STANDARD IN NEW HANDS

In the last issue of the Poplar
Standard e. w. Jerome, editor of
the paper for the last ten years or
more, his retirement as
editor and publisher, and the leas-
ing of the paper to Carpenter and
Delger who have been members of
the force for some time. Mr..
Jerome says that poor health i'm
pells him to make the change. He
will try a chs rge Of climate and a
rest.
Mr.. Jerome is a newspaper writer
of talent and originality. When at
his best his "stuf" always holds a
healthy kick. Besides that he is a
darned good fellow with whom The

clashes. We wish him a complete
restoration to health and hope to
find him back in the harness some
day.
For the new publishers we wish
the fullest measure of success.

LAWS DELAY TICKLES THE
ROOTLEGGER

Motion picture audiences recently
have seen films that were made in
the huge store houses where confs-
Gated liquor is taken. What a CO.
lossal temptation to graft these
films reveal!
These audiences were not surpis-
ed when they read lately the charge
that thousands of dollars worth of
booze had ben removed without any
accounting being made. That booze
had been taken from bootleggers in
January, 1922. 1t was missed ore
than three years later!
The law-abiding citizen naturally
will ask why liquor is held more
than three years after enforcement
officers confiscated it. That's easily
explained. The legal machinery in
this country is in such dilapidated
shape that any clever and well paid
lawyer can ward off a final decision
in most any case almost Indefinitely.
Honest officials who would like
to destroy the stuff must wait until
authority is granted.

medicine, in education, in means

THE STYLE

Helena Record Herald: A Mon
tana man was in Chicago for the
Rodeo, comparing his own life in
Montana with that of the poor kids
of Chicago, was so affected he sent
an unsigned letter to the Chicago
Tribune, with a money subscription
to the children's fresh air fund of
the newspaper. The paper printed
the letter, and said it was the sort
of anonymous communication most
people admire, and expressed it's APP
probation of the contribution by
saying, "Hail and farewell, son of
Montana-and thank you" The
letter which is interesting to Mon
tana people was as follows:
"The inclosed greenback is a debt
I owe the poor kids Of Chicago.
Here I am, a big husky from the
west, from the great state of Mon
tana, in Chicago for the rodeo. Out
where I come from they are all in
the days business. l straddled a
horse as soon as l was old enough
to hold a rein and b~ulldogged steers
when Chicago boys my age were
shooting pool. This isn't my first
visit to the big city, but it's the first
time l realized the way some folks
lived. We went to see the stock
yards so my friend and myself took
a jaunt and wandered into what you
city folks call the slums. We don't
have them in Montana. Out there
there's room for every kid to grow
and breathe pure air. Some of those
miserable little kids down in that
neck of the woods brought a lump
to my throat. I'll tell you. Ragged,
dirty-some of them looked half
starved. I'd like to see how they'd
act turned loose on a ranch out in
the cow country. So when I read
in your paper about your Camp AL
gonquin and what it does for those
little beggars, I told myself here
vas a chance to share some of my
good fortune with the kids who
won't ever see Montana. Say, I'm
glad I can go back. No city life for

A NIAGARA OF BEAN SOUP

The humble bean, target for gibes
and jokes, at last has come into its
own as the "hero" of a movie. The
Importance of this legume as food
is stressed in the new United States
Department of Agriculture educa-
tional motion picture, Oceans OF
Beetles?"
According to department statisti-
clans, a hamper containing the en-
tire green bean crop Of the United
States, 10000 tons, would be equal
in circumference and height to the
Capitol Of the United States, and a
bag containing all the dry beans
grown in one year would be twice as
large. If all the baked beans, can
ned and in cases, were piled case
upon case they would make nine
piles each equal in size to the Wash
ington Monument. Another start
ling claim of the bean enthusiasts
is that our crop would make enough
bean soup to run Niagara Falls for
more than three hours.
These interesting deductions are
presented in the film by means of
animated cartoons. The picture is
intended to call attention to the rav
ages of the Mexican bean beetle,
the william" of the story, and to
inform bean growers of ways and
of protecting their crops
against this insect.

SEDATE ATTORNEY
 ARRIVES SEWARD
DlGNiTARY FROM ISLAND TOWN HERE FOR BRIEF SESSION
 OF DISTRICT COURT

Clothed in suit of rightenous, carrying file of Blackstone and wear ing his usual smile J. F. Coffey arriv- ed in Seward yesterday aboard the S.S. Admiral Watson.
 Jack, as he his familiarly known, is staying at the Van Glider. While here he will attempt to persuade the Just Judge that his side of the cases are right. This seems to be the universal habits of attorneys of which this same Jack is a worthy ex- ponent, MT. Coffey is emphatic in the assertion that Kodiak is the Com ing City of Alaska" :.
 He actually. waxes. eloquent while he tells of the wonderful fishing i1- dustry; the agricultural possibilities and even unto the climate, including sunshine, MT. Coffey boosts for his own home town. .
 Among the interesting items of news that MT. Coffey mentioned is the fact that the inmimmicable Carl Amy (known to his special friend as ''the Runt') will arrive on the S.S. Starr, due the later part of the week. .s
 MT. Coffey, while an ardent Kodiak Booster, spoke very. complimentary of Seward. He is of the opinion that the future of Seward is assured and predicts an increased growth upon legitimate lines.
 The success of MT. Coffey in his profession is source of pleasure to his many Seward friends who ex- tend him hearty welcome.

mail has served as a means of ship ing large quantities of gold and furs to the states. Furs, which are often more valuable than the gold ship ments, are frequently shipped by par cels post, and not registered because of the confidence in the present sys- m. Under the proposed change these articles would not receive the pro- tection to which their value entities them. ~
 5. During the World War the freight shipment of mail was borne by Alaskans because it was an emer- gency measure. At the present time there is no national emergency and we feel that Alaska is entitled to just as efficient mail service as any state or city in our nation, and that our mail should be properly pro- tected and cared for in transit as it is at present. It would seem false eCUuOuly lO I6luIu lO lu6 WdI-Ilm6 system.
 We trust that before any action rel ative to the proposed removal of the mail clerks is taken that you will give the matter your carefulest con sideration. You will find upon inves- tigation that our contentious in the matter are just and we'll fouded.

ACTION TAKEN ON kENAIPEN. ROAD
 CHAMBER MEET
(Continued from Page One

following facts are submitted for your careful attention:
 1. A recent message from the post office department to the Alaska Blu reau of the Seattle Chamber of Com merce stated that the Alaskan mail service cost the government $750- 900 while revenue of only $125 5,000 is received from Alaskan post of fices. This latter figure is mislead- ing in that the major portion of pos tai revenue derived from this Ter ritory is credited to post offices in the various states, since the postage which is used to carry the enormous value of parcel post is purchased in the states, although paid for by Al askans. It is roughly estimated that if this postage for parcels post ship ments to merchants and private in- dividuals were purchased in Alaskan offices and sent out for use on re- turn shipments, the above figure of $125,000 income would be increased five-fold. With this condition in mind it is apparent that the differ ence between cost and income is not a very large one.
 g. During the World War the mail clerks were temporarily removed fror, tho Alocl-op .,acco1c Vo,r roo ords will undoubtedly show that dur ing the period in which there were no mail clerks on the Alaskan boats there was an enormous loss to the government and to Alaskan merch- ants and private individuals because of pilfering of mail sacks while in transit and because of loss and of damage due to rough and. improper handling and storing of the mail aboard the vessels. Mail was treated as common freight and was not pro- tected or guarded from tampering or theft. Packages were received with contents partially or entirely missing or have been so badly dam aged as to be valueless. We have no desire to go thru another such experience.
 3. During the war period, when the mail was shipped as freight, it was impossible to get the mail from the boat and distributed in less than half day at the earliest and general ly longer. Under the present sys- tenn, mail is the first thing to leave the boat and quick service is secured. Under the freight system mail took it's turn with the rest of the freight and delay of an hour was not at all uncommon. The longer time ne- cessary to sort and distribute the mail under the proposed change makes it practically impossible for local merchants to secure their mail and get the important portion of it 1 answered in time to return on the same boat and causes an unneces- sary delay of one week. This is a hardship under which our Alaskan business cannot prosper as it should. Under the present system our mail arrives properly sorted and can be and is distributed in comparative ly short time after the arrival of the boat.
 4. At present and in the past the
