A DAY OF MOURNING

Friday, August 10th will be a day of mourning in the United States and its territories. On this day the nor tai remains of our late President, War Ten Gamamiel Harding, will be con signed to their last resting place in the little cemetery at Marion, where the greater part of his lite's work was performed
 Never since the death of Abraham Lincoln, has so universal a spirit of mourning been entered into by a na- tion. Businesses will be closed and even train and street car service will cease for a time.
 That Warren G. Harding was a great man is attested by his common tastes and democratic mingling with his people. No other president, with the possible exception of Theodore Roosevelt, possessed this loveable trait. No other president will be so universally and sincerely mOurned as our late visitor and guest.
 Less than month ago he walked the streets of Seward, vibrant with life, and with a kindly word of greet ing for all with whom he came in con- tact. Today the body lies in state in the capitol rotunda, venerated and revered by thousands of humble wor- shippers at the shrine of greatness. The spirit has winged it's way to join the other immortals who have passed before.

Ballaine, a former Sew ard resident, said that under the present freight rates development of Alaska is impossible, and the only possible solution of the problem and one which will have to be adopted fin ally in the end is the operation of government steamship lines between Seattle and other Pacific coast ports and Alaska.

 MT. Ballaine declared that Alaska was being slowly throttled by the big interests and can see no remedy save government control.

SENATE VOTES TO SUSPEND FROM
 OFFICE 36 ID 1
FIGHT FOR LAW AND ORDER ENDS DISASTROUSLY FOR
 OKLAHOMA CHAMPION

OKLAHOMA CITY, Oct. 24.-Gov- ernor Walton was suspended from of fee today when the State Senate by vote of thirtysiX to one adopted resolution temporarily relieving him from his official duties, following the submission by the lower house of a bill of impeachment against him. The impeachment bill charged the execu- tive with entering into corrupt agreements with Dr. A. E. Davenport, State health commissioner.
 A history of the case reveals a strange state of affairs. Following an appeal from several counties in the State for relief from Ku Klux Klan activities, Gov. Walton ordered all sheriffs and peace officers to appre- bend those responsible for the out rages. At Tulsa a number of convic- tions were made, following a confes- sion by an alleged member of the Klan. The governor then called out the militia and declared martial law in the affected counties. Threats were. freely made by members of the Klan to impeach the governor and remove him from office, the boast being made that the Klan had control of both houses. Today's vote marks the be- ginning of long legal battle with a probability of government forces en- tering into the battle.

RHEN|SH REPUBLIC
 AS FAR AWAY TODAY
 AS WAS YESTERDAY

S-en>a"
 PARIS, Oct. 26-A Rhineland re- public today seems as far away as ever for the Separationists. Their recent conquests do not appear to have sufficient force to hold the fields they conquer. The Loyalists in the presence of the complete apathy of the general public seem to have no diff culty in regaining control, so that when a balance is struck the Separa- lists are in much the same situation today as they were yesterday. The movement now apparently is confront ed by the opposition of an indepen- dent republic, engineering by Burgo- meister Adenauer, of Cologne, and fostered by the Reich which seeks to divert the Separatists coup in it's fa- vor. Practically all business has come to a standstill and revolutions appear to be the popular pastime.

INDIANS AT TYONic ARE
 FORCED TO FLEE FOR LIVES

The furious storm and high tide Of two weeks ago swept completely over the native village of Tyonic, forcing the 112 inhabitants to flee up the riv- CT in boats with their household ef- fleets. All outhouses and caches were obliterated and the orphanage, which is on high ground on the sand spit was surrounded by water several feet deep.
 The natives have moved back to the village but the beach is 15 feet nearer the orphanage than before the storm, the water undermining the banks. Old residents say this is the worst storm ever seen in this district.
 The sandspit after the storm was covered with Jumps of coal which were torn from the beds across Turn again Arm and carried over by the storm. One large piece weighing 15O pounds was deposited in front of the kitchen door of one of the residences, and logs were strewn on the beach, solving the winters fuel problem

JAPANESE CONSUL = RETURNS THANKS
 7O SE|NARD|TES

Mr. Harry Kawabe, of the Seward Steam Laundry, received a letter on the last boat from Chinchi Ohashi Japanese consul at Seattle, express ing his warm thanks to the people of Seward for their contributions to the earthquake sufferers. The letter fol- lows:
 Imperial Japanese Consulate, Central
 Building, Seattle, Oct g, 1923.
 MT. Sotaro Kawabe, Seward, Alaska.
 Dear Sir: I have your letter of September 20, informing me of the very profound sympathies shown by our friendly Americans over there and of the generous contributions made by them into the Japanese Re lief Fund of the American Red Cross.
 We nearly got a little bit discour- aged when we came to know about the astonishing amount of. economical loss suffered by Japan and about the unspeakable miserable conditions Of lUS JdpduSSS pCoplC, bul, pSibS M couraged by the warm sympathy and substantial assistance rendered by the American people the Japanese people under the leadership of Count Yama- moto, Premier of Japan, and the strongest man in Japan, are now we'll on foot in res bring the pre-disaster conditions and they are all determined to make Japan more beautiful than it used to be.
 Japan has been a friend to Amer ica invariably and America also has been the best friend of Japan, but on account of the unceasing endeavor of a few jingoists in both countries our relations have appeared a little bit strained some times. We have come to know, however, by the almost un- exampled expression of sympathy and sincerity of the American people at this time, what is the real attitude of Americans toward the Japanese.
 Every Japanese abroad or at home are appreciating the sympathy of America, and I am happy to note the present disaster has done much more than the Washington conference in promoting the friendship of two coun- tries. Alaska may be the nearest spot in the American continent to Japan so that the sympathy of the people over there must be appreciat- ed first of all by the Japanese govern ment.
 T wish you to extend my thanks to those American friends who subscrib- l ed a considerable amount Of money ! into the Japanese Relief Fund.
 Yours very truly,
 CHINCHI OHASHI, Japanese Consul"
