When Chairman Adams of the Republican Ma tonal Committee. and Chairman Hull of the Demo- cratic National Committee set forth their claims of sweeping victories be achieved by their respective parties the rapidly approaching elections they are finding an audience that has failed up to political subjects this year in anything like the degree normally experienced When MT. Hull, for instance, works up a thriller entitled Democrats to Sweep Country and Reutrn Majorites in Both Houses for some reason or other the old flavor is lacking And when MT Adams counters with feature 'Won- derful Record of Republican Congress Insures Tr-

WHY THE UNEASINESS?

Communications being received by ,arious legisla- tive candidates in all sections of Alaska from hn- official prohibition organizations indicate expecta- tion that effort will be subrfitfa referen- dun question the Alaska Bone Dry Law to the people of the Territory the 1924 election, and some unecsiness the possible the Leg islature There is probably nothing prevent the Legislature from submitting the question of repeating the law popular vote but the result, whatever it might be, would amount to nothing more than expression of opinion. Even though every person in Alaska should approve the repeal of the law, which is not possible Territorial Legislature is power less to pass an act of that and could only memorabilia Congress asking for repeating, act and instruct the Delegate to Congress to work for it.
 But why the uneasiness? Prohibition workers both official and unofficial claim to know that the majority of Alaskans strongly in favor of the rttehticn of the Alaskan Bcne Dry Law as well as

If 1t Fits

Among the well known lies we so often hear is 'Oh, had forgotten all about your owing me that five. /"
 Since the advent of tho motor car not so many Sunday evening services are disturbed by the smart alecks. Those birds are too busy now trying to beat trains over the crossing to go to church and the fool killer is taking care of them.
 The only thing harder than putting the watch he has taken apart, to- gethcr again for the average man to do is to please the wife of his bosom.''
 A specialist tells us red-headed people are not so subject to badness, but he doesn't say anything about those whom they marry.
 No one can say any more cutting remarks than wife who has to tell the husband, who eats with his knife, few things about etiquette.
 Nothing spoils a girls life more than having the fellow she turned down marry a prettier girl who is making him happy.
 It surely will be a great relief to a lot of the girls who have broom sticks for legs to get the skeletons back under cover again.
 It is getting so that a man just can't keep a wife much longer than he can a cook.
 The quickest way to cure the dear ladies of all desire to smoke is to pass around the campaign cigars the candidates now are handing out.
 There is plenty of welded bliss during the first quarter of the honey moon.
 Before marriage a girl tells man he is king of her heart, but after they have been married while he begins to realize just how little kings amount to these days.
 And then there is that other bird who thinks being the slave to the sweetest girl in the world is all he could ask to make this life a little heaven and then begin to kick as soon as she gets the yoke on him. .. At that we guess lot of people who reach ripe old age have a rotten time with nothing to do but wait for the Grim Reaper. Money does not grow on trees, but since the advent of silk hosiery you find lot of it on the girls limbs.

Both men bet tered the worlds record for 100 miles, and both with five other pilots. exceeded the former mark for 200 kilometres.
 More interesting than these bare figures are the personal accounts of their experiences given by participants Both Vaughan and Maitland report having lost consciousness momentary in round- ing the pyons that marked the turns surely a dangerous thing at such time. "On the Gank- ter Point turn the fourth lap of my flight said Maughan .'I whirled into unconsciouness for three four seconds.
