Returning Delegates Report Legion Resolution Cow
 ering Wide Field

With high praise for the manner in which the citizens of Seward co-operated in making the 18th an- nual convention of the American Legion, Department of Alaska, a success, Juneau and Southeast AL aska delegates returned to their homes on the Yukon last night.
 It was an excellent convention with about 20 members representing all posts and auxiliaries in the Ter rltory present, J. T. Petrich, who was appointed Department Adju- tant for the 18th year, reported, in pointing out that Juneau, which gets the convention next year, should start early to prepare for a great gathering next year. Already Seat tie Voiture No. 75 of the 40 and 8, have announced plans to attend the Juneau convention in 1886, sending delegation on two Eagle boats.
 Boys Drum Corps
 A feature of the Seward conclave, Petrich reported, was the boys drum and bugle corps, sponsored by the Cordova post and drilled by Ed Saari. This smartly uniformed group with their aluminium helmets acted as color guard during the conven- ton, took part in the big parade and then were taken to Anchorage by the Legion for parade in that city in which the Legion delegatees and Auxiliary who h been at Seward took part. Cordova raised $500 to send the boys to the con- vention by airplane.
 The Anchorage parade was part of the side jaunt Legion members took after the convention while waiting for the boat. Many looked over. the Matanuska colonization project and were greatly impressed with the work going on.
 Another highlight of the Seward conclave, the Adjutant reported, was stunt night held at the Liberty theatre in Seward in which each post put on a stunt
 Representing Juneau at Seward were Petrich, who also was present as a Department officer, John E. Pegues, A. F.. Karnes aild Mrs. Dolly Kaufmann, delegate from the Auxiliary.

DETROIT, Mich, Oct. 3.-Belt- ing with new found savagery, the Detroit Tigers hammered Root, of the Chicago Cubs, out of the box in the first inning today with four runs, disposed of Lefty Henshaw with three-run splurge in the fourth inning then pushed across another marker in the seventh frame to draw even with the Cubs in the World Series.
 The Cubs were handicapped by Tommy Bridges fine pitching and cold weather conditions.

Success for the Matanuska Col ony, new governmental appropria- tions for Alaska, and a steadily growing spirit of economic and poli- tical cooperation between this Ter ritry and the State of Washington were among the predictions oi Washington State Congressman Marion A. Zioncheck, who arrived in Juneau on heYukon, after an extended trip to the Westward which had for it's focus the gov ernment farm project in Matanuska Valley.
 As a member of the Sub-commit- tee on Appropriations, Representa- tive zioncheck journey to Matanuska to see with his own eyes the re- suit of government expenditure in the much discussed farm coloniza- tion project.
 Great Benefits
 "In my opinion. Alaskans had better look upon this colony as an experiment that will result in great benefits to the Territory-if," he added, they do not try to work 1t like a placer farm
 This warning was occasioned, he said, by the spirit of resentment which still fingers among persons who feel that the government should give the colony trade to nearby AL askan merchants rather than in- stalling a commissary, and who ob- ject to the use of transient labor imported from the States.
 Alaska is last frontier, and, as such, is a country of rugged indi- vidualists," he said. Some C. Uni: individualism is due, also, tc the fact that Alaska has not yet exper- fenced the depths of depression that has made, in the States. policy oi collective relief not only advisable but necessary
 The success of the colony, thinks zioncheck, is dependent nov upon the cooperation of Alaskans and oi the people of the colony themselves.
