Tacoma, WASH June 30.-Nearly all
contracts of the scores of route car
riers in the Pacific Northwest ex-
pire today, and the greater number
have refused to renew their mail-car-
rying contracts with the post office
department. Carriers who have re-

retiring in disgust or insist that they
must receive from $4,000 to $4,000
annually. For eighteen months they
have been delivering sugar, flour,
lumber and other freight in counties
distant from railroads and steam
boats Wholesalers find it cheaper to
ship by parcel post than by freight.

resolution in favor of a constitutional
amendment for national prohibition,
but adopted a substitute in favor Of
the abolition of all taxation and licen-
sing of the liquor traffic. We have
had many curious political develop
ments in the last few years, but no.
thing more peculiar than this in the
prohibition convention of Wisconsin.
The Badger State has been the
seeding ground of many reforms, and
it is evident that the soil has not been
exhausted. The prohibition party has
been IN the political field for half a
century, and it has nominated candi-
dates for president, and presented ma
tional platforms every four years.
IT. has not made a great showing in
votes, but it has been one OF the polt-
ical parties to present it's claims to
the voters.
In the last few months many peti-
tions have come to congress praying
for an amendment to the federal con-
stitution for national prohibition, and
the inference might have been drawn
that these came from prohibitionlsts
Many statesmen on the hill have Deen
nervous over this development, when
churches, Sunday schools and lem
perance societies Joined in the peti
tions, and some ambitious political
leaders have sought to take the lead
in the new crusade. But here comes
the prohibitonists with a reputation
of this political platform. They will
not stand on it. 1t is not theirs
and not in harmony with their plans.
What is the reason?
1t is barely possible that the pro-
hibitionists who have been so long
in the field have discovered what has
not occurred to the new converts,
that an amendment to the federal con.
stitution would come in conflict with
the old fundamental idea of our gov
ernment that the states retained the
police power and would never sur
render it; that that idea is too firmly
rooted to be destroyed in a political
campaign and that it will not help
any political party who fathers it.
So the prohibitionists of Wiscon-
sin fall back on the old doctrine that
they have held to in the past, that
it is within the power of congress
to repeal the internal tax laws, AMI
cease to collect federal revenues or
grant federal occupation stamps on
the liquor traffic. Congress could
repeal the laws it has enacted, cease
to have. anything to do with the
business, and leave the whole ques-
ton to the states. That would be
no infringement of state rights. The
prohibition party has never declared
in favor of national prohibition by
changing the constitution of the Uni
ted States. 1t looks as though the

are consistent and they may also be

have been protesting against the over
loading of cars with mail sacks to be
carried from cities to suburban towns.
The managers of the lines have asked
that the limit of six scales of mail
for each car be observed because the
trolley crews, through their unions,
were complaining and demanding
more wages.
