SHERMAN ROGERS IS HERE
 TO STUDY ILLS OF ALASKA

Realizing that there is something radically wrong with Alaska as the result of mismanagement, misunder- standing, transformation or mistak- en theories, or all of them, the Out look Magazine, which itself had a hand in locking up the resources of the Northland to the extent of >giv- ing support to the conservation policy of Clifford Pinchot. has set about learning the real facts con- corning Alaska, and Sherman Rogers IS here to get the desired informa- tion first hand. After he has made thorough investigation of condi- tions in the principal sections of the territory, he will give his views publicity through the pages of the Outlook Magazine And he is making the investigation with the under standing that his views will be print ed just as he writes them. The ed itors of Outlook are anxious to tell the truth about Alaska and they have put 1t up to Sherman Rogers to do the telling, in his own force ful language
 Mir. Rogers, whose rise to fame as writer and orator has been pfe- nominal arrived from the coast on Saturday, aboard the business car of the Alaska Railroad, after leisurely trip from Seattle. He made frequent stops along the way to make closeup study of conditions and he has found that the views of Alaskans and his own are in accord on the question of conservation that there has been too much of 1t for the country's good.
 Mr. Rogers does not believe that it will be possible to throw the ter ritory wide open, as it was before the resources were withdrawn by executive order and congressional restriction; but he believes that conservation. like prohibition, can be made over into a workable safe guard, that will continue to con- serve but without preventing devel- opment.
 Mr. Rogers says that his observa- tions thus far have convinced him that the territory is rich in natural resources, so rich and so vast that there is nothing to fear from an in- vasion of capital. But he says the people of the States, including some in high authority, have an exagger- ated notion about Alaska's riches and are inclined to discuss the op- portunities rather loosely Too many Outsiders have the idea that gold

NO CARN|vALS,
SAYS SHEEHY
Would Aid Firemen Each Year
On Day Set Aside for
That Cause

That no travelling carnivals will
be permitted in the city and that a
day be set aside for the collection OF
funds for firemen. was the promise

appreciate the good work of the
firemen who volunteer their services
and are entitled to every considera-
tion for their good work and not
wishing to impair any financial as
sistance they might derive from these
carnivals; if elected I will promise
to set aside one day in the year
which I will designate as firemen's
day, on which day funds can be col
lected, either by the selling of tags
or a house to house canvass by a
corps of collectors, and if necessary
to make a personal canvass of mer-
chants and guarantee to all fremen
in the city an equal distribution or
this fund, which would amount to
more than the money derived from
carnivals, besides keeping in the
town the money usually taken out
by the carnivals."

freeholder candidates O'Conner and
Flynn, candidate for recorder Hal
lahan and aldermanic candidates

The sensational Woodbridge

Authorities who announced
with a show of confidence upon

with their case today.
One of the Investigators said an

Raymond Schneider, upon whose
accusations Hayes was arrested,
still was held as a material witness
and was being questioned from time
to time in an effort to clear up dis
crepancies in his story as compared
with facts established from other
sources.
Schneider said Hayes had shot
the r,af-7fS-ar opd choir siroax- .rrx a
the appletree on the old Phillips
farm, thinking the pair to be Pearl
Bahmer and her. stepfather, Mich
olas Bahner.
Schneider admitted he himself
was in love with the girl and de-
clared Hayes had acted as an
avenger of wrong Schneider believ-
ed had been done himself by the
girls stepfather.
Hayes denied the story vehement-
ly, hurting a counter accusation that
Schneider had robbed the dead
minister's body of gold watch
and was seeking to divert suspicion
fro mhimself. Schneider charged
that Hayes stole the watch.
Schneider said he could not ac-
count for the cutting of Mrs. Mills
throat and scattering about OF lore

of the minister's cards against the

They fed the scene as soon. as
they discovered that Hayes had shot
the wrong person.
Another discrepancy to which the
authorities were giving much atten-
tion was Schneider's statement that
Hayes did the shooting at about L.

were not unduly anxious to fill that
demand at present prices. Sheet

In response to the trend of Yoko-
