a great state goes TO trial
a felony. 1t be taken indication of
either most outrageous state of public sentiment
which could elect such a terrible
political conspiracy which amounts to anarchy.
The charge against Small was that he loaned out
the peoples money to influential borrowers and
profted above the legal rate OF two percent. That
the people anything which they might have had.
was not questioned Simmered down, the charge
against this custodian of funds that he got the
for himself instead OF permitting the bankers
the take 1t for the job OF handling
state monies
The fact that jury took but little hour
to set him free, in the face of showing that he
had not followed the routine of the law. might
suggest that the jury looked at the substantial
justice the matter rather than techncalites and
decided that from the public viewpoint. It matters
little whether the state or the bankers
of the state made the profit.
Judicialy innocent the accusation made by Small
and his friends that he was indicted and forced
to trial by political conspiracy because he had
favored and public enterprises that stepped
the toes OF the powerful and cut of of
their privileges becomes important.
Fighting for the peoples rights has been
a very safe of sport. It always has had its
penalties of unpopularity with the privileged few
1t has always been the hard road and seldom has
it met with any amount of public gratitude. Those
who have had the courage 20 persist have. for the
most Fart been forced to content themselves with
clear consciences.
Tut when there is added the danger Of being
sent prison for unfolding popular rights, II Is
time for a more searching inquiry than that by
this jury.
II Small innocent, and jury says he was
then his charge takes grave aspect
There is no escape from the conclusion that
either Small or the men who prosecuted him should
be in the penentiary. One the other
dynamting public confidence in government The
jury Small free. Another jury should have its
chance at those who responsible for bringing
dscredit upon all public officials by charges now
pronounced groundless.
