 IN NAME ONLY
SAYS IS UNDECIDED WHETHER TO MAKE RACE NEXT YEAR.
 SCORES OPPONENTS

NEW YORK, Nov. 2S (P)-A dis patch to the New York Times said that James E. Ferguson of Texas, admits that he and not his wife, is governor, the latter holding office in name only. Newspaper men who travelled 2,00O miles to see the governor, made an ap- pointment for an audience, but when ushered into the executive office found not Miriam but James Ferguson in charge, who immediately began a de- fense of his administration. He said:
 Tn the first primary last year l ran second to the Klan candidate-I mean my wife ran second. We have not decided whether we will run for gov ernor next year. It is no surprise to me that Speaker Satterwhite has said he wouldn't hesitate to impeach the governor because she was a woman. He wouldn't hesitate to do anything to advance his political fortunes, wo- man or no woman"
 He pronounced his opponents insin- cere because his wife announced when she ran for governor that it was be- cause her husband was disqualified by impeachment, that she didn't know statecraft and would take his counsel.

 COMING WINTER

The following official announce ment, styled freight circular Mo- 36, which was issued from A. R. R. headquarters this week, sets forth the condition under which perish able freight may be shipped during the winter months when tempera- lures are liable to be dangerously low:
 Owing to extreme cold weather conditions experienced on this line between Seward and Fairbanks-in- cluding the branch line points-dur- ing the months of January, February and March, when the thermometer drops from 30 to 50 below zero, a considerable amount of difficulty has been experienced in the handling of perishable freight requiring heat CT car service during those months.
 Rules governing the handling of heater car service, as provided in the Terminal Tariff No. 3, Item 52O Rule "F0' covering carload shipments, and Item 575 Rule 70" covering less carload shipments, provide that it will be optional with the carrier to handle perishable freight when the temperature is 5 degrees below zero or colder.
 Tn accordance with the above, perishable freight shipments which require heater car service will be accepted only subject to owners risk of freezing or overheating dur ing the above indicated months of each year.
 Shipments handled during the per- for above mentioned will be given the usual care, but this carrier will not be responsible for any damage whatsoever account of weather con- ditions or from overheating. It is requested that all shippers be noti- fled of the above.

MYSTERIOUS DEATH OF
 ENGINEER BE INVESTIGATED

What caused the death of Ole A. Orvik? was the question raised by the First City News of Ketchikan in one of their recent issues.
 He was engineer on the halibut schooner Kodiak and early Sunday morning, after eating a lunch up- town, retired to his bunk on board of the boat with a companion fish, erman.
 He was called later in the morning. He was found dead with his arms under his head in the position he generally slept. It was necessary to shake him before it was discovered that he was dead.
 The man was in excellent health and a medical examination showed no signs of disease or heart fail- ure. He had not been drinking, so it is claimed. The contents of the stomach are being sent to Seattle for a further analysis with a view of determining the cause of death, if possible.
 Deceased was 3S years old. All his relatives live in Norway. The body was sent outside on the Rogers for burial in Seattle. Capt. Ole Larson of the Kodiak, an intimate friend of the deceased, accompanied the body south. Deceased had taken out his final papers the day before he died.
