TWO SEATTLE JUDICIARY
 CANDIDATES.

There is one place in the non-partisan judiciary contests in Seattle that is interesting to Alaskans That is the one for Superior Judge, Department H. for King County, between John B Van Dyke vet eran lawyer of large abilities, cultured gentleman, citizen of highest integrity and sanity, and Kazis Kay-kazs Krauczunas in Alaska
 There two excellent reasons why MT Van Dyke should be elected One of them is MT. Van Dyke The other is MT. Kay tKrauczunas)
 MT. Van Dyke is everything that a Judge ought to be. Learned in the law, possessing common sense in high degree, level viewpoint wide experience and judicial temperament. Tolerant and kindly of heart, he is preeminently fitted to serve as Judge of the Superior Court with fairness and impar- tality to all alike according to the law and equity of the land.
 MT. Kay CKrauczunas) is nearly everything that a Judge ought not to be. He is known here as an erstwhile Socialist candidate for Delegate to Con- gress and an intoerant critic of all who did not

Hindenburg at Eighty-Five.
Cincinnati Enquirer.)

Saving China there is no Nation in the world today torn by differences and so confused in it's thinking as Germany. Thrust into power by a democratic constitution after decades of autocracy dsillusioned by defeat and economic collapse, the German people have turned to any false Messiah who comes along with promises. They have almost as many political parties and factions there are leaders. The Rechstag is totally unable to exer- private armies, ready to begin civil war at any has not arisen to replace it.
 In this bitter confusion there is one man who is above party and faction, and whose personality holds the Reich together despite the centrifugal tendencies that threaten disaster That man is Paul von Hindenburg. Loyal to his Kaiser in good times, he loyal to the Reich in revolution. Loyal to the German people always. he stands today for the constitution. Without him, it is impossible to visualize coherent and united Germany.
 At 85, President Hindenburg is active and alert Though he would prefer to retire in the country and enjoy his last years in quiet, he con- tinues in Berlin, the impartial umpire of a less civil quarrel. Never expert in politics, he has none the less instinct which enables him to support those leaders who carry on and drop them when their power wanes. For eight years he has bet on the right horses and the avoidance of complete breakdown in Germany is due largely to this unerrng realism in choosing Cabinet leaders.
 Germany has had many heroes. None of them surpasses the old Field Marshal who leads his people in diversity with the integrity he dis played when leading their armies toward an ex- pected victory that never came.

REMOVAL OF DISTRICT ENGINEER
 COSTLY.

The Juneau Chamber of Commerce plans to begin a campaign for the restoration of the Alaska Rivers and Harbors District with headquarters at Juneau.
 The abolition of the district and transfer Of jurisdiction Seattle has affected all parts of the Territory. Permits for docks, wharves, fish traps and many other things, handled by the District Engineer now have to from Seattle and much delay and inconvenience is caused it is said.
 The discontinuance of the Alaska Rivers and Harbors District is of the results of the aboi- tion of the old Alaska Road Commission and the transference of it's activities to the Interior Depart ment It is estimated that this action will cost the people of Alaska many thousands of dollars year The cost of the administration of the Alaska Rivers and Harbors District was not less than S3000o year. This almost wholly expended in Alaska. This money that came to Alaska for expenditure, now lost to the Territory, was in addition to the extra cost to Alaskans of having to do business with the District Engineer in Seattle instead of at home
 Furthermore, the transference of the office Of the U. s. Army District Engineers force from Alaska to Seattle interrupted Alaska contacts with it which could not fail to operate reduction in the number of projects to be approved and a loss of expenditure Alaska rivers and harbors The old arrangement that took the District Engineer. as President of the Alaska Road Commission, to Wash ington every year made him a most appropriate person to talk for rivers and harbors improvements and appropriations while negotiating with Depart ment heads and House and Senate Committees
 In spite of all this Delegate Wickersham said he in favor of the abolition of the Alaska Road Commission in the interest of home rule" and economy" AS matter of fact it was the very opposite. It made it necessary to do lot of business in Seattle that heretofore was done in Alaska and it has added to expenses and deprived the Territory of whole lot of service
