 AlthO always elected as Re- publican, Joe is really not both cred much by politics. He can and does work just as we'll Wit--I Democrats and Independents as he does with Weak-kneed mem bers of his own adopted party. Personally he is very likeable but as a member of the Legis- lature, the Third Division sets him up as a standard that is not altogether creditable to the Ter ritory.
 Without his leadership pos sibly t7Ie Division would demand more from it's House members.

JOSEPH MCDONALD

One of the real popular and gentlemanly members of the House was Joe Mcdonald, the mining operator who resides in Fairbanks. It was his first term and he early realized that there were many things he would first have to learn before he could qualify for real val ue. Altho elected as Democrat he at times gave evidence of in- dependence of thought and re- fused to follow the dictates of the bosses who just assumed that Democrats were only good to vote as they were told. But Joe was early impressed with the importance of the Governors position and with the necessity of securing a large appropria- tion for the College. These con- alterations at times led him astray, but he was not blinded to the fact that the Senate was putting it over the House when it came to getting concessions that were provided in Steel's Board of Control Bill. He was one of the few who realized that

JAMES N. MCCAIN

This Representative from the Third Division came to Juneau very much impressed with the feeling that if he could get a bill passed providing for an eXperl- mental fox farm at or near An chorage, that he would be doing a great service to valuable growing industry. He started out to line up enough votes to pass the measure and from the man. ner in which it was received felt that his was to be an easy task. Everything went along lovely until the time came for roll call. Then a majority of the House favored the bill, providing the fox experimental farm were To- cated at the Agricultural College. And a great light daWned on the new member who realized that he had been jockeyed out of the race. Why even Alfred Lomen was so friendly (until 74e got his own $17,000 ship subsidy bill thru that he was willing to vote for the Board of Control Bill. Representative Mccain had the pleasure of telling some of his colleagues what he thot of them and of the Governor, but they had gyped him and he was out of the saddle.

that James Wickersham would not be elected by the People of Alaska. DOnnelly would vote for the Controller Bill if he was as sured that the Board would not disturb the peace and har- mony" of Fairbanks College.
 But what difference does that make-if the citizens of Alaska want James Wickers!4am, why not? We have not complained that the people of the First Divi- sion preferred Allen Shattuck to ourselves, nor would We abol- ish the system of election be- cause of our disappointment. Likewise We argue, the people of Alaska have the right to deter mine for themselves without the interference of special inter whether the College at Fairbanks is entitled to $2OO,OOO for educating fifty young people for two years.
 Donnelly is an example of the evils t1.at arise from the "rotten borough" system of government wherein seven hundred votes can gather in two senators and four representatives as against three thousand required in the First Division. Small minds from small towns are puffed up by the clever schemers of the federal machine. They still laugh at Donnelly's gullibility.
The Alaska fisherman., 1929-06-15
HARRY DONNELLY

Donnelly las lived too long as the little frog in the little pool without realizing that his was a little pool. He early gave the members of the House the i'm pression that he would show the

 AS long as he kept to general itieS, he impressed peOple-be- cause they did not know what .1o was talking about. But when he began to condemn the pre- valent methods, he was promptly classified as "tOO narrow mind ed to be given serious attention"
 His StateSmanShip is encOm- passed by the needs of the Fair banks College" When someone asks the question "What solu- tion do you offer to the great question of Alaska's future?" Donnelly's answer comes with the speed of reflex action Give the College the appropriation that MT. Bunnell asks for"
 His independence rapidly van- is.4ed (except of course his theo- retical independence) for soon he was vieing with Allen Shat tuck for the honor of being the Governors messenger boy. And when that became known, the federal machine troubled itself no more for Donnellys vote was safe. Because of his seeming success, he thought he was one of the leaders of the House, whereas, everybody else realized t..Iat he was merely carrying out orders.
 He made a bid for editorial praise of the Juneau Empire when on the last night, he told how glad he was that he was a member of the House and not of the Senate, and then proceeded to condemn the majority mem bers of the Senate. We can un- derstand how majority members can condemn minority members for obstructing legislation, but we cannot understand how any, one who believes in our form of government can condemn ma jorities. Donnelly certainly feels that !.e acted properly when he voted with the majority in the House. How can he object to the exercise of the same privi- lege by the Senate members? And particularly when the prin- ciple for which the Senate was fighting was government by and thru the people of Alaska as against Donnelly's system of government by the federal gov- ernor responsible only to Wash ington.

Newark, Dec, 13. For the per formancc of physical labor the best results are obtained with an indoor relative humidity of about GO pc" cent at temperatures between b5 and 70 degrees, says Willis II. Car rier of this city in q report to the World Engineering congress.
