Options Taken Mining Ground
 Of Chas. Strom

Announcement made made to- day of the completion of another mining deal which will do won ders for development of the Council section.
 Ralph Lomen, of the Lomen Commercial Company declared he had obtained an option on 92O acres of mining ground from Chas, Strom, for substantial down payment, and the pros poets for development of the ground involved, are more than bright, he stated.
 Chas. Strom left here by air plane yesterday on a business trip to the States.
 The 920 acres, said MT. Lomen, much of which has been drilled, will possibly warrant the opera tion of two dredges.
 However, no statement was for incoming at this time regarding when dredges would be placed on the ground.
 The ground itself is located from below Nelson Or, right at Council on the Neukluk River, for three miles above the town.
 Negotiations have been going forward for some time, and it is with encouraging statements for active production next year. that public statement was made of the completion of the deal.

WRIGHT s KILLING
STORY|SDOUBTED
Airport Head Arraigned in
Staying of Wife and
Close Friend.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
GLENDALE, Calf. Nov. 13.-Paul
A. Wright stood mute and pale today
at his murder arraignment even as
prosecutors discounted his Jealous
rage" account of killing his pretty
young wife and close friend in his
luxurious home here Tuesday
The 3S-year-old airport president
waived. through counsel, the formality
of reading the complaint that charged
he murdered his wife Evelyn. 30. and
John 3. Kimmel, 80, his operations
manager.
If my conclusions are borne out by
subsequent developments" said Eugene
Williams. district attorneys chief in
vestigator, the State will attempt to
prove that Mrs Wright and Kimmel
were killed in cold blood, their deaths
being premeditated and possibly ac-
complished by entrapment."
Found Them Caressing.
Wright told police Immediately after
the shooting that he emptied an auto
matte pistol into his wife's and Kim
mels bodies when he found them
caressing on a piano bench as he en-
tered his living room after awaking
from an alcohol-induced nap.
Mr. williams said Investigators ex-
animation of physica, evidence led
them to believe the two were shot at
close range and not from a distance,
as Wright said.
Jerry Geisler, Wright's attorney.
said ne would plead not guilty at his
preliminary hearing Thursday. That
would preclude the possibility of an
insanity defense. Under California
law, plea of not guilty by reason of
insanity results first in a trial of the
facts, then trial of the prisoner for
his sanity.
Mr. GeiSler indicated. however,
he would try to show that Wright had
become emotionally unstable because
of incidents in his married life.
Underwent Operation.
He previously said Wright had re-
lated he underwent sterilization op-
Grafton after the birth of a daughter
three years ago when a physician ad-
vised that another childbirth would
be hazardous for Mrs. Wright.

Emporia
(NeW York Times)

(New York Tmes)
 William Allen White of Kansas, in article in the Survey Graphic (which is celebrating quar- ter of century of the life of the nourishing Survey Assocates) uses sentence of St Paul's to suggest to a strange and to him ineXplicable thing: T show you a mystery" That mystery is the town of Emporia itself, in Lyon County Kansas. Most of the people who have ever heard of this city know it only as his home town Years ago he being sought to come to New York and carry his daily writing there. But fortunately, he has stuck to Emporia a base for observation and operation. Emporia is real town, typfying urban life, situated in county which "symbolizes country life."
 Almost the number of people lived in Elm poria twenty five years ago there now (27000) The production of wealth in the county has greatly increased in that period. About the acreage is under cultivation then. And the amount of brains and brawn is today about what it when Taft President" But for some 'the things using in daily lives to make them brighter and happier cost two three times much as the things used quarter of century ago. and yet for all spending bank deposits have more than doubled which shows that with prodi- gality saving It's crazy as bedbug-but there it isl
 There is automobile for every family. There about many radios in the and county as there are houses. The roads have been paved or otherwise made passabe in all seasons; but the State has no road debt Yet the gross income has not in creased and the taxes have 20 percent It doesn't all possible but he that it is all To quote him literally Tt seems a fairy tale built upon reality" The people better fed and better dressed Further details only deepen the mystery" But he leads the conclusion that what has hap pened in thirty years in his home town of Emporia ustifies faith in the processes that lie in democracy They still at work. The gains indeed the substance of things hoped for" Empora would be a good yardstick for America.

THEY CAN'T CRACK ALCATRAZ?

Alcatraz pententiary is Americas No. l inst- tuition for the incarceration of criminals It is located on rocky isle that juts its head up of San Fran cisco bay and has been generally accepted escape proof In other words, it is situated that it was considered impossible for prisoner to get out and escape to the mainland.
 Now comes news from the south that two desper- ate criminals have escaped from impregnabe Alca- traz. Prison officials express doubt that the men escaped alive They of the theory that they perhaps were drowned while trying to make shore which is several miles distance. Perhaps But the reported fact remains that two desperate men have gotten out of Americas No penitentiary. where prison authorities have boasted are kept only the very worst type of criminals the tough ones, such Harvey Bailey, the kidnapper, Al Capone the coun- rys old No public enemy and chaps of the stripe of Ralph Roe and Theodore Cole, who made the get away
 They can't crack Alcatraz" has been the word given out by the authorities in copious magazine and newspaper articles with accompanying illustrations of why it couldn't be The nation has accepted that statement at it's face value. No one thought it could be done, but it has and naturally the law abiding citizens of this country going to demand how come?"
 They are entitled to full and complete answer, not only in the case of Acatraz but in the of other prison breaks and riots which have occurred about the country. It wasn't but few weeks ago that the Warden killed at San Quentin during a prison riot. Recently break was made from New York prison though the prisoners were apprehended.
 Can it be- despite our modern, almost escape proof criminal institutions that treat prisoners with too great degree of lenency? Are granting them too many radios athletic privileges, too much reading matter and leisure hours with all the comforts of home, except that it must be enjoyed within prison walls? Are prisoners who have money whose friends have money, given special concessions be- the almighty dollar rules mankind?
 Couple those conditions with impossible parole system which permits a person sentenced for life to get out in few years for good behavior and you have something to reckon with in the problem of handling criminals
 "They can't crack Alcatraz" But they did.

DON'T SHOOT TILL RETURNS ARE IN

President Roosevelt asked if he thought gen. eral vote of the nation before declaring sistent with the American form of government very frankly replied no The question was asked follow ing the circulation of petition in Congress propos- ing constitutional amendment to that effect.
 Of course, such referendum is not consistent with our form of government every school boy knows, because our system grants the full power Congress to declare But aside from that the idea is far-fetched from military standpoint
 Can you imagine military and naval leaders holding their fire in emergency as the enemy flayed them with shells, while returns were awaited from Four Corners precinct whether the residents of that section desired to go to war?
 If we want to give every potential enemy a hand- cap and kick our own defense program in the face it would be just dandy idea to pass such an asinine

Scheme To Pass the Buck
Cincinnati Ennuirerl

(Cinclnnat Enqurer)
 The scheme to authorize the President to veto individual items in appropriation bills which some members of the House of Representatives have sug- gested device to put stop to rolling would be an unfair imposition upon the President and an avoidance of congressional responsibility
 The thought behind the plan is that members of Congress could be good fellows the subject of all spending, and the Chief Executive could veto the ex travagances- in better position to effect econo- mics without hurting himself politically According to Representative Edward T. Taylor Chairman of the House Appropriations Committee the proposed pro- cedure would "a great many millions every year
 The line of reasoning behind the pan projected a bit farther, would confer upon the President the responsibility for all unpopular legislation, such as taxes sparng Congress all political risks Congress- function a Congress would be limited to popular undertakings.
 Admittedly, the scheme has it's attraction as an expedient. The policy of rolling" in which one Congressman votes for the eXraagances proposed by fellow member in expectation of reciprocal courtesy is well ingraned in the average Congress just as in the average state legislature. A number of the states follow plan of having the Governor trim ap- propriation bills through the exercise of seectve veto power
 It means, however substantial abdication of leg islative responsibility, which may or may not be as hurtful in state government in the Federal Gov ernment. It gives to the Chief Executive along with the odum for unpopular economies serviceable wea- pon with which to bulldoze the legislative body
 The need in Congress is not for some scheme to avoid responsibility, but a greater and more whole some appreciation of responsibility; but buck-passers not conscientious legislators
