 PRICE SUGAR

SEATTLE, June II (by Associated Press).-The high price of sugar is due to profiteering, in the opinion of Rudolph Spreckles.

SEATTLE TRADE WITH ALASKA
 WILL DECLINE;

During the recent investigation of the Alaska situation by committee sent out by the interior department, the interesting private information was received in certain buisness quar- ters that the former territorial ship ping plan has ben practically turned over to the U. s. Shipping Board and that board in turn has plans to at tempt to divert part of the Alaska trade to San Francisco by the allO- cation of ships.
 This of course, was to be expected, but it may not be generally known that for many months previously a we'll developed plan has been thought out in San Francisco covering gener- ally attempt to capture this trade largely for the benefit of the whole sale grocery and supply houses. Late last year James Wiskersham, who has a grievance against certain Alas kans and also certain Seattle citizens, wrote lengthy letter to Julius Kahn, a California representative in con- gress. This letter at great length pointed out the opportunity for San Francisco to control the Alaska coal output and advocated a steamship line from this port. Quoting from James Wickersham's letter:
 q send you these documents pur- suant to my recent conversation WlFh you. in which I tried to persuade you that San Francisco ought to make an active study of the coal situation in Alaska, and of the future trade re- lations herewith. I urge this upon YOU for these reasons: First, your oil s1,nnly VIII not furnish you with the necessary fuel for all purposes after a few years second you need large quantities of coal in San Francisco even if your oil supply shall never fail: third, your trade relations be- tween San Francisco and Alaska can be built up on the coal trade better than in any other way; fourth, Seat tie does not want Alaskan coal; she has pletny of coal in her own state and will never buy Alaskan coal.
 Seattle has grown to be a great city out of the resources of AlasKa' but the day is coming when her trade will entirely decline, because the backbone of the Alaska trade here after will be intimately associated with the development of her coal fields which are of no interest to Seattle. Let me make it clear to you that Seattle does not want Alaska coal"
 This probably explains in part why the shipping board will take over the territorial shipping plan and why an attempt will be made to again divert trade from Seattle. However, there is no chance that anything will be done this year toward establish ment of steamship source. The plan is to start it with the spring rush ot 1921 and Seattle merchants are quiet ly laying their plans to hold their share of the trade.-Railway and Ma rine News.

This second-story golfer came in
under DOGGY and went out under
Doodle. AS he left the course several
society men heard a voice cry: "Fore!"
Investigation on the part Of the
sleuths who were detailed to help to
fail in recovering the gems revealed
that the "Fore" crack was made by
the club cuckoo clock 1t was either
counting the hour or referring to the
number of votes the League of Ma
lions may get if two ballot-heavers
cast their plasters twice in the same
joint.
Certain detectives say that Ralph
is the same bird who stepped up the
Caruso stairs and collected half mil
lion apples's worth of Koh-I-Noors and
sent them south for the summer in
stead of the winter Washington
hadn't heard of this turn of events,
but denied it anyway. Government
officers Immediately denied the farm
ers Federal Bank credit and cut down
liquor licenses for thirty-day periods,
saying nothing about the 365 nights.
When Ralph-thelPowder was told
in school that an ancient dame pointed
to her children and proclaimed.
'"These are my Jewels" he asked the
teacher if that was the beginning of
kidnapping. It is fortunate a certain
monkey didn't see Ralph before he
visualized the King of Greece. The
biting would have begun much ear
lier than it did.
Ralph is angry because he didn't
have chance to get the jewels of Mrs.
John D. Spreckels, Jr., before that
social leader lost her gems. When
Ralph was informed that Mrs. Spreck-
els sparklers were worth 1880
pounds sterling, he muttered:
"How could 1 carry 'em away, amt
no elephant"
1t was Ralph who pasted warning
in front of one clubhouse on the night
of a dinner dance:
GAIL We who enter here leave all
Hope diamonds on the dressing table"
An ardent follower of politics and
ponies, Ralph was asked which way he
would vote. He said:

The attention Of the public is being
drawn more and more to the subject Of
burglaries. The reason, no doubt, is
that the election is but few furlongs
this side Of the epidemic stage.
Insurance underwriters and second
story overworkers have decreed that
jewels may be worn by the best fami-
lies, but warn them to fear for the
worst. Necklaces should be chained
to built-in bookcases and diamond
tiaras should be welded to the steam
radiator on retiring.
Ralph-the- Prowler, who has been in
more exclusive clubs than Chauncey
Depew ever heard of (albeit not in the
same way, has polished new steeple-
jack set and is tuning up his alpine
equipment for busy winter in scaling
clubhouse portico columns.
AS a social climber Ralph is an ath-
lete with a record, both athletic and
penal He is non-rheumatic and is
as nimble as home brew. When he
gets flying mare hold on clubhouse
pillar no landlord can dispossess him.
1t is probably that the robbery of
the Sleepy Hollow Country Club re-
Gently was the work of Ralph. If he
didn't figure in the game of Bureau
polo, coping some 100000 worth of
gems, then the copyright laws have
been violated When asked about
Sleepy Hollow as an Autumn resi-
dence, he said:
ssWash Irving named the place in
honor of the head of George III. and
not for the bean of Lloyd George, as
is popularity supposed When l got
through the joint was more hollow
than sleepy"
The official time Of Ralph's event
on the Country Club portico has not
been certified by the Amateur Ath-
letic Union. It is understood that he
will be classed as a professional on
the ground that he got past the door
keeper without presenting affidavits as
to his ancestry and his ability to putt
correctly.

There is no chance, no destiny, no

Gifts count for nothing; will alone is

All things give way before it, soon

What obstacle can stay the mighty
force
Of the sea-seeking river in it's

Or cause the ascending orb of day to
wait?
Each well-born soul must win what it
deserves;
Let the fool pirate of luck. The for

swerves,
Whose slightest action of inaction
serves
The one great aim. Why even Death
stands still,
And waits an hour, sometimes, for
such a will.
