VALDEZ HAS HAD NO FIRE
 SINCE DECEMBER 27. 19l7

Valdez has had no fire requiring a run by the fire department since De cember 27, 1917, when Kenny Rr dolph's dwelling in Happy Court call ed out the department. This is an uu- precedented record and we believ4 , that it is the best of any town in the territory. The department is in exec lent shape, a quantity of new hose having been purchased the past year, and other supplies added. The equip ment comprises one steam fire engine, one hand brake fire engine, one large chemical enrine and several smaller chemicals, and a hook and ladder cart and several hose carts, ladders, etc.
 The city has an electrical system of gcngs running to all parts of town and the large bell at the firehall is al. so rung by electricity. The outfit is the most complete of any in Alaska and represents large sum of none 7.

Then, think it would be- an excellent idea for someone from Ha,-SU to get in personal touch wi,a all of the normal schools of Californ'a, Oregon and Washington. At preSer, We are in communication with only a few of those in California.
 Al present, grammar school teach crS in Hawaii are paid a minimum of S6o2 a year, with regular annual in. crca>cs for five years, when max. mum of over Sl.OOO k reached.

SHIP NOW
WET PLACES IN
 UNITED STATES
 AFTER JULY 1

WASHINGTON, D. C. March 3l -
 There will be forty t4O) places in the |. $. A. where one may legally get drink after July I. Even the national prohibition amendment, in effect a year hence, will not dry thcrn up.
 Thrty-ninc C39) of these place are in Washington. One CD is in New York
 They are the embassies and iega. tionS of foreign countries. All are in Washington except the Paraguayaa legation. which iS apartment 1878 in .he Woolworth building, New York.
 Embassies and legations are in effect bits of foreign soil and are not subject to our domestic legislation, says HanniS Taylor, noted jurist on international law, who was miniStc! 70 Spain during the Cleveland and Me. kinley administrations.
 When l was minister to Spain | could have cut the throats of the queen had she visited the embassy, and could not have been prosecuted under international law unless my country saw fit to waive that right.
 "If it is true that embassies will b. exempt from the prohibition law said F.. C. Dinwiddie, directing Anti Saloon League activities in Washing ton, "I expect they will take advau- tage of that fact in an unobstrusive way. They could with propriety vio- late the laws of our constitution open ly. It would hardly be a diplomatic thing for the diplomats to do.
 If they did, however, do not think they would be molcsted in any way"
 Senator Shepard, father of the dry amendment was not disposed to agree with Mir. Dinwiddle.
 While l know that criminal laws of country do no cover embassies, surely" he stated, they could hc reached by some sort of police regu- lation."
 The inference to be drawn from the senator's statement is that while he believes man could not be pro- secuted for committing a murder in an embassy or legation, he could be arrested for taking a drink.

VOTING LIGHT
IN PRIMARIES
FOR DELEGATES

Despite eleventh hour attempts to
arouse the voters only a normal
special election vote was cast today
in the Republican primaries for a
delegate to the state constitutional
convention. The Democratic lallot
was little used, a the party's only
candidate, William r. Moore of Mo-
line, was unopposed for nomination.
Polls close at o'clock and owing
to the short ballots, returns should
be tabulated by, the election judges
in record time. While considerable
interest has been developed in the
down district counties, Mercer and
Henderson, during the closing days
of the campaign, the vote in Rock
Island county, especially in the
cities of Rock Island and Moline,
is expected TO be the decisive factor
in determin; the winners.
Returns will be received tonight
by The Argus and bulletined in the
window. Arrangements have been
made to secure the results from
Mercer and Henderson counties, as
well as for obtaining a speedy
tabulation in this county.

STALLED CROWDS
Is WHY REGISTER
TAKEN OFF CARS

Blockading Of the rear vestibuIe
and the slow service necessary in
making change is given today by
]. G. Huntoon, vice president and
general manager of the Tri-City
Railway company. as reasons for
the removal of cash catchers from
street cars on the Illinois side.
Mr.. Huntoon stated that the cash
registers were only installed as an
experiment. Since it has been
proved a failure, both as an incon-
venience to the conductors and to
street car patrons, they have been
abolished.
The fare box is still in usage in
Davenport and will be until the Z
cent street car fare goes into eff
feet. Then if at that time, Mr..
Huntoon says, they prove the in
convenience that they did on the
Illinois lines. the boxes will be re-
moved.

now impending.

day faced a session of minor i'm

readiness OF committees to report

CARPENTERS SAY
BUILDERS TAKE
WRONG POSITION

Exception is taken by tri-city
carpenters TO the statement issued
yesterday by the Quad-City Build
ers' association through its secre-
tary, E J. Burns, that the chief
grievance Of the tri-city carpenters
was the refusal Of the contractors
TO NEE. the demands OF the men
that they purchase only union ma
terial.
THAT point was thrown ont -
the dispute some time ago" said F
A. Kendall, member of the arhi-
tration board for the carpenters to-
day. THE carpenters agreed that
the contractors might buy their
materials from open as we'll as
unionized shops. The only stipu-
lation made was THAT materials
should not be secured from shops
that had been placed on the 'un-
fair list. There are only two OF
these in the tri-cities.
