plan.
 MT. Morganthau, returning from six month tour of the world, makes the state ment that either Roosevelt or Young win be named as the Democratic standard bear CT, because 1t will be necessary for the Democrats to carry New York in order to win. He adds that Gov. Al Smith Is the most available and outstanding candidate, and that the wet agitation has greatly strengthened him, but that it Is difficult to be simultaneously a presidential candi- date, State leader and national leader" He suggests also that religious prejudice w1l possibly prevent the New York governor from becoming the party'S nominee, but that 1t can not prevent him from becoming it's leader in thought. Aside from Smith, the former ambassador holds that Young and Roosevelt are the outstanding mem bers of the party in the Empire State
 MT. Morganthau has doubtless uttered a truth in saying that the Democrats can not win in 1928 without New York although Woodrow Wilson lost the State in 1916 and yet won the election. However, the Demo cratic party is not in the same situation aS in 1916, and MT. Morgenthau'S observation seems to be sound
 Many persons who study politics hold the opinion that the only man in the Democra- tic party who could certainly carry New York State in presidential year, or in any other year, for that matter, Is Gov. Smith. Therefore, they contend that If, in order to win the election, the Democrats must pick a New York man to lead the, ticket Al Smith will be the one chosen.

THE REINDEER MEAT INDUSTRY

It IS scarcely more than 35 years ago that reindeer were first introduced into Alaska. The question as to whether the first import CT was Capt. Conrad Seim, then represent ing the interests of trading company, or Dr. Jackson of the bureau of education of the Department of the Interior, is unset tied. Capt Seim, now a resident of Wash ington, made the claim that he brought the first reindeer from Siberia into the Terri tory several years before the government undertook the task of stocking the moss fields with the animals
 However, no matter who was responsible, the fact remains that the introduction of reindeer into the northermost possession of the United States has been followed by an enormous increase. It was believed that the distribution of the animals among the natives and the dissemination of informa- tion as to breeding, care and marketing of the products of the herds would serve to solve the problem of feeding and caring for the natives But the lack of transportation facilities from the sections of the great re- zion where the animals are most numerous has made it impossible for the herd owners to maintain themselves and their families upon their herds. Now it has been decided to organize several big drives with the ob- ject of transferring the animals to feeding grounds near the Alaska railroad, so that instead of being compelled to market his meat among the natives the educated herd owner will be afforded the opportunity to take advantage of the better market condi- tions outside.
 It is expected that during the summer more than 50,O00 of the Alaska reindeer will be driven, in herds of 2,OOO each, to better locations, and that the Eastern markets next winter will be supplied with reindeer meat to a much greater extent than ever before. And all of the shipments must be made thru Seward.

PROTECT THE FARMERS

One of the measures before Congress which the Grange Is working hard to enact is the Goodin-Ketcham bill, that aims to shut out worthless and inferior seed from
 importation into the United States. The Grange has collected evidence showing an nual losses to American farmers totaling million of dollars, especially through the mixing of imported seeds Of low grade The measure in question proposes that foreign seeds shall be stained, so that every farm CT can tell them at glance Much interest attaches to the Gooding- -Ketcham bill and Grange support for it follows the strong declaration of the National Grange, at its Sacramento session, in favor Of stringent legislation to protect farmers against their annual losses from low grade foreign seed.

BALDWIN WILL FIX TT

Somehow or other Premier Baldwin will fix it." This seems to indicate the feeling throughout Great Britain with regard to the "coal war which finally came to head. The best brains in England failed to find anything approaching a workable solution. The coal industry faced ruin if wages were not reduced The whole country faces the disruption of ruinous strike. Premier Baldwin saved the country" year ago by sacrificing his economic principles in sub- sidy. Now all sides are counting on him, and all rather blindly.

DEMOCRATIC PROPHET

The Democrats need worry no longer about presidential candidate in 1928, nor
 indeed, about the election. Henry Morgen- thau, former ambassador to Turkey and counted among President Wilson's politi- cal strategists, has settled the question for them. He announces that the nominee of the Democrats in 1923 will be either Frank lin D. Roosevelt, former Assistant Secre- tary of the Navy and candidate for Vice President in 1920, or Owen D. Young, who shared with Vice President Dawes the ere dit of evolving the German reparations

citizens of Augusta for the reception
