Lighthouse reservations without the boundaries of National Forests in Alaska, are now open for utiliza- tion by fur-farmers, it was made known today by Gov. George A. Parks. This was made possible recently by an Executive Order signed by President Hoover.
 The reservations are subject to lease from the Interior Department for fur farming only, it was an- nounced. These leases are subject to the right Of the Department of Commerce to enter on the reserva- tions at any time it is necessary to establish light stations, beacons, etc. There are many such reser- vations along the Alaska Peninsula and other westward areas that come within the scope of the order These were set aside several years ago in the expectation that eventu- ally it would be necessary to cs- tablish lights of some nature on them for aids ot navigation.

He spent several hours here Sunday, arriving on the Ad- miral Evans and continuing west on the same steamer.
 Douglas was a guest of Gov. George A. Parks for an hour yes- terday evening at the Governors mansion. When the Governor and his other guests of the evening, Mir and Mrs. M. D. Williams and w. S.

Panama, and Fort Davis at Nome
 He was then assigned to the duty of selecting a site for Department headquarters, his instructions being to select them as near the town of Skagway as possible. He chose Fort William H. Seward at Haines, since changed to Chilkoot Bar racks. He was then designated to superintend the clearing of the site and constructing the headquarters fort. This occupied his attention until 1904.
 First and last Gen. Richardson resided in Alaska for twenty years. His promotion to all the grades from and including Captain to Brigadier General, were celebrated in Alaska. In the course of his residence here he had lived in or visited practically every point in the Territory and he had made friends in them all No man, perhaps, ever made so many lasting friends in the North as he, and the ne' of his death will cause shock to the people everywhere.
 Gen Richardson's last visit to Juneau was in 1926. He made round trip on the Dorothy Alexan- der and was in Juneau July 2, that year, for a full day, the guest of his many friends. He planned re- turning the next year, and Col James G. Steese, then head of the Alaska Road Commission, planned the schedule of trip for him and a few friends to Fairbanks by way of the Alaska Railroad and return over the Richardson Highway, but Gen. Richardson, while he visited Seattle and San Francisco, was un- able to come north. Last year he was in Ottawa, Canada, visiting his sister, widow of former Gov.

 He was recalled rom Alaska to duty with the troops in 1917 and appointed as Brigadier General of the National Army, August 5, 1917. He was on active duty during the World War which included distin- euishcd service in various assign ments. and commanded the Expedi- tionary Force to Archangel, Russia. For his services he was awarded the Distinguished Service Medal. He was retired at his own request after 70 years of service on October 3l, 1920.
 Gen. Richardson m de several trips to Alaska after his retire ment from service. He often eX- pressed the hope that he might be able to come here annually, to re- visit old scenes, go over the roads and trails he had planned and help build, and renew old friend ships and acquaintances. However, during the past several years his health was not good, and he was unable to fulfill that desire.
 In letters to friends and in per sonal conversations with Alaskans who visited him in Washington, he expressed deep regret at his inabil- ity to come to Alaska every year. But he kept in close touch with Alaskan affairs through personal contacts as well as by correspond ence and was ever anxious to ren- der the Territory any service with in his power.
 Came To Alaska in 1897
 Lieut.. Richardson came to Alaska first in 1897, when the War De- partment was asked to aid ln maln- taining order on the Yukon River in case of emergency resulting from the Klondike rush.

He continued with this work in con- nection with Capt. Ray, with head quarters at St. Michael until 1900, when he was appointed Adjutant for the Department of Alaska. In that capacity he selected the sites for the military posts along the Yukon River and at Nome-Fort Egbert, at Eagle, Fort Gibbon at

DO YOU KNOW

That introducing an applicant into
the union will do more good than all
the kicking you can do in ten years
That nothing is easier than fault
finding, no talent, no self-denial, no
assurance, no care are required to set
up in the grumbling business?
That those who are moved by
genuine desire to do good have little
time for murmuring and complaint?
That full attendance of members
at each regular meeting adds much
to the prosperity of the union?
That if the members would keep
posted in regard to the workings of
the union they would be better salts
fed?
That the stability usefulness and
growth of a union depend greatly
upon the proper management of its
affairs?
That the man is a fool who pays
dues into union and then stands on
street corner and denounces it?
That the member who assumes an
attitude of Indifference and says that
"officers and business agents are
paid to do the work of the union;
let them do it," is destroying uncon-
sciously the very foundation princi-
pie of the union, cooperation?
That his attitude of don't care re-
suits in forcing the employment OF
more paid men, and, therefore, in
creases the cost of management, and
he helps pay the bills?

The professions of deep love "for
the poor workingman," expressed by
feudalistic employers and their allies
has replaced the old cry, II run my
business"
There is purpose, also, in the pres
ent-day activity of professional lib
erals and workers educators" who
would direct the trade union move
ment.
This element can not be reconciled
to labor's independence in shaping
it's own policies and refusing to sit,
wonder-eyed, before those who impu-
IDENTIFY insist on the right to control
and direct.
The professional liberal points to
Europe as his guide and thus con-
fesses an ignorance Of the American
ideal.
In Europe the state is the sover-
eign power, whether it be expressed
by dictator, king or parliament. In
America the individual citizen is
sovereign and he adopts constitu-
ton to limit the powers of his politi-
cal agents.
In Europe various classes, includ-
ing labor, strive to capture the gov
ernment. The successful class will be
sovereign. In America sovereignty
remains with the individual, regard
less of party successes.
The European ideal makes closely
knit parties not only possible but
necessary. The American has little
faith in parties because he does not
surrender his sovereignty. He de-
pends on education to form public
opinion that is the basis of our law.
The professional liberal and those
who would educate" the worker to
the European ideal do not know the
philosophy of their own country.
They do not realize that the Amer
lean trade union movement fits into
the American ideal just as European
trade unions fit into the ideals of
their respective countries.
They pose as radicals" when in
fact they are century-old conserva-
tives. The trade union movement is
miles ahead of them, but they would
have us believe that loose talk and
table pounding can conceal their re-
dictionary views.
To further their cause the profess
sional liberal and educator" attack
trade union officials in the silly be-
lief that they are responsible for
American unionists holding to the
American ideal. In this attack they
are encouraged by the cunning anti
union employer who will support any
movement that is based on the Ro-
man maxim, divide and conquer"
There is nothing new-except the
method-in present-day opposition to
organized labor.
The American trade unionist, SOW
ereign equal to all other men, and
determined to work out his own prob
lens, is inconceivable to the profess
sional liberal. To him progressive"
trade unionism is another way OF
saying: "Let me direct your move
ment."

Our Trade
UniOnism Fits Into American Ideal

The historic opposition to trade
unionism takes new form as old
methods are exposed.
This opposition can be expected be-
cause trade unionism rejects mans
control Of man.
The crude opposition of by-gone
days-Pinkerton detectives, militia
and regimented armies Of strike
breakers-has been replaced by cum
ming and stealth.
Our present-day opponents have
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1929-08-30

discovered that the most effective way
to control workers is to control their
mind.
Hence there is purpose in the en-
ployers' vast propaganda machine
that is maintained to defend the anti
union shop, the labor injunction, the
company union" the yellow dog"
employees ownership of a few shares
of stock, $1,000 free CD life insur-
ance, profit" sharing, welfare plans
and other forms of paternalism.

Road Construction Is Slow
iy Progressing Near Point

Wolf Point, July 28.-Work on
the federal-state highway projects
east of town is progressing nicely.
The Powers-Lalonde Construction
company has completed the grad
ing of the right of way from the
point near the railroad intersec-
ton of the Roosevelt highway to
the bridge. They expect to start
the crawling soon. The small
bridge over Little Wolf creek has
been completed by Alex Verdum,
the contractor. Definite progress
may be seen on the Missouri river
bridge. The Missouri Valley Bridge
and Iron company has the north
abutment completed. The first of
the concrete piers is almost done,
and the other is being lowered.
Two tubular piers and another
abutment will complete the ground
foundation of the structure.
