SOUTH REFUSES TO TAKE ANTI SALOON LEAGUE ORDERS.

Senator Pat Harrison has refused to accede to request Cor it demand? ? of the Anti Saloon League to urge that the Mississippi dele gation to the Democratic National Convention be instructed to do all within its power to prevent the nomination of Gov. Smith. Senator Harri- son said that he opposed to any kind of instructions to the State delegation. He believed in electing strong for delegates and to allow them to act in representative capacity.
 It is said that there will probably be few Southern or Western delegations to the next convention bound either by instructions or the unit rule. Senator Dill while in Juneau said that he opposed to either instructions or the unit rule for the Washington State delegation, and he believed there would be none
 The indications are that the Anti-Saoon League has about abandoned it's fight to pre- vent the domination of Gov. Smith, The chances are that it's fight against the great New York Governor will be the rock which the organi- zaton will be wrecked. It's wreck somewhere at an early date seems certain.

Wise Regulation.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer. )

News continues to come in telling of aug mented runs of salmon in the waters of Puget Sound.
 Now that the recent controversy over fishing regulations, both here and in Alaska has lost most of it's heat it excellent time fol a few backward glances. Dispassionate consid- eration of the effect of regulation of Puget Sound fisheries in the last six years might lead tc some definite conclusions to future policies for conserving one of most valuable in- dustries
 Prior to 1921 commercial fishing a des- perate game between fish and fishermen, without benefit of referee. Such feeble attempts as were made to surround the industry with measure of protection took the form of mere laws buried in statute books. Many of them were unsound i'll considered, unscientifc. None were enforced
 The battle between fish and man was bound to be unequal. Man had science on his side Particularly in purse seine fishing, deepening of nets and addition of power tp the boats which dragged them resulted in developing imple- ment which threatened not only reduction of fish, but actual extinction
 This condition defed all correctives until 1921 In that year the administrative code was enacted in Washington. Among other agencies II provided a State Fish Commission. This body was given the utmost power, the freest hand to bring sanity and conservation to the fishing
 industry.
 Without respect to the controversy over purse seine fishing which led this spring to the Board dismissal, a gradual but very definite improve ment of runs in the last few years demonstrates beyond question, not alone the wisdom of the legislation creating the Board, but, more import ant the wisdom of measures adopted by the Com mission for preservation of the industry. Despite the argument that government all over America is leaning too heavily toward bureaucracy and commissions, in our complex economic structure there certain phases bear ing upon a proper balance between the rights and welfare of the whole people and those of private interests which seem best served by boards clothed with broadest possible powers to effect desirable enw.
 In the case under discussion, the desirable end was preservation of our fisheries for the benefit of the people. E. A. Sims, E. F. Blake and Harry Ramwell, until recently making up the Fish Commission of this State seem the whole to have had this end in view and to have worked wisely for it's attainment.

ALASKA WILL MISS COL. sTEEsE.

The news that Col. James c. Steese, for seven or eight years President of the Alaska Road Com mission will not return to Alaska causes sincere regret fhrouehou; the Territory No one, except perhaps Gen. Richardson, father of the Alaska Road Commission and it's head for dozen years. has done so much for Interior Alaska Col steese. His services have been invaluable He has not only put the people of the Territory under obligations that cannot be repaid but he has the affection of everybody by his gen. uine interest in their welfare his enthusiasm in their service and his agreeable personality
 The choice of successor to Col. Steese for the head of the Alaska Road Commission unless Gen. Richardson could be induced to accept it again. will be a difficult matter. In any other circumstance it will be like Jefferson described the situation when, addressed by the French Minister, So you take Dr. Franklin's placer" replied q succeed him, no one could take his place."
 Col steese is fine engineer and superb executive who has had the work of his efficient organization at his finger tips, but his incom- parable service has been the effectiveness with which he has presented the situation to the De- pertinent and Congress and got the money neces- sary to carry on the road building program in Alaska. He was able to do that because of his thorough Knowledge of the Territory and affection for it. his enthusiasm for the Alaska Road Com mission and its work and understanding of the need for it, his tireless energy, and because of his ability to inspire confidence and transmit his enthusiasm and knowledge to those in authority at Washington,
 We know of but person who could take Col Steese's place in this work, and that as said, is Gen. Richardson whom Col. Steese followed.
 Wherever Col. Steese may go and whatever he may undertake in the future. the whole heart ed friendship and well wishes of the people of Alaska will follow him.

]. COPPER ADVANCING.

Copper prices to have definitely started and upward trend The price has safely passed the Recent point. In fact, the market apparently is firm at from 13 Is to 13A cents, with out look good for further advances.
 Commenting on the situation the New Yorl Financial World says:
 With the electrical industry going ahead rather rapidly. and the prospect for greater consumption of copper fav- orably defined not only in this country but also in Europe. it would be logical to look for somewhat higher copper prices before the end Of the year than those prevailing; that every cent per pound advance in the price of the metal is a clear and substantial gain in earnings per share of stock because the price of the metal is the most im- portant single factor determining profits and price of the stocks.

Bennett, is old line Conservative and extreme high tariff man.
 It would seem that in Canada as well as Great Britain the Conservatives trying to get away from their high tariff record. This is believed to be necessary because in both coun- tries there many low tariff men among the Conservatives and because it is recognized that the tide has turned against high tariffs. The feeling is that the Conservatives cannot afford to be identified with extreme protectionist doc Urine if they expect to be successful at the polls. In Great Britain the prevailing opinion seems 10 be that the next Conservative leader will be the ex-Isberal Winston Churchill, free trader.

Farmer and Tariff.
fMilwaukee Journal. )

Now and then somebody, such Dr. H. C. Taylor of the Washington Department of Agri culture, gets up and does tell the farmer what his trouble is. At the base of the disparity between the purchasing power of the farmers dollar and that of the dollar of industry" Dr Taylor had the courage to say the other day lis the protective tariff whose burden lies on the farmer to the advantage of industry" ,
 But if any starts to suggest that this tariff ought to be made reasonable and fair, ht is denounced as "free-trader," and all the party organs says, Hush! hush! We mustn't tall about that" And then they take down the jal and give the farmer another spoonful of the same old applesauce.

for defense, but which speeds capital
cases to prompt decision and punish
ment, the American system has be-
come travesty on justice. The
proposition that two months will be
needed to prepare the appeal in this
case is absurd on its face. The case
is simple one, the points of law
involved are plain, and diligence and
a real desire to secure a decision
within reasonable time would lead to
the presentation of and action upon
the appeal within the time remaining
before the sentence is executed.
Every case of this character that
is delayed Is a menace to the public
security. 1t is clearly recognized by
jurists and by prosecuting officials
and by the public that procrastina-
tion and futile fighting for time In
the face of clearly established guilt
make for the breaking down of the
laws and the encouragement of
crime. Judges and lawyers who look
primarily to the public welfare are
now seeking ways of lessening the
congestion in the courts and the
protraction of appeals. They are
supported by general public demand
for the simp1ification and the short
ening of judicial procedure. New
York statutes may permit such a
proceeding as is now proposed in
this present case. If so, they should
be amended to prevent needless pro-
longation.

this searching of the husbandly pock-
cts after their owner had sunk into
slumber?
Any small change that might be
found, according to the popular legend.
belonged to the searcher. Finders
are keepersr was the slogan. Now
and then a husband rebelled, to the
extent Of some grouchy remarks, but
mostly the wives "got away with it,"
both f1guratively and literally.
Now, according to the Chelsea de-
cision, all that is to be changed. With
precedent staring her in the face, a
wife scarcely will dare to approach
the communal pocket or pocketbook
with grasping hands. If she does so,
the husband may restrain her to the
extent of using reasonable force"
In other words, a mans pockets,
whether resting against his manly
underpinnings or on the back OF
chair, are sacred to himself alone, and
may not be ruthlessly violated. This
will come as good news to many men,
and yet the higher reaches of pocket
philosophy call for yet another de-
cision, namely. that all moneys be held
by we'll married folk in equity, and
that sums be drawn therefrom at will,
the common sense and restraint of
both parties to the agreement being
the only judge in the court of love.
