Message Confuses Washington.


Washington, D. C. - Paris news dis
patches announcing that Vice Admiral
Long of the American navy had gone
to Constantinople to direct possible
"naval operations" were not understood
in official circles here, where it was
indicated that participation of Am
erican warships in any demonstration
against the Turks was not part of the
present American policy toward the
Near Eastern situation.
At the Navy Department it was said
that so far as the Washington govern
ment had been advised, Admiral Long
was on board his flagship, the Utah,
either at Lisbon or on the way to Glib
raltar, where he is due on October 3rd.
He has planned to go to Constanti-
nople later, however, but only for OBJ
serving condition and cooperating with
Rear Admiral Bristol in relief work.
The State Department likewise was
without official notification of any
change in previous plans regarding the
disposition of American warships in
European waters and it was said that
the policy of this gt}ernment to con-
fine it's Near Eastern activities to re-
lief measures remainlI unaltered.
Under present circumstances officials
here foresee no likelihood that Ameri-
can forces will be used for other than
relief purposes unless it become neces-
sary to land blue jackets or marines to
guard American lives and property.
Even that possibility apparently is
looked upon as remote.

TODAY's QUESTION.

Do you think that prohibition has
done any good? ~
ANSWERS:
w. K. H., Lyman avenue, coremaker.
Yes, prohibition has done good to a
certain extent. You can go down tho
street now without seeing person who.
is intoxicated staggering past. It's a
step toward Kidding the world of the
use of alcohol and is one of the best
things that the United States ever did
for humanity.
j. Goldstein, English court.-No,
don't believe that it has done bit of
good in the form that it is at present.
To derive the most benefit from prohi-
bition, the law should be changed.
Whiskey and saloons should be abol-
ished, but a man should be able to get
a glass of good beer. 1t could be sold
in stores that handle soft drinks. In
its present form, it is none too good
for the United States.
F. Wight, 1922 Fremont avenue, tailor
Apprenticeship surely has done world
of good. 1t tends to make the men, and
possibly women, better citizens. Bet
ter homes and larger bank accounts are
direct result of prohibition. 1t is
the best thing that has ever been done
by the government of the United States
outside of the slavery act.
Fred Huebner, $50 Park street, book
keeper.-Prohibition has done abso-
lutely no good. Men who drank before
are still drinking, and others who
never touched drop of liquor are
turning to it. 1t has made lawbreakers
of some of the best citizens of our
country. 1t would be good thing for
humanity if beer and light wines were
permitted.

Whites Announcement Short.
The formal announcement of White
of his Independent candidacy is short

feat him in the primaries. In his state
ment he says:
ITO the voters of Kenosha county,
In view of the fact that more than one
thousand voters of Kenosha county
Rave signed petitions urging me to run
as an Independent candidate for the
office of sheriff, and in view of the
further fact that certain candidate

White, 469 Wisconsin street"
Disappointment to Republicans.
1t is admitted that the announcement
of Mr.. White is disappointment to
the leaders of the Republican party
and that many of these leaders had
urged against an Independent candida
cy. Fourteen sheriffs were elected in
Wisconsin last year as Independent
candidates" Mr.. White said in explain
ing his action this morning. "My
friends have been insistent that I get
back into the race for the November
elections and they have promised me
such cordial support that I do not see
how can refuse to accept their call"
White and Fred Pabst, who was the
nominee of the Republican party at the
primaries, had one of the closest races
on the primary ticket and it was
thought that after the primary votes
had been counted that the contest was
at an end. Independent candidates will
have until twenty days before the cleo
ton to file petitions with the county
clerk.

IF ALASKA SHOULD BE DIVIDED

If Alaska is going to be cut in two the de velopment of the Territory seems to suggest that the proper line of division should De thaC which separates the country naturally tr1ou- tarv to the Alaska Railroad on the one hand and the Copper River and Northwestern Ra1l- 7oad and the coast end of the richardson Hiohvav on the other hand. Lines of trade and communication in Alaska lead toward the Outside, There is more travel and traffic be- +voon Cordova and Prince William Sound and Sontb Eastern Alaska than between those ,,lacos and the country that lies west of them With the Alaska Railway in operation that will applv further The Copper River coun- try will be in closer communication ana ac- o71aintance with Southeastern Alaska than with the Tanana and Yukon Valleys, and the line of communication between that portion ol the Yukon valley in the vicinity of Eagle ana the Fortymile district lead up stream and to Southeastern Alaska, rather than to the Alas ka Railroad. --t~@ ~~A
 Therefore if Alaska should be divided It should be along the lines suggested. We could have East Alaska and West Alaska East Al as]za could start with three or four counties with County Seats at Ketchikan, Juneau Cordova, and perhaps Eagle. Later, as the country developed, more counties could be ere ated
 If Alaska is to be divided such division at that outlined here would give each of the Ter 1itorics sufficient era and natural resources for state, and when Territory IS created it is with the idea of eventually erecting it into State There is no state west of the Mis- souri River with as small an era as has South eastern Alaskan aone,-Jmeau Empire.

NO CONTEMPORARIES HERE

There is no country on the face of the globe where the conventonalities and social amenl- ties are so little cared for as in Alaska. The day laborer's wife meets with the bankers wife, if she is an Alaskan, is interested ln her neighbors and their families, even though they have little of the thing Shakespeare calls trash. A long time ago, probably ln the tgo9- lodyte period, one cave dWeller had one more thigh bone of the woody rhinoceros than had her neighbours wife, and having little tact and no education, it swelled her up consider ably
 This was the birth of the thing they call society; responsible for more degredation and more misery than Eve's curiosity and more bitter to those outside the pale than the wat CTS of Angustura.
 The primitive settlers of Alaska were too few to draw lines of social caste, consequent ly they were happy and contented with their lot. A dietary of beans to provide the vitam- ines and bacon for their proteids, proteoses and peptones was sufficient for their daily fare, and their nearest approach to society, was staged when they went to town, and met the ''Blondined Kid'' or "Skagway Nell" at the dance halls The man with the poke was the most popular with the lady named Lou, and all was merry and joy was unconfined.

DEMOCRATIC SENATORS ENGAGED IN
 FILIBUSTER

The Democratic minority in the United Sta tes is engaged in deliberate filibuster to pre- vent the Senate majority from passing tariff law in accordance with the Republican plat form pledge to the people,
 In restoring to dilatory tactics the Demo cratic senators are resisting majority opinion not only in the Senate but among the voters of the country, who, by about a two-thirds vote put into power a party pledged to the protective policy.
 Senator Simmons, of North Carlonia, com pelled the reading aloud by the Senate clerks of the 440-page tariff bill, printed copy of which was in the hands of senators, and which is to be taken up item by item. This was palp- ably for the purpose of procuring delay in consideration of the measure. Minority sena- tors are making long speeches., dilatory mo- lions and indulging in other obstructive tac- tics,-all for the purpose of preventing the enactment of tariff law by the Senate major ity.
 There has already been far too much delay in the Senate in the formulation of tariff measure. For many months, following the prompt passage by the House of a tariff law in accordance with Republican platform pledge ten months ago, the matter has dragged along in the upper house of Congress. Now there is to be as much more delay as obstructive tac- ties can make possible to the Senate Demo crats
 The existence of rules which prevent legis, lation by majority and sanction such farci- cal proceedings as mere talking and maneuver- ing for delay by members of legislative body paid by the people to legislate and not fiji buster against majority rule, is @ reproach to the Senate. Any system whereby a minority can prevent majority from egislating with in reasonable time, represents tyranny and special privilege entirely out of harmony with Republican institutions. "~'~
 If the Senate minority continues to talk against time and to resort to all sorts of in sincere expedients to prevent progress in con- of the tariff bill it will be the duty of the Senate majority to apply cloture and transact business. The interests of a hundred million Americans ought not be sacrificed in order to enable Democratic senators to pre- vent government from functioning, and to en- able alien interests and importers to flourish through the destruction of American industry and employment.
