OTHER ASSETS
AREHELPFUL.,
THOUGH
BY JACK DEMPSEY


Every so often the boys get to-
gether and trade ideas as to
what is most vital for success Of
any youth with ring ambitions.
So far as I view 1t, the answer
is simple. It is this: Ability to
take q lot Ct pounding. Yet
there are many who insist that
speed Is the thing. others stress
the importance OF the legs. Some
say that, If q man has brittle
hands, he never will get any
where at all.
Gene Tunney shoots the latter
theory to bits. Tunney never
had what might be called steel
fists" During the early part OF
his career his hands always
bothered him. Frequently their
brittleness put him on the shelf.
But Tunney went into the woods
for some months, chopped down
trees, did hand exercises and
eventually lcbuilt his hands
Speed-that's o wonderful
asset. But 1t doesn't mean
much IL your jaw Is CLASSY.
During the past ten years we
have seen many speed mar
vels come into the heavy
weight division.
They stepped around like a
flash. But q ring Is
only so big. Sooner or later the
fastest man can be trapped.
When those fellows were trapped
and the other fellows got a crack
at their chins, out went the lights
and they dragged the speed boys
to their corners.
But If such a lad had a stout
chin and a tough body the result
would have been different. II q
man can take a battering and
stand up, then he has q chance
to climb to any heights, no mat
ter If he is lacking, in other
things.
Whatever success I had was
founded upon a good jaw and q
body that could stand UP under
hammering. The punch that was
mine wouldn't have been much
help to me If I couldn't take
good banging around and wait
my chance to drive home some
winning shots.
- r.
In 1918 GunbOat Smith hit
me on the chin with o right
hand that nearly ripped off
my head. II ] hadn't been
able to take It I'd have gone
down and Out-and that
would have finished my Ca
reer before it really started.
In the same year Bill Brennan
hit me a Highlander that almost
paralyzed me. But the old chin
absorbed it, my legs held UP and
I fought on and knocked out Bill.
Courage. speed, cleverneSs, a
great pair of hands, a keen brain,
fighting heart and o killing
punch-all are helpful to a ring
man. But If he can't take beat
nights the floor early and
often-he soon is all washed up
as a warrior of the prize rings.

to the welfare of the Territory. And if Judge Wickersham is elec- ted it goes without saying that he will remain true to his plat form pledges. Then any effort of the electorate or press of Alaska to negate their effort in order to secure political advantage will be but an effort to negate the will and wish of the people.
 With a solid Alaska behind the Delegate much can be ac- complished. With divided Alaska, most certainly the Del egate's efforts to secure benefi- cial legislation will be cut in half. If the legislation is of benefit to the Territory then the voters will have chance to speak out in plain terms in the next election. But in the interim, much harm can be done which might we'll be avoided.

The G. o. P. APPEAL

The COP. national leaders sent out the Macedonian cry tc the voters just before Tuesdays elections and urged the voters to return the Republican candi- dates in order that they "could continue to work out the pros perity program"
 Which reminds us of the time the late President Wilson urged the voters to return Democrats to office in order that they might make the world safe for de- mocracy." And the reply was just as emphatic as the present instance.

POLITICAL OBSERVATION

A casual perusal of the elec- tion returns, both national and territorial indicate the trend of thought of the voters of the country. Tn the States, the ma jority held by the Republicans both in the Senate and the House of Representatives, has been cut to point where that party is pretty much worried. Tn the Senate the lead has been cut so much that there is in fact a Democratic majority with the Progressive Republicans holding the majority for liberal legisla- tion. Their vote thrown either way will secure the passage or failure of any legislation.
 This swing from the normal Republican majority to the Dem ocratic side is the reaction a. gainst the majority party by the rank and file of the country. The dissatisfaction with the unem- ployment situation, with the seeming indifference of the ma jority party to listen to the in sistent demands for greater con- sideratiOn for the rank and file than has been expressed by the majority for the past three gen. erations. The prohibition ques- tion also had a large part in the swing of votes to the Democrats.
 Tn Alaska the general dissat- isfaction with the fisheries ad- ninistration is clearly expressed. The general belief being that with a Democratic adminiStra- tion in the saddle more favorable legislation will be enacted for the Territory. The dissatisfac- tion with teh national direction of Alaska's affairs made a reac- tion unfavorable to the Repub- lican legislative candidates and also turned a great many nor mally Republican votes against Judge Wickersham. Certainly MT. Grigsby did not get the vote accorded him on his past record or his character. The vote re- corded is a slap at the admin istration and a demand that Alaska be given greater privilege in the direction of it's affairs than has been given heretofore

WHY THE VOTE TOGETHER

The Indians are damned for standing solidly together and voting for their candidates. Did it ever occur to you that they stand together because they all have to cinch up on their belts for the same reason? And is it not true that the I. w. WIS, So- cialists and Labor parties have secured a solidarity for the same reason. And that their stand ing together was due to econom- ic pressure rather than because of party lines. When the gov erning officials of Alaska and it's resources make it possible for the laborer to loosen up their belts the solidarity will be brok- en-nOt before that time.
