PERRY HERN

Perry Hern of Skagway has filed for representative in the Lower House. MT. Hern is perhaps not we'll known throughout South eastern Alaska and enters this race under a heavy handicap. But we have known him for long time; he will not betray the people if they should elect him. He comes duly prepared, worthy, and well-qualified
 We have known him to be fear less citizen of Alaska. He has been many years a resident of Skagway where he has conducted his business as half owner of the Skagway Drug Company.
 Some people call him "Bolshe vist," but we have known him to be a progressive Republican with real desire to help the common people. That is what makes him a "Bolshe- vist" to some people.
 His enemies are the Canadian Pa cific Railroad, the Steamship, and the White Pass Railroad, and all their henchnen. Howard Ashley is against

 Of course, I could be mistaken as others have been. But I will not respond to an encore. In the last campaign, 1 supported and was re- sponsible for the election of B. M. Polly to the legislature. I thought he was a man of the people. l found out that he was for himself. He has his reward-taX collector for the territory at $25O per month and expenses. But we will have no more of this descendant of Judas Iscariot if we can help it. The laboring men were betrayed by Polly for he climb ed to prosperity by standing on the shoulders of those who looked to him for justice and fair play.
 The best phrase that Woodrow Wilson ever invented was "Pitiless Publicity" That is the way I would like to boss elections. My entire political creed can be summed up in two sentences, "Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free," and the other one, Blessed is he who sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not"

him. These make a good recom- mendation for Perry.
 He will support any bill looking to a more complete form of Terri torial government, for example, one similar to the Controller Bill of the last legislature; fair fishery legisla- ton; and square deal to laborer and capitalist alike, for example, a respectable Workmen's Compensa- tion Act in place of the shameful act which we now have and which is supported by the Understandable ner Corporation of Juneau lawyers and their ticket.
 He has the support of Dan Suth- erland, and is entitled to the full support of all fishermen and their friends.

CHARLES B, FERGUSON

Charlie Ferguson is an old timer, a real pioneer. He hales from Craig and has the enthusiastic support of the fishermen and citizens of that district, especially of those who have known him best
 He has given the matter of fisher ies his most careful consideration and he has definite ideas about conser- vation. During the famous fisheries hearing before. Congress in January of 1921, he testified along with Bishop Rowe and William L. Paul. Ferguson and Paul were the only two real honest-to- goodness fisher men that ever appeared before a committee of Congress for the pur- pose of helping to conserve the fish AND the population of Alaska.
 Charlie believes thoroughly in Home Rule for Alaska. He is a thorough going American Citizen who believes in the Rule by the Majority at all times.
 Citizens who have the welfare of this country at heart will make no mistake in voting for Charlie Fer guson.

So- Called Paul Ticket

In announcing the candidacy of w. D. Grant, of Wrangell, for the legislature, the Juneau Empire said that he was the fourth member of the "so-called Paul ticket" This re- quires plain statement from me.
 There is no "Paul ticket" in the field. There is not a single man who is under any sort of an obligation to me. w. D. Grant runs on his own record as a legislator and as a man. Since I am entirely familiar with this record, am supporting his candi- dacy to the best of my ability. But aside from knowing his record, I have no other means of knowing what he will do in the next legisla- ture.
 The same thing is true of other men who are running for the legisla ture I meet them; I talk to them about public questions; I inquire about them from people who claim to know them. And because be- lieve that each such person will be absolutely independent, honest and will vote for the Peoples interest as each sees it, l intend to support that person. Perhaps some of these would just as soon that I would not sup port him. I don't know, and don't care.
 It is my privilege to support any body 1 please In this campaign, I intend to support F. J. Hunt, of ketchikan, for Senator, as against J. H. Davies of ketchikan because Hunt has proven that he is For the People and Davies has proven by his own record as a member of the Territorial Fish Commission that he is Against the People.
 I intend to support w. D. Grant, of Wrangell, Perry Hern, of Skag- way, Chas. R. Ferguson, of Craig, for the same reason. Each of these men stands four-square to the wind, unafraid, incorruptable. Not single man of them has asked me for sup port, nor made me any promises. But I am willing to stake my life on what each man would do if elected. He would reason the proposition thru, consult his conscience, and vote For the People. Not a single man of them would switch merely because he may have had his feet under the governors table.
 None of these men is attached to

DUESSELDORF. Germany, Febru-
airy 1.-The owr; erssof mines in the
Essen and Bocham regions have de-

this decision is likely to provoke dis

wages will be ;prGportionately re-

The mine owners give as their rea-
son that the cars furnished by the al

the mines have BEEN allotted all the
cars demanded.
According to the officials. the Herne

The German railway officials, on
the other hand. contend that the al

In blocking the Zines of the Ruhr
railway system with too much rolling
stock. Moreover, they say. the reich
has furnished the administration with
10000 cars more than has been re-
turned, and this cannot continue
without reducing the efficiency of the

Horse Getting Rarer
on Streets Of Paris;
May Soon Be Extinct

By the Associated Press.
PARIS. February 1.-The horse
soon is likely to become extinct
In Paris. Ten years ago there
were nearly 100000 horses on the
streets of the capital. The first
thing that struck the ear of the
foreign visitor as he emerged
from his train in those days was
the tinkle Of the cow bell attached
to the neck of the cab horse. Now
there Is neither bell nor cab horse.
Forty thousand old horses are
working in Paris but they are
mostly employed in pulling trucks
or delivery wagons. During the
past ten years autos have increas-
ed threefold notwithstanding the
heavy taxation from which horse
drawn vehicles are exempt and the
ever rising cost of the gas and
oil. In few years 1t Is probable
horses will be seen only on the
tracks in France.

A Potsdam youth, the son of an

Already the stunt press Is raising

1t Is unfortunate at this moment
that attention is directed to the
American proposal to modernize thir-

the fact, observes:

BETHLEN TO- FIGHT DUEL
WITH HUNGARIAN DEPUTY
Premier to Meet. Alleged Defamer
on Field Of Honor-Circum-
stances Unusual.

By the Associated Press.
BUDAPEST. February 2.-Premier
Bethlen and the Dro-Hapsburg leader,
Deputy Stephan Rakovsky, are to
meet on the field of honor, following
an unusual series of circumstances.
About two months ago the premier
sent his seconds to Rakovsky, chal-
longing him to "A duel for personal
defamatory statements made in the
national assembly. Rakovsky refused
satisfaction on the ground that the
premier had not settled an affair with
Col. Pronay and had lost the
privilege of man of honor"
A council of honor was formed,
however, and found that Bethlen had
kept the regulations as man of
honor" and was therefore capable of
giving and asking for satisfaction at
arms.
Duelling is forbidden under the
law, but 1t Is customary In cases
where government ministers fight for
the head Of the state to use his power
of amnesty.
