ROY JONES, PIONEER

Yesterday marked the beginning of new epoch in Ketchikan-the aerial transportation epoch.
 When Roy Jones landed his seapane in Ton pass Narrows in front of town he pointed the way to overcoming some of the difficulties of the district, and particularly the, difficulty of slow transportation. While it is true that his seaplane is a small one and that it will not serve to handle freight or any number of passengers at one time, it will demonstrate the feasibility of much larger machines-and for his pioneer work he is entitled to the sup port of Ketchikan.
 The landing of the seaplane in the bay yes terday, of itself means little. Historically it is of interest in that it is the first air craft of any, kind to make a landing in Ketchlkan. But it's important feature is that 1t marks the beginning of new era, for air transportation is going to play very important part in the development of Southeastern Alaska.
 The very nature of the country IS such that railroads will not play an important part for years to come. Shipping will always play an important part but for rapid transportation if will he necessary to turn to the air and air craft.
 Only last night, after the arrival of the ma chine, an attorney talked of wanting to use it to go for {. witness needed. An official talked of returning to his post in the seaplane Sever al sportsmen planned on going for an outing to go fishing Each of these estimated that 1t would take him a day to go by boat while he could cover the desired ground in an hour or a little more by air. These but demonstrate a few of the possibilities.
 This seaplane will be followed by others some of them large affairs such as they now use between London and Paris. Accident may delay this progress temporarily. but not for long as the March of Progress demands th@n use.
 And Roy Jones, pioneer, is entitled to all the credit in the world for his pluclIT under Itaking.-Ketchkan Chronicle.

JUST A SUGGESTION

There was time when the public schools or Alaska were practically maintained on money derived from the licensing of the sale of liquor, saloon licenses, to use language that all will understand In those days violations of the liouor laws were corrected by Federal officials the same as they are today.
 But Alaska's Bone Dry law put the saloons out of business and later the Eighteenth Am endment reinforced what had already been done by Alaska and, there being no saloons to pay license, the schools were required to look to other sources for their money and the Ter ritoral legislature came nobly to the rescue and all was we'll.
 So long as the fisheries of the Territory were putting up capacity packs each year there was no cause for worry as to where taxes for maintaining the schools as well as other Territorial institutions would come from. But the saloon pack falling off year after year, the Territorial treasury has been gradually depleted until 1t now looks as though the schools and Pioneers Home are about the on- ly institutions Alaska will be able to maintain in the future unless some other system for arising money is devised.
 Now, violations of the Territorial and Fed eral liquor laws are still being corrected by Federal officers the same as they were when the Territory was the beneficiary of saloon licenses. Why then should not the money now being collected in fines from liquor violations be turned over to the Territorial treasury to aid in the maintenance of Territorial institu- tions instead. of going into the coffers of the Federal government?
 Should such an unfortunate thing come about as the passage by Congress of the fish bill introduced by Congressman White of Maine and advocated and recommended by the Sutherland-Paul alliance, even the public schools and Pioneers Home would be threat ened with curtaiment of their usefulness for without money neither can be maintained and without something on which to levy tax no money will be forthcoming.
 The matter of the Territory going after the money obtained from liquor law violations is worthy of consideration and action as the Ter ritory can truthfully say she needs it in her business.-Stroller's Weekly

Chief Justice Taft, a great reader, was discussing books at a dinner party in Washington:
 "This high-brown talk about style " he said, "amuses men. Style usually means affection. The best writers have no style. It's as if they were talking to you.
 "Stylists are always looking for trouble. One of them entered a drug store the other day and asked for a mans comb.
 "Do you want narrow man S comb?" said the attendant.
 "The stylist gave disgusted laugh.
 "No,' he said, T want comb for stout man with rubber teeth"

WHY NOT ADVERTISE ALAsKA's FOOD
 FISH

In considering what could be done for AL aska from which immediate results would be obtained why not give thought to an adver- Using campaign of the food value of the Ter ritory's seafood products? One of Alaska $ greatest needs is market for her fish.
 A few years ago California raisen and other fruit growers could not market nearly the whole of their products That portion of the crop that was disposed of at all was sold at prices which allowed of no profit The grow CTS organized and expended $100000 and up wards a year in advertising throughout the country. In an incredibly short time demand was produced that made a market for the en- tire product at a price which has produced millions in profits and growth and prestige for California.
 That it would be better for the health of American people if they would eat more fish is declared by those who have made a study of such matters. It would be an easy matter to secure compelling facts that would create a ready market for all the fish that Alaska could produce. ~

The only real test OF sentiment
on the 2.75 per cent beer issue this
year was in Ohio, where the proposal
was defeated by more than 10000.
In Illinois the organized, dry forces
did not vote either way on the beer
proposal.
The defeat of the codes ia Mas
sachusetts and California is no loss
BECAUSE we never had any enforce
ment codes in those states"
Both the vets and the drys, are
preparing for fight in the new con
gress.
"Wcts" See Favorable Outlook
Mr.. Hickley declared the outlook
was, extremely favorable for the
carrying out of the preliminary. -"
program OF his organization and
other Of the leaders of the "wets"
entertained a similar view.
Just what the program of attack
on the NOistead law will he has not
yet been fully developed, but il is
expected 20 be a straight out prOpos-
ition for the sale of light wines and
beer. That proposal was put for
ward in connection with the soldiers
bonus bill at the last session, but it
never received seriouS consideration
Representative Britten. of Illinois,
announced today, however. that it
would be renewed.
Treasury and other officers looked
for proposals to modify the enforce
ment act. Treasury officials. how
ever, said the policy of strict enforce
ment would continue until congress
acted.
Unless the question actually comes
up in congress it was indicated that
little concern would be given at the
treasury to the possible source OF
revenue, which might be developed
from taxes on beer and wine. Esti-
mates along this line probably will
be called for early. however. as
some of the more pronounced of the
liberals have laid particular stress
on this element in their arguments
in spirit of Volstead act amendment.

BOTH VETS ANO ORYs
CLAIM VICTORY IN ELECTION
Already Lines Are Being Drawn
To Bring Back Light Wines
and Beer.

washington, NOV. J.-lne pOllu-
cal complexion OF the next congress
definitely having been established,
interest turned today on the proba-
BILE lineup on the question of moditi-
cation of the prohibition enforce
ment laws. Both the ''drys" and
''wets" were claiming victory as Il
result of Tuesdays elections.
For in AntiSaloon league, Wayne
b. Wheeler. counsel, said the vets
would not have as many votes, By
three at least, in the senate, as here
tofore, and that their strength in
the house would not exceed 140 or
seventy-eight less than a majority.
On the other hand the Association
Against the Prohibition Amendment,
through g. C. Hinckley its secretary
claimed a gain of eighty liberal"
votes in the house, which it was as
serted, would give actual control, OF
that body to the modifcationists.
"The pronounced increase in the
wet membership" said Mr.. Hinck-
ley's statement, ''renders highly
probable the passage of liberal lesis-
lstion in the next session of congress
that will strike the first blow at the
more stringent provision of the
Vo'stead act.
"Wct' Leaders
Involved in this view, is a con-
sideration of the change in head ships
of the powerful committees IN the
house. The defeat of Andrew j.
Volstead, of Minnesota, removes the
author of the Objectionable prohibit
ton amendment from the chairman
ship of the house judiciary commit
tee, giving the place over to Repre-
sentative Graham, of Pennsylvania,
an avowed wet
"The passing of Mondell leaves
the majority leadership on the floor
either to Representative Longworth,
of Ohio, or Representative Mann, OF
Illinois, both reelected, and both
having been endorsed by the associa-
tion because of their attitude OF the
prohibition issue"
Mr.. Hickey said the house leader
ship would be in the hands OF
liberal and that this might be ex-
pected to influence materially the
vote on any future, liberal" legis-
lation.
Also he was of the opinion that
the result in Tuesdays election
would have its effect on members
who hitherto have refrained from
voting on the enforcement question.
'sLike Beer Foam-Nothing'
Mr.. Wheeler In his statement. de-
clared that the claims of the Asso-
citation Against the Prohibition
Amendment of eighty votes in the
next house was like the foam on
a glass of beer nothing substantial
to it."
I'm the house." said Mr.. Wheeler,
their total strength In the past for
any beer or light wine amendment
or similar weakening amendment to
the national prohibition act was not
more than 1888. The last reports we
have from the states, with few dis
tricts out, show that they will mus
ter 1io votes for any such amend
ment Their vote viii probably be
much lezs than that. ~
