dered the appeal from Justice Wright's
ruling to secure a decision on the con-
stitutionality Of the anti-bucket shop

he Government contends that Jus
tice Wright was in error In sustaining
demurrers of the brokers to the indict-
ments on the ground that the anti
bucket shop law Is so general as to
prohibit contracts Of all kinds.
Justice Wright held that the bucket
shop law, a new section passed by
Congress to supplement the anti-gam-
bling statutes of the District, was too
broad, and prevents transaction of any
board OF trade business, including le-
gitimate brokerage. He said enforce

BLAME IT ON THE GOVERNMENT

It is a popular pastime to blame all current ills of a nation on the govern ment, whereas many social and econo- mic evils come from causes over which neither the polls nor halls of state ever held sway.
 More than 60O0O persons applied for municipal relief in New York city dur ing 1909, an increase of 80 per cent in five years.
 During 1909 more than 100000 per- sons applied for shelter in New York lodging houses. This was more than double the highest record of similar applications during the last seven years. The records show that between 1904 and 1909 suicides have increased in New York by 90 per cent and that the chief cause of suicide is poverty.
 The fact remains that the increased cost of living is burden to all except those who control the market of our necessities. The less we own, the more we are hit by the increased cost of living Naturally if the tariff adds to the cost of living it must share a portion of the responsibility for the increased suffering among the poor.
 Now. the reason the cost of living Is high is slowly being discovered As the population grows, the numbers of tillers of the soil become less the number of people who make bread and butter and grow sheep be- come less.
 A man cannot be legislated nor vot- ed into feeding pigs nor sowing corn There is a great movement west to new land, but the effect of this in butter and flour will not he felt for severa years yet. when the condition wil doubtless be alleviated-if the critic, do not starve to death in the mean. time.

 The citizens of Southeastern Alaska will leave no stone unturned to get what they believe their just rights in the matter and we trust they will be successful in their undertaking.
