Ou these quesl tlons he talked oftenest In both his speeches and to party leaders. The Prohibition question was Kiven an astonishing turn when W. Rruce of Maryland publish ed the quickly denied story that Herbert Hoover does not refuse a drink. Even Democratic Chair man John J. Itaskob joined in tile denial, declaring that the nominee did not serve liquor in his home. A renewed outburst over the religious issue centered about Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, al though she denied that -Ohib’ speeches to preaohers were only to spur them to oppose Gov. Smith because of Prohibition views. Her disclaimer did not quiet the con troversy in her own party. Re publican National Committeeman Walter Newton, described her ac tivities as “well intended but mis guided." The Wisconsin member of the committee asked that she be kept at home. Following his earlier policy, A' Hoover lias remained silent. The 'Continued on Paee Two.) STATE ISSUES AREDISCUSSED BY COV.

If its hardware “WE HAVE IT” move.OAVetVvsvw %aw\ve THIS animal, the trading rat, is found gener ally throughout the southern and western part of the United States. He is large-eyed, big-eared, but not vicious nor mean looking as many others of the North American rat family. Only at night, do these little pests do their nest build ing and trading; for the tricks they then play on man, they are remarkable. One story is told of a trade rat taking off to his nest a pearl necklace, and leaving in the jewel box instead, some fifty grains of corn. Such high commission practices have earned him a bad reputation. Your local merchant values his reputation far above any commission in making a sale. To stay in business, his operations are conducted in the broad daylight of truthful advertising. Through this newspaper, he affords you continuously an economical plan for buying honest merchandise, so that you can plan your shopping and have confidence in its results. Contrast this with retail merchandising that depends on the unwelcome solicitation or the chance call at your door; the gum-shoeing peddler or the irresponsible mail order office that instinctively does not wish to be “found out.” Local retail interests place their story, courteous and straight-forward, where all may read it—in this newspaper, in show windows and on the counters, for your convenience. The fly-by-night solicitor for your patronage finds advertising so much poison. You can easily tell the two apart. JUNEAU BUSINESS HOUSES in co-operation with THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE

Near ;ly 30 men make up the personnel of the party. Us vessels con 'sisted of the schooner Bowdoin, the fishing schooner Radio and I the motorboat Seeko.

SMITH'S LIQUOR SPEECH MAKES BIG HIT Democratic Nominee’s At tack on Prohibition Re ceived Enthusiastically (Continue., from rase One loon, "dlspised of right by the American people." He stirred a rousing round of eheers when he promised, if el ected, to enforce the law, and was greeted with .mother no.sy tumult when he declared that as President he would regard it as his duty to recommend to Con gress both the modification of the Volstead Act and the Pro hibition amendment. Laughter and applause, greeted the nominee as he remarked that in 1919 and 1920 millions of Americans believed that hard liquor could be banished from the country "hy an amendment to the Constitution and passing laws.” I Not a Question of Liquor er No Liquor The Governor added, "this is not u question of liquor or no liquor, Prohibition or anti-Pro hlbition. The question before the American people today is, 'what is the best thins to do about it in the interest, of the country.’ No Enforcement Gov. Smith wound up his lirat stumping tour here by assailing the Republicans for the way thoy had been enforcing Prohibition, declaring that they had permit ted patronage considerations to j guide them, and corruption crept into the law enforcement. Me insisted also that millions of Americans are not agreed with Mr. Hoover in his declaration that Prohibition U a noble ex pel iment. and asserted that Pro hibition itself meant nothing to the Republican Party. Light Liquor Best Remedy "I am perfectly satisfied that a sane, reasonable und scientific definition of Intoxicating liquor in the Volstead Act would do )nore than any other one thing to take out of this country the hard liquor that can be found In every village, hamlet, town and city in the United States," shout ed Gov. Smith to the cheers of ills auditors. liantfiand Likes Prohibition pales of laughter were provok ed when the nominee observed that “ganglabd file knotty J#t(|p ofi the earth, entirely satisfied wiih Prohibition, in love with the Volstead Act, because their presence upon the statute books has opened the gateway of oppor tunity.” Boo Mrs. Willebrandt At one juncture flov. Smith mentioned Mrs, Willebrandt by name, and booing oould btf heard throughout the hall that was jammed beyond its seating capacr Ity of 8,000. His first mention of the Volstead. Act also brought booing, nnd there were groans when he related that u waiter In the Senate restaurant In Washington lost his job "because of carelessness" aftpr dropping a bottle of liquor on the door Rosy cheeks «aed to he a sign of good health; now they simply mean ine cash register at the lidrug store has been ringing up leome more profitable sales.

The Ketchikan Chronicle says Mr. Hoover will defeat Gov. Smith by more than 10.000,000 ma jority. Why the majority was limited to this modest figure was not explained. Well, perhaps the Chronicle knows. The Em pire does not. It has not discovered a way to determine how the American people expect to vote next November. Particularly, It does not know how those millions who have not yet reached a conclusion themselves will finally de cide to vote. However, it has been said that misery loves company, and there are other observers, as well as The Empire, that do not know who will be elected. We have before us the last issue of Plain Talk magazine. It is published by two Re publicans and, while the editor, George Daniel Eaton, says he does not vote, he is listed in Who’s Who in America as a Republican and a Methodist. In an editorial by Mr. Eaton, Plain Talk says: The general sentiment is: “Hoover will be elected, but Smith will give him a real fight." Plain Talk is unprepared to predict, but. straws are bending in breezes that are stronger than zephyrs. In the July number we mentioned the fact that one-quarter of those who voted for Smith in the Philadelphia primaries were Republicans, while less than a hundredth of those who voted for Hoover were Democrats which would seem to indicate that Smith was losing few Protestant Democrats or Democrat drys and gaining a great many Repub lican wets or, perhaps. Republican Catholics. Either way, he is gaining votes and losing practically none. Now, in the straw vote which the Hearst newspapers have made. Smith led Hoover two-to-one in thirty-nine cities and their suburbs. In Michigan, which is a rock-ribbed Republican State, Smith led by almost three to one. Straw votes indicate generally very little, but we must take into consideration that Hearst is not for Smith. The two men are inveterate enemies. Hut the important thing Is that, in taking the straw vote, the Hearst pa pers asked each voter how he had bal loted in the 1924 elections, and these same persons who had previously voted three and four to one for Coolidge over Davis are now voting two and three to one for Smith. Another interesting fact in this straw vote is that about a quar ter of the "voters" did not vote at all when Coolidge was running against Davis. Plainly. Smith is a vote-getter. He not only wins votes from his rivals but he makes people vote who are usually little interested in politics, and he makes them vote for him. These facts, we believe, are signifi cant. Significant, too, is the fact that Smith, In the. straw vote in California, Hoover's own State, led the Secretary of Commerce two to one. Not, as we have indicated, that we place a great deal of stress on a straw vote. We hardly think that Smith will carry California. We do not believe that he will carry even a few of the prairie States, where the farmers are supposed to be disgruntled. But, in spite of this and in spite of the possibility of his losing Kentucky, Tennessee, Oklahoma and even North Carolina, we think he still has an xeelleut chance to win. In fact, if Smith could win with the Northern States and some of the South ern States would turn Republican, we believe it would be a thing of great advantage to the country. It would break up the solid South without de stroying the Democratic Party and thus putting us at the mercy of one party which has already shown strong lean ings toward autocracy. We regret that religious bigotry will change Southern votes, but at least the political bigotry in the South will be broken up, and one less bigotry below thP Mason and Dixon line will not hurt things. After all, will Smith win? We do not know. But we say with many others that he will put up a tremend ously stiff fight. He will put it up to some extent on Ills personality and achievements, but will put it up to a far larger extent on the Prohibition question. Many of the people In the big cities are tired, irritated and even angry at being dominated by the Anti-Saloon Deagtie'B bloc of fanatics and the balance of power that they represent; they are tired and irritated and angry at having the country’s thirst dictated by the rot ten-borough system and gerrymandering. They believe that they have a right to drink; they have been drinking but they are tired and angry and irritated at the prices they pay. They want conviviality and they are tired and angry and irri tated at having to buy hard and often dangerous liquor when they would like their mellow beers and wines. The business men are tor Hoover, but they do not represent a balance of j power because they are generally Re- t publican. And against them is Smith’s j masterly stroke in choosing Raskob for his campaign leader. The editor won- ders how two pro-Hoover automobile men he heard in the Pullman smoker will vote now. Smith has a great busi ness man speaking for him. Will that put a crimp in “Hoover and prosper ity?” We do not know, but we have increased respect for Smith as a poli tician. It The average man, however, respects Smith because Smith has not pussy footed. He accepted the Democratic nomination after a convention had writ- J ten in a firm, dry plank with the flat statement that he believed in modiflea- tion of Prohibition. Here, the average 4 man thinks, is a candidate who is his own man. Hoover on the contrary has dodged issues and has submitted to pressure. Our own opinion is that Hoover made a very had move in responding, as he f did, to Senator Borah's imbecilic ques tionnaire. He simply put ammunition in Smith's locker. Smith was known as a wet. If Hoover had admitted wet ness, the drys would have voted for j either man and so the wets would have. They would have had no choice. Hoov er simply gave Smith votes. At every political jumping-off place l Smith has outwitted Hoover. A few more masterly srokes like Raskob, a few more stunts of capturing the ad miration of the American people, like the acceptance telegram, and Mr. Hoov- er may find himself in the lurch. Smith also took fifty-two cards from the Re publican deck in announcing that he would not disturb the tariff. Yes, Smith has a good cnanre. All this sounds anti-Hocver. It is not. The Republican Party could not have put up a better man, and we are no bigots about parties. The two pub lishers of Plain Talk are Republicans. The editor does not vote. Hoover, we think, is a better man j than Coolidge, a much better man than Harding. He is a hard and indefatig able and conscientious worker. No more honest man has ever been President, with j the possible exception of Grover Cleve land who was, even so, probably not half the man for the job that Hoover 1 is. Hoover Is not only indefatigable and conscientious; he is efficient. f Then we must remember, above all, j that the Republicans have the upper hand. Not only are ymy in power but they are, the personalities and quali ties of the two Presidential candidates aside, the more powerful party—and by quite a margin. The Republicans are politically wiser. Against the whole organization contends the shrewd mind of an enormously sucessful politician— Alfred Emanuel Smith. Who will win? There are no proph ets in Plain Talk and the outcome, so far as we can see it, is as clearly limned us the bottom of a barrel of ink. OTTO KAHN FOR HOOVER. Otto II. Kahn, the New York banker, who praised unstintedly Gov. Smith's speech of accept ance and was counted as a supporter of the Democratic nominee, has announced that he will support Mr. Hoover. He said that he preferred Gov. Smith’s position on Prohibition to that of Mr. Hoover; ho declared that a continuation of the present intolerable Prohibition law was unthinkable, but, he said, if elected Mr. Hoover would also be found to be liberal. He also highly praised Gov. Smith us an able, energetic, effi cient and thoroughly honest and courageous execu tive. but he thought the Republican Party was better organized to promote prosperity than the Democratic Party. Therefore, he preferred to take chances with Mr. Hoover and the Republican Party than with Gov. Smith and the Democrats. Old Santa Claus ought to make a realistic appearance this year in those States where they have Yule Tide snow. He is assembling down there Alaska reindeer so that Dancer and Prancer, Cupid and Comet and Dunder and Blitzen might become actually visible as they dance and prance over hill and down dale with their sleigh loads of treasures. The politicians must be pretty busy this week if they expect to hold the spotlight. There are ulmost as many baseball fans in the United Stales as there are politicians even in a Presi dential campaign year where the candidates are as colorful as Smith and Hoover. Go to California, Girls! (Wall Street Journal.) California country girls lead the Nation in finding husbands is the conclusion drawn front Federal statistics tiled with the State health officials which show that only 20.4 per cent, of the girls in rural districts are single. As com pared with this, 25.5 per cent, of the girls in California cities and 29 per cent, of the girls in urban districts in the United States in gen eral are unmarried. California men apparently are not as good drawing matrimonial cards as the girls for the statistics show that 33.C per cent, of the males over the age of 15 in urban districts have never been married, while 41.5 per cent, of those in the country have never marched to the altar. An Unholy Alliance. (Chicago Tribune. Hep, I There is a lack of candor in not recognizing the corruption under the Harding Administra tion. The disclosures of the last four years, coming to full light after the Cleveland conven tion. have made it clamorous. The platform re plied in a quickly choked whisper. The promise to regulate the expenditures of the coming elec tion to avoid improper use of money would carry more weight if an alliance had not been made with the Anti-Saloon League, which collects huge sums from vicious people as well as from moralists and spends them without any public accounting. Nothing shows more clearly that we are a Nation of humorists than the result of the aver age primary.— (Ohio State Journal.)

More Or Less True A woman always looks funny when fhe is running for a car, but she looks even funnier when she is running after a man. A lot of couples know how to act when they are out in company who don't know hoj- to act when they are around home. If there is a pretty daughter in the house and the telephone rings it moans the other party on the line won’t get a chance to use the phone for a couple of hours. It makes a wife as indignant to have her husband demand she be logical as it does him to have her demand he be as perfect as she thinks the husband of the lady next-door is. The reason many a widower has sworn he would never marry again is because he doesn't know some widow has decided she will. Tho more important a husband acts the safer it is to bet his wife would enjoy living on his life In surance money. A woman hates another woman who thinks she has a prettier hat and one who thinks she has a more trying husband. It is getting so if little girls now want to play they are grown ups about all they can do is steal their mothers' cigarettes and smoke them. No ^woman can be happy in a house that is so built there is no chance to change the furniture around every week or two. if a man didn’t get a cold in the head occasionally his nose never would get any attention, but a woman has to die for hers to get a vacation from the powder puff. Among other things a woman hears that are not true that cause her husband a lot of trouble are burglars in the middle of the night.

BOSTON, Oct. 1. St. Louis won the hottest National League pennant fight in 20 years when the Cubs defeated the Giants 6 to 2 last Saturday afternoon, about an hour before the Car- dlnals made assurance doubly sure by difeating the Braves 2 to 1. The Cardinals bunched hits off Delaney in the lirst inning for all their runs. Sherdel pitched for the Cardinals. BRIEF OBSEQUIES NEW YORK, Oct. 1. The obsequies over the Giants last Saturday afternoon were brief and simple. The Cubs romped through a drizzle to defeat the New Yorkers 6 to 2 and the men of McGraw were out of the race for good. Blake held the Giants so well in check that the game seemed 'ltardly close, giving six hits while Chicago took 9.

SEASON'S RECORD DETROIT, Oct. 1. Saturday afternoon the Yankees celebrated the American League pennant conquest with a little low com-j edy which saw the Tigers scamp- j cr away with the decision 19 to' 10 or three touchdowns to one and a field goal. The Tigers piled up 28 hits for the season’s] major league record while the Yankees got 17 hits. Gehrig, Muesel, Van Gilder and Gehring er hit home runs.

GRIGSBY MAKES FINE PROGRESS IN VOTE DRIVE Week-End Despatches Say Democratic Candidate Is Making Headway (Cont!2”*o irois race One.) was interrupted by frequent ap plause. “He vigorously declared himself in favor of repealing the Alaska Bone Dry Law, terming it unneces sary and unwarranted legislation, needing immediate correction. i “He assailed his opponent for his failure in a recent speech here i to identify himself with Herbert i C. Hoover, head of the Republican National ticket, and said the quar rsl between Sutherland and Hoo ver was too deep-seated to be mended. He read from a record of the Congressional Committee on Fisheries’ heating in 1924 when Sutherland called Hoover a 'graft er and fixer’ and a thief by Impli cation. "He called attention to the fact, i that the Delegate who is now op posing Federal bureaus, as a mem j her of "the Territorial Legislature consistently voted in favor of acts Jlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll increasing the power of Federal officer. For Legislature Alone '‘Sutherland's campaigning ex clusively on the Controller Bill, drew Grigsby's criticism, on the score it was a matter purely with ing the province of the Legislature and on which it was qualified to act without any advice from the Delegate. This bill, he pointed out, does not cover the principle of Home Rule as viewed by the Democrats. He made it plain that he did not deem the measure an issue in the Delegate campaign. "The spoaKer endorsed h i s party’s national candidates end said Gov. Smith is friendly to Alaska because of the support giv en him In the last two national conventions by delegates from the Territory. Grigsby said the Dem ocratic national platform promises the Territory the right to legislate on subjects of local concern, in cluding both fisheries and game, which is real Home Rule.” Confirms Earlier Reports The statements In these two dis patches, above quoted, regarding the measure of support that Mr. Grigsby is receiving, confirm simi lar reports that had been received here earlier last month from vari ous reliable sources. A prominent attorney from another Alaskan town, who was In Fairbanks when Orlgsbj visited there about the middle of September, while here recently said he was making many votes there and predicted he would carry that town. This sentiment was also voiced here last week by passengers en rnute south from interior and west, ern points .at which Mr. Grigsby had stopped briefly on his way to open his northerly and interior I vote drives. Generally it was agreed that his campaign is a real •effort and that if has many indi. I cations of being successful. iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii iiiiimiiimiiiiiiiiii JOHNSON AND YOUNG GORDON INGMAN ARE PRIZE TROUT TAKERS j Two prizes offered by the Ju neau-Young Hardware Company for the largest and second largest trout caught during the season were awarded last week. Joe Johnson, of the Thomas Hard ware Company, was winner of the $16.50 split bamboo fly rod, and Gordon logman, 13-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Gunnar log man, captured the second prize, a $7.50 wicker creel, leather re inforced. I Johnson's fish was taken at Turner Lake. It was a 25-inch specimen of the cutthroat var# iety. Young logman, who is just as an enthusiastic fisherman as his daddy, and more successful last season, landed a l!l *4-inch cutthroat at Auk Lake. Mr. Ing niun lost to Ills sen by one quarter of an inch, landing a 19-inch beauty which wasn't quite enough to put him in the winning class of which his boy was a member.

McElroy died a few minutes 'after being shocked by light wires connected by a reostat to two 'sets of bed springs through which j lie crawled as part of the tradi tional fraternity ritual for noo phites. Two physicians who examined the body declined to say wheth-j er fright of electricity itself was the cause of death. Tlic strength of the electrical charges which entered the body, has net been determined. No arrests have been made. The fraternity issued a state ment saying that the youth faint ed during the stunt through which, it is asserted, five other •students proceeded him and to I which 184 other students have been subjected during the local chapter's history. The opinion is expressed that .McElroy touched an exposed live wire leading to the springs. He is ulso said to have been fed raw oysters saturated with castor oil as another part of the initiation.

Galley, for the past two years pastor of the Methodist j church In Juneau, last night de livered his farewell sermon. He has been transferred to the stages and will leave tomorrow with his wife aboard the Princess Louise. There was a large attendance at the church last night and Rov. Oailey said in part: “This is the 207th time I have found an audi ence in Juneau to preach the gos pel and now I ant to bid you fare well. It seems to me fitting that W I should review briefly what I havo tried to accomplish. "1 will first mention the NOTR. “I have not tried to entertain r people. I cannot compete with professional entertainers and it would be a farce to attempt to do so. I have not made a specialty of any pet doctrines or peculiar notions which I may have. The guspdt of Christ furnishes an abundance of subject matter. 1 have not tried to build a member, splp around myself. The work of men who do so invariably collapses rai»d It is no credit to a minister when his work will not endure af tef he leaves. I havo not em phasized donomlnatlonalism. I pro foundly believe in the necessity of a; strbng church organization and pjreach that no one can live as good a Christian life outside as .Inside the church; but 1 deplore the great number of organizations. There has been, during the last three hundred and fifty years,! five great revival movements which persist today. Each has its I particular genius. There aj£ sub divisions of each of these. Having in some measure the same genius, will,di ought not to exist. 1 see no reason why anyone cannot live as good a Christian life in one as in another, but each like a fish erman’s fly hooks attracts it:, type. Essential Truth "1 have emphasized certain es sential truths upon which all evangelical denominations agree. I believe in an omnipotent, om ntcient God who loves us and is interested in all our affairs, and who is a prayer hearing God. I believe in the Bible as having been inspired that we may re ceive Instruction in spiritual mat ters, that we may know God's manner of dealing with people and thrue it God would, reveal himself.

JACK MITCHELL HELD HERE AS SINCLAIR AID Marshal White Says He Is Man Who Sawed Hole in Local Federal Jail Interest in the celebrated Charles Sinclair case was revived today with the announcement by V. S. Marshal Albert White of the ar rest of Jack Mitchell on a charge of aiding and abetting. Sinclair's escape from the local Federal jail on or about April 23, last. The warrant was issued on a com plaint signed by Deputy Marshal W. E. Feero. Mitchell is alleged to have saw. ed a hole In the Jail through which the escape was made. It was !t by 17 inches in the inner side and 7 by 13 inches in the outer bars. He was recently brought here to complete a jail sentence imposed at Skagway. Has Criminal Kecorci Mitchell, a former soldier anil stationed at Chllkoot Barracks at one time, is said to have served two terms In a Federal jail. 1 he offense with which he Is now charged carries with it a maxi mum penalty of ten years in the penitentiary. Other prisoners incarcerated in the local jail are said by Marshal White to have been implicated In the delivery at least to the extent of making an usual amount ot noise while the hole was being sawed in the walls and bars of the tank and while Sinclair made Ills get-away. History of Case In November. 1927, Sinclair was arrested charged with bootlegging, after two Federal Prohibition agents had fired three shots into a car in which ho and two oth-rs were riding down a blind street. One of the bullets passed through the coat (if one of the men in the car. The unto was taken by the officers and later on the same day was taken away from before the residence of one of the officers who testified he saw Sinclair take th" machine. Jack Diaz, the man who narrow ly escaped being shot, was one of the witnesses for the defense and later was charged with perjury as the result of testimony given by Marshal White and Mrs. White to the effect that they had listened in at a dictograph to Diaz in con versation with Prohibition agents in which he told them what lie was going to testify and that it was “framed” for the occasion. Diaz was declared to have been at the time in the employ of the Pro hibition office and was being used as a “stool” to entrap Sinclair. II was sentenced today to one year in jail for perjury. Convicted ;r,d -escapes Sinclair was convicted on De cember 14, 1927, and was sentenced to two years imprisonment in the local Federal jail and to pay a fine of $1,500. He served about four and one-half months of the term, becoming a model prisoner, according to Marshal White. He was permitted to see a number of visitors and transact business for the disposal of certain property interests. On April 23, this year, when his attorney called to see him, the prisoner could not be found, and a checkup disclosed the escape and the holes in the jail. Sinclair In his hurried depar ture. left behind him a good pho tograph of himself. Copies were made of it and scattered broad cast all over the country and even to Great Rritaln. Search Is Pressed Rumors from time to time came to officers of Sinclair's presence in various places and posses weje sent out several times on unsuc cessful searches. The first definite word of the fugitive came from Port Althorp. Investigation showed that a man corresponding to his general de scription had been there on a small boat and bought some sup plies. No further trace was un covered in that direction. In the early part of August, an individual whose name was not revealed by Marshal White and who refused to take any part of the reward money offered, gave the Marshal Sinclair's post office address at Prince Rupert. He was arrested there on August 14. Held for Extradition Efforts to have him departed fniled, but Ottawa authorities or dered him released and given 90 days to leave Canada. Ho*ever, representations made by local Federal authorities, resulted in his detention by Prince Rupert po lice pending the outcome of ex tradition proceedings based on two warrants, one charging him with escape from a Federal jail and the other alleging perjury. The matter of extradition is now the subject of diplomatic negotia tions between the United States’ Department of State and the Ot tawa Government. The American Government has 10 days In which to present its case for Sinclair’s return. White Issues Statement Coincident with Mitchell's re turn hore to be tried on the charge of aiding Sinclair escape. Marshal White issued a statement review ing his work on the case. "I gave much time and thought to working out this case, trying to apprehend Sinclair .and fix the responsibility on those who aided in his escape,” he declared. ‘‘Mv 10 yea'rs’ experience In the De partment of Justice, including work in large cities such as New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Denver and Seattle, equipped me with knowledge valuable In solving the case. "Graduating tinder th- direction of William .1. Hums, and attending Government schools ut Chicago and New York, I have found that the criminal can be caught in Alaska as elsewhere. Sinclair and his companion had three months' start on the officers, but modern methods and a certain amount of study of the moves of criminals when they become fugitives make them marked me and lead to their eventual detection. That is what happened to Sinclair.” Only One Escape Referring to his success in handling prisoners since taking of fice, the Marshal said: "1 feel a pride in the fact that in 28 months, when handling about 100 prisoners daily in the jails of the First Di vision, there has been only one escape. This was Sinclair, and lie was recaptured after three months of liberty. 1 think this record is clear enough to speak for itself. Twenty-eight months witli 100 prisoners per day and all of them accounted for!” FOREST SERVICE GETS $8,976 OF TRAIL FUNDS The sum of $X,!t7ti.7b has been allotted by the Federal treasury to the Alaska district, U. S. F irost Service for trail construction, it was announced today by Assistant District Forester M. lj. Merritt.

Und r the present law, 10 per cent of these receipts go to the local Forest Service for trail work. An additional 25 per cent is set aside for Alaska schools and roads and trails, and Is remitted j by the Federal treasury to the Ter ritorial treasury.

Gastineau Grocery Stephenson A mats Courts' Last Word In Murder Appefd In prison, D. C. Stephenson (inset), former Grand Dragon of the Indiana Ku -Klux Klan, awaits final word of the courts in his appeal from conviction for murder of Miss Madge Oberholtzer, in 1925. The girl swallowed poison and in a dying statement declared Stephenson took her to his mansion (above) and later attacked her on a train. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Oct. 1.— -On the action of the Indiana .su preme court, which has announced it soon will give a decision in I). Stephenson’s appeal from a murder verdict, rests the fate of the former Ku Klux Klan leader and notorious figure in the In diana political upheaval of the last three years. The former grand dragon of the klan In Indiana is serving a life sentence for the murder of Miss Madge Oberholtzer. Virtually unknown in 1923, Ste phenson bechme Interested In the klan and within two years he had risen to the top of that organiza tion In Indiana, had amassed a for tune of $1,000,000 and was an ad mitted political power in the state. He was reputed to have the power to make or break those aspiring to political office, and he was said to have played the role of dictator over the Indiana legislature of 1925. Then came his sudden fall. Shortly after i disagreement with Hiram W. tivans, imperial wizard of the klan, and attempts to form a separate organization to further Stephen's political power, I FOR YOUR COUGH AND COLD WE RECOMMEND White Pine and Tar Cough Syrup, Pine Tar and Honey Cough Syrup, Antigrip Tablets, Bromo Quinine.

In a dying statement, the girl declared Stephenson had induced [her to go to his mansion at Irv ington, a suburb, and later forced her to accompany him on a train to Hammond. She asserted she was attacked while on the .train The following day (March 17 1925) Miss Oberholtzer obtained 1 poison and swallowed it. Accord ing to her statement, she was tak en hack to Indianapolis in an au tomobile and secreted in Stephen son’s garage for two days, and afterward removed to her home.

Stephenson was indicted by the Marion county grand jury and after a lengthy trial, was sentenced in the state prison. The prosecution based its case on the contention that an infec tion in lacerations on the body of Miss Oberholtzer, alleged to1 have been inflicted by* Stephen son, contributed to her death. 1 For a few months after his con viction little was heard of Ste phenson. Then, suddenly, the front pages of newspapers through out the country carried stories of letters, written by Stephenson and smuggled from prison, in which he said he could expose a “mass of corruption" in Indiana politics. Finally the Marion county grand jury took cognizance of the charg es and in time indictments were returned against John L. Duvall, mayor of Indianapolis, and other officials. During all this time, Stephenson, through his attorneys, was making use of every legal device to ob tain freedom. Writs and petitions wore filed every few weeks. The main prop of his legal structure, however, was an appeal from the conviction for murder.
