Al' Smith in his home commonwealth This the defeat of a proposed amendment to tl Constitution for a four-year term for Governor which would have required the State election to be held in the same years that national tions are staged. Gov. Smith originally epons ‘a four-year term for Governors of New York but he was not willing that the term should coinc with the Presidential tenure of office. Tle con- tended that many issues enter into the State elections, having suprefie local importanee, which would be to a great extent subordinated during national campaign years with the result that the average voter, appealed to by party leaders for support would yield out of sentiment where the Presidency is involved to the disad- vantage of the State ticket. In the defeat of the proposed amendment his position is scen to be approved by a majority of the voters of the State. Inasmuch the Republican T control of the State Assembly, it much to conclude that the defeat of the amend- ment, which was submitted to the voters by a Republican Assembly, was a personal victory for Gov. Smith. It was supported by the Republican organization, the party having endorsed it at its recent State convention and its campaign speak- ers urging its adoption. FINES FOR GAME LAW VIOLATIONS. In a recent bulletin, the Department of A, culture noted that ed against persons convicted of violating the Alaska Game Law have been so heavy us to make the operations of the Alagka Game Commission self-supporting. It cites specific instances to show how this is accom- plished, as follow: As an instance of what has been accomplished may be mentioned the work of the river boat Beaver, after it had been operating on the Yukon system only two months. The Warden using the boat has been enabled to seize furs valued at approximately §9,000 and to collect license fees and obtain, court fines totaling $1,300. The cost of con- struction of this boat, which was put into operation only last June, was slightly less than $10,000, so that-it has already more 1 paid for itself. The furs seized were mainly beaver skins il- legally possessed. The cost for salary and traveling ex- penses of one deputy warden for a short period was $1,660, and during the per- jod he was on duty he seized furs and obtained court fines totaling §3,700 Again, a warden who operated on the Kuskokwim River system seized skins, ¢hiefly beaver, having a value in exce of $10,000 and collected back and cur- rent license fees and obtained court fines that amounted to about §5,000 This official, therefore, has paid for him- selt and his operating costs about three times over. Possibly the Department feels the need of Justifying the expenditures which it cites. It can hardly he that it feels any particular pride in the financial penalties inflicted on those who | have run afoul of the law and regulations. It e l&l justly be pleased with the efficiency of -its " operatives and not gloat over punishment dealt . out to the law's violators. The fact is that there 48 no reason from a standpoint of public policy game patrol shn_uhl‘hnvé to be self-support- _ghouldn’t be required to show a financial Justify its existence.

He has been faithful to Mr. Cool- idge, even to the extent of appearing conserva- tive in Washington, while by the banks of the raging Kaw he is as sympathetic with the woes of the farmer as Senator Capper himself.

With both Dawes and Lowden/ somewhat embarrassed by “Big Bill” Thompson's | {bulging ambitions, he is upon that basis not an {impossible contender. i Anyhow, one hat is in the ring. Mr. Curtis is assured that Mr. Coolidge's ‘“‘do not choose’ means “1 will not.” He would like the Presi-| dency and says so frankly.
