Bay State Man Named.

Gov. Calvin Coolidge Of Massachu-
setts was picked as running mate"
for Senator Warren G. Harding in
short order. It was one spot where
the convention acted spontaneously.
The delegates, relieved of the strain Of
listening for bandwagons put Coolidge
up for vice president without any
management" being perceptible in the
process. Four candidates were put in
the field, but the Massachusetts, man,
who was reelected last November aft
ter his vigorous action in the Boston
police strike by the largest plurality
known in New England, made almost
a one man parade of it.
The ballot as announced:
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1920-06-17

Coolidge's vote was the same as that
rolled up by Harding for president.
Or, rather, to be precise, it was exact
ly twO-fifths of a vote smaller.
Thus the governor of the old Bay
state, nominated by a man from the
Pacific slope, landed in second place
on the ticket by the simple process Of
letting nature take its course in the
convention. Spontaneity is the right
word.

The choice Of Senator Harding was

SKATING ON THIN ICE

In reporting meeting held in Ketchikan on the night of Oct. 19 by Senator Dan A. Sutherland the Ketchikan Chronicle says:
 He (Mr. Sutherland) de-
 clared that the law was not
 being inforced properly in the
 first division, and openly charg-
 ed that deputy marshalS had
 been guilty of selling liquor in
 competition with bootleggers.n
 Is Mi. Sutherland in earnest about this, or has he been misquot- ed? If quoted correctly, enough has been said in this one short sen tence to defeat his political aspira- tions in Alaska.
 Mir. Sutherland is asking the peo- ple of Alaska to elevate him to their highest elective office; yet, eff correctly quoted,) he here brings charges oR a criminal nature against officers of the law from a public platform instead of in the courts.
 If he has such evidence in his possession is he showing the mnt| of good citizenship by withholding it?
 The Grand Jury has been in ses- sion for some time. Why has Mir. Sutherland not laid his evidence before it?
 There are eleven deputy mar shals in the first division. The re- mark quoted above throws suspi- cion npon every one of them.
 Is it fair to the innocent for MT, Sutherland to shield the guilty by withholding their names?

On August 17 the twenty-fourth anniversary of the discover of gold on the Klondihe was celt0r&ted at DaNs j. ui,,,er the auspices of the Yukon Order of Pioneers. The oc- caslon was rendered remarkable by the fact that it coincided with the arrival of four aeroplanes on theis flight from New York to Nome. After all, there are things more wonderful than finding gold, even an quantity equal to kings ran- som, says Mining and Sci, 'i"c Press. In 1896, when the ,quu~- man, George Carmack, stumbled upon the alluvial gold of Bonanza creek, the automobile was just con- ing into use. Flying ceased to be an eccentricity thirteen years later. What difference aviation would have made to the Klondike rush of 1898! Undoubtedly if the discov- cry of rich gold plasers were to be announced today from any r. note or inaccessible corner of the earth, the7e would be none of the painful ly laborious pilgrimage of former times, such as that which broke the heart and health of hu ldreds of

PROHIBITION IN
 ARGENTINA FINDS SOME OPPOSITION

Buenos Aires, Aug. 19-President Irigoyen's administration has just announced through Finance Minister Salaberry that it will oppose the pro- hibition bill recently introduced into . the Chamber of Deputies. Neverthe- less. an official move in favor of the restriction of the liquor traffic is seen in the terms of the reciprocal com merciar travellers treaty recently agreed upon between United States Ambassador Stimson and the Presi- dent.
 This treaty, which will probably be drawn up and signed in Washington during Ambassador Stimson's visit there on leave, will provide for a sin gle Federal license for American salesmen in Argentina, instead of li- censes for each province, but will exclude ther1 from selling alcoholic beverages under it. The prohibitive clause was requested s by President Irigoyen, it is learned It was accept ed by the United States government notwfthstandirS the fact that no such clause appears in other commercial travellers treaties negotiated by the United States. The American policy of uniformity for treaties of this sort has thus been waived in favor of Argentina.
 Since alcoholic liquors can no i, longer be legally exported from the United States, American salesmen naturally will not be affected by the clause, but it's significance lies with Argentina in that it establishes a pre- cedent in the direction of prohibition. It is pointed out that if this treaty with the United States is ratified, other nations who may desire also to, negotiate a treaty with Argentina prov iding for a single Federal sales mans license would, by virtue of this precedent, have to accept a similar u. clause against the sale of intoxicating liquors. Otherwise their salesmen must continue to pay a separate li- cense in each of the IA provinces. These vary and run as high as a thousand pesos.
 While President Irigoyen is known ;to be strongly in sympathy with re- stricting the liquor traffic, 1t is said, that he feels that Argentina is not yet ready for total prohibition One tentire province, Mendoza, thrives upon the wine industry, and the use of lightative wines, especially in the rural districts is almost general.
 The introduction of the prohibition measure in Congress was followed by a strong protest from the Mendoza wine growers. They were told by Minister Salaberry that, though he had not consulted President Irigoyen on the subject, he could assure them that the executive power of the na- --fion will not approve this reform, and If 1t is necessary, will oppose against 1t all the legal resources upon which , it can lay hand" Meanwhile the wine growers have organized a "junket'' or Congressman to the wine growing district to show the import hnce of riss industry to Arxentina-

Sugar Down To Is
 CentS Within A Week

Washington, Aug. 20.-Retribu- ton is coming apparently to many big sugar dealers who a few months ago were fattening their bank ac- counts from the abnormally high sugar prices. The very prices that they created are in large part re- sponsfble for their losses.
 Within a week. when prices have dropped from 23. 24 and 25 cents pound to 1o. IT and IS. certain deal: CTS have lost tens of thousands and perhaps hundreds of thousands of dollars of their former profits. The end is not yet. Today one of the largest concerns in the country to meet competitors planned to put sugar on the market at IS cents.
 It would not be surprising if prices dropped to even lower levels before they stabilize. Prospects are gloomy for those with large supplies, who are wondering how they will get through the next week or two without impair ment of credit and actual collapse. Efforts to keep the situation quiet in order not to disturb bank credits have failed. According to present in dications, the concern that can unload before there is an actual stampede fares the best chance of escaping un- hurt.
 A miscalculation about the effects of prohibition really started the break. A contrioutory cause is the haste of sugar dealers all over the world to rush their supplies here to get the benefit of high prices. Many of these foreign supplies have already landed or are en route. They come from Brazil, Peru, Argentina, China, and even from Africa. none of which kIro r market here in years past
 Big candy and soft drinks manu- lecturers and spectators calculated last summer and fall that Nation wide prohibition would create a de- rnand for candies and soft drinks never before known in this country, according to inside information just obtained, and gobbled up available sugar supplies. Then for weeks this past spring ,grocers informed the average individual therew as no sugar to be had. Refiners took advantage of the demand to boost prices. until they reached as high as 23 and 30 cents pound.
 This summer candy and soft drink manufacturers were awakened to the fact that the public had not gone as crazy over candy as anticipated. Ac- cordingly they began to unload. In cidentally 1t develops that a small sized war Is being waged between the refiners and their patrons. the out come of which is surrounded with uhcertainty.
 )cvjy
 Another circumstance that makes it difficult to halt the downward eom- petitive slide now is the approach Of the best sugar yield. which will sup ply large quantities available Tor Western states. This is expected to cut down the Eastern refineries mar ket and bring an even sharper com petitive stage.
 For some time the sugar market has been on the verge of wayering. Efforts to secure credit are reported to have met with failure in many instances. Now the situation makes credit harder than ever to obtain. \ The reported poor weather condi- tions for next years crop may be one !. ray of light to sugar men, in that it holds hope of shorter production for next year.
