There now seems no doubt that LaFolIette and Wheeler will be put upon the ballot to be voted upon in Connecticut this year, pe- titions of such number being filed in various cities about the state as to indicate that the sufficient num- Der of 5000 odd voters will be secured and that lime other flow CTS that bloom in the night the third party national offering will be presented to Connecticut citi- gems. Perusal of the lists so far filed show however that the sign CTS are principally members of the socialist party which by virtue of having been in the running four and two years ago and polling about 5000 votes do not have to file petition for a place on the ballot The socialist party na- tionally has endorsed LaF ollette and Wheeler and therefore its members statewise are being used 10 draft from to get their names O the ballots.
 Contrary to the expectations also, the lists so far filed to show that aside from the Socialists who are supporting LaFollette and Wheeler, the republican party in the cities at least IS suffering more than the democras. In New Ha- ven for instance when the Socialists are checked off and the others checked up the town clerk it shows that the repuo- lican names on the petition are about three to every democrats this probably being due to republican digust with the situation at Washington, while the dem- ocratic Reflection is indicated to be among wi1l-o-the-wisps in that party who are prone to follow any lead that will bring them into the limelight that they cannot attain within their pro- fessed party ranks It had been ex- pected that the democrats would suffer heavily through the LaFollette ticket but already many who had previously been leaning toward the Wisconsin rad ical have thought better of it and to pre- veht reelection of Coolidge are to stick sohdly behind Davis and Bryan and the rest of their party alignment
 The LaFollette lists also show large number of Implications of names ap- pended to other petitions such as the Socialist labor, the workers party and even the prohibitionists While these are in great number they would not be suf- hcient, it is believed to invalidate the LaFollette petition even if they were thrown off and at any rate under the law as it reads and is interpreted there is nothing to prevent a voter from sign ing one or more petitions if he so chooses. It does not commit him to any

republicans or democrats this year The test IS, are we real Americans and are we against those who seek the overthrow Of this government under leaders from a baptism of bolshevism in lurid and suffering Russai? Our s-torefathers, with an astounding vision,
 set up here a nation for us, with a scheme of government that has with stood the test of a century and half and has been the pattern for all free governments since, one of which IS not red Russia, where the only freedom the unfortunate enjoy is the freedom to die to escape worse fate.

 hc-" He added that he has found mo warrant whatever" for withdrawing any single one of them, and then proceeded to elaborate upon them in blunt fash ion.
 Brushing aside Mr. Daughertys state ment that his self respect debarred him from appearing before the Senate investigating committee because of the malice exhibited toward him by 1t, MT. Davis said that it seemed to him that under the circumstances "the malice of the committee and the fa1sity of the evil dence would rather increase than dirair- ish the natural desire of any man, much less an attorney general of the United States, to meet his accusers on their own ground.
 Insofar as the man Gaston B. Means is concerned,'' the letter continued, "I have read the repudiation of his former testimony which you enclosed in your letter. l observe that since your let ter was delivered to me has once more recanted and repudiated his repudiation.
 It was you, however, who appointed him to a confidential position in the De- partment of Justice.
 You brought him into the circle of your official intimates," Mr. Davis said You created him a government agent You gave him his credentials At the time you did so his character was a1- ready notorious. I can imagine no mal- administration in any government de- partment more vicious than the em- ployment of men of such character"
 Adverting to the indictment of United States Senator Burton K. Wheeler of . Montana, prosecutor" for the Senate committee, MT. Davis said the 'signih- cant thing was that no effort to find such an indictment had been made until Senator Wheeler had assumed a lead ing part in the criticism of the admins tration and yourself"
 In writing MT. Daugherty that he was mistaken that such references as had been made to him were unusually vague and all the more reprehensib1e," MT. Davis said he begged to call atten- ton to them.
 "In my speech of acceptance" he wrote, "I spoke of an attorney general, yourself-'ad admitting bribe- takers to the Department of Justice,

from jury duty was offered recently

Guinan states that prices are very high in his district, as high as SIPS per pound being paid for freighting.
 Several dredges are operating in the Ophir district this summer as we'll as a number of small hydraul- icking plants and all are doing a good business.
 MT. Guinan said that the kusko- kwim mining region is spotted with low grade gravel, but lower prices must prevail before it can be work ed. What is needed is a good wag- on road from Ruby to McGrath and on to Tacotna, giving means of trans portation with the upper Kuskokwim and Yukon.
 At present it costs $130 ton for freight from Seattle to the ground where the dredges are operated.
