collected in liquor cases, was reported

WE HAVE THE AMERICAS AND THE

Secretary Mellon s not at all optimistic over the outlook in Europe. He believes there is little or no chance for the settlement adjustment of debts owing tho United States by the European Natlons until the reparations question is satisfactorily ar ranged and that there is little prospect of that
 The situation fail to ones heart to ache for the people of Europe, living midst ample resources with wealth of the products of labor, culture and learning, skilled workmen and abundant facilities with which to work, yet suffering for the necessities of life because of the mtarism of the and fear of t yet and the politics. racial rival jeaousies lratreds and suspicious which prevail.
 This situation presents rather gloomy outlook for those in the United States who would expand our trade relations with those the Atlantic But have another outlook. We have the Americas, the Orient and the countries the Pacific made safe for commerce. by the Four-Power Treaty.
 We are told that the Mexican Government will be recognized before the end of September That will make the American continents largely unde- velcped. available for all sorts of activities People all eady pouring into the Latin American coun- tries from Europe and American capital is going there by the millions. If conditions continue, as Mir. Mellon looks for them to. there will be people from Europe and more American capital for development in Mexico Central and South America. If we cannot get an outlet for cur supplies in Europe accelerate our investments in the development of those coun- tries and thereby set the millions Latin America to work and give the people that go there something to do. That would make American market The two-andah half billions that have already invested in South America yielding profits in marktes inter- est and dividends.

Necessity of Mining Spirit.
Anchorage Times.l


 Not very many years ago everyone in Alaska miner. If he not actively engaged in op- erating working in mine he out in the hills looking for mining project and if engaged in any other enterprise, holding Government office, he investing his surplus. usually, in some mining enterprise; either helping to develop mine CT grubstaking prospector.
 Mining, the weath of mines, geological forma- tions and the most favorable localities in which to prospect provided 90 per of the topics of All askan conversation. Then the along; with 1t came other activities; the old trained prospector had died off made stake, allowed himself to be talked out of his vocation and a result mining interest in Alaska began to wane
 The people of the United States go in for favorite and popular industries For the past decade mining has not been popular regardless of the fact that statistics prove that practically all minerals are being taken out in less mad less quantities yearly
 Any one in Alaska who knows conditions appre- ciates the fact that he aggregate failures in the fishing industry exceed in monetary loss the failures in the mining industry and yet a dollar lost in min ing creates unfavorable comment than ten dollars loss in fishing The whole of the United States needs mining revival Next to agriculture it is the most important business the nation Alaska is a mining country; it's prosperity depends on the the same is sought out. And bear in mind the fact that the slowing up of Alaska's mineral production is as much psychological it is, economical.
 We should turn back few pages of Territorial history and all become miners again.

He became i'll and his physician told him that he needed vacation. He was afraid to ask for it fearing that it would be made per manent The worry aggravated his condition His friends became alarmed and them a Wall Street broker who happened know President Harding he told why he feared to ask for a leave or absence He did know of the acouaintance between his Wall Street friend President Harding and was much surprised when he got a letter scratched in long hand a scrap of paper which read:
 My Dear Mr. NJ:
