Alaska's schools have increased in number than @ per cent, in the last ten years.

ANSWERING HEFLIN.

The Montgomery, Ala. Advertiser declaring itself in favor of Gov. Al Smith for the Demo- cratic nomination for President has editorially given briefly what it considers "an on the part of Alabama Democrats to Senator lief lins fanatical outbursts in the Senate Dealing with prohibition and religion, the Advertiser said the former question:
 His tGov. Smths) extremely moder- ate views on this question are the same in principle the views of every Pres- dent from Jefferson to Wilson, and of every Democratic candidate for President except Bryan. In what respect it be shown. then that this mans attitude the mooted temperance question is fundamentally and historically undemo cratic
 On the religious question the paper said:
 The constitution prescrbes the
 igous test for public office. Is the present time not an ideal time to test the character and patriotism of Roman Catholic President? Would not it mean great deal to the peace, secur- ity and happiness of the American peo pie to get that perennial doubt forever behind them?
 In his speech on the floor of the Senate, answering Senator Heflin's regrettable and un- warranted attack upon Gov. Smith, Senator Rob inson made very fine answer to the fiery Ala baman saying:
 do not believe in excluding can didate account of his religion. do I believe in nominating account of his religion. I believe MT. President that who is Cath ollie has just much right to apply for the favor of his party associates who is Methodist Baptist, and believe that when you deny that right you deny a fundamental principle of this Government.
 Of course, Senator Robinson is correct in his contention Prescription account of religion is something absolutely repugnant to the prn- ciples of American institutions And in religious prescription lies not only party disaster but national calamity well.
