fruit. When 1t came to Malvina' 3
mince pie the praise grew almost
noisy.
Malvina was enraptured. It seemed
like a dream to be seeing Sylvanus
again after SO many years. She could
not see that he had changed.
"Sylvanus' wife died year ago. I
guess he's come back to look him up
another one," Della told Malvina as
they washed the dishes.
Sylvanus walked home with Malvina
after a delightful evening. He car.
ried the empty pie tin.
They met Lulu returning and
stopped to speak to her.
Mrs. Bright phoned for me. I
knew you wouldn't care" Lulu said.
"It's all right" Malvina laughed.
Sylvanus squeezed Malvina's hand
on his arm.
"Everything's all right with NAL
vina always" he said. "Even il it
isn't she makes the best of it. You
missed a good mince pie, Lulu, and
maybe you'll never have another
chance to eat one of Malvina's. I'm
going to take her back with me when
! go"
At that instant he dropped the
mince pie tin. And it tangled on the
hard stones like wedding bells.

ASKS DIVORCE HEARING.
Plaintiff Urges Speedy Trial o.
Case in D. C.. Courts.

Mrs Coula Gotsis, 1913 Eighth street

Supreme Court to hasten the trial of
her suit for limited divorce from
Louis Gotsis, who conducted tatilor-
ing establishment at S17 H street
northeast. Mrs. Gotsis says the strain
of living in the same house with her
husband and not being on speaking
terms with him is too much for her
and their five children. She wants the
husband to leave the house or provide
a separate domicile for her and the
children. Attorney Leonard A. Block
appears for the wife.

MORE Ou LEGISLATURE

(Continued from Page Six)
 most valuable forms of governments; For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever"
 Of these charges, and the others set up in the Declaration of Independence there is nothing duplicated in the Alas kan situation today. Nor there any thing in the Comptroller bill which would correct such evils if they ex isted. Alaska was granted certain Legislative powers in the Organic Act of 1913, the Wickersham act. Moth ing has been taken away from those powers by the Congress, President, departmental executive or Governor since it became Alaska's Constitution. If there is any single phase of the Alaskan situation which resembles that of the colonies just preceding their emergence into natiOnhood, 1t lies in the power of the Federal gov ernment to impose occupational taxes upon Alaskans which their Legislature cannot amend or repeal. This is unique. But the inhibition was writ ten into the Constitution of Alaska and may not be removed except by Congressional enactment. Judg Wick ersham's act of 1912 expressly forbids | the Territorial Legislature to alter, amend, modify and repeal, "the laws of the United States providing for taxes on business and trade" And
 thus every year Alaskan businesses and industries continue to pay Federal taxes to which their competitors in
 Washington and other States are not subjected.
 The aim for the Comptroller bill is
 admittedly to create system of ex-
 ecutive administration for the Terri tory entirely different from that of any other Territory in the country's his tory. It seeks to try out a brand new experiment. It is based on no show 1 ing of abuse of power, or perversion of legislation, or nonfunctioning of of ficers. And in this connection atten- ton might be drawn to short para
 graph in the opening lines of the Declaration of Independence. "Pru- dence, indeed, will dictate that gov ernments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes"
