REMARKABLE TRIBUTE TO A
 REMARKABLE MAN.

The Elks and other citizens of Juneau paid remarkable tribute to remarkable fellow Elk and fellow citizen yesterday. Eks Hall filled to is capacity by those who braved the snow, rain and sush to attend the funeral of their friend Lyle Davis and when the impressive and beautiful Elks 1ltualistic service completed there scarcely 9 dry eye in the capacious hall.
 Lyle Davis was remarkable young From early youth he had followed the salmon fisheries, Alaska's chief industry, and he mastered his work He learned all about the business of catching and packing fish, and he energetic. He drove his work and as he did it he and held the affec- a4on of all who worked under him and with him Men worked for him with a will and they, too worked with energy and intelligence because of him Breaking records was a habit with him and his crews.
 There was not man in his lodge or one who knew him that did not love Lyle Davis He was without guile he never indulged a grudge agains. anyone. He kind and thoughtful and loyal in everything He the personificaton of integrity and the soul of honor. It seems bitterly unfair that such man should be cut off from life at a

The Wonderful North.
(Prince Rupert Empire.)

Prince Rupert Empire) It was only few years ago when Canada was looked useless country, much too cold to be of any value. Later its value began to be realized, people looked still farther north and found that possibly by adaptation the country northward to the Arctic Circle might have a value. Travellers tell that it is warmer in winter at the mouth of the Mackenzie than it is in Manitoba although the continuous darkness of the winter months is handicap. Official statistics back up what the travellers say.
 Possibly fifty years from there will be con- siderable population at the mouth of the Mackenzie River especially if they find mineral there that is lof sufficient value to make working it remunerative The reindeer industry is likely to become important What other industries may develop there does not yet seem apparent but the oil supply at Fort Nor man has been proved but not utilized. Alaska offered to the British but re- fused by them because it was supposed to have no value. Now it is realized what a grievous mistake was made Possibly the rest of the Northland may yet prove valuable as was Alaska.

NEW YORK, Jan. 4.-The coldest "still" in the world, brewing its vapors at 437 degrees below zero Fahrenheit, produced the newly discovered heavy" hydrogen gas.
 This gas is exactly twice as heavy as ordinary hydrogen, yet is just much pure hydrogen as the well known kind.
 The process which revealed the hitherto unknown form is called fractional distillation" and is ex- actly the same thing which makes gasoline cracking"
 Strange as it may seem, the icy hydrogen still uses heat just the same as the other kinds of stills. In the hydrogen pot the heat is barely more than a dozen degrees above absolute zero" point of cold no human being yet has produced nor detected anywhere in creation
 Was Predicted
 Existence in the ordinary gas of this rare form of hydrogen has been predicted mathematically for some time To find out, Dr. F. G. Brickwedde of the United States bureau of standards made the novel still.
 He cooled hydrogen gas under pressure until it completely lique- fled at 437 degrees below zero.
 At that temperature the hydro gen boiled on exposure to air All the lightweight hydrogen atoms would be expected to boil away first, and that is what happened Only a heavy hydrogen gas re- mained. This was placed in glass tube at Columbia University and lighted just like neon light. By analysing this light Prof Harold c. Urey and Dr. G. M Murphy of Columbia learned why the new hydrogen atoms are st heavy. These new type atoms art made of four charges of electricity

 So many bad things have been said, and proved, of the Smoot-Hawley tariff that even the supreme apologist MT Fess, sneaks around it on tiptoe with his gaze averted Yet little of the damning evidence has been specific as that which has been revealed since Great Britain, largely in forced retaliation, has put import taxes of 50 per cent. on long list of commodities
 American industries have been forced to get behind other foreign tariff walls in order to com pete in markets that once were profitable. Now many of them plan to climb the British wall by moving production branches to that country. A dispatch from London states that several firms already preparing to manufacture products in England for English trade and that the English Government welcomes them because their activities will aid in reducing British unemployment
 The goods that will be produced by indus trial branches in England hitherto have been manufactured for export in American factories and by American labor. Thus Britans entry into pro- tection experiment in great part due to our own towering imposts is causing percentage of American industry to migrate to valuable mar kets and is taking work away from Americans.

FARLEY NOT PERTURBED
BY COOLIDGE ADDRESS

New York, Oct. 12.-(P,-Demo-
cratic National Chairman James A.
Farley asserted Wednesday that
Former President Calvin CoolidgeS
speech Tuesday night was another
attempt to raise class distinction
something that the Republicans have
been supposedly fighting against"
Il think it was rather significant,
Farley continued, that Mr.. Coolidge
talked about everything under the
sun but prohibition, the one thing
the people of the nation are very
much interested in.
II have no fear as to the result of
Mr.. Coolidge's speech last night, If
one may measure the effect of that
speech by his efforts the last time
he appeared as an advocate of Re-
publican candidates.
Two years ago I understand he
made a radio appeal for the election
of his friend, William F. Butler, for
United States senator, the reelection
of Gov. Allen of Massachusetts,, and
the defeat of Congressman Granted
in the Springfield district.
"Mr. Granfield was reelected, Gov
Allen was defeated by Gov. Ely, and
Mr.. Butler was overwhelmed by Mar
Gus Coolidge. I also understand that

BLACK GOLD MINED
NEAR TWIN CITIES
Needy Prospect and Dig Coke
Near Automobile Assem-
bly, Plant

st. Paul, Oct. 12.-(R)-Employed
and unemployed men and women
mined black gold on a man-made
placer Wednesday on the Mississippi
river bank.
AS the coke rush continued, it was
every "prospector" for himself with a
full bin for the winter their reward
for energetic welding of pick and
shovel.
There was no stalking of claims, no
superintendent of operations and the
miners came in droves on bicycles,
automobiles, trucks. coaster wagons,
and on foot, some carrying sacks,
others Juggling baskets, but all witt
some kind of containers.
The strike" was made at a point on
the river bank where gas works of
nearby automobile assembly plant
discharged the waste from coal after
gas and tar had been extracted. That
started six years ago.
The other day a man, wandering
along the bank cleaning wood for a
stove, espied bits of coke cropping out
of the ground. An inspection led tO
active operations and he filled his
bins before confiding the secret to a
friend.
But it soon became an open secret
with that friend whispering the good
news to another friend until now
there's a scramble to get there for
digging. The miners none with
the usual grubstake or donkey, al
ready are down eight feet and the
coke still is holding out

POCKETS CONTINUE
TO PATROL ROADS
Temporarily Discontinue Activ-
tiles Near Sanish; Plan
Counter Move at Raub

Farm strike picketing activities
were being continued in several dis
tricts in the northwestern part of
North Dakota Wednesday, according
to information received by 500 Line
officials here Monday.
Picketing was reported at towns
along the north branch of the 500
Line and at points on the main line
Of the Great Northern.
Pickets stationed on the highways
near Sanish, however, decided to dis
continue activities until picketing
systems could be organized in neigh
boring communities. The decision
was reached after it became appar-
ent that trade was being driven away
from Sanish to Plaza and Van Hook,
leaders said.
A group of farmers in the Raub
area were organizing against the
farm strike so that farmers might
haul grain before cold weather sets
in and roads become bad.
Picketing was reported to be Or
derby except In rare cases. AT Par
hall. dismissal of charge against
Bernard A. Schultz, arising out of
picketing activities. was ordered by
Justice of the Peace John Ber-
swanger following a trial Tuesday
evening.
The complaint against Schultz had
been signed by Erick Aanerud, who
alleged Schultz had attacked him in
an elevator at Parshall, as an out
growth of dispute over marketing
OF grain. Self-defense was advanced
as the defense for Schultz, who was
defended by another picketer.

URGES LAWYERS TO
PROVE DEMOCRACY
CAN Be PERMANENT
Enlightened, Aroused and IRE
sistibIe Public Needed,
Speaker Says

Washington, Oct. 12.-(P)-An ap-
peal to lawyers for national leadership
to show the world that representa-
tive democracy" such as our fathers
conceived and founded, can survive"
was made Wednesday to the American
Bar association by its president, Guy
A. Thompson of st. Louis.
Addressing $500 delegates at the
opening session of the 55th annual
meeting, Thompson said that danger
threatens" and that IAN enlightened,
aroused, and irresistible public opin-
ion Is our only hope"
Thompson spoke in Constitution
Hal, where President Hoover will adj
dress the association Wednesday night
at 9 o'clock. The delegates were well
coined by Frank ]. Hogan, president of
the District of Columbia Bar associa-
ton. Frank e. Atwood, chief justice
OF the supreme court of Missouri, re-
sponded.
ITO the thoughtful and observant
is it not plainly evident that our in
stitutions are beset today by dangers
more ominous than have threatened
us IN the past?" Thompson asked.
Republican institutions still are on
trial. It still is the mission of Amer
lea, with its far-flung territory, its
diversified interests, its heterogeneous
population, and it's menacing indus
trial and social problems, to demon
strate to the world and to posterity
that a representative democracy such
as our fathers conceived and founded,
can survive. =.
I'VE vaunt government of, by, and
for the people, yet the people stifle
and suppress the interest of their chill
dren in public affairs by encouraging
them to avoid politics and to shun
public service
There prevails among the people,
Thompson continued, Ignorance" of
the constitution and it's fundamental
philosophy, and Incidence in the dis
charge of the simplest duties of citi-
zenship. He said less than one-half
of the adults exercise the right of
suffrage.
Thompson said the government was
intended to encourage business, but
had $50 bureaus in competition with
private business: it was to protect
property, yet federal government ex-
penditures approximate $4,000, 900, 900
per annum, and $14,0O0,O0O O0O-one-
fifth of the nations annual income
was wrung from the people last year
to defray the expenses of government
