SMITH AGAIN PROVES STRENGTH.

In the passing of another election day in New York State there has again come evidence of the great strength that Gov. Al Smith possesses in his home commonwealth. This is found in the defeat of a proposed amendment to the State Constitution for a four-year term for Governor which would have required the State election to be held in the years that national elac- tons are staged Gov. Smith originally sponsored a four-year term for Governors of New York but he was not willing that the term should coincide with the Presidential tenure of office. He con tended that many issues enter into the State elections having suprerhe local importance, which would be 10 a great extent subordinated during national campaign years with the result that the average voter, appealed to by party leaders for support would yield out of sentiment where the Presidency is involved to the disad- vantage of the State ticket. In the defeat of the proposed amendment his position is seen to he approved by majority of the voters of the State.
 Inasmuch the Republican Party retained control of the State Assembly, it is not too much to conclude that the defeat of the amend ment, which was submitted to the voters by a Republican Assembly, was . personal victory for Gov Smith It was supported by the Republican organization, the party having endorsed it at it's recent State convention and it's campaign speak CTS urging it's adoption

Curtis of the Klaw.
(New York World.)

, New fOfK WOflu)
 Kansas is first of the States to present a for nal candidacy for the G. O. F. Presidential nom ination. Charles Curtis. a Representative in Con gress thirteen years, Senator nearly twenty-ohe now permits, having previously forbdden the formation of Curtis-for- President clubs and ac- cordingly they are formed with true kansan celerity It is further announced that Mr. Gurus is not favorite son to be dropped on the steenth ballot; that he is not stalking-horse for any other candidate. It is for other men and other States to suggest the possibility of nomination for Vce-President.
 On March 4, 1929, MT. Curtis will be older than was any American President at his lnaugura- ton Day He is year and a day older than Lowden two years older than Hughes, i've years older than Dawes, fourteen years older thah Hoover-but in full vigor and good health Al most of course he is lawyer
 With thirty-four years of Federal service to his credit Senator Curtis is a flnlshed poltlciah who has well earned his post as majority leader in the Senate He has been faithful to Mir Cool jdge even to the extent of appearing conserva- tive in Washington, while by the banks oi the raging Kaw he is as sympathetic with the woes of the farmer as Senator Capper himseif. Bu' people may as well understand that If he IS nom mated 1t will be as the farmers friend. not as the conservative. With both Dawes and Lowdeh somewhat embarrassed by Big Bilr Thompson $ bulging ambitions, he is upon that basis not all impossible contender
 Anyhow one hat is in the ring MT Gurus is assured that MT. Coolidges do not choose means tI will not" He would like the fres- dency and says so frankly. So much IS re- |freshing.

FINES FOR GAME LAW VIOLATIONS

In a recent bulletin, the Department of Agri- culture noted that fines assessed against persons convicted of violating the Alaska Game Law have been so heavy as to make the operations of the Alaska Game Commission self-supportng. It cites specific instances to show how this is accom- plished, follows
 As an instance of what has been
 accomplished may be mentioned the work
 of the river boat Beaver, after it had
 been operating on the Yukon system
 only two months The Warden using
 the boat has been enabled to seize furs
 valued at approximately $9,000 and to
 collect back license fees and obtain. court
 fines totaling $1,300. The cost of con
 struction of this boat which was put
 into operation only last June, was
 slightly less than s10,o00 so that't has
 already more than paid for itself. The
 furs seized were mainly beaver skins H.
 legally possessed.
 The cost for salary and travelling ex-
 penses of one deputy warden for short
 period was s1 650. and during the per
 iod he was on duty he seized furs and
 obtained court fines totaling $3,700
 Again a warden who operated on the
 Kuskokwim River system seized skins
 chiefly beaver, having a value in excess
 of S1O000 and collected back and cur
 rent license fees and obtained court
 fines that amounted to about s5,000
 This official therefore. has paid for him
 self and his operating costs about three
 times over
 Possibly the Department feels the need of justifying the expenditures which it cites Il can hardly be that 1t feels any particular pride in the financial penalties inflicted on those who have run afou of the law and regulations. Il can justly be pleased with the efficiency of its operatives and not gloat over punishment dealt out to the laws volators. The fact is that there is no reason from standpoint of public policy why game patrol should have to be self-support- ing It shouldn't be required to show financial profit to justify it's existence. And in the last analysis, the warden patrol officer who keeps his district in good order, conducts his opera tions in such manner as to gain general public support that is reflected in voluntary observance of the regulations with minimum of arrests
