worth 500 in 1911, has since increased in value via
stock dividends to than $37 900 is, according to
the counsel for Senate subcommittee investigat
ing the oil industry established by the testimony given
before that body.
This startling increase is enough to make the hunt

such investment shows that the chances decidedly

GOVERNOR ASKSF0R
OPINION ON NEW
DRY BILL
JOKER PRESENT IN PROPOSED
ACT. WANTS TO BE SURE
BEFORE APPROVING

Gov Scrugham has requested At
torney General Diskin to supply him
with an opinion as to the constitu-
tionality of the Whitley bill, A. B.
No. 81, which adopts the penal pro-
visions Of the national prohibition
act as the enforcement measure
for Nevada, and which was passed
by the assembly Thursday, accord
ing to Carson dispatch.
Members of the senate have been
advised that the bill contains a
joker in section six, which says:
Should any section or any por-
ton Of any section of this act be
found unconstitutional, the remain
der shall continue in full force and
effect, it being expressly declared
that such is the intention"
1t is possible under this pro-
vision, according to points developed
by informal discussion of the White
ley bill, that the entire act might
be declared invalid with the ex-
ception of the repeating section and
this would leave the state without
any prohibition law as it would
repeal the initiative act, which was
saved by the governors veto.s
The proposed supplementary bill
drawn by Senator Sprague of Esme,t
aida. to be introduced in the event
OF the passage Of the Whitley bill,
to safeguard private dwellings
against unwarranted search and seiz-
ure, not only fixes a penalty for
unlustified invasion, but also desig-

BOOMS IN HARD TIMES

Without any desire to boost Pamoive SOAP but be-
cause serves to point moral it is worth noting that
the company which manufactures has made the fact
known that in 1920, when it still comparatively
new product, 100000 was spent in advertising it
The results must have been satisfactory for in 1922
the appropriation increased to 100000 or al
most 400 per cent.
An exceptionally interesting point about this Wig
orous advertising campaign is that it has been carried
on in which, far general business is con-
cerned have been comparatively lean ones.
From these figures the conclusion may be drawn
that, if you have good thing judicous advertising
VIII sell it as well in poor years in good There
are innumebarle articles which are no less meritor-
ious than Pamolive soap. Fortunes await those who
will give that boom, when too many advertisers are
disposed to rest upon their oars.

IMMIGRATION

For three centuries the immigration policy of both
Americas that of the open door to ALL Two years
ago, the United States performing almost complete
about face, established the policy of limited immgra-
ton.
1t inevitable that experience would point out
faults in such a radical departure, however strongly
the main purpose Of the policy might be approved.
Recent events have borne out this conclusion
The three per cent quota law has been roundy
criticized by its original friends and foes alike. It's
enactment followed the onrush of a horde Of post
of congress decided to admit only assimiabe i'm
migrants They framed the quota law based on the
population of 1910, frankly stating that it their
hope that immigrants from the British Isles Germany
Poland, Scandinavian and other north Europe coun-
tries would come, while immigration of southeastern
Europeans would be minmized.
The first years workings of the law showed the
falacy Of this hope. Immigrants from North Europe
fell far below their quotas while southeastern Europe
exhausted their allowances at the earliest possible
moment.
With the rise of prosperity in this country, however
economic entered into the immigration problem.
For several months have been demanding
the admitance of common laborers. Certain skilled
trades have been complaining that they short of
workmen. And recently conditions have caused an in
in the very sort of immigration which the three
per cent law failed to stimulate.
The house committee is now working on amend
ments to the three per law two per cent quota
with elastic exemptions affecting skilled labor, profess
sional and scientific men, is proposed. The present
temper Of congress indicates that there will be
turn to the old open door policy. 1t may be expected
that the working Of the present law will point the
way to policy which will permit the immigration

ALASKA DOING QUITE WELL

For land that is, according to the anti-conserva-
tonists locked up and the key thrown into the Ber-
ing Sea, Alaska is doing WELL 1t took $18 900
worth OF minerals from its mines during 1922. This
makes total Of $5Oo,O0O,oO0 the mines of Alaska
have yielded, 81 per centum of this coming from de-
posts Of gold, silver and copper.
So far as everyone admits, the surface Of the
ritory is scarcely scratched unknown resources are
hidden there; and many of them will be enriching
civilization long after the present prosperous
ton has disappeared
The chief Alaskan geological survey wonderful
organization Of which the public is all too slightly
familiar-admits that the metal industry has been
handicapped by the lack of fuel but adds that the coal
mining done during the year has supplied the most
urgent need for cheaper fuel along the Alaskan rail-
road
The chief need Of Alaska is not to throw open its
resources to the expoiters rapacity Of few, but
simplify the abundant red-tape which stranges the
good intentions Of the many individual settlers who
wish to live and thrive and develop sound American
commonwealth in that fine territory

There will be meeting in Paris on March 1, in
which every American citizen has direct interest.
The business is the matter of a bill. The amount of
the bill is s256000000. 1t represents the of the
American army Of occupation, which nothing but
uncomfortable credits have been paid
That figures out at 1892 for every man, woman and
child Of Americans population
The circumstances worth recalling. The cost
of the occupation to be preferred charge against
Germany. 1t far France, Belgium and
Britain concerned for those three have been paid
in full. The United States has received nothing and
France surprise when, the point of absorb
ing gold payment on the PREPARATIONS account she
was reminded by the American government that there
is little bill outstanding in the of 1854 900 0O0
That in April, 1922. Since then the cost has
mounted at the rate Of SITS, 900 a month.
At one time it was agreed the United States should
receive one-ffth from the allotment of German dyes,
this allotment representing in Fall rs per Of the
German output. However, this did begin to make
dent in the occupation bill. The American army,
judged by European standards, is expensive one
but, American officials pointed out it there
by any desire Of the American people, but at the
express request Of the allied powers.
The case is good and the American citizen
will be interested to know that the allied powers have
intimatcd willingness to concede the bill, which is
the first step toward paying him his $2.32.

THE WRONG c(o)UE-


The latest wrinkle in the campaign of the Demo-
cratic party to strengthen itself and improve its
chances Of success in 1924 is the attempt to Coue
the electorate into thinking its way. Senator Har-
rson is the first to spring into the lmeght with his
cue, and he brandshes a variation of the "day by
day" dtty in each hand he leaps from the wings.
DAY by day, in every way, far as the country
leaning toward the Democrats party is concerned
is getting better and better variation. The
other has it that the Republican party day by day. in
every way is getting deader and deader."
The first variation raises the question: How can
the country be getting better better by leaning to-
ward the Democratic party when it is obviously
getting better and better by adopting Republican prn-
cpals of government and by awaiting itself of op-
portuntes placed within its reach by the Republican
party? The second suggests effort to carry Coueism
beyond autosuggeston and convert it into spell for
reducing the strength of another party The nation
needs incarnation to convince it that it is daily
getting better. The record of Republican control
establishes that in the sight of ALL
