THE GRANT MEMORIAL.
The Grant fi: li memorial introduced in the i.egis
inture Tuesday takts far higher ground than that
occupied by Delegate Sutherland in bin opposition
to itlic (lilt reserve rr< ated by the proclamation of
I'n Ident Harding. In legate Sutherland's attempt
to make it appear that there has been collusion be
• two. n the "Fish Trust" (always use capital letters)
i ud the Bureau of Fisheries and Department of Com
merce for the purpose of robbing the fishermen for
the benefit i.f "The Interi .is” (capital letters again)
hue been prtperly characlerizi d by Assistant Secretary
Hutton of the Drpai nni; of Commerce as. buncombe.
The attack on tit motive! c, the Department of Com
merce and Mr. Huston assumes responsibility for
the reserve: ip simply a political gesture. But there
is more in the Grant memorial. It contains a protest
Cgainot tlte rc.-etve sj: .ein of government, which it
characterizes u a system for substituting arbitrary
executive rules for si..lutes enacted under Constitu
tional autlMtriiy.
The memorial recites:
We have been taught to believe, and we
tlo believe, that till the law-making power of
the Federal Government has been by the
Com tltutlcn confided in Congress. * * *
li is astounding fir patriotic citizens of a
republic to contemplate thud whenever the
Chief Exteutivo i dissatisfied with the laws
enacted by the legislative branch of tile gov
ernment, or with the failure of that branch
to amend (hire laws in such manner as the
President may desire, lie may authorize Pome
office to substitute arbitrary rules of conduct
in place of Muttites enacted under Constitu
tional powers. A government of a reserve
, is c mt ially ti government by men instead
of by law and places the individual fortunes
at tin mercy cl official whim.
This declaration t trikes til every reserve in the
country exeept these reserved for the direct use Vif
Hie National Govt nmr nt. It applies to the forest,
oil, oral, bird and other reservations as well as the
fish n erves. Ii attacks directly the growing policy
ot substituting executive action for legislative enact
ment and, it t.old have h-on added, for self gov
ernment. Tin i t fere, it is (ssenitally an attack on
pt-licit ■ for which the late Presided Theodore Roose
velt wa more d'inctly n- ponsiblo than any one els"
He ami tlio Pinchotite conservationists did mart
then all others to en ibis method of procedure
Oil the country. Assistant Secretary Huston spoki
by the card wlien lie it d tlte name ol Roosevelt as
Lbe author of picredcnts for the •action of President
Harding in regard to Alaska fish.
The Etnpir agrees that the reservation syston
is, destructive cl local self government and wrong it
principle. it does not agree, however, that the tial
reserves in Ala. ka are objectionable a.-, arc many ol
tlte ether jo.ervru tiiat havt been created. They, ai
least, lietir executive explanation that they wen
created to met : an enu rgrncy that require.-, immed
late action and that it Is not Hie purpose to kcej
* hem in existence longer titan necessary to securt
legislation from Congress The Re welt reservatioi
system was put lortli as tin additional and i emu:non:
character of govtrument in the country.

(n the cc-hton growing States* than in all the others

NEW UOMPANY PURCHASING
NEWSPAPERS.
The Perrv-I.lovd Junes Company, consisting ol
John 11. !' rry, lorne rlv a Seattle lawyer, and Richard
Lloyd Jones, a well konwn tu w paper man. have pur
chased two more papers, giving them six dally news
papers. This Is now the third largest string of dally
newspapers in the country under one ownership
The Scrlpps-Howard string numbers nearly thirty
und 11 curst has more than a dozen. The latest addi
tions to the Perry-1.l.tyd Jones string are the Min
neapolis. Minn.. New; and the Reading. Pa., .News
Times. The (liter, in the list are the Tulsa, Olka.,
Tribune; the Pensacola, Fla.. Journal: the Charleston.
S. C., American, und the Jacksonville. Fla., Journal
Mr. Perry, the senior member of the company own
ing thi.' string cf ltwepapers was formerly Assistant
Porr-cutini Attorney in Seattle lie re igned that
office to become attorney for the Scripps-McRae (now
Scrlpps-Howard) interests there. Later he went to
New York where he bucunie principal owner and
manager of the Autocaster Service Company, a com
pany which, in addition to manufacturing and dis
tributing - autocaster, lias an advertising service
He also i President of the American Press Associa

ilgencer for William It. Hearst, and was the osiensiblt
head ot 111ut publication for several months.
TE.\< llixc; is POPULAR PROFESSION.
Teachiiu is still the popular occupation among
college women if one is to judge by the statlteic:
of Smith College. Its figures, just given out, con
cerning I . ' year’s graduating elute of 1922 shows
that of (lie t!'T members 137 are teachers, most o!
them in publi< schools; 73 are engaged in other
profession Ini’ are doing post-graduate work in
other -chcnls; 40 are just staying at. home; 26 are
married and 16 are traveling.
The 16 2 2 report on Panama Canal traffic i3 an
other tail of conditions improved over the preculing
year. The tolls collected in 1623 were 12 per cent,
grtater than tho.-e of 1921 and the cargo tonnage
pasting through the canal showed a gain of 28
per cent.
The funny \\ l iters and pertinent paragraphed to
the contrary notwithstanding, cupid is Kill doing
fairly efficient work, in the old U. F. A There were
1,000,000 marriages in the United States la:! year
and only 123.otto divorces.
Decline of Communism.
(Cincinnati Enquirer.)
There . i e indications that Com muni tin is running
the linul stages of its political course in the old
world. It is weakening, if it is not near to dis
integration. It lias lost much of the hold on ilie
agencies of government in many countries where It
was swept into power on the backwash of the war.
Wisdom on the part of the-Entente and unselfish co
operation soon can finish the career of this economic
pestilence.
In no country where it spreads its tentacles has
Communism done other than sap the life of the poo
I Pie, weaken tin* international standing of the Govern
ment. undermine the financial structure of the coun
try. dissipate capital, disorganize industry, prostitute
labor and debauch the public treasury.
In Rut ia, where it assumed its worst form, it lias
filled in every tilling except to retain control by armed
force. Indus!t;. ha been crippled, capital siolcn and
dissipated. Twenty millions of the population have
siarvcd to d-.ith and other millions have been slaugh
tered to make a Bolshevist holiday. In desperation,
now, the leaders are appealing for capitalistic help
from oilier countries, admitting the failure of their
theory, but falling to convince the wcrld of their
sincerity.
Italy has repudiated Communism, by a revolution
of force, il is true. but. nevertheless, effectively for
the time.
Switzerland defeated by seven to one a referendum
proposal to levy a confiscatory tux on capital instead
or the levy on property and profits, a development
of the anticapital dogma of Communism. England
did likewise.
Austria has put Communism aside and is engaged
in an earnest effort with the co-operation of outside
capital to stabilize her currency, rehabilitate her in
iduslrles and balance her budget.
I In Germany the Communistic politicians still bold j
! i a>, blip they have earned for their Government,
which cnee stood among the world Powers with un
impaired credit, the world's contempt for their grovel-!
'g conduct in the mutter of reparations. They are
despised and defied by the industrial leaders of Germany |
|11 'id are growing weaker each day.
Everywhere Communism has failed in the supreme
|te-t. It has had its trial. It has proven, itself a
1 theory with no faculty to grasp in a helpful way the
i pi act leal thing of lite. It has no place in the
| economic or governmental system. It surged up on a
wave of world-wide discontent and is abating as the
world gets nearer normal, which it assuredly i
although slowly.
The Man Who Signs Must Make (iood!
(Port Angeles News.)
A responsible man puts his name to a piece of
paper and it becomes a check—the equivalent of
money.
j He signs hin name on the back of another piece
j<T paper and it becomes an endorsed note good for
I money.
j l,e 'vritPS a letter and it becomes a binding
contract.
The adding of the name makes these things selen
end legal obligations.
The man who signs is responsible.
Just so with an advertisement the moment a tn:
ngns his name to it he bus made a pledge to t
public, lie is bound by IBs word as much as if
sigmil a check or a note, lie must do what he proi
i-id on the terms he promised.
Jl lie doer. not. he courts business disaster T
man who advertises a lie publicly proclaims himself
Imr Such men are seldom ifi business but frequent
in asylums. ! 1
li is safer to buy advertised .•'.■tides than no
enpt ones. It is safer 10 deal with merchants w
never!iso ilium wilh those who do not.
An advertiiament is a signed pledge of good lai
to tlic public.

(Sitka Tribune.)
I, Orders have been issued for the closing of the
; ouglas Cable Office. It is a real loss to any town
! ' lose the service and u still greater loss to lose the
personnel of the cable force. Signal Corps operators
tie always genuine Alaskans. They take an active
