FOURTH OF JULY.

The American people will tomorrow celebrate the 147th birthday anniversary of the great Republic and that means the occasion will be observed throughout the world, for Americans everywhere. century and half is long in the history of tho world mighty events have occurred since the reprcsen- than three millions of people scattered emong the thirteen colonies, each bordering on the Atlantic declared their independence from Great Br- tain. Little did they dream, probably, that in so short time the country they formed would soon become the richest and most powerful earth
 When the Declaration of Independence signed very few Americans had crossed the Alleghany Noun tains. There few settlements in what later became Kentucky and Tennessee and few in West ern Virginia which then included the States north of the Ohio River. There Spanish settlements in Florida along the Gulf of Mexico, along the Mis- sisslpp River and beyond. But for the most part the country extending from hardly than stone throw from the Atlantic seaboard 10 the far Pacific wilderness inhabited by uneiyized Indians and wild animals.
 There today thrce States west of the Mis- sissipp River each of which contain people than inhabited the entire thirteen that fought the for freedom and tho victory after eight years of blcodshed and privation There twice as many people in the three Pacific Coast States. Truly the 147 years snce the signing Of the Declaration of Independence have demonstrated the wisdom those who laid the foundations of the American Nation

WORTH THINKING ABOUT.

Congrca- Zihlman Republican of the Sixth Maryland District, not only have the people of Alaeka the right Americans to govern themselves through full Territorial form of government but there is very practical why they should do so. They govern themselves he declared, better than people who do not live here govern them. |"
 There is no better time to think of these things than the Fourth of July. The central thought of the Declaration of Independence signed AT years morrow next to the declaratoin that all men are created equal and entitled to liberty, is in the de- caration that governments derive their just powers from the conrcnt of the governed Which Is another way of declaring in favor of self government.
 If Alaska is not entitled to sef-goyernment under full Territorial form Of government as those of the other frontiers had in their days then the De- claration or Independence is fraud and the of the United States has been accident

The Movement of Gold.
(San Francisco Journal.

Since the high crest of the business wave in 1920 we have increased accumulation of geld by no less than billion dollars As circulation of currency and credit at that time supported by reserve of fully 50 per cent, which ample for all purposes of safety the addition of this new amount, running the up 77 per cent brings beneficial result Either the extra gold will repose unused in banks and thus income, or else 1t will to feed the stream of infation expansion of credit and to higher prices and in- creased costs of living.
 The requirements of business in financial way may be likened to the steam capacity of boiler When the boiler is producing it's maximum of steam it is useless to pile fuel, that only increases the danger of explosion. Equally useless is it to start up another boiler when the first 
 If the flow of fuel continues to increase the only thing we sensibly do is to arrange for cessa- ton Of the shipments to stack Up the surplus against the time of need. In the latter lose the interest it might be earning It readily be that surplus of good beyond our needs presents a real problem to continued prosperity. We cannot use the money proftably and potential customers cannot it at all The only logical poyment for gold surplus is to it for the rein forcement of the stability of customers. That means foreign investments and nurturng of the sumption of the gold standard among the trading nations. Only by the resumption of the gold standard can foreign exchange be stabilized.
 It would be possible to imagine getting posses sion of all the free gold in the world but suel an event would be no less calamity than it would De to the other nations Ina, would mark the end of our trading ropn. Other nations could no trade With Us except upon barter basis because they caud rot pay. We, having all the money and no fore.an trade would have to resort to the expedient living upon ourselves With the plentitude of money prices would rise and production would decrease as men would soon find out that they could get just as money for smaller product

President Harding's Reply.

President Harding is the only person who foresees distressing resus' to follow conflict of authority between states nation prohibition enforcement. His reply to the radical citizen of Newburgh, N. Y., who hopes to all opponents of prohibition enforcement jailed shot treason all Legislators of that State who voted repeal the dry act suspended from office before higher pen aly is inflicted is couched in the Presidents char acteristc temperate language.
 Thero many who agree with him that the Constitution of the United States should be enforced There are also those who agree with him that the Federal forces enter the domain of any State enforce the Constitution. No doubt, in the present state of public feeling however, there are many will not concede that the word concurrent in the enforcement act carries with 1t also compulsory responsibilities to enact prohibition enforcement laws and create large enforcement staffs and levy high taxes to take concurrent action with the Federal authorities.
 It unquestionably will be put up to the Supreme State is compelled" to go under the Concurrent clause of the Volstead act. It is believed by many citizens that the Volstead law goes further than the eighteenth Amendment contemplated and the Court Will be expected to determine how far State officials can Dc required to to carry out Federal that exceeds the intent of the Constitutional amendment 1t seeks to enforce under their support tho Constitution of the United States
 There are many citizens who feel that the Eigh- teenth Amendment and the Vostead act are in very large measure the result tactics There was much of the Black Facisti activity applied to the enactment of both At the time they have been made the law of tho land and they are entitled to onicial recognition the law and call official en- iorcement so long as the people do demand and compel their annument Therefore the President Is right in his position that they be enfoced
