ANACORTES, Wash, (By MaiD

sive Farmers of America, in regular
session at Anacortes, Washington

Dec. /:
Whereas, our country has just
passed safely thru another national
election (thank god it seems fitting
that we farmers should enumerate
some of the blessings, which we as
producers have secured thru the
election of that great American
statesman and friend of the common
people, Herbert Hoover, as presi-
dent.
eve note with clation that during
the past eight years of republican
rule, ten million people have left the
farms, most of them in bankrupt
condition to migrate to the cities
there to compete as unorganized a.
Dor with the already overcrowded
labor market, thus bringing wages
down to where the great industrial
magnates can make more profit ;
this is one desirable result of re-
publican rule and the election of
Mr.. Hoover insures its continuance.
Poor Farmers Bankrupt.
"We are deeply thankful that fully
one half the remaining farmers are
bankrupt and would quit if they had
anywhere to go or anything to do,
and further thankful that at the
present rate of increase of tenancy
in about 20 years more the farmers
of the country will be 80 per cent
tenants and renters, and tenant
farmers are not very Independent,
which is another desirable condition
and the people willing the place of
the removed farmers are mostly
from the cities and are caught with
the slogan: Back to the land" know
about farming nor the sacri-
fees necessary to be made and the
pitiful recompense of the average
farmer, and we are grateful that
Mr.. Hoover has been elected so that
this greatly to be desired condition
may be made permanent.

about 100000 miners have been

SHEEP BECOMING TAME
 IN MCKINLEY PARK

Protection of the game within the boundaries of Mckinley nation al park is having the effect of mak- ing the sheep and caribou and even the foxes very tame, according to Patrick Meehan, well known old timer of the Anchorage district, who spent the summer working on the new park highway.
 The sheep are very tame, the old timer says-so tame that they get in the way of the trucks on the highway, and there are a lot of them hanging around the camps most of the time, just as might be expected of domestic sheep in the states. At one time Meehan count ed as many as 100 of the animals within a stones throw of the camp where he was stationed in the vt- cinity of Sable Pass.
 Some kind of a disease, which Meehan likens to the hoof and mouth disease, caused the death of a number of the sheep during the season, seven or eight of the animals having been found dead by the road workers. It was not determin- ed to what extent the disease has invaded the park.
 A lot of work was done by the road builders during the summer and the new highway is being ex- tended rapidly toward Copper Mountain. The completed portion is in splendid condition and it is the belief of the oldtimer that when the road is completed it will add very materially to the attrac- tion of the park trio.-Anchorage Times.

 AUNT BETTY OF BUTTE

A Douglas news item in the Jul neau Empire last Monday gives an account of the play, Aunt Betty of Butte," which was staged at Doug las last Saturday evening as a l- brary benefit, saying that a great deal of credit was due to Mrs. Ell ton Engstrom who directed the play and also took the part of Mrs. Grayson. This was the part played by Mrs. Kyle when Mrs. Engstrom, then Miss Thelma Wait, put on the play in Wrangell two years ago Elton Engstrom was also member of the Douglas cast and played the same part that he did in Wrangell.

A number of men were discuss ing the matter of driving automo- piles at greater than ordinary speed over the streets of the city a few days ago when the following argument was used:
 If the fire department truck can reach the scene of a fire in one minute by going 40 miles an hour, it can reach it in two minutes by going 20 miles an hour and the lat ter is very much safer than the former especially where streets are as narrow as in Juneau.
 The same argument applies in the matter of ambulances. If a sick or injured person is in such serious condition that one minute will make a difference in getting him to the hospital, the chances are he will die, anyhow, after he does get there.
 At the same time, when people hear the fire or ambulance siren, they should yield the right of way, whether in cars or afoot. Nobody wants to get hurt and nobody wants to hurt anyone.

Congress Must Amend Mail Service Law Before Awarding
 Alaska Airmail Contracts

It will not be possible to award any contracts for carrying air mail between Seattle and Alaska until Congress can be prevailed upon to enact special legislation, according to W. 0. Vandervoort. superintend- ent of the United States railway mail service. with headquarters in Seattle His department had hoped to establish a special service be. tween Seattle and Juneau, supple mentary to the steamer service, but it was found that mail carried by airplane on a regular schedule can not be handled by other than regu- lar airmail rates.
 The plan of the department was to dispatch mail by airplane from Seattle each Monday morning, AS hours after the departure of the steamers of the Alaska Steamship Co. on Saturday. This would in- clude all accumulated first-class mails for southeastern Alaska towns, for those westerly, and for the Interior. Mail destined for points west of Juneau would catch the boat at Juneau and be loaded
 It will be necessary to ask Con gress to amend the present law and this will be done probably during the winter. If favorable action is obtained. there is a possibility that the supplementary air service will be inaugurated during the coming spring.

CANADIAN MAGAZINE
 ADVOCATES BOUNTY
 ON ALL GRIZZLY BEARS

The following editorial in Min ing And Industrial Record" Van couver, will strike a responsive chord in the thoughts of all north ern prospectors and outdoor men. Under the heading: And The Grizzly Bear Is Still Protected" ]" the magazine quoted says:
 ''The danger faced by prospectors and mining engineers from the haz- ard of the grizzly bear was brought forcibly to the attention of the pub lie through the mauling received by H. c. Hughes, manager for the Consolidated Mining and Smelling Company, at the Emerald Mine near Ootsa Lake. MT. Hughes was at tackled suddenly and unproyokedly by the bear, but had the presence of mind to feign dead. As it was, he lost a finger, suffered serious decorations to the hands, legs and face and is alive only by a miracle. He was brought out to the hospi- al at Burns Lake and then rusfed by airplane to Vancouver as infee- tion had developed from the injur- ies.
 Every year there are cases of men in the woods being attacked by these animals. It is nonsensical to say that the grizzly will not att tack unless he is molested. His ideas of molestation are unique. The grizzly and black bear are both notorious cache robbers. They break into cabins and indulge in wanton destruction. The bear is not a noble animal. He is an in- fernal nuisance and should be put in the same category as the cougar, the wolf and the coyote.
 "The foolhardy administration of game affairs in British Columbia during the past years has led to the protection of these animals. It is illegal to hunt them during the months of July and August. There is a bag limit of two grizzlies on the $500 hunting license.
 '"The Game Board has, however, devised a method of dealing with a dangerous or destructive grizzly. If the bear attacks you, you are supposed to write down to Victoria to the Game Board and secure a special permit for his destruction. You mustn't shoot first.
 "We would urge on the Govern ment and on the numerous associa- tions that profess interest in the mining industry that they urge on the Government the institution of bounty on both grizzly and black bear. The sooner they are cleaned out instead of being protected, the better for the province. The bounty on grizzly might we'll be $40.00 as it is on cougar and tim her wolf, which are no more de- structive and are less dangerous.
 Much is made of the value of grizzly bear for bringing wealthy hunters to the province. For our part we would rather see some of our friends spared mutilation and death from these animals, and see the prospectors' cache respected, than cater to the itinerant big game hunters. Unless we are mis- taken, the fact of there being a bounty on the bears head would not deter these gentlemen from hunting him. We have never yet seen a millionaire who would turn up his nose at few extra simo- leons
 Protection of the bear has never been justified and the sooner the Government realizes that its pres ence is a detriment to British Co., lumbia, the better it will be for the mining industry"
