THE PASSING OF THE CORWIN

The passing of the Corwin is an event which for Nomeites possesses more than a mere passing interest That old craft has been so closely identified with the happy period of Spring and all it's joys, that its me mory is a thing of beauty in the minds eye would take a poet aptly to apostrophize.
 Who may deny the potency to re- vive the dropping spirit of the win terwearied residents of this commu- nifty the distant smoke of the distant steamer possessed? Who may ques- tion the odoriferous pleasures oi the Corwin egg? What grocer but will search in vain for substitute title to apply to the uncandled hen fruit that has gathered upon his hands throughout the winter? Who may recall without a pang of pleas ure. so to say, the arrival of the Corwin mail-the Corwin passeng- CTS the first chechacoes of the sea- son that loomed up full of hope

THE GLORIES OF PEACE.

Remarkably enough it's to sol. dier that we owe having public at tention directed to the glories Of peace. And a major-general he is no less.
 Quite recently Major General Cor. gas. the man who had the job oi maintaining health on tho Cana Zone and the highest medical officer in the United States army said:
 The preventable mortality in. tins country is greater than the mortal. ity caused by tho European war Science knows that the chief cause of disease is poverty; that disease can never be eliminated so long as people live poorly and close to- gether". 4
 So far we have heard of none oi the politicians making stump speeches anent preparedness to eli minate the cause of pacific mortal ity. There's no munitionist money in that, and a whole lot are better dead than alive any way.

STILL UNCONFIRMED.

The fight against Brandois is gett' ing tiresome. What tho Wall Street Journal called the criminal blund- CT" of President Wilson is still un- confirmed by the Senate. To allow radical Jew upon the Supreme Bench seems the height of iniquity Especially is the iniquity heightened when a Taft is available. That Is why the "crime" of Wilson is SC poignant It is all right to appoint ultra reactionaries, rule of reason men, who will usurp legislative powers, but to permit radical Jew to become a member of the most powerful and unrestrained body on earth seems intolerable.
 A socialist in city council is no, so very objectionable; socialist in the House of Representatives would be tolerable; a socialist in the Senate would be objectionable but bearable-but radical who is not even socialist may not sit upon the Supreme bench. That is re- served for the servants of plutocracy And the privileged classes full well understand where the real power oI the country lies.

WHY THERE ARE GANGSTERS.

When milk drivers went on strike in New York, Frank Capalory, Benny Cohen, William Carlih. strong arm men and gangsters hired by the milk companies were each fined ten dollars for beating up strikers. They were "all men of the gorilla type", a menace to the peace of New York. prominent in politics. useful in strikes and all with crim- ical records They were typical gangsters.
 People often wonder why these gangsters killing police. private citi- zens and beating up both; thieves, crooks, murderers and feIons are tolerated when the enforcement of police orders could wipe them off the map in two days. Yet they are seldom prosecuted; seldom arrested unless when they trespass upon the protected higher-ups and make themselves a nuisance as in the Rosenthal murder. Here's the req son. They are the soldiers of capl- tai and part of the capitalists pre- parationist scheme. They are im- mune, these men "of the gorilla type. That's why there are gang stars

 Thereupon officials had their cases brought before the Grand Jury anu they were indicted for a ''conspl- racy to retard and obstruct the pass. age of the mails. 1t was admitted that they exercised neither intimida tion nor threats, not even any form of moral suasion.

 The State Journal vigorously pro- tested. It said in part: eff the government of the United States In the civil service has the right ana the power to compel it's employees to continue their services under these circumstances and, upon. the contention set up in this case. whether the employees will or no. then private interests and private employers have the same power ? It surely would appear so.
 Moreover if the government can make a man work against his will and jail him if he quits, what i2 slavery?
 Moreover and in addition and furthermore this is the Kind 0! socialism that Victor Berger an. any amount of government owner ship socialists would foist upon the people.
 Concluded the State Journal: As a champion of our free institutions of the liberty which has been the gift of the fathers and preserved by the immortal deeds of Washington of Jefferson and of Lincoln, The State Journal protests. Protests? But protests break nc chains and open no prison doors.

In the Family.

Uncle Henry married my fathers
cousin. They lived alone in a great
house, which had the most dismal Ii
brary in the whole wide world. 1t was
all black walnut, lined with books
with dull leather backs and uninter-
esting titles. Over the shelves, against
a border of black velvet, were rows of
marble statuettes that came from Eu-
rope.
There were two invalid chairs with
big wheels, although neither Uncle
Henry nor Aunt Ella were really in
valids, and in one corner of the room
was a Swiss music box that played
lugubrious airs. Finally Uncle Henry
died, and then Aunt Ella, and all the
property had to be divided.
Aunt Ella had always worn a large
black cameo likeness of Uncle Henry,
which had been cut in Rome. 1t was
set as a brooch and was surrounded
with rather large sized diamonds and
was an object of most sacred venera-
ton to US all. We felt that 1t should
go-as the greatest treasure of ALTO
the niece with Uncle Henry's name.
Can you imagine our feelings when
she had it made into a belt buckle?-

KENNY'S
DEBT
Tragic Tale of the Rough JUS
tice of a Mining Camp.
By WALTER DUNCAN
Copyright by Frank A. Munsey c

The theory Of Kenny's defense was
that Blick was first to draw. Clearly
silent, rugged men who formed a semi
circle In front of Frisco's saloon,
Against Kenny's word was his reputa-
tion-in the mining camp he was
known for a bad man, quick on the
draw and quicker on the trigger-and
there had been bad blood between the
dead man and him who now stood In
the center of the semicircle.
II In those days the laws of hat out
of the way place, such as were defined,
were administered summarily with lit
tie dignity and less ceremony justice
was the quicker for it. Seldom was its
aim at fault, and it seldom If ever
hung fire.
Blick's stiffening form. lying face
downward on the hillside where it had
dropped when Kenny's gun had spat
had been exposed to the sun less than
an hour before Kenny was called upon
by the vigilance committee to explain
He and Bick had ridden into the hills
together. Kenny had returned home
alone.
They found Kenny down at Frisco's
Boldly and with a show Of unconcern
he began his version, while the men OF
the v. @. closed In and formed the semi
circle around him.
Big and forbidding, Bill John Mickle
stood In the doorway, cutting off the
one avenue Of retreat. Bill John had
presided al master of ceremonies on
more than III previous occasion OF
this kind.
HE tried to kill me-" Kenny told
them. 81 had to kill him."
But, looking from n rugged face
into another and reading their silent
verdict, the accused lost his self conf.
dence, and In the desperation with
which a stag held at bay fights fol-
life Kenny strove to convince the ST
lent, unbelieving men of the truth of
his words.
There was no one to champion his
cause. The men of the V. @. did
things at first ~hand-every man to his
own defense. Determined to maintain
at least a semblance of law and order,
they had found it necessary to take the
law into their own hands, sometimes
to sacrifice human life to make human
life the more secure. They did it I'M

Kenny had had his warning. A week
ago he had seen these lei form a
semicircle and pass judgment on Sam
Carter, he whose gun had parked
when some one here at Frisco's pluck
ed a fifth ace from the gamblers
sleeve. Before his man was cold Car
ter's legs were dangling three feet from
the ground and his body swayed from
a taut hemp rope.
So Kenny, remembering Sam Car,
ter's fate and searching the grim faces
that walled him in for the encourage
ment he did not find, trembled.
HE tried to kill me-" he repeated
slowly.
Silently one after another slowly
shook their heads. They knew Blick
for a man of peace. And they knew
Kenny. His record nullified his words
