VENERABLE STATESMAN HAS
PASSED FROM SCENE
There is something pleasing in tin
thought that even so surging a nation
as the United States, passing through
one of the hectic periods of its exis
tence, finds time to pause in tribute
as one of its illustrious men whose cup
of life has been filled to overflowing,
disappears from the stage after half a
century of service to his country. Tin

Cannon, who has retired from Con
gress to his own volition, in the light
wherein he was made to appear ten
years ago during the ‘‘insurgency’1
which wrested from the speaker of the
house the powers which gave him the
title of "czar.” Rather it looks upon
the venerable statesman as one who
—though posisbly not adverse to
wielding all the power that came to
him—believed in a more highly cen
tralized system of directing govern
ment than exists at Washington today^
but withal as a man ever jealous of
his country's honor, and a believer in
its destiny. And sometimes, viewing
the sort of system or lack of system,
that succeeded ‘‘Cannonism,' one won
ders whether that which gave Uncle
Joe the title of czar did not possess
distinct advantages as well as disad
vantages. But regardless of what his
tory says of that or what the interpre
tation of scientific government may
be, none will deny that Uncle Joe
played a prominent part in a stirring
period of the great national drama and
that he deserves to be remembered
not only as one of its outstanding
speakers but also as one of the mosi
notable men the house of representa
tivp« has nroduced.
SUGAR PRICES RISE WITH SUR
PLUS IN SIGHT
It is doubted whether the proposed
in vestigation by the United States
senate of ‘‘profiteering” in sugar will
get any further than most investiga
tions of the kind, but that some sort
of action is desirable is evident on the
face of statistics showing that there
is not a shortage of sugar but an ac
tual surplus. The Sugar barons of Cu
ba in particular, who always take ad
vantage of an opportunity to lilt pric
es are trying to make Americans pay
for the temporary' deficits which they
sustained when they passed through
a period of deflation—and probably
some others along the line between
them and the consumers are taking
an extra profit also. In any event, on
the basis of Secretary Hoover’s re
port that a probable surplus of more

HOLDINGS OF OLD TIMER
SOLD BY ADMINISTRATOR
When John Lutschinger of Nome
died recently with the flu his holdings
were considered the most extensive ot
any one man in the Nome mining dis
trict. Many of the claims lie in thj
richest pay belt of Nome and are con
sidered valuable mining property.
The administrator of the estate sold
these claims recently to the highest
bidder, pursuant to a Probate Court
order dated October 12, 1920.
The claims involved in the sale are

of them while in a few he merely held

stage of being patented.
Attorney James Frawley offered
$120,000 for the properties and that
