London, Oct. SO.-Andrew Bonar
Law, for seven months prime minister
of Great Britain, died in his modest
London home at 8 o'clock this morn
ing.
Five months ago-on May 20-he
resigned the premiership because OF
a throat malady which for a long
time had troubled him. Even then he
was reluctant to admit that his career
was finished and he retained his seat
in the House of Commons, where he
since had made two or three ap-
pearances.
Ten days ago Mr.. Bonar Law re-
turned from Brighton after Il sojourn
of several weeks. His physicians is
sued a statement TO the effect that he
had contracted a severe chill, but the
public did not suspect that the end
was so near until it read in this
mornings newspapers that he had de-
veloped septic pneumonia and con
dition that gave rise to considerable
anxiety, but soon after extras ap-
peared giving the news OF his death.
Daughter at Bedside.
The ex-premier's daughter, his only
near relative left in England. was with
him during the last days of his i'll
ness. His two sons were killed IN
the World War, a sorrow from which
Mr.. Bonar Law never recovered.

No official statement as to the

an inference from the fact that DR..

since been his physician. is one OF
the foremost cancer specialists.

 It is somewhat disappointing that the negotiation between England, France and Germany drags But that is better than to have 1t abruptly broken off. In the delay there encouraging ele- ments. France has done nothing rash The English Government has not laid down peremptory terms. Germany is visibly anxious for adjustment It ought not to be beyond the wit of the statesmen involved to find way
 The very gravity of the situation impose certain restraint. Prime Minister Baldwin declines to answer questions in the House of Commons at present M. Poincare is maintaining eloquent si- lence But 1t will be said that the British Cabinet IS meeting every day sometimes twice day. Is not that sign of crisis? Perhaps; yet we must remember the shrewd remark of old English ob- server that he was most afraid in troublous times, when the cabinet did not Then the danger was that some reckless minister might do something foolish on his own motion.

 Secretary Of Commerce Hoover, speaking An chorage, said that Alaska would be developed in great rushes, like Oklahoma and California, it would some day develop into four five great States
 Feur or five great States" is happy expression because il conveys clearer idea of the dimensions and wealth of Alaska than could be conveyed by means of figures
 Our Northern Territory began with a great rush, but though the discovery of gold as a power- iul magnet Tor attracting population, the of progress since those days has been compara lively slew, and not for lack of natural resources but be- cause of bad political management. There was too much interference of some kinds and not enough of others.
 The politicians and bureaucrats at Washington erected barriers against development of natural re- sources by private enterprise but there was not the same restraint of those exploiting the people and the government.
 It was decidedly wise of President Harding to take Secretary Hoover with him on the tour for there is no ether man in the Cabinet so well fitted to md out just what is wrong with Alaska and what should be done to remedy the evil. He is busi- ness man and knows that Alaskan development is nanny business and not government undertaking put al the same time his face is against monopo- isue practices that in restraint private enter prise.

Labor Capitalists.
(Baltimore Sun)


 That Is an interesting story which comes from Charleston W. V, of a strike said to have been ordered in mine owned by stock company headed by officials of the Brotherhood of Locomotive En- gineers with the accompanying revelation that the mine is open shop Just how much inconsistency, if any. the part of the brotherhood officials is involved in this at titude of theirs will doubtless be brought light. The brotherhood itself is closed-shop organization But however that may be, the incident is significant in showing how when labor ventures into the field of capitalism it finds itself confronted with the same difficulties with which its enemy, the capitalists, have had to contend. This ought make for better understanding and greater clarity.
 At time when labor is assuming capitalistic enterprises a greater scale than before with it's banks and it's cooperative stores factories this fact may be of great importance
