 Two Kinds Of Government
 He declared that the Territory has the cholee of two kinds oi Recommendations Rule, self ad- ministration and government from Washington by bureaus.

The Republi- can Party's National platform merely promises a continuance of the present Administration Alas kan policy of rule by bureaus, and the party's candidate for Delegate is pledged to support that plat fcrm," hc pointed out.
 Ctcs Fisherief Case
 He declared that his opponent did not want Alaska to have Home Rule, citing the case of the fisher ies industry to prove his conten tion. He quoted from speeches made by him to the effect that he was not in favor of giving the Territory full form of Territorial Government MT.

 He declared that the Bureau of Fisheries was the most extreme instance of government by bureau. and cited the U. S. Bureau of Pub He Roads as the exemplification of the better type and more serv- iceable bureaus.
 Would Remove lnhibitons
 He declared he favored remov- ing every inhibition contained in the organic act. Specifically an- sweripg Sutherland's question if he favored county government for Alaska, he declared he favored the passage of law by Congress to give the Legislature the power to create counties when Alaskans de- sired them. And he asserted that Delegate Sutherland in eight years in office, had never lifted his hand to extend the powers of the local Legislature.
 He digressed briefly to deal with the voting of Indians, and declared that there are a number of highly intelligent Indians who are per

 Their leader, he declared, has told them for years that he would put fish traps out of business. Yet last January he published in the Indian organizations own paper q bill drafted by Judge Wickersham for introduction in Congress giv- Ing the eanneries the right to lease them for four year periods and the further right of renewal that that leader had never criti- cised such a proposal; and that he had been informed that he had even taken it to Washington to get 1t introduced.

He had said atl that time that he was member of the Legislative branch of the Government. He believed then, and believes now, that Ketchikan and other Alaska towns are capa- 1 ble of administering their own affairs. And if I am elected Delegate. I'll be too much occupied with that office to have time to attend to police court af- fairs in Juneau."a he asserted to he accompaniment of applause.
 Need Right Man
 If the people of Alaska want Home Rule. they need a man at Washington who believes in it. They need someone to fight for it. md Delegate Sutherland cannotl 1e depended upon to do 1t, he as- serted in conclusion.
 On several occasions, when MT. irigsby mentioned the name of iov. Alfred F. Smith, the audience lpplauded heartily When he concluded, he received generous applause.

rupt practices of the district attor-
ney's office.
Three mystery witnesses, one said
to be woman widely sought in the

The mystery trio was said to pos
sess pertinent information regarding
the handling of the Julian Petroleum

District Attorney Asa Keyes and
seven others already have been in
dicted for bribery in connection
with the conduct of the Julian case.
The woman who was expected to
appear before the inquisatorial body
was Miss Beulah Wilson. The

torney said today she was ready to
answer any questions.
Since Miss Wilson was the per-
sonal body-guard of Lorraine Wise

Pherson kidnapping investigation, it
was presumed that the jury was TAX

ABOARD HERBERT HOOVER'S
SPECIAL TRAIN ENROUTE TO
PALO ALTO, Nov. ). Herbert
Hoover came home to California to-
day to be among his friends in the
scenes Of his young manhood while
the nation decides at thousands of
ballot boxes whether he is to be
the next president of the United
States.
He will learn at his home on the
campus of Stanford University
whether the colorful career that be,
gan there when both the college and
himself We're young and that has
rounded itself out in all parts of
tie world will come to its climax in
the White House.
California held out her hands to
welcome him home. There was
pride in her greeting If ne is elect
ed he will be the first of Califor-
MIA s sons, though an adopted one,
to occupy the White House. The
west will come into her own if the
ballots are favorable.
Noisily, merrily, with a gay aban-
don, California began her welcome
carly this morning, soon after the
train had crossed the state line.
Crowds gathered to welcome Hoover
home at stops along the way. The
stops We're not so numerous as the
train is literally rushing to Palo
Alto in order that the Republican
candidate may arrive on time. 1t
is making a run seven hours ahead
of the regular scheduled time from
st. Louis.
Candidate Vigorous
The stops included Roseville,
Tracy, Stockton, Sacramento and
Oakland. The train will not enter
San Francisco. Leaving Oakland, it
will go by way of the Dumbarton
cutoff to Palo Alto, where it is
scheduled to arrive at 2:05 p. m.
Pacific coast time
The Hoover whom California well
coined today was a man confident,
clear-eyed and vigorous. His smile
was ready. He repeated to friends
again today his confidence of elec-
tion. He appeared in excellent
health.
The campaign has been trying.
1t has been a different type of cam
paign from that conducted by Gov
ernOr Alfred f. Smith. Hoover's
has been almost "desk' campaign.
He has ventured forth but few times
to take the stump.
He shuns public appearances as
much as possible. He has gone about
this campaign as he did about his
other activities, as an organizer.
Hoover has reputation as
hard worker. He sometimes wears
out his aides on big jobs. This has
been another "job' to him, %
slightly different type of job but
tackled in his usual way.
Hoover is expected to get a royal
welcome when he steps from tho
train at Palo Alto. A host of coll
lege students will be in the crowd
at the station to give him an old
fashioned college rah rah reception.
He and Mrs. Hoover and their SON
Allan, will 90 Immediately to their
home from the station.

Smith In Final
Plea To Farmers
by United Press Leased Wire


NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-A final ap-
peal to the farmers was made by
Gov. Alfred +. Smith in a short
radio speech delivered today from
local broadeasting station.
The Democratic presidential nom
inee outlined proposals he had en-
dorsed for handling the agricultural
problem and argued that his Repub-
ican opponent, Herbert Hoover, and
the Republican party had offered
no solution. The crux of the farm
problem, he said, is the disposal of
surplus crops, a principle which, he
contcnded. was not recognized by
the Republican candidate or plat
form.
Smith ridiculed the idea that
Hoover's proposed extra session of
congress could do any good. He
said Hoover was opposed to the
fundamental principle of farm relief
and that, if elected, the Republican
candidate would not sign a bill en-
bodying principle which he de-
clared to be Estate socialism,
The governor closed his address
with prediction that the farmers
of the country tomorrow will elect
him president.
81 believe tomorrow will bring a
great Democratic victory,' he said,
"and | assure you that that victory
in turn will bring solution of the
agricultural problem that will res
tore prosperity to the farm and pro-
mote the welfare of the entire
country.'

YANKEE DOODLE
PROVES CASKET
FOR AVIATORS
Record Plane Crashes
In Arizona Killing
COllyer and Tucker.
by United Press Leased Wire

PRESCOTT, Ariz., Nov. 8
Motor trouble, which caused the
swift monoplane "Yankee Doodle -
to falter while over rugged sec
tion of Arizona Saturday night on
an attempt TO break the coast to-
coast speed record, was blamed to-
day for the crash which killed Cap
tain c. b. d. Collyer, roundthe-
world flyer, and Harry Tucker
sportsman and capitalist.
The plane appeared over Arizona
| at dusk, after leaving Los Angeles
at 3:29 p. m. Saturday. AS it ap-
preached Prescott, its motor was
| sputtering. A drizzle of rain was
falling and thick clouds scurried
! overhead. The "Yankee Doodle -
| seemed to be losing altitude, but
finally scared upward and passed
J over the divide south of here.
Residents of the district near
Venezier, ID miles to the south, next
head the roar of the ''9ankee
Doodle 50 motor The sound of the
engines still functioning imperfect
ly, passed eastward. There was a
sudden sound of terrific impact,
then an explosion that echoed up
and down the adjacent valleys.
Searchers starting out at dawn
| Sunday over the wooded section
whence the noises came found the
| splintered wreckage of the "Yan-
kee Doodle and the shattered
| bo6iae IF ito oocu,,on+c Tho ooco1ino
tank had exploded, showering por-
tions of the plane over an area 600
feet square. The bodies of Collyer
and Tucker were ripped and torn.
The plane had struck the side of
hill at an altitude of more than
900 feet. 1t had skidded through
growth of trees from the force of
the landing and the effect of the
/ explosion.
The only explanation here was that
Collyer, with a balky motor on his
hands. and in desperate need of a
landing place, had taken his chances
on the mountain side, hoping he
could bring the plane safely to
earth.
nv . " dS lo Iblttt hIiilH
26 miles of the scene of the crash.
So inaccessible is the country
side near NeneZier that pack horses
and mules were used to bring out
the bodies They arrived here last
night.
Open parachutes were attached to
the bodies of the two men, indicat-
ing they had attempted to jump
when they realized their plane
would crash. The fact that landing
flares had been released showed
they had been searching for a land
ing place.
The Yankee Doodle was holder
of the speed records for crossing the
continent in both directions. 1t had
made the west to east flight in IS
hours and so minutes, and the New
York to Los Angeles flight in "a
hours 52 minutes. 1t was in an at
tempt to lower the former record
that Collyer and Tucker started
their fatal flight.
Tucker owned the Yankee Doodle.
Art GOebel, winner of the Dole race
to Hawaii last summer, was the
pilot on the planes record west to
east flight. Collyer became associa-
ted with Tucker as pilot of the
flight in which, together, they broke
the record for east to west flight.
Mrs. Matte johnson, aunt of
Tucker, left Santa Monica, Calf,
by automobile yesterday and is ex-
ected here late today.
