ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHE™ “UBLICATION P Mt cilieind. S e e e Troadwell and ’ - —_— GOV. BONE RECOVERING. The news that Gov. Bone is recovering from | his late very serious illness is gratifying to! the hosts of friends he and Mrs. Bone have throughout Alaska. No residents of this Terri- tory ever left behind them more and warmer | personal friends than Gov. Bone and his gracious wife and the Territory has no better friends any- where The news last winter that Gov. Bone|g; had been stricken and taken to Arizona caused | a severe shock to the people of the North, and the progress of his recovery has been followed | with anxious interest by devoted friends. That it may be speedy and complete is the wish of everybody THOSE ATTACKS ON GOV. SMITH Two little incidents proved both the futility and the falsity of the attempt to tie Gov. Smith to Harry Sinclair and the Teapot Dome The | first is that when it was discovered by the New | York Herald Tribune, perhaps the leading Re- publican paper of the Nation, that one of its political reporters furnished the alleged informa-| tion upon which Senator Nye and Senator Rob- inson based their attacks, the reporter was im- mediately dismissed from the paper's service The other incident is told in Time, the “‘weekly newsmagazine': ‘When parties triumph through one man's work in Congress, his colleagues usually crowd around to shake his hand. That was a curious thing about the Rob- inson episode last week. When he sat down, when he went out; when he re- turned, observers noticed,that no other Republicans went near him. When one considers how immensely pleased Would be the Herald Tribune and the Republican Senators if Smith could be eliminated from the political picture these incidents disclose that they know him well enongh to know that he has not been mixed in anything that not square. That is the secref of Gov. Smith’s immunity from the attacks of blackguards and liars ‘l‘“H down- Gov is rightness is so thoroughly understood that the mud they throw is never mistaken for any- thing else. Even his political enemies know that Gov. Smith is square and they know that the people also know it \ERMO\T l-‘OR COOLIDGE. The announcement of Semator Dale that Ver- mont will stand solidly notwithstanding that he will not tion to Kansa behind her has repeatedly a candidate, and send City instructed to vote for the renomination of President Coolidge will strike a sympathetic chord throughout the country. Presi- dent Coolidge is a typical product of the old Green favorite son, said that a delega- he be Mountain State and his administration has ex- emplified its best traditions. As cool and stable as Vermont's mountains, he has had a cooling and stabilizing- effect on the country. During| his incumbency of the White House the people have taken on a good deal of the Vermont view- point. They have become less excitable and are not so prome to cultivate discontent. They are willing that capital might earn a fair return. They have not been so inclined to howl lamenta- tions when a corporation declares a reasonable dividend. In fact they have come to regard the announcement that an industry or transporta- tion company or other concern, large or small, has been successful and made a good profit in its operations as good thing—a sign of further progress and greater prosperity for everybody. a Vermont has a right to take some pride in her contribution to the country, for it needed very greatly a calm period. It has had it, and the calm President helped immensely in making it. There can be no reasonable objection from any source in Vermont’s exhibiting he voting for a third term for pride by her favorite son. TRYING TO BROW-BEAT THE SOUTH. A large proportion of the Methodist and Bap- tist preachers of the South, including Bishops and every-day ministers, have set out to brow-beat Southern Democrats jnto opposing Gov. Smith for the Presidential nomination. They are not only threatening the party with defeat in case the New York Governor should be nominated, but they have declared unending warfare on all “those who do not bow to their dictation. They insist that everything — including other issues, convictions, principle and the character of public * officials—must be subordinated to the Prohibition dssue. They march hand-in-hand with sheeted and hooded Ku Klux Klan outlaws. They are willing to nullify every law of the land, except the one law they think it a sin and traitorious ‘to outlaw, in order to win, M ministers, whether they know it or not, “ for a fall. They are doing more to ‘their church than they are for any cause ‘they espouse, There are too many colleges in ‘South, 100 much intelligence, too much free- Second and Main| hs, In advance | aper and also the |, dom of spirit, too much Iliberalism to pflmll | bigotry, intolerance and jgnorance to sway the country. The inevitable result of this sort of church dominated politics will be decreased church membership and support.

Colonel Lindbergh and our conspicuously gal- [lant men of the air, who have achieved so nobly in this department of adventure, can claim no exclusive monopoly of glory in this respect. | Indeed, they would be the first to concede that | this is so. Chivalry is the fundamental charac- teristic of the truly brave and worthy. | Therefore it is but natural that Americans should greatly admire and honor and make \lly welcome those splendid knights of the .

(Everett, Wash., News.) Power is taking’ to the farm,the conveniences that in cities have been a lure to ruralities. The one thing more than any other that is going to check the big city from growing is power transmission. At least so thinks Alexander Dow, President of the Detroit Edison Cowmpany. Through power transmission the working- man's dream of a home in the country with a garden, chickens, and plenty of fresh'air for the children is rapidly becoming possible. power transmission develops,” says Mr. Dow, “the small manufacturer and even large in- dustries will carry their factories and business to the source of production or to the cheapest land. This means the workingman will follow his work to the smaller villages, where it will be possible for him to enjoy the things denied him in a con- gested city.” Furthermore, power transmission will do much to stabilize farm life and thus serve to check the abandonment of the farms for the fascinations of the cities. > Communities that were almost totally isolated 10 years ago now have every modern electrical convenience, and the end of scientific marvels is not yet, but rather have such marvels just begun. Americans Going to Canada? (Prince Rupert News.) For a number of years Canadians have been |leaving the country and going to live in the States. Now we are to see a change and Ameri- cans have begun to invade Canada and Canadians to return. Attempts have been made at various times to manufacture political capital over thé exodus from this country. As a matter of fact it was the fault of no party or group but simply one of those movements which follow periods of prosperity. The tide has set toward Canada just now and we must make the most of it while it is that way for after a period of years it will again turn. Owing to the immense development in progress in this country the change is not likely to come for some time. This is to be Canada’s century and we shall see a great growth here beforg long. What we have to do is to try to keep Prince Rupert in line with development and to see that we share in the progress which is due in other parts of the countr, Propaganda is poison to editors, who, natur- ally, are jealous of the integrity of their editorial columns. To such lengths is it being carried, and so apparent is it in design and purpose to the discerning editorial eye, that commercial and industrial interests financing these evanescent ‘‘organizations” to spread propaganda actually de- feat their own ends laudable though those ends ma )ho in instances,—(Seattle Business Chron- icle, - S SRS | An unsuccessful <andldate for office in Illi- nois published his statement of expenses in the following manner: “Had nothing, spent nothing, 8ot nothing.”— (Florida Times-Union.)

Every time her mother asks her [to wash the dishes or help | straighten up the house, daughter wonders what they mean when | they say there are no slaves these days. People say they like to have what they do appreciated and | then they'll keep themselves busy | trying to run other folk's affairs for them, when they know of all the jobs on earth that one carries the least thanks. A cynic is an old married grouch who thinks a woman wouldn't mind marrying a man who was tongue-tied providing lie wasn't deaf. Another thing science might ex- plain is why a woman always thinks she could train the neigh- bor’s children better than the neighbor does and makes the neighbor's husband a subdued an- gel when she has had such poor success with her own kids and meal ticket.
