 Special footwear will not slip off during the wriggling foot movements of the Charleston is in growing de- mand, now that the modified Charles ton has become one of the most popu- lar dances in London bathrooms.
 Shoes have been fitted with safety garters which slip on over the toe and sole and hold them firmly in posi- tion.
 Charleston teas are slowly replacing tango teas which have had such a vogue and in order to be up-to-date many London girls and women are having special lessons in the intrica- cies of the steps of the Charleston.
 At the same time the new dance is somewhat tiring for the feet and many beginners have had to visit chiropo- dists and masseurs for advice and treatment.

All Alaskaps were interested in the Wilkens North Pole expedition be- cause of the selection of Fairbanks as the starting point, and were sorry at the bad luck that seemed to follow every step of it's progress. Every move was recorded by the movie cam- era and we have been waiting for an opportunity to see for ourselves the wrecking of both planes and the many obstacles that caused the final aban- donment of the project. Two reels of these pictures are billed for the Lib- erty theater tonight and those who wish to see have the opportunity.
 The feature of the program is Jackie Coogan in "Old Clothes" and this King of child actors upholds his title in this play.

RESIDENT GAME LICENSE

The suggestion by the Alaska Game Commission that resident hunting license be imposed in order to facilitate detection and elimination of persons not eligible to resident privileges appears to meet general approval in this portion of the Territory
 The levyng of such license is in line with usages in practically all of the various States and the suggestion is in wise departure from common usages
 In order to the game it has been necessary to employ wardens and the license fees would to this purpose while the license would eliminate those not titled to hunt.
 It would seem reasonable that no sportsman would object to paying nominal fee for the privilege of hunt ing and would appreciate the benefits to be derived thru proper protection of the greatest game regions of the American continent

lature in all good and wholesome
moves for the benefit of the people
as a whole. Doesn't it seem that
we, as reasonable people, in a civ
ilized country, should have legisla-
ton enacted leading toward the
preservation of human lives at rail-
road crossings?"
In discussing labor laws and
those pertaining to railroad en-
ployees, Mr.. Cox stated that if cleo
ted to the high office of governor
of the state of Arizona, he would
recommend to the legislature that
a law be passed preventing train
men from getting on and off of
trains at the speed with which they
are now compelled and which en-
dangers their lives. He also said
that he was in favor of a law COM
pelling the companies to provide a
suitable place for the head brake
man when out on the road.
"We will have to legislate in ac-
cordance with the time in which
we live. Our mode of travel upon
the highways has so changed that
the hazards at railroad crossings
have greatly increased. We have
already legislated as to the speed
limit on highways, as to the light
ing of vehicles, etc. The railroad
employees are anxious for some
thing to be done for the protection
of human life at railroad crossings.
Although there may not be any fl
nancial loss to the employee, who,
by accident, snuffs out a life at a
crossing, yet that employee is a
human being, the same as the life
that is taken.
''Those Of you who know any
thing at all about the livestock in
dustry of our state know that it is

States government in the National
Forests. These, I think, can be

have the unmitigated gall to say
that our present banking law is suf-
ficient, if it was only enforced. Let
us see what kind of a banking law
we have at the present time.
I'm 1898, in the territorial legis-
lature, there was a law passed
which remains upon our statutes
to the present time, exempting
banks from paying taxes on real
estate owned by the banks. If you
care to make any investigation of
this, get the Revised Statutes of
Arizona, 1913, Civil Code, turn to
page 1855, and read Section $3.50.
''In 1921, the bankers Iobbied a
law through the Legislature max
ing it misdemeanor by imprison-
ment for not more than a year to
make statement or rumor, writ
ten or printed, or by word of
mouth, which is untrue in fact, and
is directly, or by inference, deroga-
tory to the financial condition or
affects the solvency or standing of
any bank doing business within the
state.
''In 1922, the bankers lobbied an
other measure through the Legis-
lature which prohibits the inspec-
tion of any of the records of the
State Banking Department. There
is no law at the present time pro-
hibiting the bank officials from
borrowing money from their bank.
The records of the banks that have
failed in this state show almost
without exception that the officials
of the bank have either loaned to
themselves directly great sums of
money out of their banks, or have
loaned it to their close friends or

There are those among us in
great numbers who will not turn
pale when frowned upon by the
money powers, neither will they
tremble, stutter, or stammer in
saying "No" to any unjust legisla-
tion that is proposed. The Execu-
