KHAN RIDING HERD ON MEMBERS.

The Birmingham Sunday News and Age Her aid is authority for the statement that at meet ing between Imperial Wizard Dr. Hiram w. Evans of the Klan with high State officials of the Alabama Realm, pr. Evans announced to the as sembled Klansmen that any member of the or ganization who voted for Gov. AT Smith of New York, in case he received the Democratic Presi- dential nomination, would be banished from the order" This makes pr. Evans claim that the Klan, organization, not politically active look foolish.
 One of it's main weapons in stock being prescription. which is alike applied racial, religious and national grounds, it is not surpris- ing that its dictators would turn it against the organizations membership. The element of surprise might to be that the situation has become so desperate from the Klan view point that it is necessary to threaten members with "banishment" to stay the tide that has set strongly toward Gov. Smith. And if it seeks to carry the threat into effect in the far Southern States the national campaign of 1928 will witness final disintegration of the order in those commonweaths. The old line Demo- crats of the South may fight Gov. Smiths nom ination, opposing it with all their strength but if he is nominated no organization be it Klan or church, can prevent most of them from casting their ballots for him. This talk of abandonment of party in the South if the Klan's fight on Gov, Smith fails in the national convention is bunkum, designed for away from home consumption for the sole purpose of bluffing the Smith follow ing into any sort of political compromise. So far it has been total failure and there are no indications that Dr. Evans and co-workers, even though they close herd their members up to the polls on election days will get anywhere with it.

WHEN OTHERS SHALL FAIL.

British Columbia through it's Provincial Leg islature has petitioned the Ottawa Government to open negotiations for the transfer, by pur- chase or otherwise, of Southeastern Aaska-The Panhandle-from the United States to Canada Our nearest Canadian cousins evidently appre- ciate their next door neighbors in Alaska They seem to have realization of the value of the Panhandle and further, to have liking for it. To wish another to become part of your family is after all the sncerest form of compliment and the highest kind of hattery. For their graciousness we indebted, and appreeiative of the compliment.
 Alaskans however we are sure prefer to re main simple Americans. Of course, did we have to become other than that, our next choice would be Canadians for there is little blood difference So Alaskas vote on the question, if one is al lowed must be to remain confirmed in our present nationality. We that the rest of Alaska would be lonesome without the Pan handle True it often times refers to it more or less slurringly the "tail of the dog" But after a dog has possessed such gorgeous caudal appendage for so many years it must feel lost, find navigation difficult and even wagging hard to achieve were it to be taken off.
 While the ways of far away Washington are sometimes hard to fathom and predictions go sadly awry we feel that the coldness expressed by the Federal Government is not assumed, and that it will say nay to any firtations ap- -proach Ottawa may attempt. But should this assumption prove erroneous and instead of spurn- ing Washington should respond to the siren song of Canadas statesmen, Alaska still has last hope, a card in the hole which should prove unbeatable When all other hope shall have van ished, the virtuous people of this moral and up- right home of Prohibition can turn for help to the great and all-powerful Anti-Saloon League with an appeal that they be rescued from fall inq intn he of Demon Rum which stalks abroad in the land of Canada With it behind us and who doubts it would be under such circumstances, there is chance that we could lose

Heroes of Boyhood.
(New York Times. ]

The cultural value of a feat like Charles A Lindberghs in flying the Atlantic comes to a new estimate when one considers his overwhelm- ing choice by the schoolboys of Beleville, N J. whose school supervisor asked them who they would like to be. As each boy sat down to cast his ballot there must have arisen before him glamourous figures; the votes show it. There is President Coolidge, Commanders Chief of the Army and Navy, orator to thousands, dwelling every day in a white marble palace. There is Gene Tunney the heavyweight champion of the world There is Thomas A. Edison, who invents things besides which toys fustian; and Henry Ford, who has "a trilion dollars" There is General Pershing, who a magnificent uni form, covered with medals. There is Mussoini, before whose power entire nation renders homage.
 Yet with all these to choose from, 363 boys out of 6S2 said they would rather be Lindbergh if they weren't themselves. And perhaps if their real feeling had been expressed they would have gone the limit and admitted they would rather be Lindbergh than themselves. This young defeated no Dempseys; he led armies; if he ever made a home run, it isn't recorded; the phonograph and electric lights owe him nothing: and he isn't rich. But more than half the Belle vile boys thought of that miraculous flight above the clouds and the sea, that youthful face and figure that highly commendable disinterest in girls and pumped their ballots for him. And perhaps it is not too much sermonzing to say that, above any man of our times Colonel Lind bergh has done more to put healthy ambitions and the tradition of courage and fine department into the minds of boys; and that his influence is better than such heroes Of youth as Napoleon or Buffalo Bill. w
 Two of the boys cast their votes for My Dad" He will appreciate it, find fault with the fact that he the lowest in the baloting For it is the lot of fathers not to be heroes; it would make them uncomfortable if they were

A Fiction.
Cincinnati Enanlror.l


 Everybody has heard it-that Presidential election years bad for business. The New York World has gathered data which appear fully to prove that this popular belief is un- founded
 These statistics disclose that since 1880 there have been twelve Presidential elections. and that in six of these years business was better than normal; in year approximately normal, and ill five years below normal
 There is nothing to show that election and it's prospects of victory for either party have determining influence the trend of business at these fouryear intervals, says The World, which illustrates this conclusion by pointing to 1908 when the election of the con servative Taft taken for granted Business then was depressed, while in 1912, with the Republican Party split in two with Wilson condition. However, in 1920 and 1924, when the conservatives seemed certain to win, and did, business was poor.
 The World properly concludes that the fuc- tuations in these years obviously due to other than political causes.
 This being the case, no one should worry over business prospects during the coming Presi- dential contest. The country at present is gen. orally prosperous. There vastly disturb ing questions at issue between the parties. The economic probabilities, so far as be esti- mated are all in favor of continued prosperity As The World concludes, there differences between the parties that should operate to upset the national economic equilibrium.

NORTH DAKOTA
DELEGATES AT
KANSAS CITY
Hoover Nomination May Mean
Democratic Success in
State This Fall
BY NJ. NJ. OPPEG ARD

NHSSONA0tCu 1858 Ot0ll VTUVTI
Kansas City, Mo-, June 11--North
Dakota delegates to the Republican
national convention arrived here to-
day by train and automobile, some
OF them with warning Of possible
Democratic success next fall in
their state if Hoover is nominated.
Three delegates who came in on
the special train from the Twin
Cities that also brought the Min
nesota delegation said the nomina-
ton Of Hoover by the Republicans
and Smith by the Democrats would
mean a ''cat and dog fight" in that
state in November.
These three delegates, all Nom
partisan leaguers. are Z. G. Larson
Of Valley City. H. B. Wingcrd Of
Williston and Mrs. Marie Durey of
Glendale.
Larson said the attitude of Smith
on the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence
waterway project, in event of a
Hoover-Smith contest, would have
an important bearing on the fall
election. Should Smith come out in
favor of the project, he would have
"a very good chance of defeating
Hoover or man of his principles"
Larson said. If he opposed the
project, almost any Republican
candidate could win in Larson's
opinion.
North Dakota delegates were as
sembling today at their headquar-
tiers at the Westgatc hotel, prepara-
tory to caucus for organization
and election Of a national commit
teewoman to succeed Mrs. Fred =.
