THE TOURIST TIDE
laAFH4E V

V Reports indicate that the American tourist travel this season is the greatest in volume in five years Estimates have it that than four million people will have visited the national playgrounds This of course, includes Alaska, which, in comparison with other recreation spots of the nation has fared as well as any. Steamship companies and tourist agencies say this the greatest to the North in years.
 The Alaska Game Commission reports that the influx of big game hunters is great that there has been insufficient number of guides, and special men have had to be obtained to handle the hunting parties. Mt Mckinley National Park has had the greatest run in years. Aaskans attempting to book transportation the various routes in pursuit oi their usual affairs have had trouble all summer getting accommodations Here in Juneau the Terri torial Library and Museum has recorded huge increase in the number of sightseers registering there while the boats are in port
 The condition reflects not only the optimism of the thousands who spending their money on vacation pleasures, but it is indicative to Alaska of what the future holds for this great industry in the North as adjustment and business improvement continues It is the forerunner of the tourist tide to come with the construction of the International Highway and connecting routes which eventually will span the Territory.

HOW THE WIND BLOWS.

Mir Hearst, the publisher, says he did not say that there would be a Constitutional Democratic Party in the coming campaign and that he would support it's candidate. What he did say, he ex- plains, was that Al Smith would make powerful canddate' at the time charging President Roosevelt with being socialistic. He said more which doesn't matter, but it is interesting to note what MT Smith said in address at about the same time
 The former Democratic candidate declared that i've have false prophets nowadays, but we do not call them that. We call them demagogues" He too went on to talk of Socialism, Communism and the rest of the ismS
 Bitter political foes these two have been in the past, it would appear that MT. Smith would be a powerful candidate" all right-for MT Hearst Fortunately for the country, perhaps MT Hearsts candidates have had substantial following
 As for the charges of Socialism and Communism against the President, MT. Smith answers that in his own words when he says: T for one don't think that they Socialism and Communism will get very far in this country because the common people have too much brains sense and character"
 Quite right MT. Smith, and MT. Roosevelt is the leader chosen by the common people with brains sense and character

The American Liberty League which made its debut several months ago the defender of prop ery rights something of the kind has just broken out with another idea however brilliant select aggregation of lawyers will be engaged to analyze New Deal legislation to determine the constitu- tonality of the numerous measures recently passed by Congress.
 Just what the purpose of this super Supreme Court really has been left more or less to magna ton, but it is assumed it is not to furnish employ ment to legal minds relief rolls as the League is very anti-New Deal. Probably, it will provide something of a thrill to the barristers to pass official opinions holding companies, the tax program and other measures which they oppose but only the Supreme Court can speak authorita- lively, it is assumed these weight opinions will be used but for purpose, and that to furnish ammunition in the campaign to

Prosper Together.
Louisville Courier-Journal)

The chaotic condition of foreign trade is viewed by the economist, Roger Babson as the "one fly in the ointment of improved business conditions The Courier Journal ventures the opinion that ii politics and selfish interests do not interfere, Sec retary of State Hull belong long will bring about through trade treaties a change which will guar antee freer intercourse between the United States and foreign nations, and establish better condi- tions.
 One way in which lowered tariffs and increased imports might benefit those protesting against duty reductions is illustrated by Babson as follows:
 Take for instance, the steel industry
 which recently protested against changes in
 it's tariff set-up. If had taken more
 rather than less, steel from Germany in 1884
 than in 1883, she might well have bought
 more of cotton instead of drastically
 reducing her purchases Southern cotton
 growers and exporters instead of having
 less business, would have had more They
 might have needed additional machinery
 which in turn might have increased the
 demand for steel
 Lowering of tariffs goes hand in hand with stabilizaton of currences, and both these attain ments are avowed objects of the Roosevelt Ad- ministraton in it's effort to restore foreign trade

From The Empire

The Russian retreat was describ- ed by high officials of the Aus trian army as masterpiece ir the strategy of the present war Tho terrifying systematic devastation re- calls the retreat of 1872, when the Russians retreating before Napoleon withdrew over parts of the same ground over which they are now moving. Despite the fact that the Russian armies have been alternat- ing between retreating and fight ing for months, they are still intact and the army is practically out ol danger. Behind the retiring armies is veritable sea of flames, ex- tending for hundreds of miles be- tween the north and the south wings, caused by burning the build- ings and crops. The Cossacks have been ordered to burn everything that is left behind. They accom- plish their task implicitly"
 The Czar exiled Madame Gather inc Breshkovskaya, the grandmoth- CT of the Russian revolution" to Bulune, last outpost on the ice frontier of Siberia.
 William A. Holzheimer, member of the Juneau bar, returned from a hunting trip to Kupreanof Island, near Rake. That he did not return in pine box, the victim of starva- tion and exposure, is miracle, ac- ccrding to Dr. c. c. Finley, S. H Graves, Bob Hawkes., and Had Mo- Bride, members Of the party.
 The hunters were on the noun tain in search of deer Sunday morn ing. MT. Holzheimer was wit h Hawkes. and Ernest Kirkberger Of Rake. The attorney trailed a deer and shot it, and started for the beach with the carcass on his back. The distance to the beach was about two miles Within an hour af- ter he started to camp MT. Ho,z- heimer realized that he was lost He wandered about for two or three hours and at intervals fired hs rifle into the air Finally Hawkes. and Kirkberger answered the shots and went to his rescue.
 The three started for the beach but lost their bearings and were sav- eral hours getting there. MT. Holz- heimer camped while Hawkes. and Kirkberger set out to find the launch on which they had made the trip.
 The local attorney walked the beach all night Sunday until early Monday morning, when he met an Indian. Later he went back where he had cached his deer, and even- tually rejoined his party at Rake.
