They have simply placed hibition in the same category with laws against counterfeiting, misuse of the mails and other purely has denied the State’s duty to co- Pro- Federal laws. In these cases the Sheriffs, Police Departments and other State servants co-operate with the Federal authorities in running down crim- inals, but the prosecutions are in the Federal courts and all court and extra costs are borne by the Na- tional Government. The opposition the Federal Government is get- ting from the people in its efforts to en- force. Prohibition is not comparable with the nulli- fication of the Fugitive Slave Law in the days just beforg the war between the Htates. At that time not less than eight States passed laws making it a erime for any State, County or Municipal officer or citizen to aid Federal officers in the enforcement of the Fugitive Slave Law. State courts were pro- hibited from considering cases growing out of the Fugitive Slave Law, and the “Underground Rail- road,” an organization whose purpose was to en- courage and aid the escape of slaves from the South, was in all essential things legalized by direct State statutes. Lincoln in his debates with Douglas would not condemn the nullification of the Fugitive Slave Law, which had been upheld by the United States Su- preme Court. It was the nullification of the Fugitive Slave Law in the North, more than any other one thing, that caused the Civil War, and in that conflict the nullificationists were the victors, Commenting upon, this subject, W. W. Jermane, Washington correspondent and Associate Rditor of the Seattle Times, “in a recent dispatch said: In the light of the history of the Fugi- tive Slave Law, it is foolish to charac- terize nullification in its present mild form as dry leaders have been characterizing it for several years. The country will live through it, and be little the worse for its experience. But prohibition will, and must, get into polit i the renuous ef- forts the politicians are making to keep it out. WHen it gets in, nobody can tell what the effect on existing party organizations will be. Doubtless that explains why party leader re so afraid of it. The Fugitive Slave Law, like the Volstead law, was based on a constitutional provision, ’APER AGAIN. The announcement that Skagway will again have a newspaper after June 1, with Miss Katherine Hahn and G. J, Farwell as proprietors, is pleasing to all Who are interested in the historic old gateway to the Yukon. 'The paper will be the Skagway Alaskan, it is announced, a name that is naturally associated with that town, for it is the name of the second paper to be established at that place. Outliving all the other papers of the Gateway City it thrived there from February 1, 1898, until four years ago when it suspended publication, and the plant was sold. The SKAGWAY TO HAVE NE owners of the new publication are well equipped for the task they have assumed. Miss Hahn, daughter of V. I Hahn, Superintendent of the White Pass and Yukon, was born and reared in Skagway. She was graduated from the Skagway grade and high schools. Two years ago she was graduated from the University of Washington with a Bachelor of Arts degree. She took the full course in the university School of Journalism, onme of the best of such schools in the United States. Mr. Far- well has been a resident of Skagway for sometime, and attended ,an Bastern school of journalism. The wish that the new Skagway Alaskan might live long and meet the reward that good newspapers deserve is the hearty sentiment of The Empire.

Jerome in a speech at Bristol Little Theatre. ‘“‘The theatre must attract a big audience or go hankrupt,” he declared. “A play to be successful in the we end of London must draw nearly £2,000 a week. When riches like that come pouring in through the box office window, Art flies out at the stage door.” The big manager, Mr. Jerome explains, does not ask whether a play is good or bad. He asks: “Has (it got a punch in it? Will it bring them in?” By “them’” he means the people who regard the theatre an interlude between a dinner and a danco— the people who go to the theatrc ih the hope of being |excited by sensationalism or by sexuallty. “An appetite grows by what it feeds on,” he con- tinued. “There is danger of the British stage becom- ing ink of sexuality. To be successful every new play has to go a bit further. The thing works in a vicious eircle.” “In the provinces,” he sald, “there are not so many difficulties to contend with. The Little Theatré {gets known. It enters into the life of the town. should like to see a Little Theatre In every fown of {more than 40,000 people. And it can be done. The Little Theatre is needed to keep alive the English drama. Today half the theatres in London are con- trolleq from America. The other halt soon will be It is .omly a question of time. “London isn’t all England—not yet, thank God," he added.” as Omaha Wants the Al Smith Convention. (Hastings, Neb., Tribune.) It is a recognized fact, not only in New York, but throughout the land that Al 8mith today stands out as the strongest and most logleal candidate for the Democratic Presidential nomination, Of course, there was quite a strong McAdoo sen- timent shown for a while, but it quickly faded away after the feeling of the public pulse. It there was any doubt as to the sttong support behind Al Smith, it was dispelled when the Jefferson Day banquet of the National Democratic Club was held in New York. At that gathéring ot prominent and powerful Democrats it was a unanimous con- census of opinion that Al Smith would have to be the Democratic standard bearer for 1988, To show how the situation stands New York has openly stated that she will not ask for the great Democratic Convention. N In commenting upon this, Hdgar Howard said: New York does not want the 1928 Na- tional Democratic Conventlon. New York does not want it because Al Sniith does not want it, and Al Smith {s New York, politi- cally speaking. He can win and hold the delegates from all that New England coun- try, no matter in what city the convention shall be held. By favoring some other city -—Cleveland, Chicago, Omaha or Des Moines, the Smith managers feel that thereby they may pick up a few delegates in territory not now in harmony with the general Smith program. If the Smith managers shall de- cide to make an earnest bid for delegates from any of the cornbelt States, I am ready to believe that they wil select Omaha or Des Moines as the convention city. That sshould be encouraging news to Democrats of Nebraska, because it shows clearly that Omaha has a good fighting chance to win the Democratic National Convention. It is & big thing, and worth going after—even the Republicans of this State would welcome such a large gntherlfi;,h,fld},fl!kl. JERES Recognition for Ofthopedic. (Seattle Tim s Both Houses of the Aldska Lelslature lave pass- ed a bill appropriating $8,000. for the Orthopedic Hospital in Seattle. The eonll:lb‘nlph to the upkeep of that fine institution is an "official recognition ot its service to Alaska and to theé heipless and unfor- tunate children of the Pacific Northwest. Thé® manner in which the Orthopedic Hospital has extended its benefits far beyond Seattle and the State of Washington is a source of satisfaction to the high-minded and public-Spirited women who look after its destinies. Orighally its field was limited to the treatment of crippled children, but it has grown and expanded until ‘it is today a general hospital for children. The Orthopedic Hospital is unique in its manage- ment and its upkeep. Im the East, where money has been accumulated and handed down through two or three generations, it is a common thing to endow worthy hospital However, in the West, where the present generation is just beginning to bequeath its fortunes, there are no great philantropies. The money for the Orthopedic is contributed by thousands and through the efforts of many noble women. Every dollar is sanctified by the love and good wishes of the donor.
