SHIP SUBSIDY HURTS

the proposal to give our coastwise
ships free service or lower cost for
service than others in the Panama
canal: u
"The Borah bill to exempt coast
wise shipping from paying Panama
canal tolls ought to be beaten in the
house, where it now ponds. 1t can

the measure wake up and get busy.
THE Chicago Association of Com
merce has undertaken to awaken
them thru letters to similar organi-
cations turnout this region.
When the senate passed the bill
there was a surprising number of
mid-western senators who supported
it, despite the fact that in effect it
proposes subsidy to the two coasts
at the expense of this entire region.

1t is all very we'll to be optimistic
about the, future, and this is time
for us to get down to sound judge
ment when making our predictions
about what the future will bring
There is no use in painting red,
rosy 1922, for 1922 will be prosy
1t will be filed with matter f-fact
things, days pay for days work.
There will not be much boom times;
people will not be flush with money.
People will practice a great deal of
thrift. A great many will do fifteen
days work in the month and get paid
for fifteen days work at moderate
price. The year 1922 will be very
good time to take good care of our
income. There will be a good many
incomes during 1922 that will be
more or less intermittent. A good
many will be quite spotted. The
price Of coal being high and our
time not being worth much it is a
good time to saw wood.
Last winter and spring when rail-
road men were being laid off at Po-
'catello, some of our optimistic fell
lows said it was only temporary
lay-off and that they would be hired
right back again, but at lower wages.
That did not come to pass with very
many of them; most Of. them are
laid off yet, and those that have
been hired have been hired at rather
high wages, but they have not the
advantages they had during the war
Of being paid for time when they
did not work and being paid time
and half for overtime, and six
hours pay for three and quarters
hours work. The railroads are not
spending so much money for wages
nowadays, altho railroad wages are
rather high. The railroad companies
are storing great many freight cars
on sidings in the country. There is
great deal of farm produce that
does not get shipped anywhere be-
cause there is not much demand for
it. The products of the factories are
not getting shipped very much be-
cause people are not buying much
of the factory products.
The year 1922 will see good
many employers doing their. own
work. 1t will witness a good many
jobs being abolished and the work
of three persons done by one or two.
Things will not be so very prosperous

ing both ways all the time and one
depends upon the other.
The thing that is doing the great
est harm to American industries, is
the boarding of money. People who
have little money and draw it out
of the bank and thus withdraw it
from circulation ny keeping it in
their trunk or hidden in a sock ara
the people who are making hard
times harder. Any one who has
single dollar hidden away in the fear
that he might lose it hasn't any right
to complain of hard times because
that person is making hard times.
A person who has 500 OF $1,000
boarded by having it deposited in
a safety deposit vault or hidden away
out of sight and out of circulation
is making hard times harder. If
the boarded money, the money that
is boarded by the common people,
were released or deposited in the
oanks or loaned on good security to
their friends and neighbors who
need the money, the backbone of the
hard times would be broken. Bust
ness would revive. Speaking broadly
1t is to great extent our own fault
that times are hard. They arc made
hard by the natural and general con-
ditions of the world and then they
have been greatly intensified by the
rank and file of people boarding

Few Blind Men Smoke

The sense of sight is responsible to
a great extent for the fascination in
smoking" said the psychologist as he
pufted on his cigar. I'm fact, the senses
OF taste and smell come second to sight
In deriving enjoyment from a good
smoke. The greatest part of the pleas
ure man has In smoking is seeing
the smoke blow from his mouth and
float In the air. have noted that
sightless men seldom smoke. have
asked many sishtless men why they
did not smoke, ana they replied they
could not derive much pleasure from
as they could not zoe the smoke"

per, Zone never knows"
Several times after that the now
lonely philosopher saw the girl with
the great big, handsome man. They
played tennis together and they mo-
tored and they swan.
One day when a heavy sea was
running on the bathing beach the girl
and the athlete went swimming alone.
Apparently none of the other hotel
guests dared to breast the breakers.
The girl was full Of life and reckless
and she got beyond her depth, carried
out by the undertOw. She called for
assistance in voice filled with panic.
She called Repeatedly and she
screamed. The athlete started after
her, but he turned back and reached
shallow water, where he stood trem-
bling. The girl went under.
The philosopher abandoned his seat
on the hotel veranda and dashed to-
ward the lake. Into the water he ran,
clothes, cap, shoes and all. Into the
breakers he plunged with long, swift
strokes. The others on the veranda
gasped as he disappeared in the foam
and the athlete trembled Iio,
lently. Presently the philoso
emerged from a huge wave, swimming
with one arm while the other bore the
girl.
That evening, as the sun was drop
ping toward Pine peak, a man and a
girl sat on a rustic bench and watched
a silver ribbon dance on Crystal, lake.
The girl shuddered.
ITO think" she said, that would
be out there now, lifeless thing, but
for you! To think that my big hand
some athlete stood helpless, afraid,
while you struggled with the heavy
sea to save me!'
But you love this man, do you
not?" said the other philosopher, as
he gazed across the lake. HE is big
and strong and handsome"
The girl laughed dryly.
But he Is a coward, and that spells
1t all. Yesterday while we walked
along the path he went out of his way
to set his heavy foot on an innocent
caterpillar. Today he stood trembling
and watching me sink in the undertow.
Don't speak to me Of love-not with
him."
The sun gathered up its curtain
and dropped behind the peak, and the
leaves rustled in the breeze and the
birds twittered.
It was time for love, and the two
philosophers on the rustic bench drew
closer to each other. They sat for
long TIME, until another ribbon of sill
yer crawled across the lake, unfurled
by the moon, and they whispered
sweet nonsense-or was 1t nonsense2
Certainly it was not philosophy.

swapping black eyes on the man..

sighed, that you and I ever could

PIANO MAN IS ADVERTISING
 NEED OF BOATS ON RIVER

George Anderson, well known piano expert of Juneau, who has been a regular visitor in Interior Alaska during the last decade and who had considerable difficulty mak- ing the trip this year on account of the withdrawal of the White Pass boats, told the people of the coast section, upon his return to Juneau recently, that adequate steamer service on the Yukon river is a crying enescsity of the h. .erior. The. Government railroad does some good but 1t will never be of lasting benefit to the settle ments along the Yukon and navi- gable tributary streams until a con meeting steamer service IS estab- lished. With the withdrawal of the White Pass boats from the regular Dawson Panama run the people liv- ing along that vast stretch of river have absolutely no dependable means of transportation and, as a result, there is little incentive to development of the country's un- doubted resources
 The lack of steamer service, MT. Anderson declared, lis killing the tourist business. He points out that there nearly one hundred tour ists at Dawson who would have talk en the trip down the Yukon had steamer accommodations been avail able but instead, they had to return to the coast by way of Whitehorse, over the same route they had gone inside.
 MT. Anderson, it will be recalled made the trip down to Panama from Dawson on 9 mail launch, with near ly forty others. And at Tanana they transferred to other small and un- comfortable boats for the trip up river to Nenana.
