winning side.
Such a desire may be a strong
factor in some local situations,
but it is difficult to visualize it,
on practical terms, as tuning the
tide for or against any rational
ticket
Conditions Prevent Forecast
In the campaign of 193G all
sorts of cross-currents are at
work. It would be a miracle if,
four months before the election,
anyone could assess accurtely
the relative strength of these
many factors.
Involved in President Roose
velt’s candidacy for reelection
there are certain fixed quantities.
He has a record, known to the
country, and he must stand on
that record. Still even about him
there remains the cloak of a con-;
tinuing speculation as to what
new policies, if any, he will pro
ject into the campaign.
In a large measure, Governor
Landon still has to make the ac
quantance of the American peo
ple. He is destined to be much
better known, and to make a far
more definite impression one way
or the other, before election day.
The strength of the right-wing
Democratic deflection led by A1
Smith and others still is to be
measured. The independent move
ment headed by the Lemke—
Coughlin coalition hasn’t yet per
fected its organization or project
ed its campaign plans.
And all of this, in the midst of
changing currents of depression
and recovery, and in a year when
many politicians believe that in
dependent voting may reach a
new high.

Golden Day Of
Klondike Told
By James Little
(Continued From Page One)
lice stood guard over the treas
ure.
I saw frontier justice, grim and
terrible, but righteous. Two
white men and a negro killed a
prospector, the Mounted Police
hit the trail, brought them back
to Dawson, and five days later
they had been tried, convicted,
and were swaying at the ends of
the hangman’s ropes, where they
were left for a time—as an ob
ject lesson to others of their kind.
“And so, these things of the
past crowd upon the memory.
Shall we not say—you and I, part
ner—that along with the chasten
ing sorrows o f life—mysteries,
which it is not given to us to un
derstand—have come to us both,
the generous rewards of service,
that into us the line has indeed
fallen in pleasant places. And at
last—whether it comes soon or
late—for you and for us, and for
all we love, may it be light at
eventide.”
Through the lean, hard hungry
d:ys of the north, the “pioneer
sourdough” stuck, come what
may. He was a power in his cho
sen field, a good citizen of great
worth to his country and an up
builder. Yes, an empire builder,
in the true sense of the word.
His life stands out as an exam
ple of what pure grit can accom
plish in a frontier country. Hav
ing won his fight, and conquered
the wild places, most of them
have passed over into that quiet
valley that is dimmed a little,
like a memory is dimmed by
time. Those who are left, a be
nevolent spirit carries on in the
same idealistic way. With us, the
rough of the pioneer days fades
into the past, soft, and swift, and
beautiful.
