J. Webb, superintendent of the farm home, and hope they will securo a Idrhsing from the services they have rendered to others.'. "As 1 helped separate the toys and gifts and clothing 1 could not help but feel the individual touch of the differ ent pupils, a ad the thought came to me that I would like to be able to meet, everyone who had a hand in making up jho gift. "We arc hoping aud praying that another" year will bring more cottages so it will not be uecof-snry to turn so many children away. It is a fact that boys and girls are no wbeing sent to our training school who have com mitted no irirae other than that they must bo dependent upon others for their keep; and many are kept in homes that are nhnolutely unfit for the rearing of children."

"1 expect in some suitable way to bring you into the government and I know, you want me to work it out to the best advantage possible," the last paragraph of the communication said. It was addressed "My Dear For bes." The prosecution objected to its introduction in evidence and was sus tained by the court, but James S. Easby-Smith, counsel for Forbes in sisted that the text be transcribed, into the trial record, to which the court consented. The Harding letter to Forbes said: "My dear Forbes; "April 7, "There is going to be difficulty In naming you to a membership on the shipping board. Of course, you know whut this difficulty is. It is a thing neither you nor I can avoid. I do not ciue to write about it. I must, of course, be considerate of the senators from any state end in case of ignoriug their recommendation I cannot well choose a substitute appointment from their state. This doea not preclude n very desirable attachment of your services to the shipping if that is de sirable to you. It is a matter we can talk about later. Meanwhile I have another appointment which I thought might appeal to you very strongly and 1 want to submit it in this confidential way. There is a very strong conten tion between the conflicting elements .in Alaska over the governorship. 1 want to appoint a fine outstanding man who cau go up there nud bring about a restoration. I do not want biin to represent any interests nor go there with the thought of wrecking things. I have almost made dip my mind to npipiiut a governor from t tie Mates.

I do not know that I will mnke such a request in the fiual cud (lu-ion. Tho thing has been in my mind however, and I wanted an ex pression' from you before I go any ! further.
