TAMMANY UNITED AND IN LINE.

Tammanys executive committee, which consists of all the District Leaders of Manhattan Borough recently by vote of l9 2t6 to 4l6 gave Tammany Leader John F. Curry vote of confidence. en- dcrsed his record and promised the support of the committee to him and to all Democratic candidates for office
 This showed gain among the leaders for MT Curry of I6 votes since he was elected to suc- ceed Judge George w. Olvany. who resigned the Tammany leadership more than three years ago At that time he received 12 16 votes to 10 2It for Edward J. Ahearn The holder of the other F vote refraned from casting it in the Curry Ahearn contest
 This recent vote of confidence in Leader Curry in a way, it is said, relieved him from obligation to former Mayor Walker whose whole vote had elected Curry and defeated Ahearn. Curry has now been in effect practically unanimously elected leader of Tammany on his own. It is claimed that if pressed, he could command 2l votes and a fraction
 MT. Curry's latest activity before the vote of confidence was his acceptance of membership on the Roosevelt finance committee. He declared that he had already gone to work in quest of money for the Roosevelt campaign in the State of New York. He was present and contributed a lot in the work of the conference. called by National Con- mitteeman and Brooklyn Leader McCooey to make plans for carrying New York State for Roosevelt

The Kodiak expedition might sup ply information by which all these questions could be answered
 The last hundred years of scientific research mas supplied more accurate information about an clent peoples than had been collected for ten cen- turies previously. No history of the old times of the world is complete five years after it is penned. in the interim so many discoveries are upset or so changed as to make drastic revision necessary.

CHAPTER 20. f A SERIOUS QUARREI.

I Nan dld not hear the, crack o breaking timber, because it wa lost in the roar of the fall. bll. she felt the shuddering jar of it The bridge seemed to be wrenchec beneath her. She did hear Jervis' shout, ane she felt his grasp like an iror clamp upon her shoulder. Shs thought she screamed, and ths spray and the foam and the colo come up upon her face, and he1 hands, and her breast. She swung giddily above the torrent, and there was nothing between her and the pool below-a long, long way be- low.
 The bridge was gone-everythi was gone. She swung giddily, a frightful noise in her ears, and the water waiting for her. She had no thought for why she did not fall. She swung to and fro. It was all a confusion, like the brok- ell bits of dream
 And then suddenly she came shuddering out of the dream, to hear Jervis' voice above her.
 Can you lift your arms?"
 The sound of the words had reached her before, but not their sense. She made a slow, weak effort to raise her right arm, but something clamped it down.
 Then Jervis' voice again:
 "Your-left arm"
 She tried, reached up, and felt him grasp her wrist. Then she was being drawn up, slowly, dread fully slowly, while the noise of the falling, churning water seem ed to be right inside her head. She didn't seem able to think. The moment went on interminably.
 Then she Ielt a scrapiiig sensa- tion across her shoulders and back, and the feel of something solid be- heath her. Something went round and round in her head She gasp ed and struggled to sit up. She felt as if she had been wrenched in two She got up on her knees panting.
 The middle of the bridge was gone. A yard away the broken timbers stuck out over empty space. On her left Jervis was getting to his feet. Bran pressed against her side and licked her cheek. She caught him about the neck and struggled up.
 Are you-all right?"
 She nodded, holding Bran tight. And added in a fluttering voice that was much less audible than she meant it to be-
 What happened'?'
 Jervis said harshly. The bridge broke"
 She said, T went-down."
 He threw her a curious look It was almost as if he accused her an angry look.
 You might have been killed"
 You saved me"
 q grabbed your shoulder. We came down together"
 Mans heart contracted. She might have pulled him oversize might so easily have pulled him over. The words said themselves aloud.
 T might have pulled you over"
 Jervis stood there drowning.
 You very nearly did If I had nt come down full length before the bridge actually fell, we should both have gone with it. As it was, I managed to hang on, and old Bran took hold of my coat and pulled for all he was worth. Il got geod handful of your dress, and thank goodness, the stuff was strong"
 Was it long time? It felt very long"
 No. I couldn't have held you for more than a moment. I said Put up your arrn,' and I got hold of it; and if it hadn't been for Bran. don't think I could have got you up"
 At the sound of his name, Bran thrust his head under his masters 1,n No r-y%

MORE MISREPRESENTING.

According to the Seward Gateway Delegate Wick ersham in his speech at Seward for the purpose of making people think Senator Dmond is being supplied with funds from unworthy sources said:
 I have ridden on the public automobile
 lines from Valdez to Circle and through the
 mining region, and the railroad, and paid
 my travelling expenses It has been
 suggested that might the airplane,
 MT Dimond is doing, but if do that costs
 more money than I can afford. My opponent
 has been provided with the Dunkle airplane
 and all expenses connected with it, by his
 friends, else he could not that method
 of travel over Alaska I have big
 interest friends who think it sufficiently
 to their advantage to furnish me a free
 airplane free broadcasting and free
 pagn expenses. I obliged to and do
 pay my expenses and cannot afford to
 fly in airplane
 Senator Dmond is frst-class lawyer and he has had a real law practice for many years with a wide variety of clients He probably feels that it is cheaper for him to ride in airplane and save his time for his law practice.
 Furthermore, people will not believe Judge Wick ersham's statement that he cannot afford to ride in airplane. He will have drawn down between s25000 and s30oO0 Delegate to Congress during his present term which will expire next March He probably does not count his time worth mucs. and wishes to save the salary and perquisites of s1,000 a month. Therefore he takes the longer and more comfortable means of travel and keeps his money for the savings bank
 However, The Empire is betraying no secrets when it says that not cent of corporation money has been contributed to Senator Dmonds campaign committees, any of them to MT. Dimondefor campaign purposes MT. Dimond and the other Democratic candidates and Alaska friends are pay ing for the campaign.
 This applies also to all of the candidates on the Democratic Territorial and Divisional Legislative tickets None of the so-called big corporations are contributing to the Democrats.

er.
In the operation Of any business,
taxes must come first. They are a
definite and inescapable levy. Wages
and dividends follow. There is no
way a business can either maintain
high wages or pay its investors good
dividends without making money. If
an exorbitant part of that money goes
to government, the other interested
parties will be the losers and business
and jobs will decrease.
In brief, keeping the cost of govern
ment at reasonable levels would be
the strongest possible influence in
favor Of industrial revival, a high
standard Of employment, and main
tenance of wage scales.
