Eieven Iong years did they dig be
fore they found the silver. And
they sunk much money and many
hopes before they got back much OF
either. For they digged n year upon
one level. and made galleries TO the
right hand and to the left. Then did
they sink the mine deeper ard run
galleries likewise. And then did
they dig In other directions.
And when, at the end OF eleven
years, their money having been we'll
nigh spent. they found silver. then
did they go back and try To discover
why they had missed II before. And
they found that some OF their dig
Ring had been upon the wrong level.
and some of II had been In the wrong
direction.
But one OF their tunnels had been
on tho right level and In the right
direction. And they went back to
Il. and drilled yet again, and put In
two or three good blasts. and 10, tho
silver was there also.
And they rockoncd how long be-
fore they had wrought there and
they found that Il had been five
years. And they measured the rock
that had separated them from the
silver when they abandoned that
tunnel. and It was only five cublts.
Now. II they had had additional
faith as u grain OF mustard seed and
n few sticks Of dynamite, they might
have removed that mountain and be
gun TO collect dividends five years
sooner.
And | considered when they told
me this how many men there be who
halt five cubits IN the hithcr side OF
success. when one more blast and a
little moro faith would bring them
their hearts desire.
And I say unto all men who labor
In a righteous cause not to be weary
IN well doing, for the reward Il Ia

who stoppeth five cubits this side oi

III is repealed the demand upon every responsible officer that he assist
in enforcing the law will steadily increase.
The action by the city officials of Las Vegas is a fine example
of respect for law. Prohibition enforcement Officers, with 1220OO
square miles of territory to cover with a limited force, could not go
TO Las Vegas Immediately to investigate and stop law violations.
Mayor Blood found himself armed with ample law and authority to
do the work with the officers under his direction. lie has set about
doing il. Every citizen Of Las Vegas will respect the mayor for his
stand, no matter what individual opinions may be as to the wisdom
or unwisdom of prohibition law.

 The story on which the award was based was the famous interview obtained by Mr. Seibold from then President Wilson, published in the New York World on June 1S 1920. The story came at time when the entire world filled with various rumors re- garding the Presidents mental and physical condi- ton. It of the most intimate pen pictures of any prominent public man ever written and it was the only interview of its nature that given by MT. Wilson during his eight years residence in the White House
 " Mr. sebold is the third World man to win the reporters prize of the Pulitzer awards. Previous win ners were Herbert Bayard Swope, executive edi-
 tor of the World, for articles on Germany during the which attracted international attention and John J. Leary the Worlds expert on industrial and labor conditions for exposing conditions in the West Vir- ginia coal fields.

ADMINISTRATION IS PUZZLED.

From Washington word comes that the Harding administration frankly is puzzled about Alaska. Not puzzled the real conditions that exist here Not lacking conviction that the Territory is in need of development and that the administrators own policies must changed from the old order of things. But it doesn't know just what to believe about the cause of the conditions that prevail.
 So many tales have been told, many conflict ing stories brought to Washington by this and that one, persons not residents of Alaska and by who claim residence in the Territory that the officials of the administration said not to know who and what to believe. Jack Underwood in the Seattle Times explains the matter in this wise:
 Apart from the difference of opinion and the lack of coordnated knowledge that results because of the impossibility and immense of the Territory tain office seekers, and others who have selfish pur poses of their in view, have helped to confuse the situation"
 MT. Underwood also states that there is ele- ment charging that all of Alaskas troubles have their in water transportation which it is all 1eged is monopolized and that freight rates horbitant He also states: The coast rates have been investigated times out of number by the Inter- state Commerce Commission and the United States Shipping Board and have been found be able But the heavy cost of transportation Interior points is used argument for the establishment of a Government steamship line It is a misrepre- sentation of the facts and the extent to which mis- representation of facts about Alaska is carried Washington is almost incredible"
 Recent despatches from Washington indicate that the administration intends to get at the bottom of the charges made. The report that Secretary Fall has announced that thorough investigation will be made of charges of exploitation Alaskan riches by private interests in connection with transportation companies indicates that the Administration is de- termined to ascertain for itself whether not those making the charges have misrepresenting facts about Alaska.
 It is true that there have been numerous nvest- gations of Alaskan conditions before now. Most of them however, have been forgotten little be pointed to today result of them Most Of them have left off where they should have begun in Seattle. An investigation of Aaskans affairs and "a study of it's problems cannot be made either in Seattle or in Washington. There is only place to do that kind of work and that is right on the ground in Alaska
 Any investigation ordered by Secretary Fall should take place in the Territory. The Investigating body Should not be limited in either time or authority, or in any other material respect To do so would defeat its object and simply add the already huge mass of documents compiled by former committees and commissions which lie forgotten in the archives of the Washington governmental departments

(Cincinnati Ennuirer.l !


 Paraphrasing the celebrated advice given to Croesus not to count any happy until his death Americans should not glorfy any policy of Govern ment until it has vindicated itself by complete opera tion. Such thing is the proposal to make the Pan- Canal free to ships owned in the United States while collecting tolls from all others.
 It has attractive form-at least it had a year ago-and its sentiment is compelling upon first in specton. Now 1t appears that gthere is a decided opposition to putting this plan into effect Not, i'm deed, does the objection might reasonably suppose, from the foreign shipmasters. Its seat is in the Middle West, and the objectors those Eastern markets.
 Discovery has been made that with refrigerator ships, passing through Panama free, coast shippers have enormous advantage those inland in laying down fruit and other pershable stuffs at points along the Atlantic Seaboard It is of the question: so the arises to think of competing by rail unless the rates cut tremendously, thing now largely visionary. Hence the demand upon Con- gress, backed by representatives of the majority party that this promise of the politicians last be ig nored and the proposal unduly to favor the Occi- dental Slope be abandoned.
 Well worth while is the watching of this contest between quarters which the cutting of the isthmian way has caused to be begun. Canadian ships already couver, B. C.. vit the canal direct to London and preparations under way divert the rail ship ments of other freight from East to West to tide waters In these things found justifcations of the long and fercely fought opposition of Hunting ton and other Pacific Slope railway kings and their allies the owners of the transconinenta lines, to the building of any canal across the isthmus. They foresaw what is happening today, and their pro- phecies being fulfilled

Luke Mcluke Says

Even when the babies he used to know get married and have babes of their own, a man hates to admit that he is getting old.
 Even after a man sees how much harness his wife wears he is willing to believe that the other fellows wife has her own natural figure.
 If woman looks like 40, guess her age at 20 and tell her she doesn't look it, and you'll win yourself a home.
 Perhaps the strongest argumen, against the Bolsheviki is the Bolshe- wiki.
 Another Damli: Once upon time there was woman who wasn't al ways telling her husband that man doesn't know what it is to be sick
 If you want man to tell the world what Cheap Skate you are. give him something for nothing.
 A man can fool the rest of the world with regard to his brain eff. ciency. But he can't fool his wife.
 In almost every home the Illus band breaches Economy and the Wife practices it.
 Of course this will make the wo- men snort But this country con tains too many women who are so busy looking after other women's children that they haven't time to look after their own.
 Why don't all the bores in this country get together and hold an elimination contest and talk one an other to death until there is only one left?
 Babies do not cut their teeth. They cut their gums. But there IS no use trying to tell this to an old-fashionea woman who has raised dozen babies.

What has happened now is return toward normal conditions. Henceforth, commodities may be expected to fuctuate in obedience to the influences of specific supply and de- mand.
 Many prices have stabilized. This does not mean that there will not be further declines They may be expected in many lines and commodities which have not yet been adjusted will receive no support from others that have reached stable footing. In their decline, they will not force down commodities in which defation has aireaoy occurred.

GENERAL DECLINE IN COMMODITIES
 ENDED,

Recent increases in the wholesale prices of cer tain commodities do not indicate a new period o rising values, in the opinion of Herbert P Howell Vice President off the National Bank of Commerce il New York They do, however, show that the vioen end. Many individual commodities will show con eral movemen has reached level at which manu facturers may do business on the basis of their owl requirements irrespective of the market prices O unrelated commodities
 Of the twenty-six representative commo- dties quoted monthly by the National Bank of Commerce in New York in its maga- zine, Comerce Monthly, MT. Howell points out, sixteen showed increases in May over the preceding month while four stood still
 and only six continued to declina
 These increases must not be construed as indicating period of rising prices Some of them. are seasonal in character and others reflect tendency toward stabza- tion the part of commodities which in the general decline that began in the spring of 1920 may have fallen below a fair valuation The increases important, however, be- cause they demonstrate that the process of liquidation has reached a point where raw materials beginning to react to condi- tions in their individual markets.
 Normally the price movement of every commodity is determined primarily by the status of its market and that of com modtties immediately related to it.. Only in boom periods during violent depressons are prices affected by the general movement than by these individual factors.
