THE VIRGINIA OUTLOOK

The political situation in this State
is becoming more interesting and
puzzling as the time nears for the
holding of the Democratic primary.
The fight between Hon. Q. Walter
Mapp, who represents the dry anti
Byrd forces, and Hon. John Garland
Pollard, the champion Of all the poll
cies that this distinguished Virginian
has fathered is becoming vitriolic,
although the latter is doing his best
to keep it from being so.
That the Governor holds the whip
handle, so to speak, inside of rock
ribbed Democratic primary is gen.
orally conceded. For Candidate
Mapp to obtain the nomination as
Governor would mean the end of
the political career of the gentlemen
from Winchester, Va, and mark the
rise of Senator Mapp to political
prominence and power.
Should John Garland Pollard win
he would have on his hands the task
Of stemming the deluge, that is the
combination of independent Anti
Smith Democrats and the outspoken
Republicans backed by the support of
the Hoover administration at Wash
ington. Rev. David Hepburn, super
intendent of the Anti-SaIoon League
of Virginia, has thrown the proven
bal monkey wrench into the ma
chinery.
Here is now he did it and here is
what he wrote:
There are 100 members of the
Legislature to be elected this year.
There are about 140 candidates for
the same. There are also four State
Senators to be elected, There are 2
great many local officials, such as
Commonwealth attorneys, clerks OF
courts, treasures OF cities, Justices
Of the peace, etc.
tt is natural, therefore, that citi-
zens who are as much interested IN
the legislature and administrative de-
partments of government as in the
executive should desire to know what
are the privileges and obligations in
volved by one who participates in the
primary on August 6, 1929. The
State primary law and the interpre-
tation thereof by the Attorney-Gen-
eral entities every Democrat who is
otherwise qualified to participate in
the primary without question, no
matter for whom he voted in the
presidential election of 1928.
The decision of Judge Groner, of
the Federal court, that the Demo
cratic primary is unconstitutional
absolves a citizen from any legal OBJ
legation to support the nominees of
an unconstitutional primary in the
general election.
Voters participating in the pri-
mary are merely expressing their
preference. The fact that the pri-
mary is not conducted by and at the

"ENTERTAINED BY PRESl-
DENTS"

The New York Age in it's issue of
July 18th has the following to say
about the De Priest incident:
A notable contribution to the man
ners and customs of Democratic
government was made last week by
the publication of report prepared
by Karl f. Phillips, Commissioner of
Cancellation, and made public
through the Department of Labor.
The occasion of this report was sup
posed to be the wide discussion oc-
seasoned by the inclusion of the wife
of the Negro Congressman from
Illinois in u group of women invited
to tea at the White House a few
weeks ago. Considerable light was
thrown on the attitude of various
heads of the Republic, in meeting
and greeting members of darker
races on occasions that were of a
social as we'll as official character.
The report read in part as follows
Subject: Various entertainments
at the White House.
1S7S-President Rutherford B.
Hayes was cousin of President
Patton, of Howard University, and
was entertained by him at the uni
versity. At this entertainment

dent Hayes later called, socially, at
the Langston home.

entertained by President Cleveland.

corder Of Deeds) and wife were en-
tertained at the White House by

., the White House.
A. President Lincoln's second in
augur2l reception, 1865, Frederick
Douglas was entertained at the
White House, and as ne entered the
reception hall the greeting that Lin
coin gave him, in leaving 4 group Of
friends to greet Douglas, was so very
marked in its warmth that certain
historians have spoken Of it in their
publications.
As an antidote to the vulgar verses
entitled " Eiggers in the White
House. red by Senator Cole Blease.
OF South Carolina, in the Senate
Chamber and later ordered expunged
from the record as "indecent, OBJ
scene and dOggerel" this report
may have certain value. 1t places
on record ut least the fact that many
occupants of the White House have
been free from petty determinations
on account of color and possessed
the courage of their convictions.
Most Of our Presidents have been
pretty big men.

since the Armistice, there remain
25,5OO disabled and sick veterans of
the World War in hospitals, and the
peak of the number who will require
disqualification is not expected by
Veterans Bureau authorities to be
reached until 1947. For these men,,
the Red Cross must continue it's
service of providing recreation and
comforts, according to James L. Fies-
er, vice chairman of the Red Cross.
"Under its Charter from Congress,
the Red Cross is required to maintain
service for veterans of wars and for
the man still in the service" Mr..
Fieser said. "The funds for this
work come from the annual roll call
membership fees. In addition to the
sum spent in maintaining contact
with the veterans, the Red Cross ex-
pended $308,000 in it's service to the
men still in the regular Army, Navy
and Marine Corps. The society and
a majority of it's $500 chapters
handle claims for these men for in
surance, compensation and other
benefits they are entitled to under
the law, and also where necessary

 fornia Farrell came to Alaska
 and during the 40 years he spent in the Territory he took
 part in practically all of the larger gold rushes, always in search of adventure. As a gam bier during the days when gold dust was the stake to be played for, he enjoyed the reputation of being the winner of large sums. It is said that in one game of solo he won $25,000. After the big rushes were a thing of the past, Farrell went to Southeastern Alaska, where he had resided some years. Death was due to old age and a failing heart.

R. K. Stewart Territorial predatory animal hunter, and Jimmy Rhodes, engineer, had a narrow escape from death recently when their boat, the Comrade, was driven ashore and wrecked on the beach at Lung Island. During a heavy blow the boat broke loose from it's mOorings and before Rhodes could get his engine working the vessel was blown ashore. It struck with such force as to break the gas feed line and escaping gasoline was ignited by a lamp on the boat. The explosion hurled Rhodes clear out of the boat into the water. He was picked up by Stewart in a skiff. The two men made their way to a fox ranch on Lung Island and were

There is a marked scarcity of fur in the Interior country, &C., cording to Walter Scott, we'll known oldtimer of Fairbanks and Nenana, who left for the States recently. He came north several weeks ago from Seattle intending to spend the winter buying furs along the Yukon and Tanana rivers, but reports received by him while at Fair banks indicated that such a trip as he planned would not prove very profitable and he decided to return to his head quarters in Seattle. The re- ports indicated that the season has been very backward in all sections, with mink especially scarce and very few foxes in evidence. The scarcity of fur extends even to the Fort Yu- kon country, where normally there are all kinds of fur in abundance. Trappers have done very little up to the pres ent time and the outlook for the remainder of the winter is not regarded as very encourag- ing. The fur is of inferior quail ity at present owing to the mildness of the season.

A press report from Point Barrow gives interesting de- tails of the manner in which the Eskimos of that farthest north settlement under the United States flag celebrated Christmas. With excellent trap ping conditions and general good health prevailing in the community, the quaint, brown people, observed the day in much the same manner con1- mon to the white races. There were school and church pro- grams; gifts, generally whale blubber, reindeer meat, frozen fish, seal-skins and ivory, were given although a few gave homemade dresses or trousers. Popcorn was the big treat of the day. Some of the Eskimos are said to have mushed 100 miles to attend the festivities, of which a big native dance was a feature. The temporal ure during the day ranged around zero.
