Paid in Monkey Money.
Cincinnati Enquirer )

Cincinnati Enquirer)
 Proof of German perfidy is in the recent amortization of the 900 worth of bonds issued by the Hamburg American and North German Lloyd Steamship Companies for the equivalent of about $S,0O0 in gold. This brought about by paying the obligations in the next to worthless German mark. These securities which were deemed highly yauable when issued prior to the of 1914 extensively held in foreign countries although substantial amount bought by German nationals.
 The Versailles treaty forbids the defeated nation from paying it's obligations under that instrument in anything gold Were it for this precautiors undoubtedly it's creditors would receiving at this time huge bales of the tron marks that have been emitted by the German Treasury and that country would be the richest in all Central Europe But this prohibition does not extend the discharge private obligations. Hence the action of the heartily cursed steamship company fnaneierc.
 There is however another side to the question. In making restitution for the shipping it destroyed the German Government, took the vessels of these lines, which 1t extensively subsidized as part of the navy, and paid the owners in what the French so expressiyely called "monnaie de singe'- monkey money All they have done is to pass the to the hopeless bondhoders. At the bottom of the mess, therefore, is the German Government as the responsible agent in this reprehensibe transaction
 Aside from this phase of the affair there is furn- lshed to all the world impressive lesson in the evil of the imitation of currency, might even be called knockdown argument Upon the face of IL as bookkeeping incident the payment of the bonds is perfectly regular But all concerned payer and payee, are perfectly well aware that there has been in effect repudiation of the debt through the connvancc of the dishonest German officials The same charge would lie against any government which deliberately encourages the undue expansion of the circulating medium.

Alaska Fishery dispute.
Seattle Times.)

Alaska fisheries again the subject of con- troversy. Trap sites and seining grounds years ago furnished the of warfare between rival com panes Jurisdiction in the matter leases and taxes more recently gave rise to disputes between Territorial and Federal governments Issuance of per mits on reservation waters is issue between the Delegate in Congress and the Commissioner of the United States Bureau of Fisheries
 The Federal reservation plan contemplates the regulation of fisheries in such manner that all fish ermen will have equal opportunity in their calling and that the fish will be allowed enough escapement to spawning grounds to insure repenishment of the supply. The efficacy of the regulations depends on their impartial, intelligent enforcement
 Delegate Dan Sutherland complains that fishing Fisheries Bureau have obtained rights on water reser- vations exclusive in character and too close spawn ing grounds to allow sufficient escapement.
 Commissioner Henry O'Malley resents the charge of carelessness in the issuance of permits He rep resents that special investigation progress to determine> the facts relative to fish escapement
 Alaska's fisheries her most valuable resource For 1922 her fishery products estimated at about S3O,O0O,0OO; her output of all minerals was $18- 5000 0O0
 Alaskan waters have yielded wealth incaculable but their supply must be guarded from depletion Northern fish have experienced marked dminution in recent years.
 The controversy between the Delegate to Congress and the Commissioner of Fisheries seems to be diff terence between two well-intenioned officials over the application of the law. Both are concerned for the welfare of Alaska. Their dispute will inure to the advantage of the fishery industry.

LINCOLN'S BIRTHDAY.

This is the 114th birthday anniversary of Abraham Lincoln than whom lived no greater American. His place in history is with the first rank of our Pres- dents. Washington commander of the Revolutionary armies and the first President after the adoption Of the Constitution which was set into operation under his wise and firm guidance Jefferson, author of the Declaration of Independence the first of our states men to advocate abolition of slavery the inspiration for cession by Virginia of the Northwest Territory to the Federal Government third President purchaser cf Louisiana author of territorial expansion and tribune of the democracy which lies at the foundation of American political thought, and Jackson successful rodier and first of Presidents to bring the pow CTS Of government to the common people, are the others among Presidents of the past to rank with Lincoln in services to their country, As Washington, Jefferson and Jackson interpreted the spirit of their times, Lincoln embodiment of the spirit which prevented the dismemberment of the Nation through the between the States And like Washington, Jcferson and Jackson, he natural leader of
 
 Lincoln belonged to the school of thought inspired Jefferson and Jackson His speeches and his performances during his long political career prove his devotion to Jeferson's teachings. He be-
 eved in the rule of the masses and had faith in the common people However. like Jefferson and Jackson, he exercised the executive power firmly when necessity demanded it.
 like Jackson, Lincoln sprang from the masses and derived much of his education from association with them. They were both fronicrsmen, and both had experience in defending the Western Border from Indian attack Beth represented the movement in American civilization which carried the powers of government westward from the original colonial dement's.
 The personality of Lincoln, his humanism great ness of soul and all comprehendng sympathies, prob ably place him in this respect in a rank by himself at the head of the list of immortas who have served as chief executives of the Nation Lincoln typihed in sentiment, spirituality, aspirations and loving kindli- ness the very highest of our national concepts He lived and wrought his will without malice or hate without pfeJudicos or meancss with broad and tol- erant sympathies and love of justice tempered with tender mercy. His memory occupies a place in the arts of his coantrymen shared only by that of Wash q gton

If 1t Eits--


 It doesn't take the bride long to find the pealing of the wedding bells is followed by the peeling of pota- toes.
 The only time girls wrist watch goes is when she takes it along with her. But still it must keep time for t never tells it.
 Even though a girl boasts Of her own wonderful curves she is pretty sure to want the man sine marries to be mighty straight.
 There isn't anything harder in the world than trying to drive people to do night. but you never have any trouble leading them into temptation Our own guess is that the reason the cave men got away with the rough stuff they did was because the ladies of those days hadn't learned the art of yielding d rolling pin or pulling a trigger.
 The girls are not as modest as they used to be. and a good deal of the blushing you see these days is put on.
 The world hates quitter. and yet the wisest fellow in the world is the one who knows enough to quit when he's had enough
 Contempt is what one woman shows for another who lets her husband boss her around
 The greatest mystery in life is why man will desert a good, true woman for vamp who looks like something that had been left by the flood.
 At that, we guess even if a girl does like to be thought a highbrow she will still fall for the low neck gown.
 If the woman who is trying to live with a man chockful of faults thinks she has hard life she ought to talk to the poor woman who is trying to live with a faultless one.
