depressing effects. A few people ap-
pear to have the blues on Monday

They are constantly in the dumps.
To them life seems not worth

You do not enjoy contact with fam

cemeteries of Europe are women who
probably never have been away from
their own community. Invitations will

THE TRADE-AT-HOME CAMPAIGN.

There is evidence aplenty that the trade-at- home campaign that has been conducted in Juneau during recent months with the cooperation of the Juneau Chamber of Commerce and local business men, has borne fruit The house to house can vassers who have come to the town selling from samples have felt the effect of it and so have the local business houses. It has been worth while campaign and one that should be continued until the end.
 Juneau has the finest sort of prospects for the future Indications abound that greater forward movement than the town has experienced for a de- ade-and- a half is near at hand, and that it will never stop is clearly apparent. The one absolutely necessary thing to make this of the very best cities the Pacific Coast is the cooperation of all the peope-and that includes the need for trading at home. Let the people of this community stand together firmly and keep all the money here that is possible and there will be local funds for local investment in industries and building development. Nothing will do to attract outside capital than for the people who are here to build up a solid and populous city by community loyalty and cooperation. It would inspire confidence that would bring people to live here and capital for invest ment.
 Keep up the trade-at-home campaign and it will be successful A little while under 100 per cent. trade-at-home policy and shall have a people that will not want to trade anywhere else. The Chamber of Commerce never did finer thing for Juneau than when it sponsored this movement.

Taxing the Stock Markets.
Cincinnati Enquirer.)

The proposal of Senator Carter Glass to levy a tax of per cent all security transactions where stocks held less than sixty days presents an interesting problem The entire object of the pro- posed tax would be to penalize those spectators on the security exchanges who are inclined to gamble rather than invest. Sixty days, of course is convenient, arbitrary distinction between long time investment and mere speculation rapid fuc- tuatons in market values If the tax which Senator Glass proposes would actually do all that is claimed for it, the scheme would be worth serious consid- eration despite its large cost to buyers of securities
 in the course of a year
 But it is not at all clear that the results would be what the Senator wishes. The sale of securities
 less than 60 days after their purchase may in some cases follow from a conservative policy of invest ment, and, the contrary, pure speculation may require holding stocks longer than 60 days In such cases as these the Glass proposal would precisely defeat its own end Furthermore the relation of the stock markets to the money markets-the basis Tor the Glass proposal-changes from year to year. At one time the security markets may be divertine funds from industry and causing a measure of in
 aton while at the other times they may be serving most useful purpose in equalizng the distribution or available funds into the proper channels of in- vestment.
 A law of Congress on this point would be hard and last, and would make no allowances for such changes in the actual function of the security mar kets. Thus it would at times serve as heavy tax on one of the important elements in the business mechanism. If revenue is wanted the present very light tax on security sales could be raised but not apparently the object of the proposed legislation.
 It is not likely that Congress will give serious consideration to the Glass proposal and it is not desirable that 1t should for the present If a full investigation of actual operations the security markets should prove after the speculative mania of the past two years is over-that tax would really curb the diversion of funds into this tyne of imitation, then Congressional consideration will De welcome But to enact such tax into law on haps disastrous

NEED FOR AIR MAIL SERVICE.

One of the immediate needs of Alaska is an air mail service between Juneau and way points and Seattle The operations of the Alaska Washington Airways in Southeast Alaska during the present has demonstrated the practicability of such service. It has proved that there would be large patronage for the air mails and that a Government contract would add to the usefulness to the public of regular operating air lines.
 Experience has demonstrated beyond dispute the value of air mails in the States and there is more need per capita at least for fast mails in Alaska than there We have not the two more fast trains a day up here. Our mail must wait fol steamships that at times in the year usually several days apart. day flight with mai daily, three times a week, between Juneau and Seattle would facilitate business immensely
