News FAIRBANKS : Notes
Peter SteiL, Correspondent

The Cordova and Fairbanks ball teams met in spirited contest at the local park yesterday afternoon and the Cordovans carried of the honors, winning the game by a score of to 0. The game was called at the end of the sixth inning on account of darkness. The Fairbanks team had three men on bases when darkness prevented further play.

The visitors will leave for the coast to- morrow.

THE BONUS.

The soldier bonus bill passed
some weeks ago by the House has
been discarded by the Senate fin
ance committee and practically an
entirely new bill will be presented.
The Senate committee seems TO be
taking the cN->crvicc men TO its
confidence and it is cndcavoring
to find out just what they want.
This may mean that they get moth
ing. Senator Smoot has suggested
an insurance plan. The House
never expected its bill to pass the
Senate. 1t was not prepared with
that end in view. Now he Senate
is making Il similar attempt 10 pre-
pare Il bill which ii has no hope Of
passing. In 1917 who dreamed
that the War and our soldiers in
tcrcSts would reach the point of
bidding for votes?

AN HONEST MAN,

We will all have to pass it to
Senator Borah of the State OF
Idaho for being honest and true
to his convictions. If there were
more men and women in our.
country in both public and private
life as true to principle and con-
viction as he, this would be 4
better and cleaner nation. He
fought the Four Pact treaty cvolv-
cd at the disarmament conference
because he said it WAS the same
thing as the League of Nations.
In answer to 4 recent telegram
sent him by post of the American
Legion Of Idaho, he made the fol
lowing statements:
Il observe in your telegram the
threat which YOU implicitly make
as to future political punishment. 1t
was wholly unnecessary for YOU TO
make this threat. 1t reflected no
credit upon you. and it has had
no effect whatever upon me. When
you come TO that fight in which
You propose to intlict punishment,
YOU will doubtless be able to say
many things in the way of cen
sure upon my public record.
Il haven't much respect for the
man who buys office, even though
he pays for it with his own money.
But the most Shiny creature which
disgraccs American politics is the
man who buys office by paying for
IL with appropriations out of the
public treasury and charges his
Henal political obligations to the
Taxpayers"
One may not agree with Senator
Borah, politically, but he has the
convictions of a real man and by
reason of this he deserves the re-
spect of the American people. We
need more such men and women.
