That means that Tammany is

A review of the history Of Tam
many is pertinent to a discussion
of its present status.
How It Began
Back in 1889, within a fortnight
of the inaugural of George Wash
ington, William Mooney, an up
holSterer, launched a fraternal So
ciety in New York, and Aaron
Burr gave it the title of the Tam,
many Society. He took the name
from that of a famous Indian,
Tammany, chief of the DelawareS,
who. according to tradition was a
man Of great strength and Sagac-
ity.
The society was divided into
thirteen tribes, and each of the
tribes was ruled by sachem.
Even to this day the fraternal
Tammany Society continues with
in the political organization.
The Sachems are the members
who have distinguished them
selves in public life, such as Al
fred E. Smith, Senator Wagner.
leading lawyers and business men.
Each Fourth of July, the sachens
put on their robes of office and
Tammany has an old-time cele-
bration with a distinguished orator
of the day.
Aaron Burr was master politl-
clan and he swung Tammany into
politics and behind his ambitions,
AS early as 1908, the city had been
Scandalized by vote frauds per
petrated by the lads trained in
the Burr school. The good burgh'
ers raised the cry: "Tammany
must go!"
Off and on for more than hun.
dred twenty-five year the same CRY
has been lifted to the skies of old
Manhattan and for a little while
Tammany does go into retreat
but Tammany always has re
turned.
Bad as Tamnany had been, It

worst period of it's existence,
which is the years that Tweed was
boss. It was just after the civil
war that Tweed took over the

Senator Henry Roden of the First Division, on tour of var ious sections of Alaska, Saturday evening addressed the Nome pub lie from the stage of the Dream Theatre, a large crowd being present to hear some of the things regardings his candidacy for the office of Attorney Gen. eral for Alaska.
 Senator Roden, briefly outlin- ed his life as regards Alaska, ex plaining that he was born in Switzerland, and at the age of 21 years came direct to Seattle and thence to the Klondike. He be- came a citizen of the United Stat es, in the Fourth Division. Sin- ce the days of the gold rush, he said he had been in nearly all parts of Alaska except Point Bar row and Cape Prince of Wales, and that some day he hoped to go there.
 Speaking of his campaign for the Attorney Generals office he pointed out that his long resi- dence in the Territory qualified him to a greater degree for the office than his two opponents, James Truitt democrat and Har- ry G. Mccain republican, be- cause he was better acquainted with the needs of the country, and would be better able to help fulfill them.
 Definite Beliefs
 The Senator had very definite beliefs regarding the means by which Alaska could progress, and said that one of his reasons for coming to the Nome and Sew ard Peninsula sections was to bet ter acquaint himself with the con ditions here.
 He spoke of the various argu- ments propounded by members of political parties, that Alaska should be given exclusive home rule, or become a state, declar- ing that the territory would pro bably go bankrupt the first thing if it were not for the support given by the federal government, in the shape of federal agencies and activities in the territory.

On view is the third annual eX-'

Of the Studio House, including
also q number of paintings and
drawings by a professional group
taking advanced studies in the
studios of the Phillips Memorial
Gallery and the Studio House.
The paintings, of course, that
you can't help picking out as
those Of the professionals are the
ones before which you linger, but
the students work is perhaps the
most interesting.
You see several portraits of the
same woman, each done by a diff
ferent person, and the difference
in the impression left by the
model on the individual artist Is
as great as the difference between
the artists themselves.
The work includes several fine
pieces of painting, the work, for
instance, Of Melvin Buckner, who
recently was given a scholarship
to the Art Student League in New
York city. And Marie Sommenipa,
whose portraits are very fine. and
Mrs. Wilson Brown and many
others.
Among the professionals by
far the best work is done by

paintings she did for the PWAP
when that was the leading art
in-Government project. She is
now doing murals for the Dallas
