BEN'S FATHER ARRIVES
 SEATTLE; GO TO ALASKA

SEATTLE, Feb. 1, R-Bear- ing the loss of his son with a Spartan fortitude, Ole Eielson. aged sixty six, father of Ben ar rived here last night from Hat ton, North Dakota, emroute to Alaska to claim the body of his son in case it is recovered. He was met by w. E. Borland the father of Earl Borland, Eielson's mechanic.
 "It is too bad" Borland said as he grasped Eielson's hand. Bor- land said "Darl had a lot of faith in your boy" Eielson re- piled, There are times when faith doesn't count for much materially, and we must bear up underneath of all this"
 Melson and his daughter Ade- laide, Wenatchee school teach CT, both vetoed the idea of mili- tary funeral as did Borland.
 Eielson and his daughter will leave Wednesday for Alaska. They will first go to Fairbanks and gather Ben's personal effects. Then if the opportunity is granted Eiel- son plans to fly to the scene Of the wrecked Hamilton.

Pilot Crosson is dispatching a Soviet plane and several dog teams to the scene of the wreck tomorrow if weather permits, with provi- sions and further aid in the dig ging.

Rights of the Negro Voter

Texas has what is known as the white mans pri-
mary election law which prohibits negroes from voting
in democratic primaries. Lest We forget, the state
executive committee Of the democratic party has is
sued instructions that under the law negroes are not
permitted TO vote in the primary. A recent ruling by
the United States circuit court OF appeals held that
negroes could not be barred from a primary election.
The court Of appeals, in a Virginia case, held that
such laws as the white mans primary law Of Texas
violated the 18th amendment TO the constitution of
the United States las they abridged the rights of citi-
gems on account or race color and previous condition
Of servitude."
NOW, whether negroes will be permitted to vote in
the democratic primary will be decided by Judge
Charles A. Boynton of tine United States district court
in FL Paso according to a notice received BY Chairman
John K. Weber Of the Bexar county committee Luz
ther II. Wiley Of San Antonio. a negro voter. filed a
suit in the Boynton court in which he seeks a pro-
hibitory injunction against Gov. Moody, Atty. Gen.
Robert Lee Bobbitt and State Chmn. D. W. Wilcox
Of the state executive committee. 1t is said that the
decision of Judge Boynton will affect all primary cleo
tons held in Texas this year. and is the first of its
kind filed since the decision in the Virginia case in
which Judge John J.. Parker. with his associate
judges, voted to knock out the Virginia statute which
barred negroes from democratic party primaries.
or course 1t Is a rank violation OF the 18th amend
ment to the American constitution. This is admitted
by eminent lawyers OF al political parties and the
Boynton decision IS awaited with interest by the
practical politicians as well as rank and file voters Of
the two major parties. Lest we forget the 18th
amendment to the United States constitution declares
the voting rights OF ciizens shall not be abridged
ION account OF race. color and previous condition Of
servitude," regardless OF the attitude Of white voters
Of the democratic or the republican faiths. Law is
said to be law and constitutions cannot be set aside
by statutory enactments.

Ruth Hanna and Her Fat Purse

Ruth Hanna Mccormick admitted expenditure Of
S254000 out Of her fat purse in her successful race for
a senatorial seat. Now it appears that three or
CARNATIONS Of volunteers spent an additional sum Of
$4,000 to put Ruth over. There is no telling how
great a sum was spent by others interested in the
primary campaign in Illinois when Sen. Charles
Deneen was pushed out Of the picture. Mayor Bill
Thompson and his white and black hordes joined
hands with Ruth to do the pushing out act. An in
vestment Of 100000 600 admitted by the handlers OF
the money in a senatorial primary seat contest shows
that the dollar is the thing and not the ballot. At
least this is the evidence in the case Of Ruth and her
pursuit Of the senatorial toga.
Now she has cut loose from the Thompson organi-
sntion and al other political factions which are dis
liked by the good government shouters OF Chicago and
Illinois. III other words, she has turned her back on
the forces which assisted in putting Deneen out Of
the political picture Of the STATE Of Abraham Lincoln
and Stephen A.. Douglas. OF course Ruth says that
1t is infamous to say that a senatorial seat could be
purchased in the grand old state Of Illinois. Il has
shocked her seAsihnities and caused her to shed many

in q senatorial seat in the not remote past and a high
court of the United States saved him from the peni-
Tertiary by declaring that the federal statute did not
cover expenditures in primary elections.
His right TO a seat was questioned. He was admit
ted by a narrow margin. Seventeen republicans who
voted to seat him were driven from public life. Thor
oughly Inundated, Newberry retired from politics. A
court saved him, but in the court Of public opinion
he was found guilty and his political ruin followed.

She ran into the library, where his
