GOOD NEWS FOR LA Toilette

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20.-Senator
La Toilette, Independent candidate
for president, apparently had, been
relieved today of the likelihood OF
being required partly to realign his
forces by the statement In New YORK
last night of Warren S. Stone, head
of the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers, denying that he had re-
signed as treasurer of campaign
funds solicited from labor organiza-
tions and their members.
Reports that Mr.. Stone was pre-
pairing to relinquish the task, as
signed him in the independent or
ganization, were accompanied by In
timations of differences, and some
talk of a split, but the latter was de-
nyed on all sides.

THE GA[|LEE
LOST IN FIRE
OFF OIL DOCK
N. Y. Customs Boat Catches
on Fire While Getting
Gas Supply
CREW IS NOT INJURED
Unable to Sink Craft to Save
it, Second Explosion
Wrecks 1t

The rum chaser Galilee, of the
New York customs Office and IN
charge of Customs inspector Rankin,
was blown to pieces as a result OF
two explosions following a fire off
the Texas Oil company dock, in this
city, yesterday afternoon.
1t is understood that the boat built
by the government for customs work
had experienced some engine trouble
yesterday afternoon and after re-
ceiving an examination, proceeded to
the Texas company dock tank Tor
gasoline. Two tanks and a drum on
the boat were loaded, and the start
from the dock was made.
Bystanders heard the motor slow
up and then backfire, setting the
craft ablaze. Fed by the gasoline
on the floor of rthe boat. the fire
gained great headway and Inspector
Rankin and his two assistants were
soon forced to give up their battle to
extinguish the flames. The aft deck
of the craft was the first ablaze and
Immediately the boat was taken to
the dock and tied up, so that the
fire could be fought with extinguish-
ers.
The equipment on the rum chaser
was placed on the dock and when
the fire continued to spread. the
boat was cut loose again. In an
effort to save the craft from complete
destruction the. men in charge
planned to hsoot hole in the side
of 1t, so that it would sink, but
this too was without avail as the
guns failed to give the desired result.
Cut loose again the boat dr.fted
out and soon the drum loaded with
gasoline exploded, and this was fol-
lowed by the explosion of one OF
the two tanks. The second explosion
wrecked the chaser.
When the fire first started, the
Texas company called police head
quarters and notified Lieutenant
John e. Morris. The lieutenant in
turn notified the Washington Hose
tS Chemical company, but the fire
fighters were unable to lend any
assistance. Several small boats
helped in the fight on the fire.
The Galilee has been working in
different sections. in an effort TO
break up the rum running from the
notorious rum fleet.

in First Address Since
Coolidge Notification

LOCUST VALLEY, N. Y. Aug.
20.-John w. Davis remained at his
home here today SO as to give more
of his attention to tne subject mat
ter of the message he Is to deliver

gust 26 and to study matters of

tion submitted to him by those of

didate Is to deliver at Sea Girt, New
Jersey, Friday. IS completed. 1t VIII

delivered his acceptance address
and for that reason IS regarded by
many as one of the most important
Mr.. Davis will deliver during the
campaign.
Those friends to whom he has dis
closed the text declare that 1t Is an
even stronger effort than that at
Clarksburg on the occasion of the
notification. 1t will be delivered at
the national guard camp near Sea
Girt and the New Jersey leaders
who are arranging for the affair say
that the Democrats of the state Will
be gathered in force.
When Mr.. Davis accepted the In
vitation of Governor Silzer to visit
what has come to be known as the
little White House" on the New Jer-
sey coast, he expected to speak only
briefly before the state Democratic
committee. Party leaders in the
state decided, however, to make the
nominees visit a real occasion. They
arranged for a mass meeting and
sent word to Mr.. Davis that he
would be expected to "speak right
out in meeting"

removed from the safe.
The store had Just opened for the
day and no customers were present.
The robbery was accomplished in less
than five minutes. The robbers then
jumped in their machine and drove
off through the cross streets of the
south end. A policeman who gave
chase in aother car lost them in the
maze of streets.
The store employees could furnish
the police with only meager descrip-
tions of the men, all of whom they

pride in settling the most difficult cases for Every little," and if they can get out of paying anything at all, they do it.
 The present workmen's compensa- tion act was drawn by the attorneys of the Alaska Juneau and the Gug- genheim companies. It is the rot tenest piece of legislation ever put on the lawbooks of any state or ter ritory. It is not compensation act. It is a law whereby the companies are guaranteed that they will never have to pay more than certain small sums of money for injuries or death to their workmen. The leaders of the Native Americans with other pro- gressives are struggling to change this and have been trying to pass a law like the compensation act of the United States, which has been ap- proved by the American Federation of Labor Legislation. The opposi- tion has come again from the big mines and canneries acting through their attorneys H. L. Faulkner and R. E. Robertson of Juneau, with oth CTS.
 The last primaries will show you that Indians and white fishermen voted for the same candidates, men pledged to work for their interests as resident Alaskans. Who will be hurt if the Native Americans were not in Politics? The laboring man of course. This is the wish of the small minority who have been in control.

INDIANS MUST NOT
 DOMINATE ALASKA"

 person has yet said to me privately that there is any danger of Indian domination whatever that term i'm plies.
 Every person has informed me that the so-called Indian question is not the real issue. The real issue is that the Native Americans are throwing their political strength on the side of progressive government, and the "better element" who have controlled and profited by Alaska politics are losing control. These politicians have absolutely no issue with which to oppose the leaders who are direct ing the Native Americans and there fore the cry is raised of "1ndian dom- ination.
 It is said that I vote the Indians in mass" I will admit that they largely follow my advice, but that is so only because these people have known me since my childhood; they have watched almost every hour of my life; they have tested me to the utmost; and they know that 1 have never betrayed them; but that 1 have a sincere desire to lift them to bet ter things. Many a young boy and girl has received the impulse to go on with their education because of my example.
 But not a single person can say I have ever tried to help Indians at the expense of anybody else. 1 have tried to help them by helping all. In the matter of fisheries, l would make it possible for all fisher men to make a decent and honest living by abolishing the traps. In the matter of schools, I hold that the State is responsible for the edu- cation of all it's children, and that the State must make provision for all children. I would not sacrifice any race or any class in order that certain race or class might profit bv getting more than it's share of the tax money.
 The phrase "One for all and all for one" has quite a different mean ing to me than the use which cer- tam men put It CO uuIlhS Illo A0'0' campaign. It means to me that my children have no right whatever to climb to competence by treading on more unfortunate children. It means to me that if my children go to the public school and I accept the bene- fits of the public's money, that l have no right to say who shall sit next to my children.
 We have tackled the labor prob lem. Everybody knows that when man is hurt, he or his heirs have very little chance to get square deal from the big mines or canner- ies hecause these biz mines and can
