MBER LATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER NY OTHER PUBLICATION,® ST CALL. THE LA Several hundred persons entitled by residence, citizenship and other qualifications to vote in next Tuesday's municipal election are apt to be without a vote, on the basis of current registration figures. Friday, with only one more day in which to perform that essential function to voting, only about 900 residents of this city had registered. There are at Jeast 1,200, and probably considerably in excess of that figure, individuals here who are qualified to vote but who cannot legally do so in the municipal election without registering. It is clear that many will lose the right to vote unless they wake up today. ‘There is every reason why those entitled to so do should vote in mext week’s balloting. There are two complete tickets for Mayor and Councilmanic vacan- cles in the field. A School Director is to be elected. A public utility ordinance is to be approved, or re- jected as the case may be, by the electorate. These are all of sufficient importance to the community's welfare to cause every citizen to exercise his right to vote. Juheau, as the Territory's largest city, ought to have the largest registration. As its most prosperous and active community, the interest of its people can be evidenced in no way more significantly than by registration and then by voting. The City Clerk's Office, which is registration office, is, as usual, making the task as convenient as possible for everyone. It is open all day for those who can use it then. To accommodate the day workers, unable to get away from the jobs at that time, it is open evenings. Tonight, between 7 and 9 o'clock is the last opportunity. Those who so far have neglected to register, ought to take advantage of it. A GREAT PARK. By the addition of Wonder Lake and other areas late last month, the area of Mount McKinley Na- tional Park was increased to 1929493 acres, or _more than 3,000 square miles and is the second largest of the nation’s parks which last year were visited by more than 2500000 people. Yellowstone Park, with 3,426 square miles, is the largest. The Alaska park is one of the most wonderful in the system and, as its attractions become better and more widely known, it will grow to be a tourist mecca. It is not only the farthest north of the National Parks of the United States, but also contains the highest mountain on the North American continent. In addition to this distinction, Mount McKinley rises higher from its base than any other mountain in the world, not excluding the far-famed Himalayas. The total height of the great peak is 20,300 feet, and on its north and west sides it rises abruptly fom a tundra-covered plateau only 2500 to 3,000 feet above sea-level. Mount McKinley rises 17,000 feet above timberline, and for two-thirds of the way down from its summit it is enveloped in snow throughout the year. Clo#y rivaling scenic Mount McKinley as a spectacle are the great herds of caribou and Dall sheep that roam the park area. Indeed, it was mainly to afford these animals protection that the National Park was established in 1917. Tt is interest- ing to note that during the past few years hunters outside the park have found the supply of game increasing, due to the overflow from the protected area of the park The inclusion in the park of the Wonder Lake area, lying to the northwest, is important from three main standpoints: From this area may be obtained the most advantageous view of the great mountain obtainable anywhere in the park; the lake- shore affords the best location for the establishment of a tourist center within the park, with hotel and other facilities; and its lowlands provide excellent pasture for the park’s wild animals, as well as affording them protection from hunters during the winter season when these animals migrate to the Jowlands. Good fishing also is available at Wonder Lake, and boat trips can be developed for those not wishing to take the longer, more pack trips. CHARMING PERSONALITY IS GONE. Sir Horace Plunkett, the great Irishman who died the other day, was not only a prolific writer of books and pamphlets, particularly on Irish sub- jects, but he was said to have had more sincere friends and admirers than almost any other public man of his time. ‘singular charm. He liked people and people liked him. He had the confidence of those who differed from him gbout the issues in a most remarkable degree. Though at times he shared the common experiences of non-partymen, no one ever doubted his great abilities, his honesty, his courage or his unselfishness in his services to Ireland. His admir- ers presented him with one of the finest of the old Dublin houses as headquarters for his society. Sir Horace was & valued friend of Theodore Roosevelt with whom he was in frequent correspond- ence and whom he repeatedly visited in America. ); six months, in advanoe, h, in advance, $1.25. | will confer a favor if they will promptly notify the s Office of any failuré or irregularity laborious |when their struggle was at its bitterest, repeatedly |expressed their appreciation of his worth. When [the Free State came into being he was, with uni- | versal approval, nominated as one of the original |members of the Senate. An attempt was made by Republicans to cripple |the administration by intimidating Senators and |preventing them from discharging their functions. His | beautiful mansion Kilteragh, in County Dublin, where he had dispensed hospitality to hundreds of dis- | tinguished visitors from all parts of the world, was, with its records and artistic contents, burned to the | ground. | 1t was characteristic of Sir Hora¢e that when he was awarded compensation for his loss, he de- |termined to apply the money not to the rebuilding of his own mansion, but to the erection of num- |erous houses in the neighborhood thus relieving the ;shortflg(‘ of housing accommodation.

(Olympia Olympian.) One of the most amazing things in recent history is the way the tragic events of the last few days have demonstrated anew the tremendous-hold that Colonel Lindbergh has on the American people. It is doubtful if any other American ever occu- | pied a position quite like his. From being a human being, with ordinary frailties and imperfections, he has become—not exactly a demi-god who can do no wrong, but an institution which is established on an absolutely solid and permanent basis. That flight to Paris is a long way in the past now. Other great flights have been made since then, other sensations have come and gone, other heroes have arisen to have their day in the lime- light and then fade out of the picture; but the peak on which that amazing flight landed Lindbergh { has grown higher with the passing years. Probably no other conceivable event short of the nation’s entrance into a great war could have stirred the American people as deeply as the kidnaping of the Lindbergh baby stirred it. During the past weeks it has been almost the only topic of conversa- tion. You hear people discussing it on street cars and in buses; the waitress who gives you your sandwich in the restaurant, the bootblack who shines your shoes, the acquaintance you meet on the street—all have wanted to know the latest news. And this hasn't been merely an evidence of public desire for sensation. The loss of the child was a personal matter to almost everyone in the country. People did not simply feel that a hor- rible crime had been committed; they felt that |teir own deepest sympathies had been outraged, and lin a very real way they suffered with Colonel and |Mrs. Lindbergh. | Many times in the past the public has shown how greatly it cherishes its most famous aviator. Now, in the time of his greatest sorrow, it has revealed the full extent of the way in which it has made him its own. Henceforth, apparently, we have an unofficial first citizen whose status cannot change; and, in his charming wife, we have an unofficial, deeply-loved first lady. Hindenburg Against Fascism. (New York Times.) President Hindenburg's announcement that he will again be a candidate is a notable victory for the cause of peace and moderation in Germany and therefore in Europe as a whole. If we look for a single cause of the high state of international ten- sion on the Continent, it will appear that even more important than economic prostration has been the emergence of Adolf Hitler in the Reichstage election of September, 1930, with his program of overturn at home and abroad. President Hinden- burg, long silent, has now taken his stand against Hitlerism. His statement, to be sure, stresses only one need and one duty—the preservation of Ger- man unity. But the circumstances in which he has made his choice makes it plain that he regards na- tional unity as threatened by the Fascists and their Nationalist allies. Chancellor Bruening originally proposed extension of Hindenburg's term for a year. That offer was rejected by Hitler, contrary to general expectations, including President Hindenburg him- self, who hesitated about becoming the candidate of anything less than a nation-wide coalition. Tt is impossible to read in his present decision any other meaning than that for the good of the country the anti-Republican bloc of Hitler and Hugenberg must be kept out of power. Hindenburg was not originally a candidate in the Presidential election of 1925. The Right bloc put up Jarres against Marx, the candidate of the democratic coalition, and Thaelmann, running for the Communists. In the second election, made necessary by the fact that no one had received a majority of all the votes, the Nationalist bloc substituted Hindenburg for their original candidate and thereby rolled up an additional four million votes and a majority. How many votes can Hin- denburg now swing to the democratic parties who have made him their choice against his supporters of 1925? Granted that the Nationalists have openly denounced Hindenburg as a traitor and that many of Hitler's younger followers are not under the spell of Hindenburg’s name, it is still inconceivable that it has lost all potency. Even without Hinden- burg the Breuning coalition can probably command a majority in a popular election. His accession should assure a republican victory. Someone has suggested that all the editorial writers who shouted about “lame ducks” for so many years will now have to find a new subject.—(Cin- cinnati Engquirer.) .
