The same thing has T e Delegate that it 1s mot |occurred in many other States. a nice thing to see an outsider coming to the Territory to hold one of the most important positions in Alaska The Judge of the First Division is indeed an important personage, with important work always before him. It is unfor- tunate that it not an Alaskan who is to have this high position, and it is unfortunate that outsiders are so often sent to te important offices in the Territory. We think, this position should be filled by an Alaskan, that all positions should be filled by Alaskans, yet it would appear that Mr. Sutherland might be consist- ent in his position President Coolidge nominated Ritchie for a Judgeship in the Third Division. Mr. Sutherland fought the nomination, with others. The Presi- is with the Delegate, that E. E. dent withdrew his name and nominated E. Coke Hill, a man who was formerly an Alaskan but who had left it and its destiny many ars before. Mr. Suther- land made no protest against his con- firmation.

We have no record of Mr. Sutherland opposing Judge his confirmation Reed was nominated agai the President for Judge in the Division. Mr. Sutherland and protested unsuccessfully against his con- tinuance in office. Judge Reed was an oldtime Alaskan and admitted by friénds and enemies alike to he an able, up- right jurist. The Delegate for personal reasons saw fit to oppose his continuance in office. by Fir: others And now, after the Delegate sat by to see several outsiders named for im- portant Federal positions in Alaska, he rises to protest against Mr. Adams. He is guoted as saying that he has nothing against the man personally, but merely bases his protest on the ground thht he is not an Alaskan Why this burst of speed on the part of the Delegate? Is it because he real- izes that election day is drawing near? Is his action consistent with his stand In the Hurley, Hardi Hill appoint- ments? The answer at it is not, that he is n getting away from the desire to serve Alaska well, Can he recon his opposition to Mr. Adams in view of the fact that he bas heretofore and no doubt in the pres- ent situ n endorsed ( les H. Miller, a discredited former A United States Attorney in Alaska Miller has not spent five full year 25 years in the Territory, yet Sutherland would parade him as< an old- time Alaskan. In view of the general muddle in Alaskan appointments, the fact that there is not an attorney in the Terri- tory who would not have grams, affidavits and him from one source or another if he were appointed to this important post, it is not to be wondered at that the President saw fit to chosoe an outside man. It is a condition brought about ‘by mo ome in the world except Mr, reams of tele- charges against In the City of Chicago a Government prohibi- tion enforcement officer shot a Municipal Court bailiff. The agent fled to sanctuary in the Fed- eral Building to avoid arrest. The city police sought to serve a Wwarrant charging him with ult with intent to kill. He was harbored fed by Federal authorities. They refused to give him up. This was bald contempt for the rights of the State of Illlinols, its Courts and for the Constituticn of the Republie. The police officer was shot when in' an at- tempt to get out of a raided restaurant. He averred that he believed it to be a hold-up and desired to get his wife, who accompanied him, to a place of safety Shooting fleeing persons seems to be a fav- crite practice with enforcement agents, and they usually shoot to kill. Could there be clearer evidence of the right of the State of Illinois to jurisdiction than is here presented? By virtue of what process of reason- ing could the Government rightfully claim juri diction to deal with this man, charged with at- tempted murder? But such claim is made, has been made often and enforced, even where innocent pecple have been killed by Federal enforcement agents, under the belief that they we being assailed by bandits. These gentry have back of them in defending themselves the power of Federal Court, the assis ance of Government-employed lawyers. Very few of them ever have been convicted. Consequently |these agents have slight regard for State pro- tection of life. The German Mining Dispute. (Manchester Guardian.) The course of events in the coal-mining dis- pute in the Ruhr is in striking contrast with recent events in Britain. The arbitrator award- ed the miners a wage increase of 8 per cent. and a reduction of hours to surface workers spite of the strong opposition of the coal owners the Reich Minister of Labor has declared the award binding “in the public interest.” In Eng- land we have no compulsory arbitration of this kind; had we had the stoppage of 1926 would never has happened. The German Government’s action has not, however, gone unchallenged, and it has led to the demand of the owners for an increase of coal prices to meet the cost of the award, which they declare presses onerously on an industry already working at a loss. This will probably be granted. It remains to be seen how far the other prophecies of the owners— the closing down of pits, the dismissal of per- haps 50,000 men, and the loss of markets to ]|thm‘wi|l be fulfiled. Both countries are suffering from overproduction and prices which are too low to cover costs. We Think Se, Too. i (Port Angeles News.) Yakima Republic editorially refers to the that Bd Sims, Jefferson County Represen- tative, was the mechanic who ran the convention at Yakima to suit himself. The editorial con- tinues that Sims should be Governor of the State of Washington. That is not such a bad idea, and some day when Ed is through playing around with mines, fisheries and pulp mills he may be Governor. The News, for one, would consider it a privilege to support a man of the calibre of Ed Sims for Governor of the State of Washington. He would give the Republican Party @ progressive administration Ed Sims is a good roads advocate. He is a h'lm nll;lmu organizer of men and he knows what it is a hout. ite of Washington would be in good hands with Sims in the mansion. In The fact Wisconsin is for Smith.
