PROHIBITION CONVICTIONS

Prompt disposition in federal cour
, of violators of the national prOhibi
ton law, as was evidenced by the
numerous convictions at Moscow last
week, will no doubt have a whole
some effect in promoting respect for
tile law in all quarters.
With conviction and Jail sentences
staring violators of the law in the
face, and with slight opportunity for
the guilty to escape through friend
ship with men ON the juries, or SYM
pathetic juries, it would seem that the
deral court is the proper place in
which to try such cases.
If the law is worth being ON the
statute books-and the prohibition
law is a part of the federal constitu-
ion-it is worth enforcing, and while
it is generally agreed that it is i'm
possible to strictly enforce the prohi-
bition law, it is the duty of the Of
ficers to enforce the law, where a vio-
lation is known to have occurred.
Likewise, it is the duty of prose-
cutors to prosecute and Of juries to
convict where evidence shows that
the law has been violated. When pro-
hibition cases are tried in local courts,
too often witnesses hesitate to testify,
except in a manner favorable to the
accused. and juries, unmindful of the
of violation of a clause i'm
he constitution of the United States,
all to convict man because he
moonshine and sold it to
lis neighbors.
With all the power of the U. S.
officials, it would seem
hat far better results can be obtained
Y trying booze cases in federal courts
han in state courts. +.
Another way to put the moonshiner
ut of business, is to repeal the pro-
ibitipn ammendment Such action,
Though fraugbt with many difficult
IS, would surely relieve a perplexing
ation-wide problem.

Answering recent charges that stea mship companies operating to Alaska have made excessive profits. Kenneth Kerr. editor of the Rail- way and Marine News. points out that comparing rates to Alaska with those charged by steamers to the Atlantic Coast ia unfair because in the past year 2O.OOO.00O tons of cargo were handled by intercoa steamers while the total tonnage handled by both Canadian and Am erican steamship companies operat- ing to Alaska did not total one-half a million tons. He points out that the steamers operating between the Atlantic and Pacific Coasts have so much cargo offered the year around that new steamers are constantly be- ing added, while the Alaska trafiic is seasonal, ship insurance is much higher. operatine costs higher. and whereas intercoastal steamers. for instance. load 6,000 tons at one shifting at Seattle's docks that the Alaska steamers take only a few hundred tons and then have 10 put into Alaskan ports for few tons of freight during the off season. He points out that the average freight on pair of shoes to Alaska. using a rate that is higher than is now charged. amounts to 24 cents per pair. The Alaska Steamship Com pany recently published an answer tu charges made by certain Alaska office holders relative to alleged ex- cessive charges.

Professional at Atlantic City
Country Club Given Dinner and

In appreciation of the fact that
Clarence w. Hackney. professional OF
the Atlantic City Country Club, had
annexed two golf championship titles
THIS summer in matches with leading
professionals of this country and Can
ada, he was rendered a dinner at the
Northfeld club house on Monday
night. The affair was attended by
over one hundred members of the
club.
Under the direction of j. Haines
Lippincott, president, and Frederick
C. Roberts, secretary of the club, the
affair was a success in every particu-
lar. Henry McSweeny, former chair
man of the greens committee, and G..
B. Beacon, of Jersey City, and a men,
Der of the local organization, were the
speakers. Both gave the seashore pro
unlimited praise. Hackney was pre-
sented with a handsome gold watch
during the dinner.
Hackney won the Philadelphia Open
Golf Championship at Pine Valley, and
then went to Toronto, Canada, where
he defeated a strong opposition of
champions for the Canadian Open
Golf Championship. The winning OF
either of these titles would have been
considered sufficient honor for one
season, but Hackney captured both, to
the great satisfaction of the North
field members.

AbsecOn Excited By
Very Stubborn Fire
Council Chamber Threatened by
Blaze in Sooy Building Early
Tuesday Morning.

Early on Tuesday morning a fire
was discovered in the Sooy Building,
corner of Station avenue and White
Horse pike, Absecon. The Absecon
fremen quickly responded, and as
soon as the natur of the blaze was
apparent. the Absecon people tele-
phoned to this city for assistance.
The local iremen made a quick run
to the neighboring city and~rendered
valuable assistance.
The structure is IN old ms and was
formerly occupied by Daniel Waters
as a store and dwelling. 1t is now
used for stores on the first floor, with
an apartment and City Council cham
Der on the second floor. The flames
were discovered as they broke through
the roof. The damage by fire and
water amounted to about $500.
The origin of the fire was unknown.
1t was discovered by people living in
the apartment. Mrs. Julia Fenton
and her four children made a hasty
exit in their night clothes to escape
the smoke and flames.
The building is located in the CEN
tire of the business district. 1t is di-
rectly opposite the First National
Bank, which occupied the corner store
for a time until the new banking
house was completed.
