THE LINDBERGH CASE AND POLITICS

Bruno Hauptmann gained few more weeks of life the result of the famous New Jersey reprieve by Gov. Harold c. Hoffman, but that is about all nothing has been discovered in the and the Lndbergh kdnaper is resenenced to die the week Of March 30 Hauptmann will pay just penalty for a vicious crime He will die and have it over With But the Governor has stirred himself up hornets nest which is bound wide bearing on his political future.
 Hoffman is Republican and had two major trou- bles before the Hauptmann along--his fiscal program and his appointments Both have been causing him trouble end And then he granted the repreve, probably honestly feeling that further in- vestgation might develop something. Politically, it de- veloped fast and furious the Governors head The New Jersey Republican high command of which Gov. Hoffman the titular leader unceremonously dethroned him from party control The G.

THOSE FIVE-TO-FOUR DECISIONS.

The orthodox Republican New York Herald Tribune, which appears to have such faith i'll the Supreme Court it believes that mighty tribunal could reverse an act of God, has been conducting poll. The pri- mary hope is to show up the New Deal, if possible and turn control of the nation back to the Grand Old Party at the earliest possible moment. But aside from it's political preferences, the Herald Tribune is good newspaper and like all newspapers worthy the name prints the in it's news columns without regard to political flavor confning its editorial opin- icn to the editorial columns where it belongs
 As much the New York paper might object to it edorially it's poll reveals particularly inter esting point That is that it's readers in the east and south are convinced no act of Congress should be de- cared unconstitutional and void by merely five-to- four decision. total of 53 per cent of the voters opposed the five tofour decisions while the remaining AT per stood pat for the majority rule of the court
 While such opinion may have no bearing whatso- ever the reelection of President Roosevelt and the party it reveals clearly that people are giving thought to government and they are becoming convinced that the opinion of one man should not be permitted overthrow the acts of Con- gress which is exactly what five-to-tour decision means. A great deal is made of delegatng too much authority to President Roosevelt How about the au- thority that odd man in the fIve-to-four decisions holds?

AIR MAIL MEANS PASSENGERS.

The Bureau of Air Commerce announces that dur ing the year 1885 American air lines broke all pre- yous records by carrying 746946 passengers It was 6 per cent increase the previous year when only 46l TAB rode the air lines The previous high mark was in 1883 when 493141 passengers took planes It explained that the drop in 1884 was due to the cancellation of air mail contracts That is significant point and reveals the large part air mail contracts play in aerial transportation If it that much to the great transcontnenal lines of the states how much more it means in Alaska where or population is limited.
 The need of those mail contracts to lines operating in the Territory is even pressing than Outside because without proper aerial transportation Alaska mineral and industrial development greatly retarded More regularly scheduled air service is the thing need in the north more than any other. It paves the way for development of our resources. If Con- gress wants to see the Territory go ahead and be a greater of to the nation it do well to give further consideration to those air mall contracts

 Hauptmann is losing his life. It may be that Gov Hoffman is losing his political life in New Jersey. Few crimes in history have stirred up the people to such degree the Lindbergh Kidnapping and few single murders have affected the lives of so many people.
