A great many people believe that the reelection Of President Harding depends upon whether or not third or independent party shall appear in the ganization behind it. It be admitted that there are good many thinss upon which to hang such a beliet While those who supporting the Presi- dent profess to be confident of in 1924 and point to the circumstance that Republicans held the House of Representatives by a majority larger than sthl elected in the middle of President McKin- leys first term, it should be remembered that they held the House because the party for different thing in different States. If counted only as Re- , pnblfcans those who arc pleased with the Harding Administration if would not have majority in the next Congress. If there had been no Progressiye,, or 'lnsurgent Republicans running for Congress anywhere in the country the opposition would have probably would have carried the Senate In the days eff Mckinley there only one brand of Repub- Iica1iism.

THE SEAL SKIN MEMORIAL.

The memorial introduced by Senator Brown de- cnrng the seal skins of the PrbiIof Islands to con stute an Alaskan urging that they be sold in the open market to the highest bidder while in the salt state instead of after tanning, dyeing, etc. and that the profits be turned into the Territorial Treasury is directed toward worthy purpose. The recitation that the contract with St Louis firm for the treatment of the skins is monopostic etc. is rather far-fetched, and similar charges made else where have been strenuously denied by officials at Washington. IL would not weaken the memorial if that were cut out, and it might hasten the ac- ceptance of the sensible suggestions made The Elm pire is convinced that the purposes of the memorial are sound and right and ought to be adopted by tho GoYprnment

IS PRINCE RUPERT BECOMING TIRED OF
 BEING MARKET FOR AMERICAN FISH?

There has been good deal of discussion over the eforts of Ketehkan business and others to get legisaticn that would prevent American fish mar keted and prepared fer rail shipment at Prince Rupert coming back into the United States duty free The Ketehikan people have asked that Alaskan fish destined for American markets in the East be shipped from an American port, and, if shipped through Canada that il be bonded at the American port. The people of Prince Rupert have opposed this proposed legisation and brought influence to 'bear to permit the marketing of such fish their town and it's shipment from there the Canadian railway into the United States.
 Notwithstanding that everything has thus far gone exactly as Prince Rupert has seemed want comes the Prince Rupert News and complains that American fishermen getting too many privileges al that port. It says:
 The American fishermen, of them
 at any rate, got all the benefits of this port
 and give nothing in return. They given
 practically all the privileges here that Can
 adians get and besides that they get about
 two cents pound more for their fish than
 Canadian boats and they get
 their cheeks they make off for American
 port to spend their money This condition
 of affairs cannot continue. We do not mind
 cooperating. We willing to give and
 take but il cannot be all side. Can
 adian boats are being discrimnated against
 without any corresponding advantage. Those
 American boats that sell their catches here
 and take away every dollar they receive will
 find that while Canadians long suffering
 little slow. perhaps and friendly and
 willing to do business at all times, yet there
 is limit and that limit is very near being
 reached just
 It is to the advantage American fish
 ermen to sell their catches here and 1t is to
 the advantage of Canadians encourage this At .the same time cannot sit idly
 by and see cur own fishing vessels put out
 of business just for the advantage of the Amercan boats, nor can give the Ameri-
 can fishing boats all the advantage of a
 Canadian port without getting qud pro quo. It will be for Canadian statesmen
 to consider the situation eraefully and take
 such steps as are considered necessary to protect Canadian interests.

 In Chancellor Cuno's recent speech he deplored the fact that Germany had further alienated world sympathy by her maladroit Ruhr policy. The Reich accumulated between 1000 900 900 and 900 900 900 of gold by selling paper marks to oreduous foreign specuators.
