TRIFLING WITH JUSTICE

THE ATTEMPT to secure the release of the young murderess whose bold crime shocked the entire Pa cifc Coast, including Alaska, few years ago when it was found she had poisoned poor woman be- disgusting spectacle, to say the least.
 The poisoner evaded the death penalty or a life in prison through insanity plea. She was then placed in the insane hospital and afterwards removed to the state prison to relieve her of the distress of being amnog those actually insane. And now her attorney and friends are seeking her release on the grounds that she is 'cured''
 If the law may be thus evaded there will be an incentive to all murderers to adopt similar course.
 Ruth Garrison deliberately poisoned her vic tim against whom she had no grievance except that she wanted all of the affections of man with whom she was mlawfully infatuated. She invited the msuspecting wife to have luncheon with her in a department store cafe and there, under the cloak of friendship, placed deadly drug in the woman s food. She sat by and saw her victim writhng in the agony of death. The circumstances showed her guilt beyond doubt. She ought to have been hanged. But stated, she escaped through the insanity dodge.
 The law ought not to fail again in this case. Ruth Garrison would be menace to society if re- leased. She should remain in prison and be for gotten!

OUR SINKING FLEET

WITH EVERY appeal for an appropriation call ing for funds for larger and better navy, it looks insane to the average person to take fine battle ship out and sink her beneath the waves. If no other use could have been made of the vessel the teral could have been junked and used in the man. niscture of other >i: ps claimed necessary by the Secretary of the Navy. America adopt no half way measures. The country should either have or not have first class navy. What we do have should be preserved and not destroyed to pander to pacfsts. The Washington would have been wei come addition to our fleet.

ELEVEN ASSAYS SHOW FINE
 AVERAGE VALUE OF ORE

An average of $92O was received by George Howe, jr., on II assays made from the ore from his and his associates property, located at Mile 4312. The tests were made recent ly, by various laboratories and run all the way from soc to SAT. The latter assay came from high grade samples sent to the Treadwell peo- ple, who signified in a letter re- ceived some time ago, they were thinking seriously of sending one of their experts for an examination of the ground.

Those political forecasters who are predicting contest four years hence between McAdoo and Al Smith for the Democratic nomination appear to have small concept of the full force of the recent balloting.
 Neither McAdoo Smith are possible candi- dates They would destroy each other from the outset. Should one be nominated the other s friends would be less disposed to assist the vic tor than they were disposed to aid John W. Davis
 If the Democratic party has any gumption in 1928 it will forget the rivals at Madison Square Garden last summer and pick candidate who can unite his party. And that is a big contract as long as McAdoo and Smith continue to regard themselves as of presidential size.

n { v LIS TING
IDEA BEING
ADOPTED
Now in Use in About Half Of
Cities Where Realtors
Operate.

According to Clarence #. Dono-
hoe, chairman Of the appraisal COM
mittee of the Washington Real
Estate Board and member Of the
firm Of John F. Donohoe and Sons,
and r. p. Witty, builder and
realtor, who attended the recent
realtors convention at Augusta.
Ga, the Multiple Listing" idea
came in for quite an argument at
the meeting. Mr.. Donohoe says cit
was brought out at the convention
that this listing system is being
adoped in about half the cities in
which realtors operate. The plan
is to get an exclusive on a prop
erty on a period of from three to
six months. toswork on 1t for forty
eight hours in your own office and
then, through the real estate board.
broadcast 1t among all9 the realtors
in your city. A small listing COM
mission is paid the real estate
board, possibly up to s per cent,
for handling the listing" Mr.. Dom
oboe further states that in his
opinion ut would be well to give
every person coming In to list prop
erty, to understand that this sys-
tenn would be adopted. No house
or property of any kind should be
offered for sale without first in
specting it."
"It was generally admitted
among all brokers at the conven-
tion," says Mr.. Donohoe. that the
listing broker should receive only
one.third of the commission and
the broker making the sale should
receive two-thirds, as 1t is far easier
to get a property listed than it Is
to sell It,"
