Position Of the President.

1t is evident that up until the day
the constitutional amendment shall be-
come effective the president of the
United States will be importuned to
lift the ban. His desk for weeks has
been piled high with petitions, asking
him TO give the interests that hold
large stocks of liquors enough time
to dispose of their holdings. But the
presidents attitude all along has been
that he could not come to the relief of
the men and concerns that were petit
tioning him so long as the peace treaty
remained unratified by the senate. The
fight against prohibition win go IN,
The wet interests are attacking the
legality of the constitutional amend
ment in the courts and within thS next
few months they win get decision
from the Supreme court. 1t would be
unwise, as well as foolish, to attempt
to predict what the Supreme court will
say with respect to the constitutional
amendment. but since 1t upheld the
legality of wartime prohibition the sup
porters of the constitutional amend
ment have no doubt, so they say, that
the court will hold that the amend
ment was properly adopted.

BIG REDUCTION PLANT FOR LATOUCHE ISLAND

The Ladysmith Shelter company, British Columbia, which has taken over the Barrack copper property on Latoucha island, Alaska, and which has done and now is doing exten- sive development work on the claims, plans to install a big re- duction plant at that point this com ing summer, according to reliable information. The Barrack claim ad- joins the claims of the famous La touche Beatson company, now con- trolled by the Guggenheim syndi- cate, which have, been among the most consistent producers of copper in the Northern territory. Develop ment work on the Barrack claims indicates that the same ledge which extends through the Beatson mine also extends through the Barrack claims. Hence the proposed in stallation of big stamp mill to re- duce the ore to concentrates, which will be shipped to the States for final treatment.

COMMON LABOR DEMAND
 IN MONTANA BALANCES

HELENA, Mont.-For the first time since 1915, the common labor supply may equal the demand in Montana this year, according to re- ports gathered by state officials through commercial clubs of the state. If crops are unusually heavy there may be slight deficit, but normal crops will leave enough men for road work, railway labor and similar employment, without draw ing on extra-state sources, it is said. For four years the demand has far exceeded the supply.

Death Of Mr.. Daniel Schwem.

There are not many friends left of
the olden time to mourn the death of
Mr.. Schwem. A few who knew him
in the strength Of his manhood have
long deplored the fact that In his
last years he was almost helpless,
having suffered an attack of para
lysis about twenty-five years ago
which left him an invalid. With great
patience and fortitude, however, he
continued to live out his days as
best he could. He was tenderly car
ed for by children and their children
and had much to brighten his sha-
doWed life. Neighbors will miss him
as they pass the Vann home, where
he sat day after day on the porch
responsive to greetings and himself
giving work of cheer very often.
His mind was always active and up
to the last moment of his long life
Of SO years, he recognized his beloy-
ed children about him. He had
made his home with his daughter,
Mrs. Corinne Vann, upon whom the
shadow of death rests most heavily.
Beside Mrs. Vann, Mr.. Schwem
leaves two daughters-Mrs. VIM.
Turnbough and Miss Daisy and FIVE
sons, Messrs. William, Henry, Dan,
Lonnie and Oscar.
Mr.. Schwem came to Brookhaven
in 1852. He established his name
as a synonym for rugged honesty,
and he was loyal and true to every
responsibility. He bore sorrow and
afflietion and disappointment with
an heroic spirit and persevered real
izing as he once expressed his men
tai attitude, There is nothing to
do but to go on
shore. of time when there was moth
ing to do but to go on from the finite
to the Infinite, and he went calmly
and willingly to where the rest that
remaineth for the people of God has
brought the peace that passeth un-
derstanding.
The weather was so untoward on
Thursday that the funeral was de-
ferred until yesterday at two o'clock
and was held at the Vann residence,
DR.. ]. A. Taylor, pastor of the Bap-
tist Church officiating, in the pres
ence of sympathizing friends of the
bereaved. The body was inferred be-
side the wife who preceded the dead
to the tomb many years ago. Beauti-
full flowers covered the last resting
place breathing sweetly of
The coming of the morning
On that bright and cloudless day,
When the shadows shall have lifted
And the clouds have rolled away.

In Memory of Bro. Jno. Weber
Died Jan. IS, 1920.

A precious oAe from us is gone
A voice we love is stilled.
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filed.
Soft and bright the stars are shining
On lonely grave,
Where lies the one we love so dearly
Whom we tried so hard but could
not save.
Darling Brother, you shall never be
forgotten,
Never from our memory fade;
Loving hearts will always linger,
Around the grave where you are
laid.
When day dawns how we miss you
When night falls, dear, we're sad;
But, Oh! how dreams console us
when they are of you.
God in His wisdom hath recalled the
beloved he has given,
Tho on earth his body lies, his soul
is safe in Heaven.
Safe in the arms of Jesus
Safe from corroding care
Safe from the worlds temptations,
: No sin can find him there.
Greatly missed by his sister.
