GOOD ADVICE TO THE LIQUOR
 INTERESTS

In discussing the effort to stop the sale of intoxicating liquors to Indians District Attorney Roth stated the other day that the saloonmen could do much to stamp out the practice by aiding in bringing the men to justice and he pointed out how in that way they can assist themselves, says the Fairbanks Citizen.
 There is a lesson in what MT. Roth said that should be observed by all licensed saloonmen. These are us. ually two classes of liquor dealers, just as there are two classes of other kinds of business people, the good and the bad. The saloonkeepers who re- sort to trickery and questionable methods have brought the business into disrepute from which it is now suffering.
 It is quite certain that the tricky liquor dealer does more to promote prohibition than does the active re. former. He does this by creating public sentiment against saloons, for his trickery in almost all instances is sure to be found out.
 The saloonkeeper who sells in- toxicating liquors to Indians or minors, or allows boys to loiter in his place of business, or who keeps open on days forbidden by law, defies the law and hurts not only himself but the other men who are engaged in the same line of business.
 In the last few years the drygoods merchants have awakened to the harm that is being done their business by dishonest, tricky dealers. To over come this they have organized the Ad clubs, in almost all the large cities, and these clubs make it their business to get laws passed to prevent mis- leading advertisements and to bring dishonest merchants to justice.
 Why could not the law-ablding sa- loonmen of Interior Alaska organize for the purpose of raising the stand ard of their business. In that way they could see that liquors are not sold to habitual drunkards or to children or Indians and could put out of busi- ness the disreputable class of dealers.
 There has already been an effort made to get congress to pass a law to put stop to the saloon business fin Alaska. The fact that many of the States went dry at the recent election, shows the tendency of the times. If the Alaska saloonmen are going to permit their business to be degraded, 1t must be but matter of a short time until prohlbitive laws will be passed in this Territory, that will end their operations here.

THE MODERN FACTORY

equipped rest rooms one of the
latest and most up-to-date concert
talking machines brings to mind the
remarkable interest which the mill
owner of the present day is taking in
the welfare and comfort of his en-
ployes.
Time was when the average factory
was an lily ventilated. poorly lighted
miserably equipped place of drudgery
to which the girl went each morning
with feelings of dread and left each
evening with sigh of relief Factory
owners apparently cared little or not
at all for the interests of the employees;
nothing mattered but the amount OF
work which was produced each day
These days are past. Every effort
| is made now to make the modern fac
tory a place where the workers will
! like and not hate to be. Time, thought
and money are expended to give the
employees women employees
opportunity to develop the better
sides of their natures. Meetings are
held weekly and oftener in many cases
by such organizations as the Young
Women's Christian Association, where
the girls hear the best talent in the
city. Rooms are provided for the girls
in which to lounge during the rest
hours, And now comes the installa-
ton of musical instruments for the
employees pleasure.
Naturally the question arises, does
the manufacturer do these things
purely for unselfish motives? Perhaps
not, Probably the mill owner realizes
that better working conditions produce
inevitably better and more work and
incidentally larger profits. But what
of it; if this be selfishness let the Ogre
of Self do his worst.

fact that while the filter plant and

4 cratic administration, and cer-
tainly not to be accused OF

that of all the States of the Union,
Pennsylvania stands at the head for
economy of financial management.
While the per capita of State debt
IN the United States has been con-
stantiy increasing in recent years, that
or pennsylvania has been steadily di-
minishing until now, according to the
Census Bureau. we have no State debt.
There is In the State Treasury at this
time sinking fund deposits to more
than cover the outstanding bonds and
their interest. In other words, Penn
sylvania now has less than no State
debt, if the phrase be permissible.
When the last bonds are redeemed and
the last interest paid, there will re-
main substantial balance in the fund
set aside to pay the State debt.
New York, with it's frequent Demo
cratic administrations, is among the
States that show an increase of in
debtedness.
These facts, in the face Of the
charges of eXtravagances and NAL
administration, on which Democratic
and Progressive candidates are basing
their campaigns for election to State
office next Fall, come as a ringing call
to Pennsylvania voters to vindicate
the party that has been so grossly
misrepresented by officeseeking politi-
clans bent on attaining their own ends
even at the cost of the good name of
the Commonwealth they claim as
home.
When a Democratic census bureau
feels called upon to admit that Re-
publican Pennsylvania is well-man-
aged State, there can be little doubt
of the truth OF the statement.
