It is this that makes The Empire querulous. —(Sitka Verstovian.) Evidently the Verstovian the race question when a few Indians on the West Co: of Prince of haps, elsewhere, voted for Sulzer, the Democratic nominee Dele, e to Con- gress in 1916 1918 1t apparently endeav- oring to put over the idea that The Empire would not object to the Indlans’ voting as an organized Indian bloc if the bloc voting the instead of the Republ ticket If we have correctly guessed the meaning of thej Verstovian’s innuendo, it historically ‘and in its conclusions. A few Southeastern Indians who claimed to have abandoned tribal relations and to live like white people, who could read and write and speak English, voted as 1916 before. More India at Seldovia and other precincts in the Third Division in 1916 (against Mr. Sulzer) and before. The Indians on Gastineau Channel and the West Coast of Prince of W voted for (and against) Mr. Sulzer voted, not as an organized body of Indians, but individual American citizens, There were, all probably 100—possibly few more—of them It was several after this organized the Indians of Southeastern who still recognized tribal cl those who could not read as the and used bloc with which to force that would enable him to dominate the situation in Southeastern Alaska.

Mr. Paunl first offered this organized Indian vot- ing bloc to the Democrats. At that time he was particularly interested trying to force the Indian children into the white schools. Among others, Mr. Paul wrote to the editor of The BEmpire saying that he could deliver to the Democratic Party 500 to 1,000 organized Indian votes. The editor of The Empire, in response to Mr. Paul's offer, urged that he desist from his announced purpose to organize the Indians into a voting bloc, saying that it would result in introducing the race question in politics and probably arouse racial feeling among tho people. It was made clear Mr. Paul that The Empire was opposed to the organization of an Indian bloc of voters regardless of what party or what can- didates it might support. He told Mr. Paul that such a move would not be well either for the Indians or the white people This recital proves that The in saying that the Indians introduced in Alaskan polities, to Indian bloc the Verstovian tude of The to Empire is correct the race issue that The Empire is not opposed voting for partisan reasons, and that is not qualified to question the atti- Smpire in the moral field.

Chicago's gangland has outdone itself in the funeral of the latest of its leaders to be bumped off. Vincent Drucci, who succéded Don O'Bannion and Earl Wiess as chief of oné of the most powerful gangs in the Windy City—a gang that counted among its necessary equipment machine guns, bombs, sawed- off shotguns and rifies, and which never hesitated to remove any obstacle, human or otherwise, from its path—became involved in the general round-up of mnotorious characters before the recent election. While Drucci was being taken to the police station for questioning he sudenly started to fight his way to treedom. He was promptly shot and killed by a policeman, who was taking no chances with the dangerous gangster. And now comes his funeral. A silver and alumi- num casket, thousands of dollars of elaborate floral offerings and procession through to overflowingewith friends. That is the way Chicago gangland buries its dead. Little sympathy is aroused by the another gangster being carrled to his last resting place. These men, the majority of whom have ruled and died by the gun, deserve no homage. They have attempted to set up a law beyond that of the State and Federal governments. They have wantonly slain those who opposed them. spectacle of Paper Industry Is Growing.
