NEW YORK REGISTRATION STARTLES
 POLITICIANS

The Greater New York registration this year exceeds that of 1924 by one-third In other words about 525000 more votes will be east in that City this year than cast four years ago.
 The New York Times thinks this tremendously Increased registration in New York augurs we'll ever, that large part of the registration will be for Hoover New York papers declare that the Democrats better organized to get their voters registered than were the Repubi- cans and that they are better organized to get them to the polls.
 It is admitted by all that the increased reg istration from 1,500O00 to more than 20OO 900 in New York City has startled the politicians
 The increased registration presented the problem of getting the vote boiled between 6 a. m and D. m, the statutory time for keep ing the polls open for receiving votes Petitions were sent to the Governor to convene the Leg islature in extra session to provide for keeping the polls open until midnight. But it was finally decided to place all the voting machines in Manhattan and Brooklyn, to use paper ballots in Bronx Queens and Richmond Boroughs and create new precincts and provide additional vot- ing places in other precincts separating the voters alphabetically. It figured that there would not be time enough to write new poll books for the 2.OOO new precincts that would be required if the separate voting places were not provided in a large part of the City

The fairies stand between these who please them and the wicked and mischief making beings-and grant many favors besides including, and again, a peep into the future And it was to court the fairies that

 The Scotch and Irish look upon Halloween as happy time to persuade agreeaby courted and well pleased fairies to reveal futurity, and English and Americans have been generous with themselves in their appropriation of Scotch and Irish customs.

HOOVER AND THE LIQUOR QUESTION.

Herbert Hoover was opposed to making the Eighteenth Amendment part of the Constitution and when it had been ratified and the Volstead Act was pending he argued vigorously in favor of allowing 275 per cent beer 10 be manu- factured, transported and sold. He declares even now, that Prohibition is an experiment. and thinks it ought to have further trial before being thrown into the discard He hopes it may not have to be discarded That is his atti- tude as it is being related to the people, aside from the Methodist Church Conferences and a few other places where they paint him to be as arid the fanatics.
 MT. Hoovers position is after all, a sort of indictment of the Harding and Coolidge Ad- ministrations. IL is admission that Prohibition has not been given fair trial notwithstanding the eight years that President Harding tnd Presi- dent Coolidge did everything that the Anti Saloon League told them to do. We wonder what MT Hoover would do that has not been tried Perhaps he would use the army and navy But that would mean that they both would have to he vastly enlarged in order to get enough officers to preside at couft-martial trials

An Unwarranted Attack.
Valdez Miner.)

lValdez Miner)
 In his address here last Saturday night Dele gate Sutherland made attack upon Anthony J. Dimond, the Democratic candidate for Terri torial Senator. Had Mir Sutherland based his opposition to MT. Dimond upon his party af- filiations, he would have done no more than might have been expected from a disciple of the opposite party. Had he brought forth records or legislative action the part of Mir. Dmond that were detrimental to the welfare of the Territory, his attack would have been justified but he failed to produce any such evidence Not only In Valdez but in every other community where he has spoken he has asked of the voters the defeat of MT. Dimond other ground than that he personally does not like Mr Dmond To bolster up this extremely weak cause he brings forth the Fish Trust" and pictures MT Dimond as a helpless victim in it's octopus-Iike tentaeles. This is bunk. MT. Sutherland knows It and so do his hearers. MT. Dimond in his four years in the Territorial Senate was the author of more constructive legislation for AL aska than MT. Sutherland has fathered in all his years in the Legislature and in Congress ActIat- ed by personal spite MT. Sutherland made an uhwarranted attack upon man his superior in all that goes to make up a gentleman and a good citizen and we believe it will have no other effect than to alenate many from Mir Sutherlands own following.

 , The shoe is on the other foot now, and children read things they don't consider fit for their parents to read, and go places it would shock them to have their parents go.
 A man hates to play bridge with woman who talks all through the game, but he hates worse to play with one who gives all her attention to the game and talks only when he's made a dumbbell play.
 A brute is a husband who thinks his wife is so attractive that load ing her down with fine clothes and jewelry would be as silly as painting the lily.
 An ideal wife is one who doesn't think it is simply awful the amount of sugar her husband puts in his coffee because she likes to take hers without any.
 A past is what the owner would consider a great pleasure to for get and what his enemies take a lot of pleasure in recalling in op- perfume moments.
 The most helpful thing any man can do around the house is to put his hand in his pocket and pull out whatever amount his wife says it is she needs-or wants.
 She's made so many of them that it sometimes seems as if Dame Nature must be very partial to homely faces and skinny calves.
