Besides the theoretical side,
there is the practical one. How
many men have gone to the chair

quite a few. The execution OF one
innocent man should be enough

Besides this, capital punish
ment results in fewer convictions
in cases where guilt Is obvious.
Juries, when their sympathies are
aroused, will refuse to bring in a
verdict of guilty where death Is
the penalty. This means that in
stead of being put away some
where under the watchful eye of
society, the murderer is left at
large where he may kill again.

penal system which needs thor

&uitor, Times:
The taxicab bill has just been
reported favorably by the House
committee, minus some OF It's
worst features. 1t still Is far
from ideal. though, as the exact
amount of bond. on each car, is
not specified.
To make this bill just what
1t should be, all that is now
needed is to amend it in such
way as to leave nothing to the
discretion Of the Utility Commis-
sion.
Such language as satisfy the
commission in such way or ways
as it may prescribe" should be
eliminated. Study Of the state
ment Of Judge" Hardison, repre-
senting independent hackers be-
fore the Senate committee. pages
IL to Is of the Senate commit
tees record Of hearing on the
taxlcab bill S. 3615, reveals just
how autocratic and discriminate
ing such language is.
This bill-now better known as
monopoly bill-should never be
passed until this language is
changed, so as to plainly state
the amount of bond to be re-
quired of each cab, because, as
Judge" Hardison so plainly
shows in the Senate committees
record, the bill with this kind of
language can easily become a
monopoly bill.
Also, it might be said that the
Constitution commands Congress
to exercise exclusive legislation
in all cases whatsoever" and
Congress has not the right to
delegate or confer law making
powers on a commission it has
created to administer the laws
it passes. Congress must make
the laws itself. The independent
hackers demand that Congress do
its duty and plainly state in the
bill the amount of bond to be
demanded Of independent hackers.
Passing any other kind of a
bill will mean the end Of the
present low rates of fare in Wash
ington, and the public will know
who is to blame if it has to
pay increased taxicab fares, be-
cause of misguided legislation.

The narration Of church and
state, which is fundamental in
the American scheme of govern
rnent, seems to be blissfully ig-
nored by that eminent ecclesias-
tic, Bishop James Cannon, jr., of
our militant Southern branch of
the Methodist Church.
When a church espouses a po-
1itical cause, such as prohibition,
1t is bound to get into politics.
Writing laws upon the statute
books aiming to outlaw such a
well-eStablished habit of the hui
man race as that of enjoying
alcoholic beverages, is a political
activity which no church should
embark upon without knowing
exactly what it is doing. What it

King Of Jazz''

Paul Whiteman stands sup rene in the world of music and his first starring picture, Uni versaPs King of Jazz" which will be shown at MacGregor be- ginning Sunday stands supreme in the world of entertainment. The Universal Company claims this is the most tuneful, the most Dfodigal, the most uni formly magnificent production which has reached the screen. It is an all Movietone, all Tech nicolor medley of inspiring spec tacle, beWitchin' melody, match less dancing, clever specialties and hilarious comedy. Many top notch stars are featured, includ- ing Jeanette Loff, so beautiful
 so talented-deStined to be one of the reigning stars of the sound screen, and John Boles whose splendid voice has already made him one of the most pop. ular singing stars. The combina. tion of Boles' voice with White

"Nook- -she-yahn Eesh'

Henry Nook -she-yahn Eesh" Moses passed through Peters burg the other day when the Northland was in port. Henry has been a resident of the Terri tory for forty years and knows and is known by everyone in the Division. A fur buyer for many years he has fought many bat tie and in not many instances did he come out second best. This is due, says Henry, to the fact that he has always treated the Indians, with whom he has dealt, fairly, sQuarely and hon. estly. And they express their ap- p1eciatlon of this fact in many ways and many places.
 Henry has been down Seattle way undergoing medical treat ment and now looks as fit as a fiddle even though now 69 years old. Steps around like a man ot 45, looks and feels like one" says Henry.

AuxilGary Card Party

The first of a series of public bridge parties sponsored by the American Legion Auxiliary was held at the dugout last Saturday evening. Fifteen tables were in play throughout the evening. Top prizes for gents and ladies respectively were captured by MT. and Mrs. Forrest Fryer. De- licious refreshments of sand wiches coffee and cake were served and take it from us the members of the Auxiliary are real cake makers. Quite a num- Der of visitors from Ketchikar were present and after the lun- cheon the merrymakers adjourn ed to the Sons of Norway Hal and spent the time in dancing until the Northland left. The next party of the series will be announced shortly.

Reports from Jesse AmeS ot the Yukon Fur Farm of Peters burg, now in the eastern states doing the live stock shows with an exhibition group Of minks from the big minkery across the narrows, state that he cleared Up just about everything there was to be had in the way of prizes at the Chicago show. Out of twenty animals exhibited Jesse brought down the bacon to the tune of fifteen or sixteen prizes, cleaning up firSts, seconds and thirdS-there aren't any leaVingS after Jesse gets his. MT. Ames was also on the air with a radio talk out of Chicago to fur farmers and other interested persons, and we may be sure Jesse didn't forget to boost the section which produced his prize winners.

EIks Play Will be
 Success of Year

From every indication and re- port from those who have seen i the rehearSalS of the ElkS' com ing play, "The Beauty Shoppe," this will be the best amatuer play put on the stage in Peters burg. It is going to be the big geSt and most pretentiouS affair of it's kind seen in Petersburg. It has a big cast and a chorus of more than sixty ladies and gen. tlemen, and all who are in the play are working day and night to become letter perfect in their parts. The many snappy dances and songs are being rounded out to perfection and the cos tunes have already been fitted. In very short while everything will be in readiness for the open ing night which will be at the MacGregor on Wednesday of next week.
 The play is being given under the auspices of the Elks of Pe- tersburg and the funds from this play will be directed to the P. T. A. for the benefit Of the com munity gymnasium which they have undertaken to build on the lot adjoining the school grounds.

BRITAIN ACCEPTS NCRWAY'S
 CLAIM TO POLAR ISLAND

It was officially announced re- gently that Great Britian has re- the Norwegian claim to the island of Jan Maven, de- solate land lying between Green land and North Norway in the Arctic Sea.
 NorWay's claim to sovereignty was put forward in a royal decree dated May 8. It generally is ac- cepted that the island was dis covered by Henry Hudson, Bri- tish navigator, in 1907.
 The island is thirty-four miles long and nine miles wide at it's greatest breadth. It is divided into two parts by low, narrow isthmus. It is of quaternary vol canic formation, and has a num- Der of fully developed glaciers. !! The island has been frequently visited by explorers, sealers, trappers and whalerS. A Norwe- gian observatory, with wireless communications, has been main tained on the island since 1921.

Alaska Nominations
 Made by President

The United States Senate is
 again back in it's winter harness
 and President has sent to it a
 long imposing list of names fol
 federal office. He has renomina-
 ted for judge of the Second Ju- d1cial District of Alaska, Judge Lomen, incumbent; Lynn Smith,
 to be United States Marshal of
 the Fourth Division and Charles D. Jones as United States Mar shal of the Second Division.
 Judge Lomen has been more or less embroiled in the highly speculative reindeer corpora tions of the Lomen Reindeer Corporation of Nome. His sons are said to have used the judges judicial robes to coerce citizens of that district into doing the mandates of. the Lomen Cor IporatiOn. The Judge may be per- fectly innocent and unaware of the intrigues and machinations of his legislative sons but cer- tainly, with his legal training and knowledge of the local con- ditiOnS he must have known that the operations of his sons were not entirely to the credit of his own good name. This publication fails to see how Sutherland can sanction and support the con- firmatiOn Of this man to this office. It is time that his judi cial power be stripped from the LOmen machine which defeats the wishes Of the electorate of the First Division.
 In this Division Albert White is open for renomination for United States Marshal. It is said that there are others who are actively working to defeat his nomination and at the same time making effort to secure sufficient support to secure the nominations unto themselves. Some very alluring bait has been offered various political keymen for support. What the outcome of this contest will be is entirely problematical. President Hoover has his own way of doing what he wants to do and it is not inn probable that he will name his own man for that office.

Anchorage Fur Mart

Several fur buyers have ar rived in Anchorage during the last week excepting to make eX- tensive purchases at the fur auc- tiOn to be held here December II, 12, 13, and from present indica- tions the bidding will be spirited. It is anticipated by the manage ment of the fur show that all furs will be sold at top prices.
 Several small cOnSignments of furs have been received, some larger shipments have been promised, and it is expected large offerings will arrive with visitors.
 However, from the present number received, the committee is apprehensive that some of the buyers may meet with diSap- pointment and requests that all furs be sent in early to avoid a last minute rush that will swamp the committee in the listing of the furs for auction. Anchorage Times.

Complete Plans
 For Xmas Tree

1 The Commercial Club met III the Grand Cafe, Wednesday
 evening and had their usua1
 Club dinner and meeting. Plans were completed for the
 Community Christmas tree which is being sponsored this year by the Club. Report from Secretary Holt, indicated that the Sons of Norway, Daughters of Norway, the Alaska Native Sisterhood and Brotherhood had already sent in their checks for the amounts asked of them. And that reports from the other or ganizationS of the town indicat- ed that everyone would partici- pate in making the tree a suc- cess. Chairman Earl Dinner ap- pointed c. A. Swanson and Chas. Greena as a committee to pur- chase the gifts for the kiddieS of the town and to assist the school faculty which has altered to put up the Christmas bags. The school faculty has also indi- cated that it would participate in the financial part of the tree arrangements.
 The City Council will arrange for the securing and setting up Of the tree and it's lighting. The school will have charge of the program which will be given at the tree by the City Hall at four o'clock of the afternoon of the 23rd.
 This tree for all of the chil- dren of the community is an in novation that has the hearty support of every citizen of the town. And, as it is to bring cheer to everyone it should have every support. The Alaska Native Sis terhood has sent a letter to Santa Claus asking him to bring nice clear weather so that no one will be disappointed by any for ced change of the program.

Benefit Dance For
 Pioneers Fund

On Saturday night at the SOnS of Norway Hall will be given g Vitaphone Dance, the proceeds of which will be directed to the B. M. Behrends Bank of Juneau to help bring new hope and cheer to the men who have giv- en of their best to the Territory but who are now no longer able to be active producers and de- velopers of the Territory. This dance is being sponsored by the Coliseum Theatre, Manager Hal E. CawthOn of Petersburg and is a part of a drive for Christmas funds for the pioneers carried on each year by David Gross of Juneau through his chain Of theatres.
 Mr. Lloyd MacKechnie and MT. CaWthon have completed the wiring from the Coliseum to the Sons of Norway Hall so that the crowd which attends will have opportunity to dance to the mus ic of some of the best orchestraS of the country.
 This is a Hard Times Dance" and it is hoped that everyone will make it a complete success. However, it has been remarked by some of the women folk that a hard times dance" did not mean that the makeup need be in clothing that has been gotten off of a gas boat and which has missed dozen or more wash ings. But neckties and other fan cy frills are taboo so watchout that the committee imposing fines does not get you for not be- ing properly attired for a real hard times dance"

Wings made Charles (Buddy) Rogers a star! He lives up to every expectation of his admir- CTS in Young Eagles" which will be seen at the Coliseum begin ming Sunday. This picture has plenty of thrilling air battles plenty of romance and all the glamor and force and pathos of Wings" The story has every thing. Excitement and breath taking thrills with daredevil pilots in dangerous air feats, fun with the lovable young fighters behind the lines; glamor and gayety in wartime Paris, the valhalla of the soldiers weariec with fighting; romance between Buddy and Jean; mystery cent erlng around a beautiful g1r spy; the comradeship of man for man, and a final grea punch scene that will set heart' galloping.
