The British schooner Annabelle was
seized late Sunday off Jewish creek
about forty miles south of Miami,
with a cargo of II, 800 cases of whis-

bition squadron operating out of Mi
ami and adjacent coastal towns.
The entire crew of 21 men was cap

vessel.

ship gray, gradually made their way
down the coast last week, it became
known here yesterday, one of them
under the command of Captain Rog-

got the location of the Annabelle, and
Sunday a number of the planes
gathered near Jewish, and at sig
nal circled simultaneously over the
whisky carrier.

prohibition squadron is equipped with
a wave code which no other wireless
apparatus can interpret, and this is
used exclusively in the sending and
receiving of official messages. In the
stern of each airplane is Colt

ing 400 shots minute, and these are
manned by expert gunners.

APPROPRIATION FOR
 ROAD WORK INCREASED

The annual Federal appropriation for the Alaska Road Commission has been increased to $5O0,000 in the Sen ate, according to official advices re- ceived at Commission headquarters at Juneau, and made public by Col. James G. Steese, president. This amount is carried in the War Deuart- ment measure now before the Senate and the item was approved recently by it.
 The bill was passed by the House several weeks ago. carrying $425,OOO for the commission work in Alaska It also contained a provision under which the Commission is authorized to obligate not to exceed 75 per cent of of the previous years appropriation in any year that the army bill has not passed Congress by March i. In the absence of information to the contrary, Colonel Steese believes that this provision was approved by the Senate also.
 The army bill, on account of nu- merous changes made in it by the Senate, will have to go to conference. Colonel Steese believes it probable that the Alaska Road Commission item for $5OO,OO0 will be allowed by the House as a strong showing was made before both the Senate and House committees as regards the ne- cessity for increased funds for road work, especially for the purpose of constructing a feeder system of roads to the Alaska Railroad.

FOR MAY SHOW A
 BIG INCREASE

Exports of Alaska products to the States during the month of May had value of $1,264,01S, according to the monthly commerce statement just issued by Collector of Customs John c. Mcbride. This is $395, 5,123 in excess of the valuation of the Territory's products exported during the same month, last year.
 The increase is accounted for in the larger volume and value of cop- per ore exported last month, ship ments of 7,969,5S3 pounds valued at $1,040,854 being made as compared to 4,216,920 pounds valued at $534,790 during May last year.

BUREAU PLAYED BY
 DELEGATE SUTHERLAND

The recent announcement by the Department of Commerce that an or ganized effort would be made by three departments to break up the activi- ties of alleged fish pirates in Alaskan waters has drawn the fire of Delegate Sutherland, according to despatches from special correspondents in Wash ington to Seattle newspapers.
 One of these despatches dated from Washington, June 5, said:
 "Dan Sutherland, Delegate to Con- gress, opened fire on the Bureau of Fisheries which operates in Alaska. Commenting on a statement issued by the Department of Justice to the effect that the government will wage war on the fish pirates in the waters Of Alaska, and that the large cannery in- terests in Alaska are assisted at every turn by the United States Bureau of Fisheries, which he terms as an ad- iunct of the packers and is under their domination and control. In their work of usurping the public fishing rights and in obtaining special privilege and monopolistic control of the natural food supply of the nation, the real dan ger, said the Delegate, is not the petty thief, but the large and influential in- terests that seem to be always i'm mune from punishment"

Harmon fortune temporarily diverts
to Mr.. and Mrs. Boffin, who give
shelter to Bella Wiler, the girl who
was to have married the heir. The
Boffins are blackmailed by two de-
lightful rogues, Silas Wegg and Mr..
Venus, who discover and make use Of
later will to deprive the Boffins of
their affluence.
After many tense moments and ex
citing episodes the story unravels in
a highly amusing manner Those

FOR IDAHO and
THE UNIVERSITY
SPEAKER JOHNSTON TALKS TO
CHAMBER ON LOYALTY TO STATE
AND NATIONAL INSTRUCTIONS

81 know only the state of Idaho ant
never want to know of two ends, one
pulling against the other" This was
one of the striking statements made
by Hon. Peter G. Johnston, speaker Of
the last house of representatives, III
m address before the Moscow cham
Der of commerce Thursday noon. Nr
Johnston made most favorable I'M
preston on the large crowd present
at the luncheon. All who heard him
could easily understand why he is one
of the outstanding figures in public
affairs in Idaho. His sincerity and
earnestness, and his deep loyalty to
the state and it's institutions, backed
by ability and judgment, MAKE him
q most useful citizen and valuable
friend.
Mr. Johnston came to Moscow to
address the assembly at the univer-
sity, and the announcement that he
would speak at the weekly luncheon
of the chamber of commerce attracted
the unusually large crowd On re-
quest of President c. A. Hagan he
was introduced by Representative G.
j. Hugo who spoke of Mr.. JohnstOn's
great service to the state during eight
terms in the legislature, and of the
high regard which those who know
him best have for his ability and
judgment.
Idaho University for Idaho Students
Mr.. Johnston's opening statement
was that we should adopt for a slogan
In the state, Idaho University for
Idaho students" He said that it was
a mistaken idea for Idaho young
people to go to institutions outside the
state to secure an education. and that
1T had a tendency to wreck that spirit
which is so necessary to build up
great commonwealth. He said the
tendency could only be overcome
through state patriotism, which
should result in the young people
from all parts of the state coming to
the university. He spoke of the ex-
celIent environment which Moscow.
with it's good homes and it's churches,
things which the parents of pros
pective students must always know
would be found in the community t
which is the home of the state uni
versity. Distance, he said, was the
only handicap and this can be over
come by state patriotism. 1t was at
this point in his address that he said
ne wanted to know only the state of
idaho and to never know that there
were two ends pulling against each
other, as a house divided against IT.
self cannot stand.
Mr.. Johnston told most interesting
ly of trip to France the past sum
mer and to his native country Scot
land, where he attended the great Ro-
tary. convention. He told of visiting
the cemetery in France where are
are buried $500 American boys, who
gave their lives that government Of,
for and by the people might not per-
lsh, and said that he therefore
pledged himself that he would do

everything in his power as an Ameri-
can citizen, to uphold the principles
| for which they died, so that their
! lives might not have been sacrificed
/ in vain.
Liberty May Become License
| Mr.. Johnston said that the danger
to America and the American flag
lies within; that there is danger OF
allowing liberty to become license
that too much criticism of the Amer
lean government and the American
flag is permitted. He said that he
had no use for communism, or any
other ism. He concluded his address
with the statement that we must
guard our American citizenship as
the greatest privilege that man can
enjoy; that every American citizen is
an uncrowned king.
First President of q. Talks
President Hagan called upon Judge
j. H. Forney, the first president of
the University of Idaho Mr. Forney
recounted briefly the conditions sur
rounding the starting of the Univer-
slty of Idaho and referred to the won
derful progress made in 80 years
Referring to Mr.. Johnston, whom he
had known intimately for years. he
said that some of his democratic
friends had remarked to him that if
the republicans were looking for
gubernational timber they might go
farther and fare worse than by
choosing the speaker Of the last
house.
University Unites State
DR.. E. A. Bryan, Idaho commission
er of education, spoke briefly of the
deep interest of Mr.. Johnston in the
university and said that the institu-
ton is deeply indebted to him. He
said that the university is perhaps
the greatest factor in maintaining the
unity Of the state; that unity of spirit
is needed and that the university will
prove to be the greatest instrument
Of unity and strong factor in building
up a great commonwealth
DR.. J. w. Stevenson introduced to
the assemblage Mr.. G. e. Wortbing-
ton of Sheridan, Wyoming; pioneer
