 STIKINE, CASSIAR

Recent advices from trappers of the Stikine and Cassiar districts of Northern British Columbia seem to also corroborate the reports of a scarcity of fur in various parts of Alaska
 Stanley Jeckyl arrived in Wran- geIl with his dog team short time ego from his trap line on the Iskut River, tributary of the Stikine, to report the smallest catch of fur ever known in that section. .a
 Jeckyl is an experienced trap per, and the only man licensed by the Province to take fur on the lower Iskut. He covers over 200 miles of trap line, works sys- tematically and picks up his traps when he has caught what he con

CONTROL OF CONGRESS is
THE BIG ISSUE

Speaker Longworth has been doing
a little talking. His reports lead him
to believe that number Of Republi-
can Congressional districts may be
lost. He doesn't see any upheaval,
but he does fear that in certain in
dustrial regions, because of unemploy-
ment, there will be reduced Republi-
can vote. The question that is caus-
ing the greatest trouble in a few
massachusetts and Ohio he
specifically mentions-is prohibition.
In his own State of Ohio canvasses re-
veal growing strength for the
Democratic candidate for Senator who
is opposed to the 18th Amendment.
The prize that both parties are
striving for is the control of Congress.
This fact every Republican citizen of
Pennsylvania and of our sister States
of New Jersey and Delaware should
fully realize. There is need here in
the East to elect every candidate for
both Senate and House possible to off
set Democratic gains that may be re-
corded in the border and Midwest
Commonwealth. Mr.. Longworth is
not of the opinion that the Demo-
Gratis can carry either the House or
the Senate, but there is danger that
the Republican majority in each will
be cut down. Should that majority in
the House be small, there would be
opportunities for Democrats and indie
pendents of the Norris persuasion to
combine, as has been the case in the
Senate, to hamper the policies of the
Hoover Administration. A hostile or
deadlocked Congress or one with a
commanding alliance sufficient to
block legislation would be inimical to
progress building. Business is climb
ing the, hill, slowly but surely. The
less disturbance there is in Washing
ton the quicker the top will be
reached.
Such is the thought that Republi-
can voters should bear steadily in
mind. Mr.. Morrow should be elected
to the Senate in New Jersey. Mr..
Hastings should be elected in Della
ware. Prohibition can not become
much of a factor in the former State
because both candidates want a
change. 1t is factor in Delaware,
but Mr.. Hastings, who is in accord
with the administration, deserves his
full party support regardless of the
wet and dry controversy. There is
belief that in December the Presi-
dents Law, Enforcement Commission
will render special report on pro-
hibition. Should it do so, and should
it offer practical suggestions, the
Congressional atmosphere ought to be
clarified to considerable extent.
Here in Pennsylvania there is no

DON'T DESTROY

The time is past when Halloween
means the destruction of a lot of
property, and those who attempt it
this year in Oakland may sing their
songs in a different key when they
find themselves up in that institution
above the court house-the one with
bars over the windows. ~
Mayor Stemple has given warning
that those kind of "funmakers" will
be prosecuted, and he will see that his
proclamation is carried out. This
doesn't mean that there will be no
fun. There will be plentey of it, but
it will be carried on in a designated
area. There are any number of ways
of making fun without causing the
destruction of a single piece of
property, without stealing a gate or
road wagon, tearing up pair of
steps, and Impending corn crib, or
what have you.

THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE 1T

Newspapers have within the past
few days been carrying stories of the
severity of the cold wave. In Erie,
Pa, Buffalo, N. Y, and nearby points,
snow to the depth of four feet has
fallen, paralyzing traffic and causing
a food shortage.
Motorists were caught by the
thousands in the midwest and north
west, some of them frozen to death,
in the cold wave and storm which
swept that area. Distinct earthquake
shocks were felt in New Orleans a
few days ago.
And what happens in Garrett coun-
ty? A little cold, yes, but sunshine
each day, and wonderful fall weather.
Where else, in these United States
can one be assured throughout the
entire year of such wonderful climate
and weather. as right here in the
mountains, a place where people who
do not know and who have never been
here think it is unbearable.
Garrett county is good place in
which to live. Tell others that it is
and bring them here to find out for
themselves. What is the advantage
of basking in the hot Florida sun for
year or so, and then having ones
life snuffed out by getting caught in
one of their usual number of hurri-
canes?

wet and dry question of moment save
that which attaches to the Governor
ship. There is an uprising, but it
pertains largely to the candidacy of
Mr.. Pinchot and Mr.. Hemphill. The
revolt of the Republican ward lead
ers in Philadelphia is distinctly con-
fined to opposition to Pinchot. The
campaign of the Liberal Party has
precisely the same limitations. The
Governorship has no bearing whatever
on Republican policies in Washington.
But the Senatorship and the Congress
sional districts do have such bearings.
We repeat that the great issue is
the central of Congress. All else be-
longs to the Observation-Disclosures

WHY WAS DAN CARROLL
DISMISSED FROM THE
STATE SERVICE?

Mayor Broening has done the citi-
zens of Maryland a real service in
asking Governor Richie why he dis
missed Daniel H. Carroll from his
position in the State Auditing De-
partment after he had discovered and
made known the fact that money was
stolen from the State Roads Depart
ment. This is a question thousands
Of the people of this State would like
to see answered and many of them
are of the opinion that the Governor
is not in a position to offer valid
excuse. The residents of every sec
ton of the State are interested. The
residents of Garrett county are deep
" interested, for many of them know
and remember Mr.. Carroll as an ex-
cellent gentleman. 1t was the money
of the people of Garrett county that
was stolen and they have a right as
citizens to know why this action was
taken against the man who discovered
the thefts.
The challenge of Mayor Broening to
the Governor to show his sincerity in
the subject of public service by rein
stating Mr.. Carroll has set the citi-
zens thinking more seriously than
ever about the dismissal of State
employe who discovered that the peo-
pies money was being stolen and
made the information public.
And people of Garrett county, you
must remember that it was your
money-your property-that was I'M
lawfully taken from the funds of the
State Roads Commission, and also re-
member that Mr.. Carroll was pun
ished for discovering the theft. A
rather unusual procedure on the part
Of the head of the State government
The Mayor gave expression to this
opinion and at the same time voiced
the opinion of many when he said Mr.
Carroll was summarily punished by
the Governor for an act of good citi-
zenship and good public service. A
graet many also agree with him when
he said that he has yet to hear citi-
zen of Maryland commend this act or
the part of the Governor and that he
has heard it very generally con-
demned.
The public is given credit for soor
forgetting what happens, but these
things are not being forgotten sc
soon. When hundreds of thousands
of dollars are stolen from the States
funds and the man who discovers the
.thefts is fired following his disclos.

The o. H. S. Soccer team went to
Accident on Monday afternoon and
came back with victory earned at
the expense of the Accident High
school team. Even against Mr.. Spell
cher's old High school our team
showed no mercy, and all the scoring
was done by @. H. S.
A field goal by Maroney and one by
Graves during the first half were the
only points made. This makes the
second game of the year won against
Accident, and gives US a clear slate
against them. Played on a very cold,
windy afternoon both teams seemed
to be at disadvantage and could not
play their bast.

COUNTY AGENTS COLUMN
J. H. CARTER,

Orchard Irrigation Proves Successful
Judging from the results obtained
by number of Maryland growers, in
the use of irrigation this season, it is
highly probable that some irrigation
equipment will be kept in readiness
at all times during future growing
seasons. However, as yet, it is pointed
out by A. F.. Vierheller, Specialist in
horticulture for, the University of
maryland Extension Service, orchard
Irrigation is not recommended as a
general orchard practice in the East,
although in time it may be. The past
summer with its destructive drought
gave growers a chance to try various
schemes of irrigation. Some Mary
land orchards were. irrigated by the
furrow method, using one shallow fur
row along each side of the tree row.
On the other hand, some growers!
watered their trees by circular fur
rows under the trees, and still others
applied water to their orchards by di-
recting stream from hose against
the trunk, leading this water out be-
yond the tree spread by radial fur
rows. In many cases from $50 to
1000 gallons of water per tree were
applied at time, and weekly appli-
cations per tree were made where
possible.
In several instances stationary
spray lines were used by the grower
with excellent results in fruit and
tree growth. In fact, the experiments
in irrigation in the majority of cases
were encouraging, it is said.
