opposing the amendment, he SAID that
he WIGS drawing to some extent upon
his IMAGINATION. as he had learned to
do in China.
The first suggestion at the hearing
today that the whole question be sub
mittcd to A referendum OF the people
of Washington was made by Mr.. LORD
Representative Dyer OF Missouri acting
chairman of the committee. remarked
that he did not think the question at
present was so much one whether the
people of the District wanted to vote
as il was of the duty of Congress to
give them the right to vote. Mr.. Dyer
is the author of the pending amend
ment for national representation.
1892 Law Is Cited.
Mr.. LLOYD said that he was against
the amendment. first. In behalf OF all
American citizens who. as try to Go
put the interests Of the country first
and recognize that our Federal Gov
ernment has in this area interests
which are supreme and should. there
fore be exclusive and undisturbed by
any purely local influences"
The best thing to do. In the opinion
of MIR. Ardiaans. would be to return
to the law of 1902. which gave local
self-government TO the District. He
thought that the Federal Government
should have home of its own with
out any chance Of being interrupted by
politics.
Miss Reece said that she was against
the amendment because she thought
the District should have the highest
type Of government
Il am willing to sacrifice my vote for
the good of the country" said Miss
Reece. Any one who wants to vote
can live in Maryland and Virginia
Anyhow. favor a referendum on this
question before you give it to the peo-

The Master and the Ship.
Seattle Times.l

It isn't necessary to be deep sea sailor man to sense something of the attachment that an elderly master mariner must have for the stout ship that has been long under his command. Those who have come into the years of maturity realize if they are the right kind of people, an increasing fondness for the town in which they live, the old home the old friends the scenes and surroundings to which their daily habits have become happily adjusted.
 So it is that sympathetic interest is stirred by the plan of Capt. c. S. Cochran to spend the remainder of his days in the good old cutter Bear, cruising about the and visiting the out-of-way ports of the world. Veterans both of the United States Coast Guard service and now retired from active duty it is trick to imagine that master and ship equally reluctant to sep arate The Federal Government having indicated unwlingness to provide for further upkeep of the Bear, Capt. Cochran has declared his eag- erness to buy her for his own, so that i've may pass the evening of our lives together"
 Both Capt. Cochran and the Bear well known in Seattle and Puget Sound whence they have sailed many annual cruise into the farther reaches of the Arctic. The Bear, we would surmise, is somewhat the younger of the two. She launched in 1873, and when she returned from her first historic service in relief of the Greedy expedition in 1884 the youth who in later years to command her was mid shipman at Annapolis.
 Everyone will hope that Capt. Cochran gets his wish and comes into ownership of the Bear. Only feature of the plan he outlines is subject to doubt. The Captain says their later cruises will be through the South Seas but we may not count on such restriction. Almost in- stinctiyely, we would say, both master and ship will be heading again into the north.

 Fear of the influence of the Vatican in American politics and government in the event Catholic elected President of the United States ridiculed by J. Martin Miller, former United States Consul General and well known writer for newspapers and magazines, in the course of interview with reporter for the Chattanooga Times, March 31. Mir Miller is a Methodist
 'It is an insult to the United States and to American citizens to say that the nation would be ruled by the Vatican in case member of the Roman Catholic Church should become Presi- dent" MT. Miller said. However" he continued, "f had much intolerance and ignorance certain people to think have, had better fight it out possible and end for all time the un-American spirit contrary to our Constitution"
 Mr Miller recalled that two Catholics had held the post of Premier of Canada-Sir Wilfred Laurier and Sir John Thompson-and that they had received the votes of Protestants we'll as Catholics The question of their religious afilia- tions, IF. Miller said not publicly discussed in the political campaigns in whichSthey engaged. "The Vatican did not swallow the Dominion of Canada during the incumbency of Sir Wifred Laurier," Mr Miller commented. The election of Protestant President of France was also than 60OO00 Protestants in that country of near ly 40,000,000 people,, he said. Does the United States have more intolerance among it's people than Canada or France?"

SALVATION ARMY DRIVE.

The Salvation Army is conducting its annual drive in Juneau for funds for the coming year. Major Carruthers is here from Wrangell assisting the local officers of the Army in the work. It is announced that it is not the purpose to collect much money this year was asked for last year. More needed last year for the pur- pose of building the hall Willoughby Avenue.
 There should be generous response to the Salvation Army's needs No organization in the country makes money go further and brings bet ter results than this organization. That is one why it is always able to be modest in its requests for funds. It has set the amount that Juneau will be asked for at $1,O00. That sum should be quickly forthcoming. It is not large when the work performed is taken into account
 Major Carruthers pays just tribute to the local officers of the Salvation Army when he says their work in this vicinity has been notably efficient and beneficial. Capt. and Mrs. Edwards have won the respect of all the people by theii zeal and faithfulness in we'll doing

COOLIDGE ON JACKSON.

The rugged figure of Andrew Jackson accepted last week by President Coolidge, behalf of the Nation, to join the solemn circle of bronze and stone likenesses of the great which stand under the dome of the Capitol.
 In accepting the statue of "Old Hickory from the State of Tennessee as contribution to Sta tuary Hall, Mir. Coolidge paid tribute to Jackson as one who exemplifed the unlimited opportuni- ties offered to men, regardless of seeming hand caps.
 History aceords to Jackson "one of the high positions among the great names of coun- try" Mir Coolidge said He gave to the na- tionastic spirit through loyalty to the Union a strength which decisive for many years His management of our foreign affairs such to wholesome respect for Government and the rights of our citizens He left the Treasury without obligation and with a surplus.
 Coming up from the people, he demonstrated that there is sufficient substance in self govern ment to solve the important public questions and rise superior to perplexing crisis Like true pioneer. he broke through all restraints and impediments into which he born, and leaving behind the provincialisms and prejudices of his day, pushed out toward a larger freedom and a sounder government, carrying the country with him."
 The President sketched 5aeason's boyhood, young manhood, and the period of his service in Congress and President, speaking of his high and turbulent temper his disregard of obstacles, and his notable military exploits
 In speaking of the pioneer spirit of the early settlers, President Coolidge said ''the frontier long since has disappeared, the opportunity for ex- ploration into infrequented land is gone, seek additional territory. but the ambition to enter unchartered regions of industry of enterprise, of social relations and of thought continues with increasing fervor.
 We would miss much of the significance and meaning of the history of the United States un- less took into account this outstanding qua- ity" he said. 'Our whole outlook has been great ly influenced by it. It is the complete antithesis of all system of class and caste The peo- pie who came here were seeking freedom of action and freedom of mind. The great revelation of our country has been that not born to servtude and obscurity They born to all the possibilities of glorious station which can be by their achieving"
 President Coolidge also praised Jacksons af- lection for his wife, Rachael, in whose benign presence he said the turbulent warrior all submission

that they have the interest and backing of their party members.
 It is particularly important that Republicans should vote in the primary. The Republican Party of Alaska is-or ought to be--a part of the Republican Party of the Nation. It will have two delegates to the National Convention where Republican Party platform of principles will be prepared and where the leadership of the party for the next four years will be determined. And, even more important, the party candidates for Territorial offices and for the Legislature will be selected.
 There is wide field of candidates seeking these Federal and local positions in the Repub- lican Party. They represent widely divergent views< They include supporters of all the ious factions and theories of government that divide Republcanism in the country The voters of Alaska ought to do their part in trying to unify the Republican Party of the Nation and to make Alaska Republicans part of that party. That only result if all Republicans vote.
