SMITH BACKING.

Not only are nearly two-thirds of the dele
gates to Houston for Gov. Smith but he has car
red two-thirds of the States which have far more
than two-thirds of the population and an even
greater percentage OF the acreage of the Union.
This does not take into account the Territories
and island possessions and the District of Co
lumba, all of whose delegates, 80 in number,
are for the New York Governor for the Demo-
cratic Presidential nomination. Only few times
since Jaekson's time has candidate gone to a
Democratic National Convention with anything
like the backing that is behind the candidacy
of Gov Smith. 1t has been exceeded only by the
backing of Cleveland, two of the Bryan nomina-
tons and the second Wilson nomination since
the second nomination of Van Buren, in 1910.

Soda Pop and Baby Carriages.
(Seward Gateway

The Irros Company of Juneau Fred A, Sorrl
proprietor has opened up a broadside seilns
in Seward with the hope of establish
ing maket for his soda pop. In this we see
the subject for editorial comment.
Sorri's pop is manufactured in Aaska-its an
Alaska industry which may mean thousands of
dollars to the Territory per annum providing
his pop is good and the price comparable to
the imported drinks. 1t is the nucleus of an
industrial payroll.
One of the first lessons Alaskans must learn
in order to progl sss in the development of
Alaska must be that of backing up Alaskan
concerns. Their growth means our growth
We get tired of hearing this eternal cry 1.-The
need of Outside capital" Just what is the big
idea waiting for others to open up the country
for us?
So whether it be pop baby carriages or
anything else long it is manufactured
in the Territory let's all go for it,

More or Less True

You hear a good deal about
sex equality these days, but the
increasing divorce rate would
seem to show man is less of a
match for woman than he ever
was.
1t is about as foolish to expect
young fellow of today to date
with a nice, old-fashioned girl as
it is to expect a kid to pass up &
three-ring thriller for flea cir
Gus.
Flappers look number of
things, but SO far we have failed
to see one that looked bashful.
A cynic is one who thinks wo-
man is always in style and her
husband always in debt and in
bad.
The shingle bob's popularity is
also evidence that hair-pulling
matches are as out of date as
tiddle-de-winks and crokinole.
Telling father the spinach and
carrots are good for him makes
him enjoy the meal like telling
daughter that hitting the hay
early is good for her health, COM
plexion and disposition makes her
pass up dates to get more sleep.
The great trouble with men
seems to be they were born men.
A girls idea of tragedy is not
having been born the kind of girl
that men get eye-strain from
staring at.
Women quit having birthdays
and they might as we'll, for after
so long they quit getting anything
ON them.
Our idea of the height of the
ridiculous is a cornfed buying
overstuffed furniture and reduc-
ton dope the same day.

Mr.. Lavery said these figures were
