1 There appeared in the Valdez News of April 29th ST article un- der the heading of Two Dead" | He undertakes to describe the evil effects of the abolishment oi the canteen Oiquor shop) in the U. s. Army, with an attempt to cast an evil reflection upon the U. :. Legislature. and its constituents. Perhaps the gentleman does not know vret the said legislative act Is highly appreciated by nearly all the best and noblest citizens of the nation, and by all who stand for a clean and higher citizenship, as highly commendable.
 When they returned to the Post they took what booze they could with them, but when this was gone they were still unsatisfied with their spree" That terrible hankering and burning ai,er-thirst was but the result of the alcoholic liquors previously obtained. Had not those liquors been obtainable here or anywhere else in Alaska, these young men would have returned to the Post in a normal condition, sat- isfied with a glass of lemonade or good cold water.
 Being unable to obtain whiskey they looked around for the next best thing" 1 agree with the gentleman that hay rum is the next best thing (and perhaps the best thing) to bring about the re- suit obtained (death). It appears to me as a rational conclusion that if in their looking around, as he says. they had obtained more whis- key, the final result would have been tire same. though perhaps more remote.
 .The average soldier, if he drinks at all, drinks more than he wants wlfen he gets where he osh imbibe without restraint" Logic forever. And yet he would favor the re-estab- lishment of the army canteen where they can imbibe without re- straint. It would require some strings to tie the gentleinan's con dieting iueas oi his notable theory together.
 Where can be found an intelli- gent citizen who really and honest Y believes that any considerable restraint existed in the army can teen, especially on the frontier. If time and space would permit many instances to the contrary could be cited.
 .'If the soldiers could obtain liquor at the post when they want it there would be much less drunk enness." A remarkable remedy for drunkenness. Pity that such val- uable knowledge is not more wide- ly understooa.
 And lastly he says: ''It is peculiarity of the human race that what we are denied We desire most" Oh what a light that sheds on our benighted mindk as to the cause of the increasing crime throughout the the nation; manslaughter, the murder of wife and children, larceny. and numerousother crimes we are denied the right to do. There sss'nd that naughty re- straint the law. The law of nations and the great moral code say "Thou shalt not" Too bad isn't it to take away our personal liberty by re- s,raining r from getting drunk and doing these things when We feel like it. Why not petition con- gress to take down the bars; repeal the la%s and thus remove all re- straint, that desire to do these things may be lessened and the officers relieved of all trouble.- Is. G.M.

At that time, the state s attorney, J
B. Wlneman, appearing for the dra in
age board, objected to the jurisdiction
of 1he board, or the ground that it was
an attempt to prevent a Legislative act
by municipal corporation; that the
summons, complaint and affidavits die
not show facts sufficient to constitute
cause of action or to warrant the grant

SIOUX FALLS, S. D.--DeDositions have been

instituted by Michael Ernster of Logan
township. in Minnehaha county, against Nels p.
resident of Marshall county. South Dakota.
The suit will be tried by the state circuit
court in Marshall county next January. Ernster
seeks to recover the valnc of an alleged short
age in the acreage of farm in Logan town
ship which he purchased FIVE or six years ago
for $3,G 800. =. ~ .,.. =.
The deed described the tract as containing
152 acres according to the government survey,
and, figuring on the bases of 152 acres. sErnster
paid $22.5O per acre for the farm. He says he
afterward discovered that the farm did not
contain as many acres as was believed, and
this was confirmed by County Surveyor Howe
who after lesulveying it found that it con.
tained only 1GS acres. Ernster sues Christensen
for reimbursement for his alleged loss. 80 -

decided largely on the question whether the

TAWNEY PROTESTS
Congressman Objects to Plan of Num-

WIN0NA, MINN.-Congressman James A.
Tawney has written a letter to the postmaster
general at Washington making a strong protest
boxes, in which he voices sentiment that seems
general in the first district. He gives reasons
why he considers such change would not be
beneficial and in CONCLUSION says: -.
II know that we are living in the days Of
progress and prosperity and that the new is
| supplanting the old every day, but to undertake
to identify the individual citizen of the United
States by giving him number is not in the
line Of progress; it is rather returning to the
erals who, not being able to identify, their sol
diers in any other wey, adopted the method
which 1t is now Iropsed to put in force for the
purpose Of designating American citizens.
