AND THE MINE IN
 MONTANA, TOO

We have been told prohibition is of course all right everywhere else, but is out of the question in min ing country. Of course they mine some in dry Colorado, and the fol- lowing is from the Republican plat form of Montana:
 we believe that the passage of the measure now before the electo- rate of this state, to be voted on at the next general election, prohibit ing the manufacture and sale of in. toxicating liquors, is for the best in- terest of the commonwealth, and we pledge our support to it. If it is adopted by the voters we pledge the passage and literal enforcement of such measures as will make for na- tional Prohibition and will bring about the cessation of interstate tra- fife in intoxicants. ."-Adv.

 The radio station reports that at four o'clock St Paul island said the Victoria was not through the Pass at 2 D. m., although the steamer had entered it at 7.45 a. m. It was plo"- ing a lively fury in the shape of south wester, but that should not bother the Alaska Steamship Cos liner. The Umatilla had not been reported, nor was it's position known It must however be close behind the Victoria. With slush ice forming now in the roadstead from the fall ing snow drift, the work of dis charging the Victoria and Umatllla will be a very difficult matter. It is estimated that there are two thou sand tons of merchandise on board the two boats for Nome and this Will take up considerable time.

Mr.. Osborne agreed TO make the

to make reparation for misdemeanors,

have meant their discharge from the
service or imprisonment for . long
term Of years.
'The result Of the movement al
ready had been manifested. Against
60 men In navy prisons today there
were 800 three years ago. Discipline
has improved immeasurably the num-
Der Of court martials has been de-
creased, assertions are fewer and the
men gradually are better satisfied

WASHINGTON, Nov. II. - Here
follows the Presidents proclamation:
1T has long been the custom Of our
people to turn in the fruitful autumn
Of the year in praise and Thanksgiving
to Almighty God for His many bless
ings and mercies to us and the nation.
1.-THE year that has elapsed since we
last observed our day of Thanksgiving
has been rich in blessings to us as a
people, but the whole face of the world
has been darkened by war. In the
midst Of our peace and happiness, our
thoughts dwell with painful disquiet
upon the struggles and sufferings of
the nations at war and of the peoples
upon whom war has brought disaster
without choice or possibility of escape
on their part We cannot think of our
own happiness without thinking Of
their pitiful distress.
Now, therefore, /, Woodrow Will
son, president Of the United States
of America, do appoint Thursday, the
thirtieth of November as q day Of ma.
tional thanksgiving and prayer, and
urge and advise the people to resort to
their several places of worship on that
day to render thanks to Almighty God
for the blessings of peace and unbrok-
en- prosperity which He has bestowed
upon our beloved country in such un.
stinted measure.
"And l also urge and suggest our
duty, in this our day of peace and
and think In deep sym.
pathy of the stricken peoples Of the
world upon whom the curse and terror
