REPORT SHORTAGE OF SALMON
Catch in Alaskan Waters This Season
Is Said to Be Disappointing
Canneries Closed Down.

Reports from Alaska are to the effect
that the salmon catch is disappOint-
ing Even these places on the Alas
kan coast which have been most sue
ceSsful comparatively speaking, have
secured less than the usual pack,
while some of the largest canneries
have practically nothing to show as
q result of the seasons operations
so far. While the season has not yet
closed, several of the principal Alas
kan canneries have ceased operations
One large canning concern with a
capacity of $4,000 cases secured $500
and was then obliged to close down
for lack of fish.
The Rivers Inlet and Frazier River
packs are also said to be exceedingly
light this year.
Naturally, this means that the
canned salmon supply will be the
smallest for many years.

GOT SPIRIT OF THE THING
After Watching Men Give Up Their
Seats in Car, He Offers His
Place.

The Broad Ripple car was crowded,
as usual. AS women boarded the car
the polite and gallant men got up and
permitted them to have seats. A man,
his wife and little son, about five years
old, got on the car. The attractive
looking mother was given a seat and
she took her son on her lap.
AS the car went along, the boy con-
verSed in a loud tone. He spoke Of
the condition of the road bed, of the
length of his trousers, of how long it
would be until they got there, and
so on.
Finally so many men had given up
their places that several of them were
standing in the car aisle The little
boy seemed to think it was wrong for
him to have a comfortable on his
mothers lap while so many men were
standing. Finally he sung out in a
voice that could be heard throughout
the car:
Somebody can have my seat" he
shouted IndianapOlis News.

When big human problem gets on the

money they must suit the people.
In Eugene Walters THE Challenge" one

the Labor Bolshevik-Socialist problem set
forth for our amusement and edification.
The question Is presented in strictly con-

conventional than the church. We see the
Rich dressed as per usual in silk hats and
head walters uniforms, and uttering the
customary disgust at the laborites because
they are dirty. disloya cruel and ignorant
also we have the typical Bolshevik, ranting
at the wealthy because they are thieves
and tyrants and all other things bad.
Each side is given its innings. The fierce
Socialist makes his long speeches. and the
naughty and aristocratic Holbrook Blinn re-
plies with remarks fully as extended.
They get nowhere.
