many, and that three or four days
constitute reasonable time for a re.

one instance where breaking of re-

has not brought war-that which now
exists between Germany and Italy.
Congress received the President IS
declaration OF his course with mixed
evidences OF concern and appreciation.
Most of the leaders, Democrat and Re

could do less. and some expressed the

to war. Republican Leader Mann

Rawlings, Wyo., April 25.-Once too
often the parlor car bandit of the
Union Pacific road made his smiling
appearance in spectacular robbery.
II was going to be his last job" and
he bungled 1t. He was trailed, cor
nered and captured Saturday after
river twenty miles north of Fort
Steele, Wyo., station eight miles
east of Rawlins. He had fled on foot
more than thirty miles from the point
where he jumped off the California
Limited Friday night. A posse of 200
mounted men, flanked by automobiles,
surrounded him in wide circle.
With Wyoming's death penalty for
train robbery over his head and with
$1,000 reward out for him, dead or
alive, he refused to fire ON his captors.
He had the drop" on the first man to
overtake him, City Marshal William
Hayes of Walcott, but as the latter
turned to race for help TIE bandit
threw down his revolver and called to
him: Come and get me. won't
shoot. What's the use?"
Hayes, suspecting treachery, whipped
out his own gun and fired. The shot
went wild and the robber laughed,
throwing up his hands to show he was
unarmed. The marshal KEEP, him COW
cred with his weapon until the rest of
the posse rode up.
The bandit said his name was Will
lam l.. Carlisle, 20 years old, and that
he had been employed recently on the
Joe Starr ranch, twenty miles north
west OF Cheyenne. He confessed at
once to Fridays holdup and to the
robbery OF the Overland Limited near
Cheyenne. April 4. and OF the Portland
Flyer near Rock Springs. Feb. ..
Carlisle was brought to Rawlins and

wise one. Congress may yet nullify the vote by refusing to pass a law making Alaska dry. The government bas been running Alaska: al, a loss % long it is naturally anxious to make good the deficit, and the liquor H. censes yield no small sum. The final decision is left to the members of Congress, and while it is highly prob able they will ratify the vote, there is a bare possibility that economic reasons will prevent them fror. doing so.
 But in any case. it now IL oks as if the United States is going to make a thorough tryout of prohibition. That is inevitable, and, being inevitable, it is folly-it is worse than folly to try to block the wheels.

VALDEZ has a matrimonial bn- reau. To be sure it pays a license to do business under another name, but developments have shown that 1t is a real, progressive matrimonial bu- reau, with many marriages to its credit. This organization is incor- porated under the name of the Prince William Sound, Light, Power. and Telephone Company, and 1t is the telephone department of this big con- pany that is responsible for many marriages in Valdez. Whether tend ing switchboard and keeping track of budding courtships awakens tender passions in the human breast has nev- CT been studied by psychologists, but the fact remains that such is the case, and so annoying has Cupid become in that vicinity, that Manager Quinn is considering offering bonus for operators remaining on the job long CT than six months. To be sure. MT. Quinn has exercised poor judgment in his choice of operators and filled the shop with niaideEs of great charm but hereafter he declares he will pick only old maids with cross eyes and red hair, false teeth and a wen on their nose. This may work, but a girl with any attractiveness what .ver has little chance to escape the matrimonial moose in Valdez, on ac- count of the great scarcity of eligible girls and the hungry craving of the average Alaskan for home where he can have hot biscuit and pie three times a day.

IF tax on bachelors is ever voted on this country, Valdez will come in for more than her share of paying the tax. An official enumeration of the names of the marriageable men of this city might precipitate a riot in the maleless portions of Europe, therefore we deem it unwise to pub fish them, but after the war we look for a flood of female immigration re sembling the old times of '9S. And the crying shame of the whole mat ter is that all these men would make Al husbands, being sound in wind and limb, and guaranteed to stand the matrimonial halter without shy ing.

A WASTE OF ENERGY.

Those who are bent upon resisting the nationwide movement for prohi- bition, in the light of recent events, are simply wasting their energies.
 There is not the slightest doubt that the principle of prohibition has possessed a great majority of the vo- ters and converts by the hundreds of thousands are being made annually.
 Already twenty-tkree states, nearly half the states in the Union, have declared strongly their opposition to the liquor traffic, and in a number of other states local option has closed the saloons in all but few of the cities and larger towns. The wet" spot in the United States is remark ably small and is growing smaller with each succeeding year.
 It is utterly useless for those who are engaged in the liquor traffic, or for those who favor the traffic. to in- sist that prohibition means confisca- tion. It does mean confiscation, but public sentiment has so crystallized against the traffic that it is no longer feasible to appeal to .old-time busi- ness principles as an argument against prohibition. The majority has reached the conclusion that there are other reasons more thoroughly justifying non-observance of the principle of personal liberty and these are relied upon when arguments are advanced such as are resorted to 0y the anti-prohibitionists today.
 The urging of the destruction of the liquor traffic from moral and hygienic necessity is so strong that all else falls before it.
 Those who predicted a few years ago that the United States would pro- hibit the manufacture and sale of intoxlcating liquors within ten years are, iii large numbers, now convinced that prohibition will be fact in less than five years. Every state that be- comes dry does so permanently. This is largely because many thousands who resisted prohibition are, when they see the large majority for it, willing to cease their fight and give it trial.
 The vote of the people of the Ter ritory of Alaska against tte liquor traffic was a surprise in many ways, as economic conditions and a scanty population made it necessary to raise revenues from the liquor traffic. It was believed that the money arising from the sale of licenses was neces- sary to keep our schools going. The people decreed otherwise, and time alone can tell if their decision was

MUCH OF BOOZE
 LEAKED FEN ROUTE

Only part of the liquor brought over from Anchorage to be sold here will go under the hammer of the auc tioneer. The rest has leaked, says the Seward Post.
 Rough handling on the barge when it was loaded at Anchorage and more rough handling when 1t was unload ed here is held responsible for nu- merous broken bottles.
 When the liquor was seized at Pt. Campbell it had all been taken from the original crates and for shipment here was crated without being wrap ped securely.
 Marshal Evans says that the barge crew was evidently severely affected by the fumes of such of the liquor as leaked out of the broken bottles as they were in various stages of hilar- ity or inability when they landed the consignment.
 The shipment received does not tally with the one sent from Anchor |age. According to the shipping re. Ceipt there should have been PIT par cells of liquor, "A of which were beer and the rest whiskey.. The shipment received included 12 cases of beer and totaled 21S parcels. Some of the crates contained nothing but broken bottles.
 Men who saw the liquor when it was first landed at Anchorage after being seized state that it has under zone a remarkable shrinkage the pile landed on the dock here occupying about half the space necessary for the goods originally seized.

One Of the most popular ways OF cur
ing meats ON the farm Is by picking

trouble than rubbing I'm salt by the
dry curing method. The brine is also
considered a greater protection against
insects and verlnin. Brine made of

reasonable length of time. During
warm weather, however. brine should
be watched closely. and II 1t becomes
