William Fanum appears in great character in "The Plunderer, ' at the Orpheum in the bin which opened last night and is on again to- night. There are typical mining scenes, similar to those on Gastin- eau channel. Claire Whitney who ls a Juneau fayorite. has dainty character to impersonate and does it well as she always does. Eliza beth Eyre. as Lilly" of the dance hall. is a new movie actress to Ju- neau and she gives an interesting study of one side of the white way life" There are thrills a-plenty, and the comedy element and pathetic moments are cleverly drawn.
 .The Broken Coin" chase at the Grand is carrying us across the dreary desert in the second episode which started yesterday. Grace Gun ard loses her half of the coin but bv clever maneuvering secures the other half. "The Broken Coin" is going to develop some sensations which will be well to connect with. There are two good comedies and a two.reel story "Uncle John" which is a pretty thing with Violet Merser- eau in a leading part.
 l. A. Le Barge closed his two nights engagement at the Douglas Lyric last night but he should be able to secure another engagement as his program is sufficient for an extended run. Mir Le Barge made hit with the Douglas people
 Both audiences at the Douglas Or preum last night appreciated "The Girl I Left Behind Me" because 1t is something out of the ordinary run of movies seen on the channel lately. There is plenty of Stars and stripes military settings and excellent Indian additions. Robert Edeson and Clare Whitney have two very prominent parts and the remainder of the cast is all that the demands require. Stuart Holmes plays the heavy part as usual and loses his expected lady love. "The Girl I left Behind Me- is strictly a military play and puts one right up on their mettle to wit ness the various scenes.
 Tomorrow night and for the bal ance of the week, J. A. Le Barge will appear at the Grand. He is an entertainer of much merit, an artis- tic performer.

On pages 131, BOB, 207, and others, Brother
Wallace can find obscenity such as he never
before saw in book.
Did the Government have a powerful and
righteous motive, in publishing this very ex-
pensive work?
Did the Government mean to give warning
to people against past, present, and future
influence and practise that aCere eUiI?
Certainly, not. The Government caused the
translation of the publication for no other
purpose than to crafty the academic curiosity
of few hundred scientists who are INTERESTED
in Ethnology.
The very first story in the book is revolt
ingly obscene; and there are three pages Of
this filth, accompanied by the original Indian
words, and their English equivalents-the
most costly type-settng and proofreading
possible.
Franz Boas was the translator. and the
Smithsonian Institution sent the MSS to the
Public Printer. The Washington Postmaster,
and the mailing clerks of Congress are accom-
places, with j. w. Powell, and the other
Ubiquitous miscreants who have conspired,
confederated, and co-operated to nasty up
Uncle Sans mails with this unspeakable filth.
This nauseating obscenity was buried, in
the language of an almost extinct Oregon
tribe of Indians, when these scientific cranks
dug it up and called it chronological
Now, Brother Wallace, our duty is clear:
we must hunt the, big game.
We can't afford to waste the Governments
time and money on four more years of the
case Of "Mr. Thomas E. Watson"
We can't afford to be forever shooting at
sparrow with our big governmental guns
Let's pick out men Of Uncle Sans size, and
put stripes on 'em.

G. lawyers who were roasting Watson, let's

to roast me, in public, scandaloniously, be-
cause had used the word "rut" in one of
my celebrated Love-letters to the bachelor
priests; and yet, month never passes in
which some of the publishers and book dealers
whom | have mentioned mail copies of ''Tom
Jones'" the English novel so highly praised
by Thackeray in his famous "Lectures''- and
the Eleventh chapter of this classic work uses
the words "rutting season" just as I did.
Fielding did not write for imbecile prudes
nor did /; and Thackeray was equally robust
in the use of vernacular and perfectly legiti-
mate words.
Dean Swift, the wizard genius, the devout
pars0m, the man possessed of the "divine in
dignation" against Wrong! Did my Brother
Wallace ever read the Deans prose, or his
poetry?
Does Brother Wallace remember how Lem
uel Gulliver quenched the fames when the
Capitol of Lilliput was about to sink into
ashes?
Does he remember what CULVER saw and
heard in the land of the Houghmmns?
If SO, he has the measure of the Deans
obscenity, and Of the violence done to Section
Oil, Revised Statutes, by the American pub
fishers and jobbers who are mailing Dean
Swlfts works, every aceek IN every gear.
Thackeray admired Fielding; and Sir Walter
wrote the biographical sketch to accompany
that edition of Smollett's novels which New
York publishers and dealers have been mail
ing for at least half century.
Of course, Brother Wallace knows how OBJ
scene Smollett is; and our Secret Service men
could not have an easier task, than to catch
the New York malefactors in the very act of
butting into Section 211.
But how can Brother Wallace and I get a
palmer case than we have on the Benziger
Bros, of New York, Cincinnati, and Chicago?
This firm mailed me a copy of 'The City
of God" work whose holy name banlshed
suspicion from my mind.
Imagine, if you can, my horror and wrath,
when found that in Chapter 46, the author,
St. Augustine, had used page of language
so obscene that the editor did not dare to
translate 1t into English.
Saint Augustine had a theory, as to how
the human race would have been propagated,
without carnal appetite and compensation, If
Mother Eve had not been out-talked by that
snake, and had not bothered that forbidden
Shockley apple.
The Saints theory, I grieve to say, must
have been prophetically aimed at Section 211;
and at my Brother Wallace.
It is awfully obscene, and drips filth.
But it is in Latin; and so the Benziger
Bros. believed it was not ''published," within
the meaning Of the English and American
law
If ever Judge Lambdin's officials publish,
IN Latin, the announcements, notices, and adj
vertisements, which are required by law to be
published, I guess he will open his eyes to the
dangers of holding, that the statute does not
mean gin English" when it says "pu6zish."

We amt scared we can't be intimidated:
nobody need write letters to as, finging fiouts

severely; and if we find that this Catholic
triple pronged book-house has been doing

mustn't bite off, at one time, more than we can

Before [ close, though, let me mention that
book which the Government publishes and
which members of Congress send through the
mails, namely, "Tsimshian Texts"
If Congress doesn't vote to suit Tumulty

fetch it to book-to vile book, at that.

For fear that Brother Wallace may be in
credulous, let me quote, as far as | dare to-,
few of these Tsimshian Texts, which your
Government, at great expense to you and
other taxpayers caused to be translated from
the Indian tongue, published in yours, and
sent through the mails-to the lamentable
nastying of the mail-sacks.
On page %, we have the affecting story of
"Txamsemo-pronounce it any way you like.

he would steal it. He tore off the bark of a

Then he walked the chief and said to him,
You your blanket You did it in your

Then he said, HIM, what smell?"
The rest of the story is of the same sort.

On page 118, is the tale of Tsak and the
Great Grizzly Bear. In way, it reminds me
of Jonah and the whale. The Great Grizzly

MANY NEW ALL. CHARTERS
ISSUED DURING 4 MONTHS
GROWTH OF ORGANIZED LABOR
SHOWS REMARKABLE GAIN.
From July IS TO October IS There Were
40 Charters Written for New un-
ions by National Labor Body.

During the period between July 10
and October 10 the American Federation
OF Labor has issued charters to l20 al
filiated unions This is the largest num-
Der that has probably ever been issued
in a cores sponding three months since
its organization
OF this number there were issued be
tween July 10 and August 10, charters
to the following unions: Two to central
bodies. p to trade unions, and eight TO
federal unions.
From August Is to September Is the
increase was: Five central bodies, IS
trade unions. and II federal unions.
In addition to these charters were is
sued to the international Jewelry Work
ers Union and the Bricklayers, Masons
and Plasterers International Union.
There Is no diminution in the mum
her of applications for charters coming
in. and unless some unforeseen condition
develops there is 4 strong probability
that the number viii increase rather
than diminish for some time to come.
The fact seems to be pretty well fixed
in the minds OF many thousands of
workers that there is no possible hope
OF maintaining the conditions now pre-,
vailing governing the shorter workday
and wages outside a strong, militant
union. That thought is irrevocably i'm
pressed on the minds of the workers and
will no doubt impel them to seek such
action as will lead to the only logical
way of securing protection and curb the
Unsuitable demands OF employers for
more profits and increased dividends

During the period Of time under con
sideration the affiliated national and In
teruatioual unions have probably issued
charters to an equal number of new
unions.

Of workers have had practical experience

As war measure, the DemieuN act
had been extended TO apply to all work

enithsonian Institution.

The first great scientific institute in
America, the Smithsonian institution
in Washington, was founded ~ years
ago. James Lewis Macie Smithson, who
beaueathed the funds for the rounding
of the institution, was a natural son
of the third duke of Northumberland.
He was a distinguished scientist and
freethinking philosopher, and on ms
death in 1929 left his fortune OF abou
S59O,O00 to his nephew, with the pro-
viso that if his heir died without issue
the money was to go to the united
| States government and to be used in
establishing an institution for the in
crease and diffusion of knowledge.
His nephew died in 1885 without heirs,
and the property accordingly came into
possession of the government. The in
stitution was formally organized on
August S, 1916, and placed under the
control Of a board of trustees, consist
ing of the president and vice president
of the United States, the cabinet mem-
bers, the chief justice of the Supreme
court, and other officials. The Smith
sonian institution has played an i'm
portant part in the scientific re-
searches of the last half century, and
its publications have added vastly to
human knowledge. The remains OF
james Smlthson, buried at Genoa, were
brought to America in 1904 and buried
on the institutions grounds.
