ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER HAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION. i A MASTERFUL ADDRESS. To the largest audience that ever assembled in Juneau at a political or any other sort of a meeting | tor Dimond last night presented the issues of present campaign and his position on them in asterly addre He demonstrated beyond all chance for argument the reasons why Alaska voters, ought to vote a straight Sen in this election at least, Democratic tick not being represented, that its interests and welfare are being sacrificed by the present Administration without anyone being at Washington even to offer protest. { The main remedy offered by Mr. Dimond for| the ills of the Territory was home rule. He wants the Territory to care for her own affairs. He said | the Terr ought to have power to legislate for | and to regulate her fisheries, and fur and game | animals and birds. He declared that De]egate; Wickersham is not in favor of home rule, but does | favor the present arrangement. He sustained | his charge with documentary evidence of the record at Washington The arraignment of the treatment of Alaska by the present Administration was complete, clear and convincing. He showed why Alaska ought to be included in the “New Deal” promised by Gov. Roose- velt, whose election, Mr. Dimond said, was assured. And, he urged, the only sure way to have Alaska counted in the deal is for her to elect the Demo- cratic ticket. Alaska must show the incoming Administration | that she, in spirit and aspiration, is in agreement with the voters of the country who are about to order the “new deal.” The safest way to do that 50 none can mistake it is to elect the Democratic ticket in Alaska. i The argument is sound. Of course, the first duty is to elect Mr. Dimond. But he ought to be sent to Washington with credentials that will prove that he was not an accident—that he was not elected particularly because he is more popular or better thought of than his opponent. He ought to be given credentials that will show that he is a Democratic representative of a Democratic Territory—a Territory that is wholly in tune with the Nation as a whole. That can be done by electing a straight Demo- cratic Ticket in the Territory. SILLY CHARGES. Republican campaign speakers, including Presi- dent Hoover, former President Coolidge, Secretary Mills and others, have complained of the efforts put forth by the Democratic House of Representa- tives last winter to meet the depression and un- empoyment issues. This talk is ridiculous. They know that the Democratic leaders in the National House of Representatives knew they would not get favorable action from a Republican Senate and a Republican President for what they regarded as proper remedial legislation. President Hoover "had vetoed Senator Wagner's effort to aid unemployment after it had been put through a Republican Congress. Democrats abandoned measures when they saw that the President’s support could not be obtained. They knew that his support would be finally neces- sary. They were engaged in a serious effort to get legislation, and did not propose to make Congress a debating club, so why take up time without hope of progress. At that it is claimed by independent econmists that the best features of the legislation that was finally obtained on unemployment were from Senator Wagner’'s proposals which the President had vetoed. | The truth is that the Democratic House leaders took seriously the high-minded invitation of the | President for non-partisan co-operation in the relief measures. They did not know then that they would be attacked for the spirit of compromise and con- ciliation they exhibited in their effort to get results. READY TO TAKE A CHANCE. Some of the men' of the medical profession with investigative minds contend that the depres- been productive of ‘better health. One Yy puts it this way: “People having less money have adopted a simpler form of living, with more relaxation and an elimination of the intense fatiguz produced in the era of high industrial production and constant pleasure seeking.” All of which is probably true. as far as we know, but there are a lot of people that would be willing to take a chance on their health if they could get a little more business activity. IMAGINATIVE JOURNALISM. That Japanese newspaper editor that has figured out an American intention of digging a tunnel under Bering Strait and marching through it an invading army in an attack on Asia that will not terminate until peace is dictated in Moscow is in a class by himself. However, we hope he is doing well where he is for there i5 no big salary waiting for him in -the-Occident. Noi even a New York |Roosevelt has a He showed that the Territory is | * | country. tabloid could use such an imagination. There is no market: in' the United States, supposed to be the land of sensationalism, for such vast quantities of hooey as Japanese papers seem to accept. One of the noteworthy things indicated in the Presidential polls of the Literary Digest and other publications is the number of first voters who are casting ballots for Gov. Roosevelt. The indications are that more than 70 per cent. of the young meh and women who have become voters since the last election are voting for the Democratic nominees this year. Chile's deficit for the fiscal year is just a little more than $9,000,000. What a charming little deficit! The first big political meeting in Juneau for the 1o surpass. Farmer Roosevelt. (Beattle Times.) A very pretty though possibly complex problem of politics has been injected into the campaign by Candidate Roosevelt's professiomr of sympathy for the farmers on the ground he is one of them and knows what they are all up against. Governor farm—there’s no dispute about that; but what kind of a farm it is and what he knows or doesn't know about farming form an issue that partisans on both sides deem worthy of discussion. Henry Field, who happily bested Smith Brook- hart in Iowa's Republican Senatorial primary, says Roosavelt is “playing guessing games with the farm- ers” when he talks about agriculture. Says Mr. Field: The kind of farm relief he (Roosevelt) proposes may be explained by the kind of farm he lives on. It has all the conven- iences a New York gentleman farmer could enjoy. There is no hog lot, but there are polo grounds and tennis court. What ap- pears ‘fo be a silo is a water tower for care of the lawns and sunken garden. What looks like a henhouse is really a hothouse. Few Iowa farmers have a con- crete swimming pool. Governor Roosevelt has two on his farm. Now it is obvious that Governor Roosevelt might have just such a farm as Mr. Field describes and still know a lot about farming. The fact that !many farmers have to get off their farms to enjoy themselves is no argument against the installation lof the devices for enjoyment that Mr. Field has |enumerated. But former Governor Davis of Vir- ginia, farmer and publisher of a farm paper, as well as a sturdy Democrat, gets very mad about it. He says he visited Governor Roosevelt's farm and found it an up-to-date going agricultural concern. |As for Henry Field's criticism, the gentleman from Virginia has only this to say: Eyes that saw water tanks disguised as silos, polo grounds that do not exist; ears 1 deaf to the squeal of hogs, the cackle of | hens, the lowing of cows and the bellow | of bulls, obviously were trained for Re- ! publican propaganda. So there you have the issue neatly joined as to whether the Democratic Presidential candidate is or isn't qualified by knowledge and experience |to say just what ought to be done for the farmers. | Rotten System. (Anchorage Times.) The many Alaska friends of Pilot Frank Dor- bandt will rejoice in the announcement coming from Seattle today that the Government has not been able to connect him with that widely adver- tised alleged international fur smuggling conspiracy. The regrettable phase of the case is that the Government proceeded, as it too often does, without first making certain that there was a conspiracy, and, in doing so, compelled innocent persons to suffer. Reputations do not count for much when the strong arm of the law reaches out for victims and there is no one to make good the losses sus- tained by ‘“suspects” during the time the Govern- ment is working up cases against them. The pro- present campaign set a mark that will be difficult | | tel.

But it was Inot to be expected that Mr. Lloyd George in making |a speech to his “fellow farmers” could confine him- self to the supject of potatoes. He soon got on to Ottawa, where, he was told, “something had hap- pened.” He wished the Prime Minister would say what. The Dominions seemed to have gone home very well pleased; but as a farmer he could not see what he got out of it—except a pig in a poke. He went on to deplore the depopulation of the countryside and the decline of agriculture. It should, he said, be brought home to the town- dwellers that the life of this country, especially in war-time, depended on the cultivation of its soil. |Marketing schemes and the attraction of more capital to the industry were urgently needed, and he hoped that a genuine Country Party would be formed to press these matters upon the Government. It must have been an awful blow to Norman Thomas to have Dr. Clarence True Wilson come out for him, but he has decided to go on with the campaign anyway—(cmclnnm Enquirer.)
