Henry FOrd's Third Party.
(New York Post. )


 A strange argument is put forward by the head of the Dearborn Ford for President Club. Henry Ford, according to this official, is popular that a third party will have to be formed to nominate him for President This will make the politicians laugh. They know that anybody who get the nomination from of the old parties is not going to indulge in the elborate futty of a third party. If man is such good vote getter that he win masses Of from both parties he does not have to ask his friends to organize third party for him. Like Gcv Smith, he of the old party tickets and smashes party lines. The very announcement that third party is to be forced to nominate MT. Ford is confession that he cannot hope to win the Republican or the Democratic nomination. Com ing simultaneously with the latest figures from Golfers poll, which show Ford leading the field by wider margin than ever this action at Dearborn is interesting commentary the significance of straw votes.
 What is in the minds of the Dearborn ent husass is shown by their reference to letter from the Citizens Non-Partisan League of Akron O. This letter states that the League is composed of 2,764 Republicans and 1886 Democrats and that can vass discoses that 95 per cent of them favor Ford for President With these figures as a sprin gboard the leader of the Dearborn Ford for President Club jumps to the conclusion that Ford at the head of a third party would sweep the country But before MT. Ford gives up his house in Detroit let another canvass be made of the Akron organization. Let its members be asked whether in MT. Ford is nominated by third party they will desert the nominee of the party with which they are at present affiliated and vote for Mir. Ford.
 There was named Theodore Roosevelt who always ran on Republican ticket but polled a good many Democratic votes On occasion he was defeated for the Republican nomination for the Presidency and ran third ticket He knew it was desperate chance and privately said so The result confirmed ha words. Yet he had the advan- considerable part of the Republican Party to begin with. MT. Ford would have such advantage

Ultimate Statehood for Alaska
(New York World ]

President Harding's. suggestion of ultimate State hood for Alaska is given the force of than remote possibility by his accompanying statement Panhandle and large block of the connecting south estern part State; this region contains easily 90 per cent of the white population and of the developed resources
 If Alaska is eventually to be carved up into States of which it is large enough terrorally to furnish bakers dozen, doubt the logical place to begin is with the Panhandle.
 Yet it Is profitable to recall that by the census Of 1920 the entire Territory contained only ,SS9 inhabitants Of whom 27,SSS were white, and the population has been rapidly shrinking. The white third as large the population of Nevada And as respects the Presidents theory that Statehood
 would be the greatest single impetus we could possibly give to the right kind of development IS Nevada Il convincing example of how this kind or political impetus stimulates development?
 The potential promise is no doubt fattering to the patriotic pride of Alaskans. To gain two Sena- tcrs, Representative and elective judiciary be- sides all the official machinery of a State Govern ment for the population equivalent of New York Assembly district would be auring. Yet will not questions of cost dctract from the perfect measure Of satisfaction? Is Alaska prepared to pay the ex- pense Of supporting the superior dignity of State hood?
 The prospect is that will be viewed from numerous angles, not only it concerns resdcn Is of the Territory but also it would affect parry divisions in Congress.

NEW YORK WORLD AND EARLY STATE
 HOOD FOR ALASKA.

Commenting upon the declaration of President Harding that "in few years we can well set off the Panhandle and large block of the connecting southeastern part of Alaskal a State; this region now contains casily 90 per cent of the white popula- tion and of the developed resources the New York World declares that it is profitable to recall het by the of 1920 the entire Territory contained only 54,SS9 iuhabiatnts E and the population has been rapidly shrinking
 The World is in error so far that part of the Territory referred by President Harding is cernrd The population Southeastern Alsaka gain ed between 1910 and 1920 and it continues to gain. Not only that, but the developed resources have be- greater and greater.
 With the utilization of the timber resources of Southeastern Alaska this section of the Territory will begin gaining in population with great rapdity. and the producing resources increasing with tre- mendous momentum.
 about the practicablty of the Presidents pronounce ment by asking
 Will the question of cost
 detract from the perfect measure of sats-
 faction? Is Alaska prepared pay the ex-
 pense of supporting the superior dignity of
 Statehood?
 The revenues of this section of Alaska from taxa ton are greater than.- those of many of the States at the time of their admssion-and the rate CT taxation is not 90 high the distribution so general here as in those States al that other time large percentage of the derived from taxation in this section of Alaska is used 10 bear in part the cost of government and development in portions of the Territory not included in the area designated by President Harding as suitable for Statehood
 If the conservation poliey-thc reservation svs tem--that is in vogue in Alaska Is to remain with us, II the Federal Government continue to con trol so much of the of Alaska the people here would be willing to pay good price for rep- lesentation in the Federal Government, and that dcubtss, Is what was in President Harding's mind when he declared for Statehood for Southeastern Alaska at early date.

TURN HAIR DARK
 WITH SAGE TEA
If Mixed With Sulphur It Darkens So Naturally Nobody
 Can Tell


 The old-tIme mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked and faded hair Is grand mothers recipe, and folks are again using it to keep their hair a good, even color, which Is quite sensible, as we are living in an age when a youthful appearance is of the great est advantage.
 Nowadays though, we don't have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and mussy mixing at home All drug stores sell the readyto-use product, improved by the addition of other ingredients, called "Wyeth s Sage and Sulphur Compound" It is very popular because nobody can discover 1t has been applied. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush with it and draw this through your nair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair dis appears. but what delights the la dies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound, is that, besides beauti- fully darkening the hair after a few applications, 1t also produces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which is 50 attractive. -(Advertisement.
