ment was "characteristically false in
fact, fraudulent in implication and hyp-
ocritical In conception"
Citing Shouse's mention OF sugar and
wool as two OF the tariff items which
brought retaliatory duties from foreign
countries, Senator Dickinson said in a
statement through the Republican Ma
tional Committee that because of
Shouse's position, his 'pronuncia-
mentos are presumed to set forth the
plans for Democracy tself."
Sugar and Wool Protection.
"If this be true. the Democratic party
is obviously committed to remove the
protection on sugar and wool, II 1t
should come into power" Dickinson
said. How acceptable this would be
in the sugar and wool. States having
Democratic representation in Congress
remains to be seen.
"For many months Democratic ora
tors have been asked what rates they
would reduce in the bill they publicly
condemned after obtaining the high
rates they desired. They have failed TO

answer. But now at last, Mr.. Uhouse
has named them--sugar and wool. II
there are further items which In the
opinion OF Democracy should carry
lower duties or be admitted free, Mr..
Shouse should be wound up again and
permitted to name them"
Dickinson said any attempt to de-
crease the present duty on wool would
meet with the desperate opposition
from Democratic Senators and Repre-
sentatives who must protect their dis
tricts or cease to represent them"
Referring to the Democrats charge
that the Tariff Commission has failed
to function adequately in reducing rates
In the tariff act. Dickinson said only
four of the Democratic Senators who
voted against the tariff bill have utilized
their, opportunity to request investiga-
tions by the commission with view to
reductions.

SIX BITS FOR SEVEN SHEEP

A check for 75 cents was held ur before the Senate Agriculture Committee recently to demon strate what one farmer got out of seven sheep. The check was displayed by John A. Simpson, president of the Farmers Union, who said the Agricultural De ' partment had estimated that the sheep eventually would cost the consumer $83.
 When a producer gets six bits for seven sheep and the cCnsum- CT must eventually pay almost a thousand times as much for the same sheep, there is something radically wrong with the farm CTS position. Perhaps they better join the Federation of Labor. Or else quit voting!

WINE PRODUCTION FOR 1882

Dr. James M .DOran, admin istrative head of the prohibition forces of the United States has announced that in 1882 85,000,- 900 wine gallons of industrial alcohol will be produced in the United States. This represents about 90 per cent of the total output and the producers put ting this alcohol on the market, will do so under permits from the United States.
 This plan has been worked since 1927 and it has been the most successful of any yet put forth-for the producer and his gang.

The bill would create 9 Supreme Court for the Territory of Alaska, 9 chief Jus tice to be appointed by the Presi- dent to preside over the court, the other members to be the four judges of the district court Of Alaska. But it is provided-that TO District Judge shall sit on the !. hearing in the Supreme Court in any cause tried before or decided by him. The Court shall meet twice a year at June eau. Appeals in all criminal niSdemaanor eases, and all civil cases when there is less than one thousand dollars involved shall be heard in the Supreme Court.

DIVIDING THE FORCES

For a long time, Republican voters in the Fist Division have been disgusted with the picayun- ish, peanut policies of it's near leaders. Under the guidance Of Dan Sutherland and William l.. Paul, these voters were willing to stand together in the hope that continued effort would bring remedial legisl6 ion which would prevent continued strangulation of the Territorv bv the vested interests. Both of these leaders are out of the country-indefl- nitely-and perhaps for longer than that. Delegate Wickersham showed in the last election that he could not carry the leader ship of Sutherland and Paul for it was only by the skin of his teeth that the Delegate was elected to office. In fact, but for the solidarity of the Brotherhood vote, it is not improbable that the old warrior would have gone down to a defeat as a climax to his many years of political effort.
 Now with the Republican forces welded together by the past election and victory it would appear that they would continue a united front in peace and har- mony. Instead, we find Attorney General RuStgard and Territor- ial Treasurer Smith at swords points with Territorial Auditor Cash Cole. This is the culmina- tion of the effort to get rid of Cole by the last legislature Heretofore the fight has been under cover of darkness and only run1ors of the bitter strug- gle came forth from Juneau During the past week the Board Of Appeals" which was organiz- ed by the last legislature to overrule the Auditor took ad- verse apinion to the Auditor re- lative to administrative policy of that office
 In plain words, the Board of Appeals was playing politics with the idea of topping off Auditor Coles political head to send him to political oblivion. And in their effort to discredit MT. Cole, MT Smith and Mir. Rustgard have not even been honest in giving a true survey of the very lean condition of the Treasury. School warrants in unincOr- LOrated towns are now coming hack because of refusal of the treasurer to honor them. If, as MT. Smith says, the treasury has plenty of money, why play hob with the educational op- DOrtunity of children; and why put the burden of operating ex- penses upon the voting parents? 1t is obvious then that Mir Smith is not honest in his state nient as to the condition of the treasury and is to be heartily condemned and MT. Cole is to be commended for his effort to curtail operation expenses in such quarters as will do the least hurt.
 While Attorney General Rust gard and Treasurer Smith are fighting Auditor Cole like mon keys in a cattery, they forget that the voters are watching every move that is now going on at Juneau Disguised in the past, they are not falling in greater love with the obvious selfishness of thwarted ambitions and de- cadent and waning power of the members of the Board of Ap- peals..
 Nothing appeals to the Demo- crats better than to watch the Republicans fight amongst them selves to the destruction of their party. And nothing will take greater strength more quickly than the continued knifing Of Auditor Colo hv other renutahle

new RAIL CROSSING
PLAN IS PROPOSED
Bridge and Underpass Across Ter
minal Tracks Asked
by Commission.

LEGISLATION is being drafted, under
the auspices Of the National Capital
PARK and Planning Commission, de-
signed to amend the Union Station
terminal act and requiring only two,
rather than three vehicular crossings
of the railroad tracks to avoid grade
crossing. The present act provides for
three crossings, but William J. Heiser
of New York, railroad expert retained
by the commission, in his report sug-
gested that there be but two-one an
underpaSS and the other an overpaSs.
The commission has adopted the
Heiser report and will embody his rec
concentrations in prospective legiSla-
ton. to be introduced shortly into Con-
greSs.
Under plans drawn up, Capt. E. N,
Chisolm, jr, engineer of the commits
sion. said today that the underpass
would be placed just beyond the throat
of tracks near the coach yard, to pro-
vide for a narrow transit beneath the
four lines of track, rather than placing
it in the more expensive location where
the tracks broaden out. The overpass
would be placed just beyond the point
where the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad
and the Pennsylvania tracks separate,
in the vicinity Of T street northeast.
To bring this about it is necessary to
change the wording of the Union Sta
ton act, Capt Chisolm explained.
Conferences are being held with the
interested railroad officials to work out
the program.
