One of the safest and soundest of the schemes to | dispel the depression is that which is directed toward home-building. In good times or bad one of the most satisfactory investments for the savings of an average family is in a home of its own. A home is a tangible something. and put to a practical use. And it can claim all the points of a good sceurity in an investment. And there is something more than all that in home ownership. The average man or woman is proud to say “this is my own home, I own it.” The family that owns its own home is made happier through the ownership, and it becomes more contented every day that it uses a home of modern design with the multiple conveniences of the present. day. In addition to this, the one who builds a home in these times contributes to the community and National welfare. bought Liberty Bonds until it hurt, he is serving his country in a time of stress. He is making a market for building material and reducing unemploy- ment by providing work for those who otherwise would not have it. REGISTER AND VOTE The registration of Juneau voters is proceeding slowly. This is the last week for registering and but few more than half of the voters have their names in the books. It behooves everyone who is interested in Juneau and her government to get to the City Clerk’s office before Saturday evening and get his name registered so that he might vote next week for Mayor, Councilmen and member of the School Board. That is a public duty that everyone owes and one that is not to be difficul to perform. A PLEASING CONDITION. Deer are unusually plentiful throughout Southeast Alaska and the fawn crop this year will be one of the largest in recent years, according to Game War- den Frank Dufresne, who has made a survey of the situation. It had been feared that it would not be so on account of the heavy snowfall and the long period of cold weather. Doubtless the efforts of the game wardens and others to provide food is partly, at least, rseponsible for this desirable con- dition. This statement of Mr. Dufresne is pleasing to everybody, to those who hunt game in the open season and to those who get their pleasure in taking pictures or only seeing the beautiful animals in their wild state. THE EXAMPLE OF 1884. Not since 1884, probably, have the Democrats had so many outstanding men worth considering for the Presidency. In fact, in many respects the present occasion resembles that time when a great Governor of New York was nominated over Bayard, Thurman, Hendricks, Randall, Pendleton, Holman, Morrison and ‘other statesmen — not to mention Carlisle, Lamar, Hill, Vance, Daniel and other South- ern leaders. Gov. Cleveland was nominated prin- cipally because he had been elected Governor of New York by an unprecedented majority and had made an honest, fearless and competent executive of his State. It was the belief of the delegates that he would be a stronger candidate at the polls than any of the brilliant, tested and true leaders that had been ably fighting party battles for years. The situation now is a lot like that. Former Secretary of War Baker, Gov. Ritchie, Speaker Garner, Senator James Hamilton Lewis and others who have been named in connection with the 'party's Presidential nomination are brilliant, high-minded, earnest leaders, anyone of whom would make an excellent Chief Executive. Gov. Ritchie and Mr. Baker have proved their quality in executive capaci- ties. Their Americanism and Democracy are sound, and they have the stamina and courage to com- mand. Either would make an ideal President, and either would present the issues to the American people ably and fearlessly. But again, as in the case of Gov. Cleveland, we have a candidate that was elected Governor of New York by an unprecedented majority, and he has made an honest, fearless and competent execu- tive of his State. Also, like was the case of Gov. Cleveland, Gov. Roosevelt's availability has been long recognized. So clearly is this true now as it was in 1884 that the Republicans who have transferred their allegiance to the Democratic Party have done 5o with the idea in mind that the New York Gov- ernor would be the Democratic Presidential nom- inee. If the Democrats would fail to live up to the 1884 example, the number that would be disappointed would be so great that the recruits of the last year or two would have an excuse to return to their former allegiance. Good political sense would seem to demand the nomination of Gov. Roosevelt now as it demanded the nomination of Gov. Cleveland. —_— The death of Leslie M. Shaw, President velt's Secretary of the Treasury, brought to a.

Erin’s Future. (Cincinnati, Enquirer.) Erin’s future—what of it? The extremist party of de Valera appears to have gained control of the Irish Free State Government. The Fianna Fail is pledged to sever the political bonds that bind it |to the British crown. The de Valera party is dedi- |cated to the abolition of the oath to the King and making Ireland self-contained. | The Free State Government has stood for economic cooperation with England with a view to |tariff preferences. For ten years the Irish Pree State has stood equal with Australia, Canada and other British do- minions. Are we now to witness a halt in the transcendent progress of the Free State's affairs, a progress that has been greater than any evidenced through Ireland’s seven hundred years of travail— the isle's awakening to the possibilities of industrial development, the relieving of its agricultural bur- dens, its electrical progress? How is Ireland to profit from a radical change in policy by the severance of political and economic relations with her greatest—her absolutely essential —customer? Have the words “self-contained” and “independence” some cabalistic meaning and appeal It can be seen, examined |superior to the demands and suggestions of plain and practical common sense and interest? This must be true of some minds. But just how would Ireland go about preserving the national independ- ence de Valera preaches and to which he is dedi- cated? She is no longer a serf of the crown, but a member of the British Commonwealth of Nations. The Irish Free State is economically dependent upon Great Britain. The Free State's essential and practically only market is at her door. Considering | Englands’ tariff departure, how could a politically | severed and independent Ireland expect that special trade advantages would be given to a State denying allegiance to the great bund of countries now known as the British Commonwealth? Self-determination is an alluring phrase, bui we are living in a practical world and only those States which can claim to be economically independent properly can hope to win to complete political independerce. An Industry Campaigns. (New Orleans Times-Picayune.) Since the day, more than a century ago, when Ezra Daggett began to pack foods in “hermetically sealed” containers, the industry he is credited with starting in this country has registered marvel- ous advancement in methods and in scope. Its gains within the present generation have been almost | magical. Tts perfected pocesses, diversification of | products, and efficient distribution system have developed a business running into many millions annually and giving employment direct or indirect to many thousands. Incidentally, it has revolution- ized housekeeping in America to an amazing degree, saving time, trouble and labor for millions of house- wives, and making possible economies whose sum is vastly greater than most of us realize. Its growth and success doubtless have been owed largely to the spirit of its leaders. Never content to ‘let well enough alone,” they have welcomed the mechanical inventions and chemical research that steadily improved their processes and products and broadened their field of production. That spirit finds manifestation just now in a concentrated drive to expand sales and add to the great army of consumers by that most effective of modern devices—newspaper advertising. The National Can- ners* Association is launching a nationwide adver- tising campaign in the newspapers of scores of American cities. Conducted in co-operation with the dealers in their products and on behalf of the canning industry entire, it constitites to our way of thinking an excellent example of the “courageous advertising” recommended by outstanding business leaders at this time, and a testimonial to the intelligence and skill and foresight upon which the development and maintenance of many great American industries and businesses chiefly depend. Helping Out the Bears. (Seward Gateway.) Despite the demand for feeding babies and re- ducing- the breadlines of the adults in the States, John M. Holzworth, President of the National Asso- ciation of Wild Life Conservationists, Inc., finds time to sidetrack such insignificant matters to plead the cause of the Alaska brown bear. The Gateway is in receipt of a clip sheet, composed of expressions from a number of newspapers “away down East,” urging the creation of additional reservations for the brown bear. He asks The Gateway to join him in his “noble service.” Fair enough. We heartily garee that something should be done about it. Let all those advocates of stifling the Territory for the benefit of a few individuals who relish shooting a wild animal for the fun of seeing it die, harken to the cry against hoard- ing; buy a large slice of the public domain some- where in the black belt of Harlem, set a force of penniless laborers to razing the buildings and domi- ciles calculated to produce the cofréct psychic re- actions in an irracible brown bear, . Then round up the racketeers and toss them into the inclosure, and invite the gang out to witness a demonstration of the docility of brother Urside. We suggest Stewart Edward White as marshal of the day, the cere- monies to be opened by his stroking a brown bear’s whiskers. The Anti-Saloon League will put up $100,000 to defeat the party that nominates a wet candidate. Publicly or privately wet? — (Buffalo Courier-Ex- press.)
