SEPTEMBER MOURN

The Chronicle should advocate that all Territorial elections be held in Seattle, expenses to be paid by the Alaska Chamber of Commerce of Seattle.
 Even the hidebound conserva- tive admits that the advance ment of election date to Septem- Der will mean the throwing down the bars of our franchise and permitting wharf rats and what not, including nonresident can ners, to dominate and dictate our political affairs. That they will illegally claim residence in Alaska and Washington at the same time is not to be doubted. They have been above the law in other instances; they will be the same in this instance. Voters in Alaska-voters in Washington. Fine business for Washington

JUST SOME FOOLISHMENT

Advancement of election day is advisable because there are many, particularly in the north ern divisions who are compelled to leave for the states on busi- ness at the end of the seasons work and who, while among the heaviest tax payers are not per mitted to exercise their right of franchise. It even appears that it would be still better if Con- gress should set the time for the general election in early September instead of October as suggested in the legislature Chronicle.

position of one who represents only one of those two sides and the court which stands between the two. He only knew one star to guide court, and that was absolute fairness. He said he could only promise to be fair and do his best as a lawyer in making decision and, in most cases, turn the matter of decid- ing as to the facts over to the jury.
 In summing up this phase of
 his talk, Judge Harding said he
 bore no malice toward those who had charged that he was not an Alaskan. He said it was legitimate political argument
 before his confirmation by the
 Senate, but he said, 'it is a cold cinder now" He declared that he had become an Alaskan by adoption-the only way one not born here could do so. He said he would never have come to
 Alaska if he had not liked the Territory and the people that live in it. He declared that he will take the oath of office as fudge of the District Court as an Alaskan and perform the
 duties of the office as one.

When I take the oath of office as United States District Judge it will be as an Alaskan and I shall perform the duties of that office as an Alaskan" " declared Judge Justin W. Hard ing, whose nomination for Dis trict Judge was confirmed re- gently and was guest of honor at a Juneau Chamber of Com merce luncheon.
 Judge Harding declared that he realized the grave, import ance to the people of Alaska is the United States District Judge. The rights of the peO- pie to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, he said, is depend ent in large measure upon the ability and integrity of the court, and it's fairness and i'm partiality.

OWN YOUR OWN HOME
By E. s. HungerfOrd.

From the beginning we are taught that we are American ci- tizens, to love and reverence our our country, it's government and it's institutions. We are drilled in various subjects at school, one of which is of especial interest. Our country's history. We fol- low with eager interest, we thrill with pride to think that our forefathers were new with back bone; we exalt when we read of the hardy spirits, who, after striving for years to get a satis- factory form of government, fin ally, rise in rebellion and cast off the shackles of tyranny.
 We follow the flood of covered wagons westward, and in spirit, are with the pioneers who had listened to the tales brought back by hardy hunters and trap pers. Tales of an immense country to the westward, broad valleys, virgin forests; unused and free for the taking.
 The cly of land! landl free land! went up, heard to the four corners of the world. The tide of settlement began to flood. The only prize offered was land and the privileges and benefits to be derived from the owner ship thereof. But it was sufnci- ent.
 This wondrouS prize drew westward, not only the hardier spirits from the eastern colon- les but the best blood from Eu- rope. People who were willing to sever the ties of home and kind red and all that they held dear, that their children might own land and derive the benefits

We are again called to task for publishing facts and in the cen suring.:we are politely called liars. s,.,self-seeking poll t i c i a s with only personal grudges to govern our conduct.
 When we are governed by our personal grudges, when we so forget the principle of things in our civic conduct as to be gov erned by personal grudges we are ready to quit voting. We will move out of the way and not bother with any political affair of any kind. .
 Self Seekers
 EarI Dinner, Robert Allen, Ras mus Enge, Charles Greenaa, L. F. Paul are ALL self-seeking candidates. They desire election as mayor and councilmen to fur ther their own political fortunes in Petersburg, so says picayun- ish mind: * The criticism as voic- ed in our columns is the thought of each and every one of these men. And it comes only from personal grudges." Shades of Jefferson: Cannot a citizen cri- ticize administrations without being charged with hatred of opposing candidates? Such an attitude, without doubt, governs the policy of our sublime and versatile friend. But that is no indication that we are of his cal- ibre.

DEFENDS DRY
LAW KILLINGS
Deaths to Be Regretted,
but Necessary Says
Mrs. BO0Ie.
BY MORRIS DE HAVE TRACY
United Press STAFF Correspondent

NEW YORK. June 14-The WOm-
ems Christian Temperance Union
regrets deeply the shedding Of blood
in efforts to enforce prohibition,
Mrs. Ella Boole of Brooklyn. N. Y,
head of that organization, told the
United Press, but at the same time
feels that there are situations in
which it can not be avoided.
She was commenting upon the re-
cent tragedies in prohibition en-
forcement. The public must re-
member that officers are dealing
with desperate men who are break
ing the law" said Mrs. Boole. Oft
times it becomes a contest between
an officer upon one side and deS-
perate man upon the other, and
someone's life may be at stake
If a life is taken in defense
against robbery, or if a life is taken
to prevent murder or if personal
harm is done in the chasing of a
thief or other offender, it is called
Unsuitable homicide. The same
rule of law and of reason applies in
these regrettable cases.
Each recent case which now is
before the public has resulted in
exoneration of the officer or Of
ficers involved with the exception of
those including the I'm Alone case,
which are still awaiting settlement.
In the case of the Aurora CIllD
shooting, great capital was made of
it, Mrs. Boole continued because
it was on the eve of the referendum
in Wisconsin and much money was
spent in the Wisconsin campaign.
