PUBLIC OFFICIALS ASSUME GREAT
RESPONSIBILITY

In no presidential year has there been less I'M
easiness on the part of the general public as to
what is going to happen to the country
From the standpoint of being investors and
drawing interest stocks, bonds or savings
bank accounts, the majority of our citizens are
capitalists" that is, they have money that is
earning them money.
Both candidates for president fully realize this
fact as do most candidates for other public offices
Political bushwhacking Of industry is less pop
ular than ever because every blow that is given
industry is direct attack upon the life savings
of many small investors. The capital for our
basic lines of industry longer comes from
few wealthy men but from millions of men,
women and children.
Business in the United States has to be con-
Quoted upon such large scale today that no one
man or group of men have enough money to
conduct it alone in the past.
For that reason most of our business is owned
by the great mass of the people who share in the
profits and the losses.
It is for this reason that all government, local
and national must be the most stable.
Our public officials who have the laW-making
and regulating power in their hands are virtually
the custodans of the nations wealth. Just i as
the executives of an industry are responsible to
the stockholders for profits and losses so are
laws and policies which encourage or discourage
industrial stability with resulting profit or loss
to the citizens of this nation
Men qualified to hold public office realize this
fact today more clearly than ever before and for
this reason do not make as many business dis
turbing proposals as in the past They appreciate
more fully their duty toward all of citizens
rather than special service to any particular
group or class.

PATENT MEDICINE POLITICS.. pAssINGI

NO one industry in this nation is sufficient nm
TO itself, nor would Our Country enjoy it's present
prl,estlge and prosperity without Industrial sta.
bility. ''' '"i ''''
we have an interlocked system which involves
government, agriculture, transportation. man
ufacturing, banking, insurance power develop
ment mining including oil production business
OF all kinds, the utilization of many natural re-
sources and public improvements.
1t IS mistake to think that any branch of DIR
social or industrial life can be crippled without
eventually affecting all business, employment
and investment
II one cuts off even the little finger the whole
body feels it and maximu meficiency of the hum
an machine is essened
And so it is with business Hurt the large or
small manufacturer, farmer or individual and the
effects reflected in greater or les degree through
out our whole industrial and social structure.
Business today is balanced just as nicely as
the human system and tampering with it should
be attempted only be experts and then with the
greatest caution.
AS the people realize this fact more clearly
they will looS with increasing disfavor upon
patent medicine politics. which experiment
with our whole economic structure Just as they
now 40 upon many so-called cure-alls for human
Ills which for years were peddled street. corners
and guaranteed to cure everything from a cold
to a tape-worm.

There is great need for putting the brakes
On local taxation" said the Illinois Farmer re-
GENTLY. "By that, we mean state, county and
municipalities. Since 1921 the cost of government
has gone up firm s9,5OO,oOO 900 to S11, 500, OOO
GOO, in spite of the fact that in that time the
national government has reduced it's expendit-
ures 2,O00000,000, which means that states,
counties and local communities have increased
theirs over $3,500,000,000 since 1921
These figures are alarming; in fact it is these
constantly increasing local taxes that add so
heavily to the farmers burden. It will not stop
OF itself and cannot continue without disaster
Probobly there is nothing more certain to help
prosperity and make. for the happiness of the
people than to stop this local extravaganza It
will help everybody"
1t is logical that high local taxes account for
a great deal of whatever agricultural depression
our farmers are suffering. Here is a chance for
real farm relief on practical and economic
basis. Extravagant taxation has gone on TO the
POINT where it is menace

WALTER STEPHENS NOW LO-
 GATED AT CENTRALLY, WASH.

Walter H. Stephens, former we'll known oldtimer, who left the Nixon section a couple of years ago, is now located at Centralia, Washington. In letter to FF. c. H. Spence the old timer states that he started for Alas ka last spring, but did not make the grade. He says he met Charlie King on the boa when he left Seattle. King was going to the Cassiar, up in British Columbia, and 1 went in there with +hi1ns ssits. just got out of there about nine months ago. We did not make any money in there, but found little gold and broke about even on it. The Cassiar is tough country. It cost us 10 cents pound freight to get our stuff out, about 100 miles from Telegraph creek.
 "I bought a car when I got back to. Seattle, and have been busy trying to learn to drive it. 1 have had one wreck so far. The car went in the ditch with me one night, and when 1t stopped it was on it's back with all four wheels up. It did not hurt me at all, but I had my aunt with me and it bruised her up quite badly, but did not break any of her bones.'
 Jack Nixon, another we'll known oldtimer, is in Vancouver just nov. says MT. Stephens, who says he also met Tom and Mike Connolly during a visit at Marysville, near Everett.

PRIZES OFFERED TO SCHOOL
 CHILDREN FOR BEST ESSAYS

Ii is a matter of general interest that the First National Bank of Fair banks has offered cash prizes to our school children for the best essays on the subject, ''The Establishment of the United States Mint
 1t seems likely that most of them will want to compete, for besides the prizes they have the inspiration of a stirring picture by the great painter, John w. Dunsmore, showing Presi- dent and Mrs. George Washington, Secretary Jefferson and Secretary Hamilton inspecting the first coins to be struck in the new mint at Phila- delphia, in the autumn of 1792. A copy of this picture has been present ed to the local school by the First Ma tional Bank of Fairbanks.
 For the best essay, $10 will be awarded, $7.5O for the second, and $5 for the third
 A group of citizens who will be an- nounced later will judge the essays and award the prizes.
 A uniform currency is fundamental to every sort of business transaction. How could we ever buy, sell, hire and earn without coins whose value we know? Yet that is the condition the early Americans were in.,until the es- tablishment of the Mint gave them dependable United States coins to carry on their business. Therefore, this great picture of Dunsmore's calls our attention to the beginnings of our national prosperity. It is well worth the close study of our boyss and girls.

AIRPLANE PASSENGER AND
 EXPRESS SERVICE BETWEEN
 SEATTLE AND ALASKA COAST

SEATTLE.-Daily airplane pas senger and express service between Seattle and Southeastern Alaska by which the trip will be made in few hours will sart April I by means of three giant 14-passenger amphibian p anes.
 These plans were disclosed today by Charles V. Eakin, president and general manager of the Union Air lines, who has been in Seattle during recent weeks planning for the pro- posed service. "This means that he business man in Juneau may arrive in nine hours and from Ketchikan in six hours," Eakin declared. "Passen- gers from the north may spend the. night in Seattle and then be in Los Angeles the next evening by means
 f the West Coast Air Transport and affiliated services" "'
 On the Seattle-Alaska run a, plane will start each morning, from, each end of the route. Landings in Alaska will be water landings and. in Seattle. at Boiling Field, which will be operat- ing headquarters for the service Con- struction of hangars at Boiling Field starts today. Eakim said. Capital for the Seattle Alaska service has been oversubscrihed here in Seattle by can- lerymen and others to whom l have presented the proposal"
 The company also plans new triangular service between Seattle and Vancouver and Victoria. Aircraft for both services have been ordered, referring to which Eakin said: "The five Sikorsky amphibian planes we have ordered for these two services cost s60,O00 apiece. On the Alaska run, which we propose to maintain on daily schedule from April to Novem- Der I, we shall have on each ship al licensed marine navigator in addition to an air pilot and mechanic. The planes will be built so that the cen tral portion will be boat and there will be no pontoons except laterail ones on each side to aid in balancing. the rcaft. As a matter of fact the planes will be able to taxi on the sur= face of the water at 60 miles an hour as easily as they fly. Eachsplase' will have twin motors, either motor being capable of. flying the ship eaailyg at load. We shalt supply seat- ing space for eight passengers, on each of the three planes sensth4 Alas-- ka route."
 The planes will have aa crnisingI speed of about 11O miles an hdur and a maximum speed of 1855 miles. The planes will fly low, Eakin said, fol- lowing the, inside passage All planes will be equipped with radio and will be in continuous communication with stations on both ends
