ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION, CRIPPLES AND PUBLIC OFFICE. In his Fairbanks speech, Judge Wickersham, candidate for re-election as Delegate to Congress, referred deprecatingly to the fact that A. J. Dimond, his opponent, has a “game” leg. When a very young man in prospecting for gold in Alaska hills Mr. Dimond was shot in the leg from an accidentally discharged gun. The leg was badly damaged but the young man was in the best of health and with careful attention he recovered. However, he was lamed so that he could no longer follow prospecting. He went to Valdez and studied law, and in the course of a few years he was rated one of the best lawyers in the Territory. He not only succeeded in the practice of law but he served with distinction in four sessions of the Territorial Senate and many years as Mayor of Valdez. A bare recital of the facts discloses the lack of good taste in Judge Wickersham's reference to the “game” amendment of the Volstead Act so as to give the country good healthful beer and public revenues from that beverage. Furthermore, his acceptance speech and the Poling statement indicate very plain- ly that he is not sufficiently impressed with the situation that he would bring pressure to bear on Congress to act in the premises quickly. The surest way to get repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment and, pending repeal, good beer through a modification of the Volstead Act is to elect Gov. Roosevelt. That is so apparent that it ought to be plain to anyone. Dispatches indicate that Al Smith will not favor the re-election of Mayor Walker if he should become a candidate. He is quoted as being opposed to the election of an' official who resigns while under fire. Joseph Weldon Bailey and George “S. Terrill, re- cently nominated by the Democrats as Congress- |men-at-Large in Texas, were endorsed by the or- |ganizations seeking the repeal of the Eighteenth |Amendment. Sterling P. Strong, nominated for the {third place as Congressman-at-Large, was once | Superintendent of the Anti-Saloon League in Texas. The Baffling Horse. (Cincinnati Enquirer.) The kingdom of the horse is noted for its sur- prises, tragedies and its anomalous contrasts. Thus it certainly must have impressed our neighbors in the thoroughbred belt around Lextington the other day. The eyes of our Blue Grass friends anxiously sought the news from the yearling sales of thor- oughbred colts at Saratoga. From the Springs came the tidings that yearlings had touched their low. The average price for forty colts reached the un- heard-of figure of $217. One colt in the vendue brought only $10. And yet it was in the same grist of press dis- patches that the horse Orchestration finished sec- ond iIn a six-furlong race at Dade Park, giving those who had put $2 on him $626.54! Even more singular was the mathematics of horsedom by which, if the horse had finished first, he would have paid but 272 to 1. To heighten the contrast between the yearling prices this year there must be many Cincinnatians who remember the day when Wishing Ring paid off 941 to 1 when the record for long shots was established at Latonia in 1912. According to the Department of Animal Hus- bandry of Michigan State College, Michigan, the land of the truck and tractor has been reverting to the horse. Michigan has bought more horses since the first of the year than any other State in the Union. Over 10,000 horses have been put on Michigan farms. Five years ago a man was leg. However, this all causes the writer to recall a luncheon he attended in Chicago at a club where all are expected to think without repression and speak without reservation. There was a discussion at the luncheon table led by a prominent Repub- lican aspirant for a Chicago Congressional nomina- tion. He was very bitter in his denunciation of President Hoover. Another club member sitting at the table asked for whom he would vote for President. The Democrats had just nominated Gov. Roosevelt. He replied, “Roosevelt.” The man who had interrupted said he would not like to see a cripple in the White House. The Hoover denouncer replied that he would rather have a President crip- pled in the feet than one crippled in the head. STORAGE MAKES LAMB TENDER. On the average, lamb leg becomes more tender when held in cold storage 7 to 10 days after slaughter than if cooked at once, the United States Department of Agriculture has found in a cooking test. Some of the legs were cooked within two days after slaugthering while others were held as long as 25 days. They were all cooked under prac- tically uniform conditions. A committee of ex- perienced judges ate slices from the inside muscu, of the leg to test its aroma, flavor, juiciness, and tenderness. To check the judgment of the com- mittee, the meat was also tested with a mechanical tenderness indicator. The experiments were made cooperatively with the Bureaus of Animal Industry, Home Economics, Agricultural Economics and 26 State agricultural experiment stations and other livestock and meat agencies. THE SUREST WAY FOR RELIEF. While President Hoover favors the modification of the Eighteenth Amendment so that separate States, within certain limitations, might control the ligquor traffic within their boundaries, he has not committed himself on the question of the immediate lucky if he could sell a horse in that market for {$70. Now the average is $110. | Al this is to be explained by Old Man De- |pression, says the Michigan experts. But Kentuck- ians, long inured to the tricksy antics of the god- dess who presides over the destiny of horses, may shake their heads. Who knows but that the yearling sold for $10 the other day may win the Kentucky Derby? No Wrong-Doing intended. (Seattle Times.) The indictment of United States Senator James J. Davis and other officers of the Moose and the Eagles for alleged violation of the Federal anti- lottery law may be more of a revelation of the statute’s stringent provisions than of any grave wrongdoing by the accused. The anti-lottery law, if anything, leans over backward in its condemna- tion of these practices. It may be necessary that such a measure should be in force and should be enforced; but one may become liable under such an act without being conscious of moral culpability. All that Alaska requires in the way of Federal aid is the carrying on of needed Federal activities— activities which are imperative if the Government SY¥YNOPSIS: man tries to explain to her [so . . husband, Mark, that the gos- sip he has been told about John Anderson and herself is not true.

I'm not really unselfish—I don't want to sacrifice anything, but all the same . . .” She felt the tears on her cheeks, and she drew her hand from Mark’s to wipe them away. He turned quickly—"‘Sondra—" She would not look at him. “Do you love me, Sondra? if you do— nothing else matters.” For a moment she was silent; for a moment a wild impulse came to her to tell him the truth, to say “I don't love you—let me go —I ean’t stay with you.” But the moment passed, ing her weak and shaken. She had married this man be- leav- it his fault that she wanted him no longer?” John had said one should al- ways stand by their mistakes. . . She bent her head, smiling through her tears— Yet when she is about to sail with Mark, Sondra tells Jochn Anderson she is a cow- ard. Will she continue to protect Mark?
