should no more try to suppress It

that causes the coughing. This can
nearly always be done by taking

WILL DO HIM NO GOOD.

According to telegraphic news received here last Saturday evening from Anchorage, Attorney Grigsby, democratic candidate for territorial at- torney general met with great reception at that place. If we can read between the lines, we can see that Grigsby has no hope for election with Schofield and Cobb working against him Cobb will draw most of his support from the dem ocratc rank reducing Grigsby's chance and in creasing that of Schofield thus allowing the lat ter to slip in. To us, Grigsby's main ambition appears to be to defeat Wick; and apparently at least, he is doing splendid work along that line At Anchorage. it is predicted that Sulzer will carry the precinct with an overwhelming majority. From Fairbanks comes the news that he is receiving very ging promises of support While Grgsby's tour may not do hIm any good, it seems to be helping Sulzer, which is the main object

It has been suggested-of course only after one had been injured-that the parents should see to it that their children should not harm others. It appears that some boys-many of them-are in habit of using rubber bands with which to threw things at other boys and one was possibly seriously injured as a result Now, as matter of fact, boys at their best are only ter TOTS.

WASHINGTON TO GO BACK.

A ride on the dry wagon lasting ten months has been sufficient to convince the tax payers of the state of Washington that they made mis- take when they adopted the fantastic notion to reform the world with one blow. According to presumably well informed men who have lived practically all their lives in Washington and Ore gon, the dry notion was the craziest notion that ever got the upper hand of the people of those states. The property has no value. Property owners are taxed out of proportion to the rev enue they derive from their property. For in stance, while the taxes are practically the same, as they were two years ago, one man says that he is the owner of a house and lot in town which boasted of over twelve thousand inhabit- ants two years ago, and that he refused $4,500 for the place at that time; he is now getting $5

no intention of disturbing his slum-

CHICAGO SHIVERS WHILE
COAL SUPPLY IS SHORT

Chicago, Dec. 18.-Shivering from
the cold wave sweeping the shores
of Lake Michigan, Chicagoans learn
ed they face a coal famine within a
week. Coal experts estimated the
largest available supply in any dis
trict of the city could not hold out
more than 10 days.
A statement that G. w. Anderson,
special assistant to the attorney gen.
eral, is looking into the coal short
age, was made at the office of the
United States district attorney.
Government investigators, accord
ing to the statement, "are engaged on
the problem of how far the high
price of coal and other necessaries
in Chicago are due to combinations
obnoxious to the antitrust laws"
Mr.. Anderson is quoted as saying:
"No one has any right to give cur
rency to the idea that famine either
in coal or in any other necessity ex-
lists, because such reports simply play
into the hands of spectators and
would-be promoters, of illegal cor
ners."

WET And DRY LINEUP
ENGR0SSES NEBRASKA
(By United Press)

Lincoln, Neb., Dec. 1S.-With the
convening of the Nebraska legisla-
lures thirty-ffth session here Jan
uary 2, interest will center on the
wet and dry lineup and the legisla-
tive battle for laws to make effective
the dry amendment passed by almost
10000 majority at the recent elec-
tiOn.
The vets, realizing that prohibi-
tion would carry, centered their fight
toward the last on winning enough
members of the legislature to block,
if possible, passage of laws aimed to
make prohibition effective.
The drys have slight majority in
the house. In the senate the ma
jority of the members are personally
wet, but of the thirty-three members,
six are known as "law-enforcements." ;"
These are men who before election
admitted that they were personally
not in favor of prohibition but would
be governed as legislators by the ver-
dict of the people ON the prohibition
amendment. These "law-enforce-
ments" combined with the drys out
number the out-and-out vets in the
senate.

GOVERNORS DEMAND THE
RETURN OF THEIR MILITIA

Washington, Dec. 18.-With prac-
tically every governor in the country,
whose troops are still on the Mex
ican border, demanding their return,
Secretary of War N. D. Baker de-
clined to intimate when the national
guard will be brought home.
Governor E. F. Dunno of Illinois
called on the secretary to request i'm
mediate return of all Illinois troops
remaining on the border. Mr.. Baker
was busy when the governor reached
his office and so Mr.. Dunno conveyed
his request through Senator Thomas
Walsh, Jr., of Montana. Senator
Walsh added his recommendation
that the governors request be acted
upon favorably. Governor Dunno es-
pecially wants the men home by
Christmas and if it is impossible to
get them back then, he wants them
in Illinois not later than Jan. I.

MAIL =.
SHOULD Be SENT
IMMEDIATELY, IS
WARNING ISSUED
Postmaster Ritchie Urges ALI to- Get
Busy; Wrap Securely and
Address Plainly.
PLACE YOUR NAME UPON
PACKAGE BEFORE MAILING
Don't Call Postofice Over the Phone
to Inquire for Mail During the
Christmas Rush,

Get your mail packages into the
postoffice at the earliest possible
moment to insure delivery at their
destination in time for Christmas,
is the warning issued today by Post
master Ritchie. The Christmas rush
commenced today at the postoffice
and is on in earnest as indicated by
the congestion Of boxes and pack
ages. Mail destined for distant
points should be mailed Immediately.
Postmaster Ritchie says all pack
ages should be wrapped securely and
fastened securely. Addresses should
be marked plainly and the name of
the sender and address should also
appear upon the package.
The money order window will
close at the regular time, o'clock,
throughout the week, but the deeliv-
cry window and receiving window for
parcel post will remain open until
o'clock.
No extra clerks or carriers will
be employed during the Christmas
rush, but the men will work over
time in an effort to clean up the
mass of Christmas mail.
Owing to the rush at the post
office, Postmaster Ritchie requests all
persons not to telephone the office
with inquiries as to whether there
is mail there for them as it takes
up considerable time of the employees
and delays the work of the post
office employees.
Again-get that package into the
postoffice Immediately. Do it now.
