Charges Of Jackson
Corruption Renewed
By Indiana Editor

F. INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 7.-Gover-
nor Ed jackson today was challenged
by Boyd Curley, indianapolis Times
editor, to repeat under oath before
the Marion County Grand Jury his
denial of Curley's charges of political
corruption.
Curley also, in letter to the gov
ernor, sent today, defied him to waive
the statute of limitations which at
present is embarrassing the inquiry
Of the Marion County Grand Jury
into the D. c, Stephenson political
scandal.
Offered McCray Immunity.
The letter reiterated the charge
that Jackson approached former Gov
ernor Warren T. McCray and offered
him immunity from prosecution and
$4,000 in exchange for the appoint
ment by McCray of James Z, McDon-
aid, Indianapolis attorney, favorite
of the experimentation machine,
as Marion county prosecutor
Referring to Jackson's general de-
NAL of the charge, issued yesterday,
Curley said, IF the proper tribunal
should decide that the evidence on
which | printed that statement is as
convincing to them as it was to me,
then they can properly apply the
rem edy under your own Interpretation
Of the legal meaning of these facts"
Practically defying Jackson to sue
him for criminal libel, Curley said,
"O1e of US has been guilty or is
guilty"

mystery, Is now revealed as having
spent his spare moments in the harm
less intrigue Of delving into the his
tory OF the Napoleonic wars at the
beginning Of the last century.
DR.. Stresenann has been gather
ing material to back up his criticism
of the stage drama "Neidhart Won

which the then .. NJ Gen. Won
Gneisenau is depicted as the brains OF
the Prussian Army that drove Napo-
leon's forces while Field Mar shall Geb-

DR.. Stresennann some time ago
wrote a review of the play In which
he contended that the piece which
intended to right an historical wrong
was In itself not entirely accurate.
The foreign minister's view was
challenged by some historians. and
the reply which he has been working
out will soon be published in a literary
review.

WHERE THE FOUR-LEAF
 CLOVER GROWS
by KATHRYN G. KANE
(Written specially for The Gateway

(Written specially for The Gateway
 Among the entries discovered in an old ledger of the Northern Commercial company, a relic of the thriving days of Dutch Harbor is one showing a purchase had been made of sixteen and three grass-woven covered jugs for $4.00, and two covered bottles, S2OO; ten May baskets, $1O, and one prayer mat, $50. Those baskets were of the very finest workmanship and required months and months of the most patient and trying labor to produce the perfect specimens. These native women who are adept in this art, gather this particularly specie of grass in midsummer, and after wash ing it several times to render it pli- able and to remove the outside fibre, it is then spread on a canvas sheet and placed where the rays of the sun will shine directly upon it, for the bleaching process, which usually takes about two weeks, they turning the grass every day until it becomes a beautiful creamy white in color. It is now ready to make into threads of different texture, some as fine as sew ing silk, and others like the linen thread. The splitting is done with the thumb-nail and only one thread is taken from each blade of grass; the rest is discarded as too coarse for use
Seward daily gateway., 1927-01-20
Beginning of a Basket

To begin a basket, the desired amount of grass (according to the size of the basket) is securely tied with thread. and from here the weaving is begun, using three strands and ln- serting threads as the basket becomes larger. and then it is fitted over a form to give it the basket shape. Rows upon rows of dainty lace pat terms are woven in, with the Russian and Greek designs, so skillfully worked in with silk thread or differ ent shades of grass that the finished product is an exquisite gem of beauty, and perfect in design and workman ship.
 From a thoro canvass among the na- tiyes of these islands, there were found only six women who are able to make the real Attu grass basket, and to safeguard this beautiful work from becoming a lost art, the schools on these islands have taken up the work and hope to find even few o1 the younger generation to be able te carry on and hand it down to then posterity.
 The Russian church, with it's golder dome is the most prominent land mark of Unalaska. The present edl fee is the second built on this foun dation, a very substantial large ant beautiful building.
