LET THE CHIEF DO IT

Every few days someone comes in with complaint that they have lost ths that and other things When asked how it happened, the reply inv1arably, IS the things disappeared" This is followed by either a long trade against the officials the petty thves or both.
 Now, and as matter of fact, the Progressive Nm CT is no detective If it it would have found the party who took our Sunday dinner from the back yeranda sometime ago. In view of that fact, we would advise those whose things have myserously disappear ed to organize what may be called "spook hunters Club" There should be doubt but what spooks are the thieves, because real live person would soon be caught by the police. Our officers always on the alert live thieves but they only human, they cannot see spooks hence the disappearance of things mysteriousy.
 Every town in Alaska at this time of the year is more less annoyed by gangs of petty thieves Now and again an example is made by punshing guilty party when caught But the trouble is to catch them That's where the rub comes in. To expect that one officer can cover the whole town at once and the same time is unreasonable. While he may be here watching suspicious character, another is taking our Sunday dinner to his cabin. The law punish but the law cannot always catch that it pun ish, and there you are.

it turned out are forced to admit that judge ment was also at fault However, if we look back a few weeks, find that the statewide prohbitionists joined the suffragists in the fight, and that's where both parties made their mistake. The moment that activity of both advocates of reforms joined from that very they sealed the verdict and de- feat inevitable.
 Hundreds of thousands of throughout the United tates would gladly grant the women the privi ege to vote, provided they would agree to let the liquor question alone It is particularly among the bachelors. The bachelors under the impression that the the prohbitionists joined the sui fragists it meant the elimination of what they call their privilege. And in way they are right. To us it seems that if the advocates of these two reforms had reegated the question of statewide prohibition the back seat and fought the suffrage movement by itsf, they would have carried their point. Many states have had the experience and whenever the the suffagettes have tried alone they have generally succeeded It is too much reform at time, and men who are very much accustomed to have their own way revolt against force that wants to make them good sudden like. It is to be hoped that the re- formers will know better next time.

DUE TO THE TARIFF
(From the Post-Intelligencer)

(From the Post-Inteligencer)
 One of the later bulletins of the department of com merce covering the details of the foreign trade of the country for the months ended with July 31, gives an opportunity for interesting comparison of trade conditions under the Dingley tariff under the present tariff and under the present tariff mod fled by conditions
 In the seven months of 1913 of which the statistics are given the country still unred the Dngley law.
 In the seven months of 1914 the Democratic tariff law was in effect and the had just commenced at the close of the period. The months of 1915 show the full influence of the war.
 The figures show extraordinary increase in inn ports, especially of goods placed the free list as soon as the Democratic law went into effect The effect of the has been to drop the whole volume of imports back substantially to what they before the importation of foreign goods was stimulated by the expansion of the free list by the Democras and the lowering of the duties other products. The figures also show that while under conditions imports are rapidly approaching the highest figures of the past the entire gain in the volume of imports has been of goods on which duties collected.
 The explanation for the decreased income of the government given by the Democrats that the inn ports of the country have fallen off The figures given by the government itself show that the loss of is due to the reductions in the tariff duties and to no other whatever.

"HEARTS IN EXILE
AT FOX'S THEATER

A splendid bill of quality photo
plays, such as has never before been
offered at popular prices, Is in store
for Fox patrons for the first two days
of this week commencing with to-
days matinee. The big multiple reel
feature is the Shubert attraction fea-
turing Clara kimball Young in
Hearts in Exile,' story of Russian
life. which was cordially received at
the New York Hippodrome, playing
there to immense crowds. Owen
Davis dramatized this photo-play from
John Oxenhams famous novel, and
it's worth is a splendid addition to
the already numerous big attractions
of the Shubert studios. The ride
for freedom over the frozen lake, the
plunge through a hole In the ice and
the final escape of Hope and Paul,
the main characters of the play, pro-
vide tense and thrilling scenes. The
play is gripping from start to
finish as it depicts life in Siberia, it's
loathesome quarters allotted to exiles
and its many tortures melted out to
it's prisoners. Clara Kimball Young
gives a sterling performance of Hope,
young Russian woman devoted to
the cause of the patriots, and at all
times she holds your attention with
her impressive delineation Of the
character, while her supporting COM
pany is a most capable one.
In conjunction with THE Hearts
in Exile the latest chapter of the

in it's two thousand feet of celluloid
enough thrills and suspense to suffice

THE paramount issue before the
! American people today is not the
| tariff, nor corporation control, nor
any of those other political or eco

psychological issue of personal. fun

citizen willing to produce all the
wealth he requires and to work and
vote to render it impossible hence

hocus-pocus, to acquire wealth that
others have produced? That's the
issue. Along that line will be fought
the battle for the control Of that twi-
