ROY H. HAMILL.

R. H. Hamill, 43 years old, 1856
Stanton road, widely known in West
Virginia coal circles and prominent
Huntington contractor, died Thursday
afternoon at Johns Hopkins hospital,
Baltimore, where he was taken a
week ago Sunday for an operation for
kidney infection.
Although he had not been in good
health for two years he did not be-
come seriously ill until two weeks ago
when an operation became advisable.
He underwent the operation success
fully, rallied, and was apparently i'm
proving. Death was entirely unex-
pected.
The body will arrive in Huntington
on C. & o. train No. 1, Saturday
morning. Funeral services will be
conducted from St. Paul's Lutheran
church Sunday afternoon at 2:30
o'clock with Rev. C. E. Butler, pastor,
officiating. The body will be placed in
mausoleum in Woodmere cemetery.
Here Since 1912
Mr.. Hamill was president of the
R. H. Hamill Company, with offices in
the ACKNOWLEDGMENT building, and
was associated with D. G. Hughes.
The firm was formerly the Diamond
Construction company and was orga-
nized by Mr.. Hamill when he first
came to Huntington in the fall of
1912. The company then engaged in
industrial construction, specializing
in building of mining towns.
Through his business connections
Mr. Hamill was we'll known through
out the entire south as well as mining
sections of West Virginia, and was
one of Huntington's most popular
business men. He was a member of
the Rotary Club, the Masonic lodge,
was a Shriner, and an active worker
in St. Pauls Lutheran church, being
a close friend of the pastor, Rev.
Butler.
Maryland Native
Although Maryland was his native
state, Mr.. Hamill spent practically
most of his life since young manhood
in West Virginia, where he was
prominently identified with the min
ing industry.
For several years prior to moving
to Huntington he was a mine super
intendent in Logan county where he
made large host of friends among
the coal operators.
Surviving are his widow, seven
children, Alvin, Kathryn, Louise,
Helen, Gordon, Richard and Ruth
Hamill; two sisters, Mrs. H. A. Lora-
ditch and Miss Margaret Hamill, both
of Oakland, Nd, and his parents, who
also reside in Oakland, Mr.. Hamill's
birthplace.
Mrs. Hamill's parents reside in
Baltimore.-Hu Huntington Advertiser,

SNYDER MURDER

The murders of Snyder of New York, his wife Mrs. Ruth Snyder and her paramour Henry Judd Gray were found guilty of first degree murder by jury of their peers this week. In just about two months from the time of the dast- ardly murder they have been brot to justice. The sentence for first degree murder in that State being the death penalty. Plea for new trail being refused by the Court,
 The details of this unusually grue- some murder included picture wire. binding and gagging, poisned whiskey, taking turns at smashing with window weight, and an in surance policy of $104,000. As usual the victim of this brutal mur- der is the little daughter of the murdered man.

FAIRBANKS MAN MURDERED

A murder of most grusome as- pect was disclosed when the body of Howard Ridnig, proprietor of tfe Cinema roadhouse, was discovered this morning, according to a report reeuived at the Marshal's office here late this afternoon. The re- port was brought in by Martin L.. Nelson who stopped at the road house enroute to town.
 It was stated by MT. Nelson that he entered the roadhouse, which is situated fourteen miles from town on the little Cinema trail, at 8:3O o'clock. He found Riding's body in a corner of the dining room of the roadhouse, in the midst of a pool of blood. The table was spattered with blood, and the condition of the room indicated terrific struggle. MT. Nelson did not disturb the body and so did not ascertain the nature of the wounds.
 The Marshars office has informa- tion that leads to suspicion of a man who is known recently to have been in the vicinity of Little Cinema, it is stated, and deputies are being sent out in search of him. An in quest, under Commissioner Mel R. Boyle, will be held as soon as the necessary personnel and witnesses can be summoned.
 Howard Riding, popularly known as Slim, had conducted the Little Cinema roadhouse for several years and was frequent visitor in Fair banks. His summers usually were spent in logging, as he had engaged in river drives of timber for the To- cal mill since the early days of this community -Mner.

ritorial affairs but we have not yet found or heard a valid reason.
 The outstanding feature of the opposition to this bill being the fear the political pewees have of the elective power of the people of the Territory.
 The alignment as shown by the working of the legislature being the credit of peanut politicians who wor- ship at the feet of their god-Money, and whose brains seem to be under the hypnotic influence of Federal Brigade whose only aim it is to hang to the fat appropriations of the Territory and the Federal Gov ernment at the same time.
 The next legislature will demon strate more clearly the growing de- mand for the greater consideration of the interests of the residents of the Territory.
 Tn press of the Territory being more considerate of the dollars of the vested interests than the welfare of those who make up the actual population of the Territory.
 The demand of the next election will be for men who will vote on rather. thanfor the power of prin- cipal.

About two percent of the popu- lation of the State of Kansas paid in income tax for the year 1926. With greater resources right at our very doors and greater natural ad
 vantage than Kansas, yet could we say that two percent of the popu- lation of Alaska paid in income tax?

average in six years. It is we'll to remember that this particular man was in debt something like million dollars in 1921, having but one can nery at the time. Today he has four canneries. In other words his one and a half percent enabled him to clear his indebtedness and to pur- chase three other canneries. What would he have purchased had he made six percent on his capital in vested.
 before the legislature had his apartments furnished with '$4O,000 worth of furniture. This man also was something like million dollars in debt in 1921. So the story might be continued with other stories of reckless extravaganza in the States and a studied system of penurious- ness in Alaska.
 The next big thing brought out was the power of the political ma chine in the hand of morphodite po- litical parties along with the en- trenched carpet bagger system. We now speak of the defeated Controller :roller bill. We have racked our poor little brains to see what val i'd objection could be made to the election of the Secretary of the Ter ritory and the Treasurer along with one other to direct the strictly Ter
