The speedy and unanimous confirmation by the Legislature of Governor Troy's nominations for mem- - bers of the Board of Education and the Board of Trustees of the Alaska Agricultural College and School of Mines was merited. The high quality of the individuals picked for these positions and the standing of each in his home community was well- recognized. The readiness of the Legislature to confirm them in office makes it easier ‘for them to perform the duties vested in the boards of which they are members. The Board of Education will have to pioneer its way in the field of education. It is charged with duties no similar organization in the Territory has ever had. Many of them have heretofore been vested in local school boards, others in the office of Commissioner of Education, still others in the old Board of Education that it supplants, and quite a number are entirely new It has a large and important task entrusted to it—the administration and direction of the public school system. And in addition to the vote of confidence given to its mem- bers by the Legislature it will need the wholehearted support of all civic organizations and Alaskans gen- erally if it is to attain the high degree of success that its expect It has the authority needed to carry out its rules and regulations. It has an efficient Commissioner in Anthony E. Karnes. But with all of that, it will take almost unending work to perform the task set for it by the Leg- islature. In Herbert L. Faulker, one of Alaska's leading attorneys, the Governor picked a member at large as nearly ideal as could be desired. He has always taken active interest in local school matters, possess:s a keen analytical mind and unusually sound judgment, and has a wide knowledge of the Territory and its varied conditions. His counsel will be invaluable. . The First Division member, former Representative A. H. Zicgler, is almost as well known to Alaskans and knows them equally as well as Mr. Faulkner. He had the endorsement of his home town, Ketchi- kan, as well as the support of other communities. Michael J. Walsh of Nome, Second Division mem- ber, was warmly recommended by the legislative delegation of that Division. He has been Clerk of the Nome City Council for many years and is & pioneer of Seward Peninsula. He is familiar with educational problems of the northwesiern sections and deeply interested in the schools. or of Seward for many years, P. C. Mc- sponsors an | Mullen gained a familiarity with the workings of thz‘ public school system that will be of valus to |the Board. He was also the choice of the Third | Division delegation in the Legislature The Fourth Division was a unit in selecting Mrs. | Ladessa Nordale of Fairbanks to represent the inter- ior on the Board. She is a high rained and ex- { perienced educator, and was fo y a member of the Alaska College faculty. She was highly recom- mended by that institution’s President, Dr. Charles E.

On the score| of service alone he was entitled to reappvintment. The Governor's second appointment was Mrs. James Wickersham. Her long connection with the Juneau public school system, her active and continuing interest in educational matters, her recognizsd abil- ity and fine personality eminently equip her for the position. All of these appointments are of unusually high| caliber. The Governor has in thess instances set a high standard that augurs well for other appoint- ments that will come later in his term A. Shonb:ck, one one Beer Promotes Repeal. (New York Herald Tribune.) A national survey of conditions induced by the legalization ‘of beer shows in every representative section of the country an increase in temperance, in orderliness and at the same time in exuberance. All the dire prophecies of the drys, and, to be can- did, the fears of the wets have been refuted in the event. The return of beer has been signalized from coast to coast with a falling off of arrests for drunk- enness, with a substantial accretion of public revenue and yet with a spirit of popular relief and thanks- giving. Here is cause for a strong renewal of the faith that underlies the movement to rid the coun- try of sumptuary dictation. Restore to the people the dignity of a moral choice and they respond with a display of character to reassure the most skeptical. We confess to a very pleasant disappointment in the demonstration. Convinced of the paramount importance of repeal as the only solution of the problem posed by prohibition, we were afraid that the release of beer might produce a reaction unfavorable to the major operation. On the contrary, it has helped to prove the point that a'race used to per- sonal liberty knows better how to conduct itself when free than when subjected to a statutory strait- jacket. Far from raising arguments against repeal, the first week of legal beer has confirmed the con- tention, constitution and moral, that the Eighteenth | Amendment has no place in the organic law. Let us go on from this first step, then, as rapidly as possible toward the real goal. If the legal supply of beer has promoted order and happiness and busi- ness, as reported from every representative center,| the more reason to cancel the whole experiment of which this is merely a modification. Repeal will not simply curtail the illicit trade of the speakeasy; it will wipe it out. It will not only contribute its mite toward the income of the Treasury but erase its de- ficit. And the people can be intrusted with the responsibility it entails. And doubt of this must vield to the experience of the last ten days. Nowadays a bill goes through Congress so fast | that about all the members can do is wave as iv speeds by.—(Boston Herald.) President Roosevelt is entitled to the comfort- ing reflection that he has earned his March salary. —(Chicago News.) “More Power To It!" reads a headline in an exchange. And it doesn't seem to be about the new beer, either.—(Springficld, Ohio, Sun.) Broilers STRICTLY FRES EGGS Live or Dressed Fowl Telephone 268 Torgerson Bros.

Have you betrayed me to Raisul? And are you going to let him tor- ture me?” “Betrayed you to Raisul! No, Ma- jor Riccoli, not intentionally. Nor do T propose to hand you over to him. T am going to deal with you myself.” A look of cunning came into the eyes of Riceoli “The Kaid,” he said. “Raisul may have told him? Warned him?” “Possibly,” agreed Le Sage. “Al- most prebably, in fact. But Raisul takes his own line—and cross that of the Kaid. “And you have an with the Kaid.” “Tonight,” agreed Le Sage. “Now in fact.” Riceoli said nothing, but his face spoka volumes. ‘Oh, no,” laughed Le Sa in answer to Riccoli's unuttered thought. “He won't get me, Ric- coli—though I'm banking on ry belief that he thinks he will. Now I really must go.” Picking up Riccoli's pistol the table, Le Sage went to door. “Belleme!” he called Otho entered and saluted “Which of your three is staunchest, steadiest man? asked. “The man with the head as well as the coolest age.’ “Legionnaire Mummery. plied Otho. “Fetch him in.” “You see this officer,” said Le Sage to Mummery as Joe halted saluted and stood rigidly at at- tention before him. “He is not to leave this room—alive.

If appointment from the the he cour- open—shoot this officer instantly— and then defend yourself. Under- stand?” “Yes, sir.” Le Sage turned to Riccoli. “You'll find this man incorrupti- ble, Major Riccoli,” he said. “Also prompt in executing orders. So let's hope none of your friends or followers knock the door down in search of you. If all goes well with me, I shall see you again later. If not—I am afraid the door will be burst open by someone or other, eventually.” “Follow me, and move quietly ordered the Colonel, and led way back to the barrack-room “Attention,” ordered the senior sergeant, as Le Sage entered, fol- lowed by Major Langeac who had joined him at the door. “Absolutely all right.
