The Alaska fisherman., 1929-03-15

Legislation of this kind in the future?
 MT. SUTHERLAND. I do not think so. I think the remarks of the gentleman from New York (Mr LaGuardia) and the gentleman from Mississippi (Mr. Rankin) this morning on this measure will have an influence to prevent a continuation of this thing iii the future. And I be- lieve the warning contained in the bill ought to be sufficient for that.
 MT. RANKIN. The gentleman from Alaska knows, and I think he will admit that the people of the Territory of Alaska have not had any better friend in this House than I am. I have done everything I could to try to give them greater measure of con- trOl over their local affairs. but if thev are going to indorse le- gislatiOn of this kind and at temDt to turn the Territory back to the United States, I would like to know what encOHr9o on- ment it will be to those Of 11S who have been trying to help them to continue their battles in the future.
 MT. SUTHERLAND. The point is very we'll taken. At this time I want to express my aDDrecia- tiOn of the help of the gentle man from Mississippi (Mr. Ran kin), which he has always given me in the Committee on Terri tories in anv measure that seem ed beneficial to the Territory of Alaska, and that would extend local self f-government further, and I say the same of the gen. t1eman from New York (Mr. La Guardia). Ever since he has been here he has always S77n- ported every Dropressive meas ure for the Territory that ever came un on the floor Of Inc House. do not know that I want to he in the position of
The Alaska fisherman., 1929-03-15


 gentleman is against this kind of legislation, but he does hon. eStly believe this man has earn ed it and ought to be pad.
 Mir. SUTHERLAND. Yes, sir. Mir. IRWIN. And the gentle man has given this matter con- siderable consideration, and the gentleman desires this to be a warning to the officials of the Territory?
 Mir. SUTHERLAND. Yes, sir. The SPEAKER, pro tempore. The time of the gentleman has expired.
 MT. DOWELL. I yield the gentleman five additional min uteS.
 MT. SUTHERLAND. I hope this will be a warning to the officials of the bureaus of the Territory, that if they expect to get more money out of the Ter ritorial treasury illegally they will get no relief whatsoever if they are enjOined in court, and i am sure they will be.
 MT. MORTON D. HULL Will the gentleman yield for a ques- ton?
 Mir. SUTHERLAND. I will
 Mr. MORTON D. HULL. These Federal officials who are getting salaries from the Territorial L.e- gislature are performing some regular duties, are they not, for the Territory?
 MT. SUTHERLAND. Yes.
 Mr. MORTON D. HULL. They are not engaged in Federal dut- ieS?
 MT. SUTHERLAND. Yes, sir: they have rendered service for the money received.
 MT. MORTON D. HULL. That is the question; I do not know what the duties are, but why cannot they be permitted to per- form both duties? If they are doing work legally, why should they not be paid for it?
 MT, SUTHERLAND. Of course,

service in the defeat of that Oth- CT vicious bill, and now feels that we are attempting to acOm- pli5h almost the same thing in thiS measure. I do not take that view of it.
 MT. ARENTI. How many de- p2rtmentS and bureaus, and so forth, are operating in Alaska in the government of that Terri tory at the present time?
 MT. SUTHERLAND. Tn the administration of Territorial af- fairs?
 MT. ARENTZ. Yes.
 MT. SUTHERLAND. It is pret- ny difficult for me to say.
 MT ARENTz. How many ac- tiVjties in administration are be- lng done by the people of Alaska themselves?
 AGr. SUTHERLAND. Virtually none.
 MT. ARENTz. Now. it seems 10 me that pride alone, pride of men who have been there since the gold rush of 1898, would be a sufficient motive to cause them to run their own country and to do everything they possibly could to eliminate the various bureaus an q administrations that are running every solitary affair that is run in Alaska.
 MT. SUTHERLAND. The gen. t'eman is right. I want to say for the men who were in the gold rush of 1898, they are the men who gre opposed to this, but the advent of the bureaus have come a great many people of the States who are new to the Ter ritOrV and are unacquainted, and they are in many cases em- p1OYed by the bureaus, while others come under the bureau influence, and many are guided somewhat by a reactionary press that is committed to the policies of the bureaus and the exploit ing interests.

Ed so much as say to his mother, II don't feel
like going downstairs In the big dining room
tonight. Let's have dinner In our rooms"
and sure as fate, Mrs. Cooke, whose vitality
at 60 was amazing, would up and prepare for
q descent into the dining room.
Through long years Ed had come to learn
this streak In his mother. Her unconscious ex-
preston Of her strong self-will. She loved him
with passion that was ruthless. She tried to
kill the thing she loved. And for years-on-end,
Ed, who was by nature an executive, an ag-
gresSor, a success person, lived under the blight
Of her; thrived in spite Of her; achieved, where
lesser man would have gone down to his de-
feat.
With every inch Of the pressure Of her pas
sionate love for him, the mother Of Ed Cooke,
unconSciously, Of course, tried to destroy him.
And yet the boy, with an ineffable sweetness:
with an inextinguishable fortitude, struggled on
against the odds of the mother from whom he
had inherited so much Of that fortitude.
And then, to the stupefaction Of all, when Ed
was not yet even in his fortieth year, this fellow

phraseology Of bewildered doctors as nervous

Ed Cooke went to pieces. His resistance
seemed suddenly to snap. The sound of a per-
son entering the room was enough to send him
into tears. He took on a melancholia The
mere sight Of his mother would induce o

acutely serious. Ed Cooke was In bad way.
Forbidden to enter her sons apartment de-

being, Mrs. Cooke felt abject terror lay hold Of
her heart She was frightened into new kind
OF submission. She was catapulated into a new
kind Of silence. It was nothing for her to

crouch outside the closed apartment Of her son,
for g. and even 10 hours at time, until
doctors and nurses dragged her away by force.
She took to puttering among his belongings.
She took to sitting for hours with one Of his
neckties, or one Of his kerchiefs, spread in her
lap. She took to fumbling among his drawers
for this and that, searching for objects which
might give her solace even venturing In her
frenzy, to pry open locks that she might browse
further.
ONE day she found the journal about which
the chambermaid had tattled, and for hours
she sat with it open on her lap, reading, crying
the great retching tears of those who have
scanty tears to shed, moaning into her hands
and beating in a curious stricken fashion, with
her long, strong hands. against her breast.
After that there was some talk among the
physicians and nurses of sending Mrs. Cooke
away. But there were limits to her submis-
sions. She defeated them one and all. Plant
ing her big body firmly in the room adjoining
that occupied by her son, she refused to move
She def1ed them. She snapped her fingers at
their insistings. She rose in all the curious

like way, she prayed. It was horrible to see her
pray. Submission came so haltingly to Mrs
Cooke. Pleading was not part of her makeup.
Then one day, no one was ever to know how,

without preamble, what is this hear about

1t was as II she had struck him in his already
stricken face. 1t was as If the pallor that was
already there had receded into q still more dew
astating kind Of pallor. It was as If, hearing
his mothers words the very heart Of Ed Cooke
had turned in the grave of his body
A ND then automatically this sick man, her
son, employed with his poor tired brain the
formula OF psychology he had so often en-
ployed before. II don't care a thing for Betty
Simmons" he said, the lie fiuttering from his
lips like so many dead leaves, II never want to
see her again."
And true to precedent the figure of the
mother of Ed Cooke Strengthened, and out came
her dominating voice. II want you to marry

LAMAR ROBBERY
CASE NEARS END
Confession of Bandit Suspect
to Complete Chain of Evil
dence for State.

by tne ASSOClateu rTeSS
LAMAR, Colo, october 1.-THE last
link in its chain of evidence was to be
introduced by the State today in the
trial OF George j. Abshier on charge
OF first-degree murder.
Abshier is the first of three bandits
to go on trial in connection; with the
staying of A. W. Parrish, president of
the First National Bank, in May, 1928.
Three other men also were slain in the
robbery.
The confession made by Abshier in
Lamar. September 5, was to be read
from the witness stand by a stenogra-
pher, Madge L. Creaghe, who copied 1t
In the presence of Allyn Cole. deputy
district attorney, and L. Z. Alderman,
Prowers County sheriff.
The State has only to prove that Alb
shier took part in the robbery resulting
in Parrish's death, and the confession
viii suffice for that. Under State law
the penalty for such a crime must be
flxed by jury. ss.. 49,
With perhaps three and not more
than four witnesses yet to take the
stand for the defense, the case is exc
pected to be in the hands Of the jury
by tonight.
