DRYS TO MAKE REAL
CAMPAIGN THIS YEAR
ACTIVE PROHIBITION LEADERS
COMPLETING FINAL ARRANGE
MENTS FOR CANVASS.

CHICAGO, Tll.-The active lead
ers of the prohibition party are com
pleting the final arrangements for 6
campaign that is expected to demon
strate to the people of the entire
country that the party with the camel
as its insignia is henceforth to be
reckoned with as factor in national
and state politics. The campaign
will be nationwide in its scope and
will be conducted along lines that
the experience of the older parties
has shown to be most conducive to
success at the polls. Tons of cam
paign literature will be scattered
from the Atlantic to the Pacific and a
corps of able stump-speakers will
penetrate to every nook and corner
of the land.
With funds already subscribed the
campaign leaders plan to operate a
special presidential train through
strategic" territory. There will be
intensive campaigning in Michigan,
Illinois, Ohio and Indiana. Special
movements are also being prepared
in Montana, Idaho, Missouri, Califor-
mia, Nebraska and South Dakota, in
which constitutional prohibition
amendments are pending. In Wash
ington, Oregon and Arkansas the
prohibitionists will be especially
alert, as in these states the liquor
interests are attempting, through ref
erendum elections, to break down
the regulatory or prohibitory laws.
The problem is to hold territory al
ready gained and add new.
The efforts of the prohibitionists
will be distributed generously among
issues, state and national, as an eff
fort will be made to encourage the
candidates. of prohibitionists ambi-
tious to enter congress.
In the opinion of the party lead
ers the prohibitionists enter the
campaign this year under peculiarly
promising conditions. There is, first,
a general sentiment in favor of reg
ulation-if not destruction-of the
whole liquor traffic. Second, there
are movements in several states
looking toward prohibition. Third,
an enormous increase in the number
of women voters inspires the hope
that the prohibitionists can attract
considerable body. The effort to
attract the votes of the women is
made in the belief that women gen.
orally are inclined to support tenn
perance or prohibition regardless of
other political persuasions,
Financial prospects, moreover,
are extra naly encouraging. Graft
flying progress already is being made
in the efforts to raise a campaign
fund of a quarter of a million dol
lars or more. The managers realize
that it costs a tremendous amount
of money to run a national campaign
but they are confident sufficient
funds will be Forthcoming to carry
out their plans. These plans call for
the maintenance in this city until
election day of an extensive publicity
office, from which campaign argu-
ments will be sent. This office will
also operate as headquarters for
1000 or more workers throughout
the national field.

J. M. WALKER DROWNED
IN TANK OF GASOLINE
Florida Man Meets Death in Most
Unusual Manner.

THOMASVILLE.-To be drown
ed in tank of gasolene was the un-
usual fate of Joel M. Walker, agent
in Monticello, Fla, for the Standard
Oil Co., a few days ago. Mr.. Walk
er, it is supposed, was taking the
measurement of the tank when he
fell in and was drowned. The tank
was an 5000 gallon one and it would
have been impossible for anyone to
get out alone. It was some hours
before he was missed, and when
found had been dead some time.

MEDICAL ADVICE NOW GIVEN BY

VIENNA, Feb. 26. - So few doctors are left in Vienna that professional consultations over the telephone have become very numerous. Instead of calling 10 doctor to the house, many people now seek his advice over the telephone, especially in cases where the patient has already been exam ined. The Vienna Medical Associa- tion reminds the public of a legal de cision. rendered some years ago, that such conversations are to be regarded as medical consultations, and paid for accordingly.

of flying machines, save in the nov ing picture shows, and it will be a
 great day for them when the real ar ticle comes along. Alaska is going ahead with giant strides, but the first aviator has yet to make his debut in the northland. If some of them want to tackle the mail game, so much the
 better for those who would not leave Alaska if they could, and for those
 who would leave if they could, at least for a visit, but who are handicapped
 by lack of the proper and commonly accepted medium of exchange.-Ex.

DANGER IF AERO MAIL SERVICE
 IN ALASKA

It will likely be some time yet be fore flying machines are employed to carry mail in Alaska, according to the comment of old-timers.
 Their belief is not based upon the fact that an air mail route is impos- sible, but that the cost will make it impracticable for some time to come.
 For instance" said a sourdough yesterday, "an aeroplane in carrying the mail from Valdez or Cordova to Fairbanks would first have to estab- fish bases. Next it would have to be- come used to the wind currents.
 "One can easily imagine what would happen to any kind of flying machine were it caught in the blows which sweep the Copper river flats or down Keystone canyon or the Big Delta river. While it is true these winds may be local and the aviator might TlS6 dDON6 tHtin, tuClO NO"lu DS W casions when he might be forced to make landing when the wind was al it's worst Then, too, the winds, if any, of the upper air would have to be charted and it will likely require some very costly experiments and pos sible loss of fife before a regular air mail route can be established from the coast to Fairbanks.
 Prom Fairbanks down the Panama and Yukon rivers on the other hand, it would be plain sailing. There eli matic conditions are more equable, with less violent disturbances, and landings could be made with very lit tie trouble"
 If an air route is practicable it would seem that one from Juneau to Sitka might prove attractive to some of the secondhand aviators who can not longer get big prices for making exhibition flights. The government now pays $18,OOO year for the mail contract, and this ought to keep an aviator in meal tickets for a season or so.
 There are many people residing in Alaska who have never seen any kind

The flagship Alaska will make her initial trip to southwestern Alaska as a passenger boat on Tuesday evening next, when she sails from Seattle.

 A shelter deck has been built the entire length of the vessel, and ac- commodations provided for an addi tional hundred and sixty passengers in two-berth staterooms. A cold stor- age plant capable of caring for fifty tons of freight has been constructed. A smoking and observation room, sim liar to that of the Alameda and other vessels of the company, has been built aft on the upper deck.

GRAND AMERICAN HANDICAP
The Greatest Trapshooting Event Of
the Year, Won with Winchester
Repeater" Shells.

The Grand American Handicap, the
trapshooting classic, equivalent to the
Worlds Series in Baseball, the highest
honor the world has to bestow In trap
shooting, the event that marks the eli
max in the trapshooter's career, was
won by Capt. ]. f. Wulf, of Milwau-
kee, with the wonderful score Of 99x100
from the 19-yard mark. In making this
great win he shot Winchester IRE
peater" loaded shells.
The National Amateur Champion
ship was won by F. NJ. Troeh, Of the
State of Washington. Mr.. Troeh also
took second place for National Anna
teur Championship at Doubles. He al
so won the Mound City Overture, and
the General Average on all targets, and
General Average on 16-yard targets
In winning all these events, Mr.. Troeh
used Winchester repeating shotgun.
The Women's National Champion
ship, the first event of the kind ever
staged at Grand American Handicap,
was won by Mrs. J. d. Dalton, of War
saw, Indiana, with q Winchester re-
peating shotgun.
The Dunspaugh Trophy, emblematic
of the Professional Championship, was
won by Phil r. Miller with Winches-
ter repeating shotgun.
The Hercules All-round Amateur
Championship was won by Edw. l..
Bartlett, of Baltimore, with Winehes-
ter loaded shells. This was a hard
match to win, as it called for so singles
at 10, 20, % yards, respectively, and %
doubles at 16 yards.
This was great cleanup for Win
chester guns and shells and a demon
stration of their wonderful shooting
qualities.
