TROY PRESIDENT AND EDITOR ROBERT W. BENDER - - GENERAL MANAGER REGRET GARFIELD’S RETIREMENT. The news that Charles D. Garfield will soon retire from the Seattle Chamber of Commerce through the abolition of the special Alaska Depart- ment will cause regret in Alaska., This is not in- tended as a reflection on any other officer or member of that organization. There is no danger that the Seattle Chamber will lose interest in Alaska or its welfare. It will not. But Mr. Garfield is so thoroughly an Alaskan, his knowledge of the Territory is so complete and his adaptibility to the work he has had in hand for the last ten years is so genuine that his services will be missed. He has done a lot of excellent work for Alaska while n his official position with the Seattle organization ind before when a resident of the Territory. It is the hope of a lot of Mr. Garfield's friends hat he may return to the Territory he has served 2 long and so well and make his residence here.

ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION. When people with money begin taking up invest- aent bargains they are not far away from the ime when they will be out after bargains. When hat time comes they take up the best things they an find, and in a short time the road to normalcy vill be more or less direct. Of course, these process- s will not be worked out quickly, but there are »vidences that they are beginning. An Opportunity. (Anchorage Times.) Southeast Alaskans should set themselves to the task immediately of persuading the Detroit gold seekers to turn their attention to prospecting on the Alaska side of the international boundary, where there are many very promising mineralized areas. The fact that the Liard district of Southern Yukon has been reported upon adversely should not be permitted to send the Detroiters home discouraged. The abandonment of that project, with all of its costly preparation in the way of equipment and airplanes for transportation will have the effect of turning that influential group permanently against (mining ventures of all sorts if they are permitted to return to the States without having their atten- z SELFA |tion directed to some of the more promising regions i S ety hoa \helof, the Northland, where a fraction of the amount election st |expended on the Liard expedition would keep sev- he ought to be returned to that office. leral prospectors in the field for a full season or| The Empire believes that Mr. Dimond ought t0'more, with reasonable chance of uncovering some- be selected for Delegate.

CAMPAIGN IS BEGINNIN Senator A. J. Dimond has begun his campaign as the Democratic nominee for Delegate to Congress. He will make a thorough canvass of the Territory. Between now and the first of October he expects to visit all parts of the Second, Third and Fourth Divisions and to present the issues to the voters. The last month of the campaign he will devote to Southeast Alaska. Judge Wickersham, Republican nominee for re- election as Delegate, has also begun his campaign, many years.

The Anti-Saloon League sniffs at the Texas pri- mary vote on Prohibition and says claims that the State has gone wet are “misleading.” The refcr- endum is described as of a “non-binding or straw ballot character.” It wasn't, of course; for more than a quarter |of a million Texans voted in favor of resubmission lof the Eighteenth Amendment. But even if it had been only a straw vote the Anti-Salooners might heed an old saying: | The new disarmament program of President Hoover, as announced from Washington, is revo- lutionary in its scope and transcending in its bold- ness. It is the most radical reduction plan yet sug- gested to an armgment-ridden world whose debts from past wars and preparations for ones to come in the future have swept many nations to the SYNOPSIS: Troubles crowd upon Sondra Kent Merriman. She is secretly married to Mark Merriman, who is in the Congo trying to become wealthy. Her friend, John Anderson, seems to have become distant. And now her sister Flora, with whom she is living, tells her she is going to leave her hus- band, Ben. CHAPTER 17. A NEW ANDERSON Flora was proposing to behave in an abominally selfish way. And yet—was she herself any less sel- fish, Sondra wondered. Sondra knew she was not. She cared nothing for Flora’s happi- ness as long as her own life was secure; ~she had not even ecared for Mark’s happiness. She had not heen willing to share his life with him, she had shrunk from the bhardships and discomforts. If she could only see him again just for a moment, only be reas- sured of his love. She hardly closed her eyes all night, and when the maid ‘came in the next morning her first question was— “Have you seen Mrs. Lomax this morning?” “Yes, miss—" “Is she. .. asked. “Oh, yes, Miss—I am taking her breakfast up at nine.” Sondra gave a sigh of relief. Last night was a bad dream which the caylight had dispelled. ‘When the maid had gone she took up the telephone receiver from beside the bed and called John, 8illy to feel so different where he was concerned, they had part- ed the best of friends. Anderson’s man answered the phone—Mr. Anderson was not yet up, he told Sondra. He evidently recognized her voice for e asked if she could give & message. “No—nothing, thanks.; just ask verge of insolvemcy. The most radical except one, and that one was the Soviet proposal for complete abolition of military and naval forces. There is very little chance that either France or England, and none. that Japan will consider the President's plan very seriously. France has before this rejected less drastic programs designed to re- duce expenditures for military and naval establish- ments, arguing with considerable logical force that she must first have adequate security guarantees from the other great powers, including the United States. Our own country has decided in no un- certain manner it will not enter into “security pacts” even to bring aobut partial disarmament. It will hardly do so in the present instance, even though it might lend more weight to President Take a straw and throw it up into the air; you may see by that which way the wind fis.

Time may have dulled Garden memories, but it was just four years ago that Sharkey, fighting his way back from the Dempsey slaughter, battled Risko in the big Garden pit and got himself punch- ed vight out of Tex Rickard’s last elimination tournament in fifteen rounds. Someone had told Sharkey that the bounding baker boy from Cleveland was what the fight game calls a “hot touch.” Sharkey be- lieved what he was told. He had beatea Risko easily in ten rounds in Boston. All Johnny did in thelr second last summer, that the best the new champion could get was a draw. So the Garden may blandly sug- gest that Risko would make Shar- key a fine off-season opponent, bt there is little chance that Johnny will be nominated. If the Garden has forgotten, Sharkey has not.
