Tn Prohibition Georgia

A man who oAme up recently from Atlanta was showing to some friends what looked like big cigar wrapped in tinfoil. He took it out of breast pocket, and it looked for all the world like one of those expensive smokers.
 "I got this down in Atlanta" he said.
 1t must have been a good cigar to bring it up all this way" remarked one of the group.
 "It isn't cigar" said the traveller.
 He peeled off the tinfoil and display ed cigar shaped bottle filled with whiskey.
 "You know Georgia's prohibition now" he sad.--The Sun.

NEW PORT OF ENTRY

The port of entry to be established at Cordova will prove a point of con- venience for boats that touch at Ma naimo on their way north after leaving Seattle. When boat enters foreign port after leaving the states, the next point at which she touches must be a port of entry where there is customs officer. Heretofore when boats stop
 ped at Nanaimo for coal, or for any other purpose, they haG to pass Cor dova and 20 to Valdez, and later re- turn to COrdova if they had cargo for that place. Several hours time were thus lost. With a port of entry at Cordova the boats that touch at any foreign port on their way can enter there and discharge their cargoes be- fore continuing northward to other ports. This arrangement may cause the boats to be little later in reach ing Valdez after leaving Seattle, but it will be advantageous to Cordova and may shorten the sailing time of boats between Seattle and other ports to the westward.

CATS MUST GO

A Chicago man, Rockwell Sayre, is a great lover of birds and consequently a bitter foe of the feline tribe. Mr. Sayre claims that cats have more dis eases than children, that they carry contagious diseases from house to house, suck baby's breath, scratch children's eyes out, put heaS into homes and hair into coffee and victuals. It is doubtful if anyone can enumerate enough good qualities of the cat to offset these objections. They do catch some mice and rats, but little spring wire tra will catch more mice than a dozen ordinary cats, and it has none of the objectional features urged against the cat.
 It is the robin, says Mir. Sayre, that

GALE IS ALL RIGHT
viction

The Fairbanks Times in a long edito- rial bitterly attacks Delegate Gale and accuses him of deceit, chicanery, insin- cerity, fraud and cowardice. The tone of the article is not that of candid criticisms; nor does the Times attempt to show wherein Delegate Gale has not worked for the interests of the people of the territory. The accusa- tions are vague and general, of which the following is a sample: "Many of those who supported him two years ago are, since they have learned his true character, heartily ashamed for having done so"
 The majority of the people in this part of the territory are of different opinion. They have followed the con- duct of their representative in congress with great deal of interest, and can say that since they have become better acquainted with his true character iAOh hlS oOi 'IS0 III SOhSl lCoo uuI III < the past two years they are ready to endorse him much more heartily for a second term than they dld for the first. MT. Gale has been persistent worker during the past winter in con- gress for the territory as whole. He has shown himself to be honest and fair. He has stood up with dignity and manhood for what he believes to be right. We hope to see Mir. Gale returned to congress from this terri
