MOONEY TAKES A CHANCE

TOM MOONEY is to be given another
trial.
The most famous prisoner in the Unit
ed States, who has served 16 years in
San Quentin following the Preparedness
day tragedy at San Francisco in 1916.
has decided to take long chance toward
obtaining his liberty.
He has been granted trial on an old
indictment returned at the same time
as was the one on which he was tried,
convicted and sentenced to death, the SEN
tence later being commuted to life i'm
prisonment at the request of President
Wilson
The indictment on which he will be
tried is concerned with the same evi-
dence witnesses, etc, as the charge or
which he was convicted. 1t differs ma
terially from the other indictment only in
the names of the victims with whose
death Mooney is charged.
Mooney and his attorneys are willing
to take the chance open to them figuring
that another jury trial can give him no
greater punishment than he is now being
given 1t is possible, of course, that
verdict of first degree murder punish
able by hanging, could be returned. Pos
sible, though highly improbable. They
chances for acquittal.
While this would remove only the in
dictment on which the trial would be
based, Mooney and his supporters feel
that it would aid greatly in obtaining a
pardon on the sentence which he is now
serving.
MONEYS case in more mystifying
than any jig-saw puzzle There have
been so many mysterious angles connect
ed with it that a rehearing in court may
possibly serve to clear away some of
them He has been proclaimed and believ-
ed innocent by many who were actively
connected with his prosecution. On the
other hand, various state courts and Of
ficials have been united in declaring him
guilty.
If a new trial will help to settle the
case definitely one way or another, such
a decision will more than justify it.
Straws indicate that the great army
of the unemployed is going to be increas-
ed bv the addition of a couple of state

WASHINGTON, March 81. U.R)-
In a pamphlet almost as elaborate
as that composed by the agricul-
ture department on the love life Of
the bull frog, the commerce de-
partment now expounds on the re-
spective merits of japanese waltz
ing mice and canary birds as detec-
tors of gas in coal mines.
The departments scientists test
ed both birds and mice with vary
ing concentrations of carbon mo-
noxide gas. The scientists discov-
cred after exhaustive investigation
that the mice are slightly more
sensitive to the gas than the birds.
The investigators also discovered
that the birds are slightly more SEN
sitive than man.
Whereupon the departments bu-
reau Of mines concluded:
Response OF these animals is not
wide enough for either canaries, or
waiting mice, to be Of practical
use for avoiding harmful exposure

GOING INDIAN

DISPATCHES from London indicate
" that the British are more concerned
over the present visit TO the United
States of the sharp-tongued George Ber-
nard Shaw, than are Americans.
The white-beared lrishman. who has
had a lot of fun out of life and whose
affection of continual irony and sarcasm
fails to hide a delightful humor and a
penchant for exploding the forcibles of
human nature in general. hasn't caused
any OF US half as much concern as have
other recent happenings.
Heaving a broadSide at G. B. S.. the
London Post insists that America must
do the usual thing and have him created
an honorary Indian chief, not forget
ting the blanket and the inevitable war
bonnet, and bestowing upon him the trib-
al title, Heap Big Blather Blather"
We hope some of the Indian tribes do
it but as Shaw is just visiting a couple
of small towns on the coast (San Fran
cisco and Los Angeles, where the real
estate men are the only IndianS,) chances
for Indian adoption are slim.
Shaw would make good Indian. De-
spite his white beard and Gaelic count
enance, he would be every whit as good
an Indian as the honorable secretary of
the interior, Big Chief" Harold Ickes.
Harold was adopted by the Indians a
couple of weeks ago and got his picture
in all the papers, plus the war bonnet
and plus also the blanket. There was
another plus-a pair of spectacles.
Saying that g. B S. would make as
good an Indian as Ickes is no compl-
ment for the former. The secretary of
the interior was just about the most ter
rible looking Indian that ever Indied.
And if Mr. Roosevelt goes Indian on us,
or permits any more of his cabinet to
be adopted by the Indians, he's got to
guarantee it will be sans blanket and sans
war bonnet, or his popularity is going
to get whale of big dent

 In an effort to get supply of reindeer meat for the unemployed of Anchorage, especially those being cared for through public funds, the Anchorage Chamber of Comerce, re- gently took up the question with H. w. Terhune, executive officer of the Alaska Game Commission. It was pointed out that since Ketchi- kan and other southeastern Alaska points were getting the reindeer meet for the unemployed and needy at a very low figure, and the meat is an Alaskan product, it would be consistent to arrange for other un- employed to be extended the same benefit.
