HE SATISFIES

It is a high tribute to the serv-
ice of Congressman John w. Sum
mers during Ia years in the ma
tional capital that the people OF
his district, in vast numbers, are
rallying around his candidacy for
denomination and reelection in a
year when there is such widespread
unrest rejecting itself in a demand
for change.
The Walla Walla representative
finds in every precinct of his dis
trict the same cordial welcome, the
same appreciation for the type of
service he has rendered. This is
evidenced in many ways to. those
who go thru the district. It is q
spontaneous demonstration of sat
isfaction and it will be translated.

THE STATE LEGISLATURE

Under the reapportionment bill
which was voted upon by the peo-
pie at the last general election,
this county was included in the
Sixteenth Senatorial and Repre-
sentative Districts, which includes
Benton, Franklin, Klickitat and
Skamania counties. This district
has allotted to it one joint senator
and two representatives to be cleo
ted at large in the entire district.
At the coming election there is
only one candidate for the state
legislature from Benton county
and that is Geo. O. Beardsley of
Prosser, who is running for the
House of Representatives. 1t is
very important to the people of
Benton County that they support
Mr.. Beardsley for the reason that
If he is not nominated and elected
then Benton county will be with
out any representation whatever
in the legislature. This county is
the largest county Of the district
and should be entitled to at least
one member in the legislature and
we have some very important leg
islation in which this county is
vitality interested, pertaining to
our irrigation and reclamation
matters and our road matters. It
happens that this is the only coun-
~ in the district that has any ir-
rigation to any extent, and of
course, the other counties in the
district are not particularly in
terested in irrigation matters.
It is hoped that Benton county |
win give Mr.. Beardsley unani-
NOUS vote at both the primaries
and at the general election and
that this country viii not be with
ont representation in this import |
ant phase Of our government. We
have qno means of knowing how the /
other counties in the district will !
vote but as this is the largest of i
The counties, and have the largest
Of voters it is apparent
hat large majority in this coun-
y win be Of considerable assist

Stinson is stating that Mr.. Christ.
ensen ownes the Pioneer. That is
absolutely untrue. Christensen
has never had any interest in the
Pioneer since came here. He has
been a good customer and / am
proud to list his as my personal
friend.
am supporting him for the
senate again as have before and
he has proven worthy of that sup
port in all ways. can recommend
him to you nd all Benton county
as a man capable in all ways. He
is faithful public servant and
has done more to put the Ever
green highway program through
than any other man in the six
teenth district. / would implore
you to give him all the support
you can and can assure you that
such support will not be misplaced.
IF you hear Of any Of Mr.. Stin-
son't statements regarding the
ownership Of the Pioneer just peg
them as falsehoods.

do some campaigning for Beords-

 The recent discovery that Col
 Raymond Robins, under the as
 sumed name of Reynold H. Rogers, has been a resident of the noun tain town of Whittier, North Caro- Ina, for the past two months, has brought forth many anecdotes in connection with the mountain res
 idence. One reported by the As
 sociated Press states that the mountain folk look upon crude
 altar surmounted by a wooden cross, built by the Colonel during his stay at Whittier, as the reflec-
 ton of light which many years ago pierced the shadow of the Yu- kon. They have heard the story G: now Col Robins, then just reaching manhood. nearly lost his life and the fortune which he and two companions had taken from the frozen gravels of the Klondike, and of his strange conversion. The story passed around is that Rob- inS, seeing death imminent when his party was trapped by howl ing blizzard, started alone for the outside" and help. After days of fighting the ice and snow which rode the gale, his strength almost gone, he is said to have come to lone and bare tree snag, and, while he looked, skies cleared, the sun came out, and caused the snag to cast shadow like a cross upon the snow. Robins is quoted as describing his sensation as "ov- erwhelming" and he fell on his knees as the Arctic storm closed once more upon him and in his prayer promised to devote his life to human service Revived, he said in recounting his experience, he outstripped death on that oc- casion and came home to work with the Red Cross and other hu- agencies. And so, say the mountain folks, to whom relig- ion is a concrete and ever-present state, when Robins resumed his search for gold during the period 2f alteration, the memory of the Yukon returned, and he worship ped once more alone and in the open air before natural altar.

 ocratic majority on the committee may now agree on favorably re- porting the bill.
 The Smithsonian institution has issued invitations to Congressmen and other officials to attend lecture on Recent Anthropological and Archaeological Discoveries in Alaska" by Dr Ales Hrdlicka, Cu- rator of. Physical Anthropology, U. IS. National Museum, on the even- ing of November 23, at the Audi torium of the Natural History Mu- scum. Dr. Hrdlicka has spent many seasons in Alaska seeking information on the subject that re will publicly speak on, and is considered one of the best quail fled men in the United States to discuss this particular subject.
 w. c. Mendenhall, the efficient Director of the Geological Survey, states that press notice has just been released on the Hidden Creek district in central-southern Alaska, vest of the Alaska Railroad. This notice is a brief summary of the results of one of the field investi- gations made during the past sum- mer by c. P. Mckinley, topograph- CT, and Ralph Dick, geologist. The maps and field notes will be work Cd up in the office and laboratory as rapidly as practicable, and a complete report will be prepared The area covered by the summers work in this district is at least L. 900 square miles, and the topo- i graphic may will show a relief from 500 feet above sea level at the Chulitna river to 20- 300 feet to the summit of Mount | Mckinley. The investigation was under the special ap- propriation for studying mineral resources along the Alaska Rail- road and had for its specific ob- ject the determination of the min- eral possibilities of this little-known district.

LATE SENATOR JONES FRIEND
 OF TERRITORY ] 1!
Helped Alaska on Many Occasions -DillExpect-
 ed to Be Stronger

WASHINGTON, D. O., Nov. 21- Especial Correspondence) = In the sudden death of Senator Wesley L. Jones of Washington state the Territory of Alaska loses a valued friend. AS chairman of the Sen ate Appropriations Committee he frequently came to the rescue of the North when the House had cut needed sums in the various bills passed by the lower body.
 The recent evidence of this was in the appropriation made by the House in the last session for the Alaska Road Commission, which cut the budget allowance of s65O- 900 to $354,000. Through the &C., tivity- of Delegate Wickersham the chairman of the Senate Approp- riations Committee was induced to insist that the sum be raised to $494, GOO. This was done and the committee report was accepted and included in the bill as finally pass eG by the Senate. It then went to conference in the last days of the session, and was accepted by the House. Fortunately for Alas ka, the other Senator from Wash ington State, Hon. Clarence c. Dill, is also staunch supporter of the legitimate needs of the Territory, and can be relied upon, in his ag- gressive and efficient way, to rem der beneficial service. In the next Congress Senator Dill will prove one of the strong and influential members.

The Pribilof Islanc seal herd. now the most valuable in the world
 increased SPA per cent in number last year according to Henry O. Malley Commissioner of Fisheries. The tabulation completed prior to the herds return from the breed
 ing grounds to the warmer regions O. the Pacific, showed a total of l,2l9,961 as compared with 1,127.- 082 in 1881. The herd had been reduced to about 132,O00 animals when the Bureau of Fisheries un- dertook the supervision of the herd n 1911. Since that time, the an- nual harvest" of prime males has increased almost without interrup- ton until in the last few years nearly 5o,00o skins were taken each year. The census of the seal herd this year showed 387 1920 COWS, an equal number of pups, 192,275 year lings and 2-year-old females, 12,487
