1T is doubtful if American
prosperity was ever 50 fully in
the flood tide as today" says a
Democratic contemporary. 1t is
certain that never before were So
many men engaged in war anc
SO urgently in need of the com,
mOdities we have to sell. For
example-one firm of horse and
mule buyers in KaEsas City has,
in the past eighteen months, paiu
out $50, 900, 900 for animals for
shipment to Europe. That is
business transacted by one finn
in one town. When American
horse owners are getting cash at
that rate for animals they don't
need, is it any wonder that pros.
perity was never so fully in the
aoOd tide?"

gained one the other day in the
United States Senate when the
serried ranks of the Democratic
senators resisted the attempt to
put an adequate duty on dye
stuffs to the end thGt American
manufacturers might be encorr-
aged to embark in an enterprise
which would mean a declaration
of industrial independence for
this country. The incident arose
in the course of the debate on the
bill retaining the duty on sugar,
when Senator Lodge of Massa-
chusetts offered an amendment
providing for increased duties on
dye stuffs.
Senator Underwood attacked
the proposal and pointed QUO that
one reason for the lack of dye
stuffs just now = even if there

after the war there would be

he invoked all the traditions OF

Lodges amendment. The Dem.
oclats rallied behind Underwood
to a man-and Germany won d
pronounced victory, thanks tC

A New Industry for Can
. h-
ada.

In Canada, manufacturers are
turning their attention to the es
tabhshment of a toy industry:
wood pulp being one of the raw
materials to be utilized in the new
industry. This is interesting in
formation in the United States in
view of the fact that Secretary
of Commerce Redfeld announced
several months ago that his de-
partment is cooperating with
Swiss manufacturers to enable
them to build up a toy industry
in the United States. Germany
end Austria were exporting toys
to the amount of $26, 600, 600 an
nually before the war. A large
part of these come to the United
States. After the war is over,
Germany and Austria will resume
their manufacture of toys for this
country unless a protective tariff
shall be enacted which shall Sc
cure this market to the men and
women who are unwilling to work
for the low wages paid to toy
makers in Europe.

SUBMARINE VICTIMS
During 1915, 209 British steamers

During 1915, 209 British steamers were sunk by submarines, while the number of sunken steamers owned by other nations was 109. In the case of those sunk in the Mediter- ranean the total for British steamers was AS boats, compared with 36 boats owned by other nations. When the enormous preponderanco of Brit ish high seas is considered it must be admitted that the British mercantile marine has not suffered in the pro- portion which the German admiralty prophesied and confidently expected. In the case of large sailing vessels only three British ships were sunk in with 26 ships of other na and Marine News.

HISTORY REPEATS.

It Is not strange that the Republf- can party should be so still badly disorganized that it fails to appeal to the public as a vehicle for govern mental service. It nearly always has been the case where party collapsed as did the Republican party four years ago, that it has taken several quadrennial periods for it to reor- ganize itself and qualify for public service. In fact, the only exception to the rule was the Democratic party of 1844, which had been rendered in 1S40, but it then had one of the mas ter statesmen of American history for a leader Andrew Jackson's lead ership of the American people was still paramount and his counsel and advice served to bring back the party that had failed under Van Buren.
 When the Democratic party went to pieces in 1860 it required 1 6 years and the development of a Tilden to bring success to it again. And then, while the Democratic party lost the presidency through the action Of the Electoral Commission, and lost it again through fiukes and Tammany treachery in 1880 and 1888, it took the Republicans 20 years to regain the ascendency, with a new set of leaders in 1896. Again 16 years pass ed before a reorganized Democratic party could command the confidence of the people.
 Even in the country's history the rule prevailed, though the circum- stances were somewhat different in detail. The Federalists were, gener- ally speaking, in control of the coun- try for the first 12 years after the adoption of the Constitution. Then came Jefferson and the Democratic party, which continued in power until 1924, counting the Monroe "era of good feeling" during which there had been tendency on the part of the ship of state to drift back into old Federalistic channels. John Quincy Adams was elected as Jeffersonian in 1924, but he was really more Fed eralistic than Democratic. Then came Jackson in 1928, and for 32 years the reorganized Jeffersonians were in power almost continuously, surviving by 20 years the collapse of 1840.
 The exercise of the past has shown that 1t requires the development of new leaders and new issues before a party that has gone through the trib- ulations that have been visited upon the Republicans can become organ ized so as to appeal to popular conf1- dence.--EXchange.

THE CITIZENS TICKET.

The Citizens Ticket, as published yesterday in the Prospector, should meet with the approval of every citi- zen of Valdez who has the good of 'the town at heart. This ticket is made up of representative citizens, from all over the town, and they are absolutely free from entangling alli- ances of any kind.
 Not one man of the seven named can be criticised by the most careful scrutiny of their daily life. They are not out to "get" anyone, and will give every business and every citizen of the town an absolutely square deal. And it is time, if we are ever to have good substantial town here that such ticket be elected. Tho town has been torn too long by internal dissension. The agitator and reform CT should be relegated to the back ground, and conservative, sensible judgment assume control.
 There IS not business man or 8 taxpayer in the city who desires to elect a man who will give him the best of it. All any firm desires is an even break, with an equal chance with the other fellow. And these men, we believe, will give it to us. Every man on the ticket is an old timer here and knows the needs of the city, and will work for his ideals. None of them are crotchety. full of vain ideas as to what or what should not be done,-but are sober, plOd- ding workmen of high ability and of sterling character.
 We have had far too much politics in our city government. in previous elections. The fact that a man Is a Democrat or Republican, or Wick arsham man or Bunnell man should not be allowed to bias your judgment one minute. If the candidate is safe and sane, conservative, law-abiding citizen, with no reform bugs to foist on the public at the expense of the taxpayers; this should be ell that is asked for in a city official.
 For the sake of the future of our city let us turn deaf ear to the old line politicians and their annual moss grown bunk, and try and fraternize suificiently to place men in office who will tend to the city's business, and allow our industries to thrive. We have a splendid business chance here to build up town with payroll ca pablo of taking care of our citizens.

THE GREAT NEW NORTHWEST.

S~ turn observation from the older scenes of production and trucks of commerce to something new, with thanks to our great and growing farthest Northwest. We have vast possibilities to contemplate in growth of business along new ocean lanes fed by development of new industries.
 In Alaska we have progress of the government railroad to connect the southern littoral with the northern country, and the Tanana and Yukon rivers, from Seward to Fairbanks, with sections already in operation for construction trains. Probably the 1500 men wintering at Anchorage and awaiting work on the line be- tween that point and the Matanuska coal fields will compromise their ten tative strike on something between 35 and 50 cents an hour for common labor, and go to work when weather shall permit.
 The proposition in Congress to es- tablish seven aeroplane mail lines over portions of Alaska now reached in winter with great diff culty and ir- regularity by dog teams, to be oper- ated next winter, has the recommen- dation of common sense in these days of comparatively safe travel thru the air. Invention will provide safe ty against freezing of men and power.
 The growth of business between Puget Sound ports, with Seattle in the lead, and Vladivostok, the most southeasterly port of Russia's Sibe- ria, will be amazing. Russia, Japan and the United States being at peace. each with the other, the Pacific, with its gulfs, sounds and bays are safe. And now we read of eight vessels be- ing chartered for the Puget Sound Vladivostok trade with sailings opce a week already commenced. Our business with Japan and Russia in creases constantly. The other day Seattle received a record cargo of one vessel from Japan, including $3,00O- 900 worth of silks, to be rushed to Chicago, Boston and New York by ex- press.
 The commerce of Alaska in 1915, mostly via Seattle, reached $82,874,- 122. Of this Alaska received $2S,- O17,307 worth and sent out goods valued at $54,S56,s15; a big balance of trade for one year for Territory that originally cost us only $7,200,- GOO. This may we'll set us to think ing of the immense possibilities of the Alaska of the future in minerals, lumber and agriculture. when the All miles of government railroad from Seward on Resurrection Bay to the town of Fairbanks on the Panama shall be in operation. After that will come branches. Then we shall see annual increase in population making that of 1915 by 5000 insignificant. e Business of Alaska has no doubt stimulated that of Canadian Yukon

John Henry Albert has been in the
banking business jim Salem for nearly
fifty years. He was born in Wheeling
then Virginia, Feb. s, 1899, the family
moving to Cadiz, Ohio, when he was
six years old where he studied law
was admitted to the bar. He came to
Oregon with the family of Gray in
1865 and worked in the general store
conducted by Mr.. Gray at the corner
of Liberty and State streets, the pres
ent location of Brick Bros. His thrift
soon caused him to be admitted into
the firm where he attracted the atten'
tion of the late Asahcl Bush who was
organizing the Ladd & Bush bank
which opened business at the present
site of this bank, being the first bank
in Salem. Mr.. Bush offered young AL
bert the position of cashier in prefer
enee to Portland man, no less per-
sonage than Mr.. Geo. Steele, whom Mr..
Ladd had suggested for the place. The
bank was scheduled to open on the
first of April, 1868, which fell on Fri
day. Superstition prevailed on Mr.. Ladd
changing the date and the pioneer ven
ture was launched on Thursday the last
day of March 1868. Mr.. Albert was
cashier of the Ladd 4 Bush bank for
seventeen years when in 1885 he assO.
ciated himself with the late r. S. Wal
