EDITOR MOONEY
 IN CLARENDON
The Clarendon Live Wires En- joy a Feast of Reason-a Flow of Soul as the Great Journalist Talks to Them at Tuesday Nights
 Dinner.

Another one of those splen- did Get Together Dinners" in Clarendon, on Tuesday night, and it was the delightful one of the year.
 It was held in Lynch's Big Store and given by the Claren- don Profitable Farming Organi- zatiOn.
 Editor c. P. J. Mooney of the Commercial Appeal was the guest of honor and the Speaker as well.
 A dinner was prepared and served by the Clarendon ladies and this added much to it's merriment.
 Chairman w. l.. Jeffries was at the head of the table and after the Havanas were passed cleverly introduced MT. Moon- ey.
 Editor Mooney was in fine fettle and he gave our Claren- don friends a great message that will not soon be forgotten. MT. Mooney referred of his ride thro' the Clarendon farming territory Tuesday afternoon and said to the Clarendon boosters, You ought to be grateful to God Almighty that you live in such a country and county. You have a magnifi- cent little city" and here he hesitated and in his own clever, witty way, 'I mean a fine pros pect" and the ClarendOnites took the cue and gave him a round of laughter and ap- plause.
 MT. Mooney then delved into the problems of the day, taking up the worlds peace confer ence and the affairs of life now bearing down on humanity for a solution.
 MT. Mooney gave an intima- tion of the thoughts in the minds of the great thinkers of the world when he said that no one knew what the outcome was going to be of the present conditions, peace treaty, etc. We are hoping there'n be no more wars but this we do not know. The only hope of the world is the League of Nations, so unselfishly strived for by our President, Woodrow Wilson. Germany may decide that she is defeated and keep peace but the sore spot of the universe is the Balkans, and we can tell what will be the outcome"
 Swinging back from Europe to Monroe county the Speaker reminded those present most forcibly and fearlessly, yet with it all politely, that each citizen had a part to play in this new order of reconstruction, and that making money wasn't the whole thing. Profitable farming and profitable living counts. To our country and our own lives as well by pulling to- gether-cO-OpefatlOn came III for a strong arm blow by the Speaker and he reminded those present that their success de- pended on how well they did their part in an unselfish man. ner.
 About the best speech of the night, other than MT. Mooney, was that of Farmer June Day- dson of Holly Grove, when he home in his usual ,lever way. Davidson is the Monroe county farmer who

ALASKA TO BE REPRESENTED
 AT HEARINGS
Governor, Attorney-Gener- al and Representatives of Fish Commission Will at-
 tend Seattle Heafing

Gov. Thomas Riggs Jr., chairman Charles D. Garfield, member of the commission and it's secretary, Super intendent of Hatcheries A. R. Sprague, Attorney General J. c. Mur- phy and H. R. Paykull of Douglas, representing the Alaska Fish and Game Club, will leave on the Prin- attend the Alaska fisheries hearings cess Mary tomorrow for Seattle to which will be held by the Bureau of Fisheries at that place November 20 to November 25. Gov. Riggs and Attorney General Murphy will also investigate matters in connection in which the Territorial Shipping Board is interested
 The Territorial Fish Commission representatives will attend the fish cries hearings more to watch pro ceedings and give information than to participate in the formulating of a legislative program. It was the purpose of the Territorial 4Commis- sion to hold a convention in Juneau late in November or early in Decsan-
 berAat which delegates, represeptins the fishermen, the packers and the general public from all the inter ested sections of Alaska ~AvbuId sTBe present to prepare and suggest legis- Atsoa sx1ei the fisheries quest4on; Whiae the lan to holdsssuch a con' ventfon has, not been abandonedss ii was postponed on account of the is-
 suance of notice by H. M. Smith, head of the Bureau of Fisheries, for the Seattle hearings. This notice
 came at a time when it would not have been possible to have issued the cali, made the arrangements and held the convention in time for it to have provided for representation at the fisheries hearings at Seattle, There. fore 1t was decided to have Alaska we'll represented at the fisheries hearings and then after the hearings should end to decide upon the ques- ton as to whether or not there shall be an Alaskan fisheries convention at Juneau to consider needed fisher ies legislation.
 Gov. Riggs and Attorney General Murphy will confer with Maurice D, Leehey and R. M. Semmcs, special counsel and expert, respectively, of the commission. They have gathered
 great deal of data and prepared conclusions on tho situation, which will be considered at the Seattle con ference.
 All those going to attend the fish cries hearings and the shipping con ference will return to Juneau imme- diately after tho completion Of the work

BRITISH FINANCES
 PROVE A PROBLEM

LONDON, Nov. 5.-The Chancel- Tor of the Exchequer. Austen Cham berlain, has laid before Parliament a white paper, in which he gives his proposals for making up the na- tional balance sheet in normal years.
 The Chancellor declares that the expenditures for the fiscal year 1919 20 will reach 1,642,295,o00 pounds while the revenue will attain l. 6S,650,000 pounds. Thus the de- ficit on this years budget will amount to 573,645,00o pounds.
 The chancellor stated that Great Britain would owe the United States at the end of March, 1920. a total at par of exchange of 842,000.000 pounds, while the amount the Al lied Governments would owe to Great Britain on the same date is estimated at 1.741,0O0,O0O pounds.

REV. M'QUEEN
 RETURNS FROM
 SEWARD VISIT
While There Helped to In. stall Rev. Carter-Says Business Men There
 Much Encouraged

Rev. J. T. Mcqueen, superintendent of Alaska missions of the Methodist church, has returned from a trip te the westward, visiting Cordova, Val deg and Seward, in the interest o1 the missionary work of the M. E church.
 Just recently was sent in Rev. D E. Carter for Seward, who was in stalled in his work there.
 Our church," said Rev. Mcqueen Ifs much encouraged at Seward. Rev Carter seems to be the man for the place and we are pleased with the outlook there"
 One of the peculiar features of the work there was that the church dit not have a member as the war took all of the members away, but with the appearance of Rev. Carter on the scene the people rallied at once te the support of the church.
 The people of Seward gave Rev Mcqueen and Rev. Carter recep tion last Saturday night.
 'The town, as A whole" said Rev Mcqueen, seems very much encour aged over the fact that the navy is to send ninen at once to build biz dock for handling naval coal. Busi ness men sssay..thst their business. j' now better than 1t has been for sev eraE months. ss
 One festnre df the church. Aait Rew McQdeSn, s"which enphasfzes the swork there is the fact that Sew ard has one of the best choirs ir Alaska The local musicians there have. talent far above the average.
 The exodus on account of the war cut into the membership of tho church of Alaska and in some in stances nearly depopulated them Seward was hard hit, but one mem Der left when Rev. Carter came te the field. People are returning now and the congregations are increasing

asked her to pose aboard fishing schooner.
 q am not a movie actress" she protested. Nevertheless, she walked across the sliny pavement of the fish mart and stepped nimbly, aboard the boat, assisted by policeman and . fisherman
 Several pictures were taken. Then the grizzled captain of the boat was posed beside Lady Astor and she i'm proved the opportunity while the cameras were clicking by asking the Captain: Will you vote for me?' He readily nodded assent.
 Gross your heart" insisted Lady Astor, and the sailor complied
 The labor candidate, w. T. Gay and his Liberal opponent, Isaac Foot have indicated that Lady Astor's Am erican birth, the possession of wealth the fact that she is a woman, and her attitude regarding prohibition arc points upon which her candidacy will be attacked.
