Thomas was nominated for mayor.
Harriet Stanton Blatch for controller
and Joseph Beardsley for Boro presi-
dent by the sham fusion conference
Of the socialists late Saturday night

In their traction program. the So
cialists adopted the plank Of munich
pal ownership of traction with con-
troll in the hands Of board composed
representatives Of the chief political
parties. This means that the social
lists propose the management shall be
in the hands OF representatives OF the
capitalist parties with the socialists
sitting in the board. The slogan OF
the socialists in this proposal is typi-
cal Of the middle class theology keep
the traction out OF politics"

similar effete reformistic demands.
The whole platform breathes the
spirit of Cancellation and collabora-
tionism.

Yet it is being violated wholesale,

effective.

Immediately everyone stood his
ground ready to counter the attack,
waiting for the alarm to be sounded.
Without previous discipline, every
member was in his place, disciplin-

tense and bodies alert and ready to
spring into action. Then the word was
passed around that it was a false
alarm. The tension relaxed; the ST.

merriment again resumed their sway

ANCHORAGE, Jan. 23.-Frank
Ashenfeltcn, deer man and explorer,
recently returned here from q cruise
with the bureau of education steam
cr Boxer, reported that the Eski-
mos of King Island, a small rocky
spirc in thc Arctic, live in cliff
dwellings carved from the living
rock by earlier nomads of the tribe
and improved by the more modern
Eskimo until they are quite com
Portable even for white habitation.
The island lies 40 miles off the
mainland. The Eskimos cross over
i'll their skin boats in summer, trad
ing along the coast as far south
as Cape Nome and return in the
fall. In summer they anchor their
skin tents to the cliffs and live
comfortably until the Arctic cold
comes down.
Many of the cliff dwellings arc
furnished with the most modcrn
equipment, including monographs,
sewing machines and comfortable
beds, according to Ashenfcltcn. Be.
ing fishermen and craftsmen, the
Eskimos use fossil ivory combcd
from the beaches in summer and
the tuskl OF walrus captured to
shape Eskimo ivory art and use
the articles as barter for other ne

INEPT NAMES

Names should mean something, and old names
are precious. These sentiments come with special
force in connection with the proposal before congress
to restore the ancient of Mt Tacoma discarding
the upstart title of Rainier given by the geographic

citation, seems to have been the name always used by
the Indians signfying in general 'snow mountain
and in this case 'the mountain
Archceacon Stuck, distinguished mountaineer,
who cung to the old Denali for the great Alas
kan peak now named MT Mckinley says: There
is to the authors mind certain ruthless arrogance
that grows offensive the years pass by IN the
temper that comes to new land and contemptuous-
" ignores the native of conspicuous and natu-
raj objects, almost always appropriate, and overayS
them with names that commonly neither the one

The bill which has passed the senate and is pend
ing in the house would give the official name Tacoma
not only to the mountain but to Rainier National
Park" and Rainier National Forest" adjoining It,
which seems appropriate enough.
There is said to be impression in some quarters
that the efforts of the city of Tacoma to bring about
this action means that the mountain IS to be named
for the city 1t ought to be evident that the city was
named for the mountain. If the measure fails perhaps
congress- to be consstent,t should rename the city

HUMAN EXPORTS

DR.. Harry H. Laughn, in a report to the mmgra-
ton committee of the house of representatives takes
note of the remarkable fact that while other countries
eagerly trying to export their goods this
try Italy specializes in exporting And apparent
ly Italy makes fine profit out of it, Just Brazil
does in exporting coffee to Germany in exporting
fine machinery Scotland in exporting contraband
liquor.
Itay's immigration quota under the present law is
42,C00 year. The Italian government not only
courages the migration of that number to America but
picks them herself from the hundreds of thousands
who want to come The government does that almost
if it sorting merchandise 1t gives preference
to abe-bodied young unmarried, in the expecta-
ton that they will send money home to support their
families IN Italy for many years to come, and will
probably return themselves some time with their
cumulated savings
This is not an unnatural thing to do, inasmuch
the leading product of that prolific nation,
and the rapidly growing population cannot all find
living at home. Yet such policy places Italy almost
alone among the nations of the world, in not seeking
to keep her vigorous at home to work directly for
the upbuildng of their faherland. Possibly far
sighted craftsmanship would make that possible, by
developing industry wisely in Italy and the 1tal
ian colonies.
