BLACK LIST STIRS
ANTI-SUFFRACISTS
Opponents Of the Ballot
to Defend Liberty
of Legislators.
From The Tribune Bureau

Washington, Aug. 30. The suf-
fragists' black list of Legislators hostile
to their cause is bitterly denounced in
statement made public to-day by Mrs.
Arthur VI. Dodge, Of New York. preSi-
dent of the National Association OPP
posed to Woman Suffrage.
I'VE propose" said Mrs. Dodge. "to
put an end forever TO the idle threats
Of a little band OF excitable women. If
the suifragists are sincere i'm their
threats to invade the districts Of the
eighteen men named in their black list
the National Association Opposed to
Woman Suffrage will meet the issue
fairly and squarely. We are prepared
TO send our ablest speakers into the
campaign and see that the truth about
the sufFragist black list is told and that
full Justice is done TO the men selected
for an unwarranted and unreasoning
attack
81 shall rcsolutely oppose all prop
ostions looking to national prohibition
and woman's suffrage" declares a
statement issued to-day by Represen-
tative Robert L. Henry. of Texas. chair
man of the House Rules Committee,
before which the fight on each Of these
measures Is pending.
ut is not possible to draw any
amendment providing for national pro-
hibition that am willing &c support"
Representative ilenry's statement
was issued in connection with a letter
addressed TO Dr. J. II. Gambrell, Of
Dallas. head Of the Texas Anti-SaloOn
League. who asked Mr.. Henry TO review
the pending amendments and decide
whether a proposal for national pro-
hibition could be so framed as to win
his support.
In his letter Mr.. Henry points on.
that. with the passage Of the Webb
bill. the question of shipment Of liquor
into prohibition territory was remanded
to the jurisdiction Of the several
states
With four of the eleven members OF
the Rules Committee openly opposed
to a constitutional amendment for
woman suffrage, two others probably
against it and four IN favor. il is re
garded as improbable that a special
rule under which the matter can be
brought up will be obtained during tho
present OF December sessions Of Con
gIeSs.

In the Valdez Commoner for June 27, i3l4, appears copy ot all affidavit, sworn to by q highly respected lady of Fairbanks, before ". H. Woolridge, q notary public of that place, charging the U. S. Marshall of Fairbanks L. T.

space of a few years he is enriched and can indulge in fast horses and other fast articles, and make frequent tours of Europe. Where does that wealth come from From the sweat and hard labor of the pick and shovel stiff!
 Time was when certain company was regarded, rightly or wrongly, as the enemy of the camp, but that com pany was taught lesson a d until the recent raise was so reasonable and nice that the miners locked to its wholesale and retail department for purchases. That company may take tumble and get sensible aga1n without being taught another lessoh and then it is quite pos sible that | III ay be able to command the business of the whole camp and make more profit than it is do1ng at pre- sent.
 At this stage the reader may ask what's the remedy? We'll, there are sev- era1 remedies. We have seen that when the price of sugar, milk &c were un- reasonably raised the miners went with out these articles and left them to the merchants for their own consumption. It is early enough yet iii the season for for some enterpr1sing party to procure enough stuff and pail down prices and make profit on the venture---And such a
The Alaska socialist., 1914-07-11

will tell---and before the reader has fin ished this article he will see--- whether or not people are justified in present conditions to order stuff from the out side and prevent themselves from being plundered and robbed.
 Now, to begin with, the raise was made before the freight rates were known and the small difference between the rates of this year and last could not by any means justify a material raise in the prices of grub. One has only to compare the Dawson prices with ours to see how we are swind1ed and robbed by the companies. If raise, as uniustifi able and of as great magnitude as ours took place ill the Dawson country we would hear of an indignation meeting and boycotting, but the people here, for some reason or other, are subdued and spiritless and only protest in whispers and murmurs.
 This hydra-headed monster, Price Raising, is the Octopus that has killed the operators chances of working in tHe camp for this year at least, when other wise there would be five tl1es the num- Der of laboring men employed. One ex- tens1ve operator on account of the raise has closed down his works and is pre-
The Alaska socialist., 1914-07-11

In quoting the market conditions the morning Times of July 18th, stated per haps unconscious1y, that complaints were coming from the creeks of the high price of grub, which the operators de clare is as high as in 1905. Now, it hap pens that the Times remarks were the first refenence to the widespread ind1g- nation expressed during the past couple of months by operators, old prospectors and others about the exorbitaut raise in prices. When the raise was made there was no cause for it; and in the eyes of some at the time it looked strange, and to others it looked criminal Before the raise came the News Miner advised peo- pie to buy, buy. buy, as it knew that raise would take place, but how could people buy at time when there was no money? As we'll try to take the brooches oil Highlander. The morning Times, apparently the organ of the Interests, gave it's indorsment and blessing to the scandalous raise in prices. And these two dailies and the Citizen claniored a.
 bout the people sending their money to the Outside mail order houses. Why not keep the III oney here, pay exorbitant prices and further enrich the so-called fair and heavily-taxed merchants? Time

pairing to depart for Germany till grub is cheapened by the railway service, while others for similar reasons are let ting their claims lie idle, for they all declare that the ground is not rich e. nough to bear the increase in grub prices which would only enrich the merchants and leave themselves without a cent aft CT all their hardships, trouble and hard labor. Now, the merchants of course say they have been working without much profit. True enough, some times they may have had little profit on some ar ticles but at all times they have enor- nous and fabulous profits off other ar- ticles. Of course it was apparent to ev- erybody that the recent raise---1n view of the coming railway---was established III order to bleed the camp to the last centit the people were fools to stand for it! They have started deliberately to kill the goose that laid the golden egg, but they have overshot the mark!
 Let us see if there are no profits. It is argued that some merchants went to the wall. True, but these merchants stupid ly gave credit to men who actually went to the outside with money--their mouey. Take examples and examine into them.

Nations Must Deliver Letters.

New York, Aug Letters address

may become involved in war are GER
tain to reach their destination eventu-
ally, although considerable time may
be lost in transmission. The London
naval conference of 190S1909 obligat-

confscated ship. The parcel post

cation, was threatening Germany's
| safety.
Italy to Remain Neutral.
The only redeeming feature OF the
darkest prospect with which Europe
has been faced for half a century is
that Italy has declared her neutrali-
! ty. But how long that neutrality can
be maintained is an exceedingly de-
| batable question.
Great Britain Fully Prepared.
The British government, however,
has made full preparations in both
services for whatever may happen.
The present position, therefore, is
that Russia, France and Servia are
Hungary and Germany on the other
How long the warfare will be confin-
ed to this plan, II is impossible to
foretell; nor can 1t be foretold
whether Belgium and Holland will
be able to maintain their neutrality
against their powerful neighbors, or
whether Great Britain will find her
self compelled to send an expedition
airy force TO attempt to preserve that
neutrality.
Another factor, which as yet has
not been given much consideration,
is the attitude OF Turkey, which, II
she has sufficiently recovered from
the effects of her late war with Italy,
may be able to throw considerable
weight into the scale. 1t is generally
understood that Germany has an eff
fective understanding with Turkey
which may lead to interesting de-
velopments.
French Stand Caused Haste.
While the kaiser originally intend
TO postpone his declaration of war
until Tuesday when the reichstag
will meet in the imperial palace Of
Berlin, It is believed that the stand
taken by France induced him to has
ten his decision.
AS In the war with France in 1870,
Germany hopes to steal a march on
her opponents by taking the often
time to mass their armies along the
German frontier.
Strict Censorship in Italy.
Rome, Aug. "A strict censor
ship has been established in Italy
over dispatches to places. abroad.
King Victor Emmanuel Is keeping
in close touch with events and is said
to be in frequent direct communica-
ton with other European rulers, es-
pecially the German emperor. The
queen is greatly affected by the fact
that her relatives in Servia and Mon
tcnegro are again implicated in a
war.
Pope Worked Hard for Peace.
The pope Is said to have made

such activities are being carried be-
yond the limits prescribed by the neu-
trality laws.
The neutrality laws not only forbid
the departing of armed expeditions
from the United States directed
against a friendly nation, but enlist

hostilities had actually commenced.
One can with perfect plausibility
multiply the cost of the F'ranco-Ger-
man war by six and arrive at the
probable cost Of this new conflict. It
would not be an extravagant estimate
to say 100000 100000 without taking
into account the numerous and almost
Unreasonable private losses.
In view of the antagonism existing
among the races inhabiting Franz
Josef's empire, this forcing Of q
doubtful struggle on her part seems
madness almost incredible.
