ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER | THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION. ROOSEVELT RECOGNIZES ALASKA. Alaskans appreciate fully the interest Gov. Roose- velt exhibited in the Territory in his Seattle speech. Likewise they appreciate the thoughtfulness of Mrs. W. A. Holzheimer of Ketchikan, Democratic National Committeewoman from Alaska, whose telegram to the Presidential candidate called forth his expressed determination to aid in every way possible the. devel- opment of Alaska for the benefit of those who live in the Territory Gov. Roosevelt’s commitment on the Alaska situa- tion is timely, coming as it does in the midst of a period of woeful neglect of the Territory. The Federal Government has all but closed a lot of its activities here. Road building, the Geological Survey, rivers and harbors improvement, and other things are suffering because of recent governmental poli- cies. WISCONSIN G. 0. P. DEFEATS THE LA| FOLLETTES. Without more particulars comment on the Wis- consin Republican primary is not of much value. But a few things have become evident. The senti- ment that gave the Republican delegation of that State to President Hoover in the Republican Na- tional Convention is still active. There are evidently a lot of Republicans in the Badger State who do not believe their party should accept leadership from those who are not Republicans—who are not supporting the candidate of their party for Presi- dent. What the effect of the defeat of the La Follettes and the gaining of party control by the conservative element of the Republican Party will be on the general election must be appraised later. If it means the La Follette element will vote Democratic it would turn the State over to that party and give the electoral votes to Gov. Roosevelt. It is too soon to make predictions as to that. That the La Follettes have received a very important set-back there is no doubt. They have lost the Republican organization in Wisconsin. That may not amount to much right now but it might count a lot in future elections. ELECTION SEEMS CERTAIN. The New York Board of Elections has decided that there must be an election November 8 for the office of Mayor of New York City to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of former Mayor Walker. The matter will probably be tested in the courts, but the New York papers seem to believe that the Board of Elections knows what it is doing. Whether or not former Mayor Walker will get the Tammany nomination is not known. The action of Mayor McKee in cutting $80,000,000 or more from the budget hgs caused a boom for him. Bronx Borough, which has had a close alliance with Tam- many longer than any other Borough, will go down the line for McKee. Democratic Leader McCooey of Brooklyn, whose support of Walker would be abso- lutely necessary to get the nomination for him even though Tammany decided that way, has disclosed that he is not committed. A movement is on foot to give McKee an inde- pendent Democratic and Republican fusion nom- ination in case Walker is nominated by the regular Democrats. It is said McKee has declared that he will not accept a fusion nomination unless Walker is named by Tammany. If some other candidate is decided upon McKee will support him. It is re- ported that McCooey is inclined to favor the nom- ination of a Brooklyn man for the position. The nomination of a candidate for Mayor need not be certified until October 15, and Leader Curry of Tammany said that it may be that late before the nomination is decided upon. The New York Times thinks the longer the selection is delayed the less will be the chance of nominating Walker. The Republican Herald Tribune and the Demo- cratic Times think it possible that the demand for Mayor McKee, on account of his budget slash- jand two out of three Democratic Congressmen they of their courage—and for the sake of the few and small campaign contributions .that are still com- |ing in. | The circumstance that the Wisconsin Republican ipx-imary has probably put an end to any idea of ilhe adoption of the revolutionary theory of Gov. La Follette that there ought to be a redistribution of wealth through taxation will not be regretted. | | The great battle between New York's Yankees and Chicago's Cubs will interrupt interest in the | battle between Democrats and Republicans, but it must be. It will give the people a sort of rest and perhaps give them zest to listen in again to the politicians. Dr. Clarence True Wilson says Senator Borah would make an ideal President. How will the great Idahoan ever live that down? The Maine Election. (Cincinnati Enquirer.) The temper of the Nation's voters at the present ime is strikingly illustrated in the results of the Maine election. In electing a Democratic Governor declared in favor of a change and against Prohibi- tion. In burying a proposal to increase gasoline taxes they indicated that the limit of their patience and purses has been reached in the matter of]| taxation. Many factors united to bring about the election of the fourth Democratic Governor in Maine since the Civil War, but the most important of these must | have been economic conditions and dissatisfaction with Republican efforts to remedy those conditions. It is true that the Democratic candidate was wet, but the Republican candidate was not bone dry. Prohibition played a more important part in the Congressional races, where the wet and dry issue was clear cut and sharply defined. The fact that two of the three Congressmen from Maine, the original Prohibition State, will be wet is not with- out significance. Republicans cannot deny that the record of the National Administration figured in the election in! view of the fact that Ogden Mills, Secretary of the Treasurer, campaigned the State pleading with the voters to ‘“uphold Hoover.” During the remainder of the Presidential campaign Republicans will be kept busy attempting to convince the electorate that there are exceptions to all rules, including the one which holds that “as Maine goes, so goes the Nation.” This is a discredited legend, of course, but the Maine vote is an indication of the present temper of the voters. { Naturally Democrats will be heartened by the decision in Maine; it is8 a good omen. But they will do well not to rest on their oars if they expect to reach the port of victory. They must remember that elections are won in November. Higher Yet. (Manchester Guardian.) Professor Piccard's record ascent is not likely to go long unchallenged. Next time the most formid- able competition may come not from the balloon | but from the airplane. A “stratosphere airplane” ! has recently been built in France by the Farman} Company, and this craft, which is designed to reach |a height of 60,000 feet, is now going through its tests. There has also been a report that the firm of | Junkers are at work on a simidar machine. The object of these experiments, however, is not scientific | research, nor is it record-breaking, though new | knowledge may be gained and a new record set up by the way. that at a great distance above the earth an airplane | could travel, owing to reduced resistance and other factors, at extremely high speeds. It is even held that “trade winds” of immense force exist at a great height, of which the airplane of the future | might be able to take advantage. The Farman machine is designed for extreme high-altitude flying. The cabin is completely enclosed; air will be pumped in from outside, and oxygen may also be taken to provide a breathable atmosphere. The highly supercharged engine is intended to reach its greatest efficiency in the tenuous upper air. This “stratoplane” is an experiment which all inter- ested in the future of aviation will watch with the greatest interest. There are, of couse, great diffi- culties in the way of success. It may be that the “trade winds” do not exist, or that the weight of oxygen and equipment necessary will make long- distance high-flying impossible or unprofitable. But if this first tentative effort at exploration succeeds | we shall know whether the upper atmosphere is likely ever to contribute to the future development of serious flying. | On Decreeing a Five-Day Week. (New York Times.) Signor Mussolini, in turning to the five-day week as a cure for unemployed, may seem at first sight to be in the odd company of the American Federa- tion of Labor, which entertains the same views. But people who believe that the only way to get things done is by the dictatorship method will lose no time in pointing out that Mussolini can put the five-day week into effect overnight, whereas the A: F. of L. will need years to carry its point, if it succeeds at all. It is an argument by no means all on Musso- lini's side. It may be an advantage to enact over- night a badly needed tax law or a. badly needed slash in expenditures. But to enact the five-day week overnight is likely to prove a far worse method than to introduce it gradually and slowly. In the one case you jar an established economic system and perhaps lose more than you gain. The slower method avoids the danger of disruption and chaos. Soviet Russia introduced, overnight, the con- tinuous five-day work week and learned that it undermined discipline, destroyed responsibility and, wore out costly machinery. The continuous work week has been abandoned. Russia has also found that the attempt to abolish religion overnight did not yield the expected results. In Des Moines a city employee rides around with a broom sweeping up broken glass, and, boy, the ing, may be so great that Tammany will not dare turn him down. MORE DRY SETBACKS. Three dry Republican Congressmen have been defeated for renomination in New York and two of them have been defeated for re-election in Maine. That is a loss of five dry Congressmen in a very short space of time. This is just some more evidence, if more were needed, to demonstrate that Gov. Roosevelt knew what he was talking about when he sald the “Ejghteenth Amendment is doomed.” There are few to question it these days. It is sald that even Dr. Clarence True Wilson and Bishop Cannon admit it when in confidential moods. They proclaim to the public otherwise, but that is whistling for the sake broken glass is not pickle bottles.—(St. Louis Globe- Democrat.) Al Smith confesses he never had the time to read books. It is earnestly hoped no unscrupulous| writer tries to palm off a De Maupassant gem on the new editor.—(Detroit News.) But how could 'you expect a Nation that won't pay its debts to keep a disarmament promise?— (Toledo Blade.) ‘General Smedley Butler has come out for Roose- yelt, and that may not hurt the Governor's chances if his campaign managers can get a muzzie on the fiery marine soon enough.—(Cincinnati Enquirer,) The fight that should not be ended until it is won is the fight against high governmental costs.— (Louisville Courier-Journal.) |of the ferry house.
