RADICAL LINDBERGH

In these days of glorifying Lind bergh, we wonder if the people of the United States would also honor his father, and if they do not really ap~ prove of his principles.
 Congressman Lindbergh was elect ed to the 6Oth Congress as Repub- lican. He served from 1910 to 1917. He was an 1ndefatigable worker, keen-minded, fearless, pro- gressive. He was a member of the Banking and Currency Committee; he was a foe of the "system," made many speeches against monopoly was friend of the masses, the toilers on the farms and in the factories.
 Speaking in the House, April 8, 1916, referring to the fact that two per cent of the people own 60 per cent of all the wealth in the United States, while 98 per cent own only 40 per cent, he said:
 ''Plutocracy has plundered the natiOn.. The toilers do all the work that creates the wealth but the

Everybody Talks;
 Nobody Does Anything

Alaska seems to be something like Mark Twain's weather: Every body talks about 1t but nobody does anything about 1t.
 Senator Willis of Ohio is the latest talker. He sees the vast pos abilities of the territory and says it should be developed. Now he will go back to Ohio and forget about it.
 Probably there's not much wrong with Alaska. It is badly governed, it is true, but 1t hs comparatively prosperous; it's resources are being brought into development. There is no pressing need for rapid-fire utilization of everything Alaska has to offer.
 But if Alaska waits for congress- to do anything she will wait in vain. She must dig in herself, re. membering that Providence aids those who aid themselves.-Sea Times.

Nome he said: 'I have just com pleted an extensive tour of Alaska. I am convinced that the people of the Territory believe that great re- suits to Alaska could be obtained by a delegate in accord with the ad- ministration at Washington"
 The campaign slogan which will be pushed by Senator Howard no doubt is a remnant of the Marquam campaign of two years ago "A de- legate in harmony with the admin istration."

Sanacory was paid and dropped
from the case Snyder never
brought the divorce action which
he had talked over with former
Federal Judge Nathan Lieberman.

desk room, and by so doing sent

tective phrased 1t last night.
Repeated meetings were witnessed
by Sanacory and finally he saw the
pair in a compromising position in
the Snyder home, but was unable to
locate the husband. This happened
again, and finally the detective went
to his client and insised on an ar
rangement whereby he would be
able to get in touch with him at
any moment of the day or night.
Snyder agreed.
On the afternoon of June IA. at
the detectives suggestions, Snyder
packed handbag and told his wife
that he was leaving town for a
few days-another OF the fishing
trips that she is said to have pro.
tested-and left the home. He went

Sanacory.
Shortly before midnight the de.
tective, who had been watching
Mrs. Snyder, saw her telephone to
Gray, and saw the latter's arrival.
He went to corner telephone and
called the bowling alley.
