There does not seem to be many points of difference between the effect of the bill recently introduced by Senator Steel for a re-organization of the executive department of the Territorial Govern- ment and that which has been rejected by several preceding Alaska Legislatures. The word “comp- troller” is omitted, it is true, but the features that made the old plan objectionable are conspicuously present in the new one It creates a supergovernment, sets up an organi- zation that would succeed to practically all execu- tive and administrative power. And that is the extent of its accomplishments. As far as giving to Alaskans any more Home Rule than they now have, its effect would be absolutely valueless. It does not, it cannot, give to the people of the Territory any additional govenmentci authority. That can come from Congress alone The plan in only offices and office holding, and method of hiring a few men to perform such government as Congress has bestowed on the It seeks to rob the has mind the powers of Territory. Governor of all his cutive power, leaving him chief executive in n only. It would even take away from him his t itional duty of making recommendations to the Le ature, something that previous attempted legisiation on the subject did not undertzke do. The believes that the Legislature will be well advised if it, like its pre- decessors, will have nothing to do with the scheme. to Empire GOV. DIXON FOR ASSISTANT SECRETARY. Joseph M. Dixon of Montana, appointed by Presi- dent Hoover to be Assistant Secretary of the Inter- for, has served in both Houses of Corngress and as Governor of Montana.

He was Governor from 1921 to 1925 and defeated for re-election. He was Try If you want to sell anything—use THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, SATURDAY, MARCH 23, 1929. the Republican nominee for Senator in 1928 and defeated by Senator Wheeler. He was Chairman of the Progressive National Committee during the Roosevelt campaign in 1912. He supported Wilson in 1916 but was back in the G. O. P. in 1920. He has been prominent in Montana politics for more than thirty years. He is sixty-two years of age, and has six daugthers. A son died in infancy. COL. HARTMANN RETIRES. With the retirement of Col. J.

If the Mexican rebels could import a few of the Chicago gunmen their chances of overthrowing the Government would be perceptibly improved. If one is short on laughs he might take notice of the missionary effort to be made in Canada to eclaim bootleggers and rum runners. (Buffalo Tourier-Express.) Mr. Coolidge Goes Home. (New York World.) en Mr. Coolidge took office six ye: of the hope he held out for 1la plishment, he did do one thing: he poured an icy le of water down the spine of the blatant gid- diness that had taken possession of Washington in the mad glad days of the Ohio gang, and effect- ually quenched it. Cold he might be, dour, un- imaginative, lacking in geniality. But he was not cheap. Through the flint ran & vein of good taste, an instinct for things that are solid instead of things that are showy. So, as soon as he moved in, the White House lost that atmosphere of raf- fishness that had hung over it; it became seemly, and sober citizens ceased worrying sbout when the scandal would break. If he did this much on taking office, he did no less on leaving it. His return to Northampton, to his half of the two-family house that he occupied before he departed to take part in large affairs, is & rebuke to the Thank-God-I'm-Not-What-I-Used- to-Be Club, whose members number millions; it is a slap in the face of our national vulgarity. For we | may as well be honest about it: our chief infirmity, the thing that so appalls other countries, is our itch to get on, to forget our origins, to become Jacques instead of Jacob, to ditch the people we knew last year, and our naive assumption that this is all in life that matters. It is edifying, then, to see one American, and particularly an American of old American stock, who can take great success with complete casualness, who can remain what he WA&S | without even thinking of doing anything else. M. | Coolidge does not warm you as many public men Wi do, does not inspire your passionate affection. But it is possible sometimes to admire him greatly. Prohibition has accomplished one thing. It has knocked the spots from pure whiskey in this coun- try.—(Florida Times-Union.) a Classified. If you want to buy anything—use a Classified.

For the last 60 year¥ he has been one of Chicago's lead- ing racketeers. He says the only unpleasant feature of his life has been that he always has been hounded by life insurance agents trying to sell him big policies.
