"Call Out the Marines"
(New York World.0


 In an article published in the current issue of Golfers Weekly Dr. Clarence True Wilson, Gen. era Secretary of the Methodist Board of Temper ance Prohibition and Public Morals, confesses that mo dares to claim that prohibition enforcement has been satisfactory" It has been so far from satisfactory, in fact, that must amend the law to have adequate pains and penalties as sanctions of the law" Congress is under moral obligation, Dr. Wilson thinks to provide these pains and pen alties. For the putting of the fear of God in the minds of those who fear neither God nor man is one of the chief functions of good government Ac- cordngly as appropriate measures to provide the fear of God, Dr. Wilson recommends the following:
 l. "A few marines in Baltimore and New York City would have the same wholesome effect that soldiers had in those two towns sxty-five years ago."
 9 The next change in Prohibition Law must make the first offense involve prison sentence"
 3. Another change in the law must provide that we shall punish the buyer as well the seller of bootleg liquor"
 4. We must not admit any foreigners
 who come to violate American law; upon conviction must send them back to their lands"
 BayonetS, prison sentences, penalties more pen alties and deportation; to such pass have the friends of prohibition ten years after the e,- actment of law which to introduce a better social order. Gall Out the Marines" is the title of pr. Wilson's article It is an appropriate title This is the counsel Of desperation

VISITING CONGREssMEN AGAIN.

Another bunch of CongreSSmen is to tour Alaska gain first hand knowledge of the Territory to guide them in their work at Washington. It is well. Let them come and let them be followed by other and larger delegations of the National legislators. It is true that it is sometimes hard to distinguish large results from the frequent visits of Senators and Representatives during the past. Some of those who have come even learned many things that were not true that they were hurtful rather than helpful They saw many trees that they failed to discern the forest However in the main these visits have been far beneficial than baneful. Many of the Government activities in the North have been made useful through larger appro- priaons that are directly traceable to visits from National lawmakers and other distinguished official visitors,
 The movement to give Canada large slices of Alaska including Skagway. blocked largely through the visit of Senator Fairbanks and others 1893 Shortly after that visit Alaska Senatorial visits from Senator Mason and Senator Dietrich each of whom came alone, and the party consisting of Senators Dillingham;, Nelson Patterson and Burn ham and two large parties of Representatives in Congress, one of them containing Speaker Cannon and Appropriations Committee Chairman Tawney and many other members These visits aided in getting Delegate to Congress And so it has been. Senators and Representatives who have visited AL aska have, generally speaking, gone back to Wash ington with the will to do well for the people of the Territory, and they have been easily persuaded to aid in the passage of legislation that the times seemed to demand
 All things considered experience suggests that we ought to encourage visits from Senators and Representatives and other high officials Let us give them all good times, tell them all about the Territory and the need of the hour and trust to luck and the law of averages

Dictatorship in Venezuela.
Cincinnati Enouirer. )


 For quite decades General Juan Vicente Gomez has been the Dictator of Venezuela. During his reign there has been in progress of sort Com merce has been permitted to develop, and the for egn trade of Venezuela has come to be quite pros porous. But the rights of citizens whatever that phrase means in this modern age, have been com pletely lost. As in most countries, in the stage of development, there but two factors about which to organize the effective power of the State namely the land owners and the clergy. Working through these two elements of the Nation, Gomez has built up party machine" of some 10000 troops under arms, most of which put in their free hours on Gomezs haciendas, cultivatng bananas or coffee
 With the approach of the elections, which take place every seven years, in form at least the try has been turned upside down By military revots and general disorders So it comes as something of surprise that President Gomez has turned the reins of government over to the Supreme Court in accordance with the provision of the constitution The latter body has chosen of their number to act as Provisional President until permanent President can be chosen.
 Perhaps Venezuela will have orderly election for once in its history But Gomez must not be forgotten After many years of absolute power he is not likely to yield the privileges of a modern Louis XIV. readily

DOLLAR LINER
ISUNDAMACED
Hits Bahama Reef But
Probably Will Con-
tinue Voyage

NEW YORK. Jan. 2l.-P-The
Dollar Line was informed today that
the steamship President Garfield,
which grounded on a coral reef in
the Bahamas, was unchanged and
that in all probability it could be
r~efioated, pick up its passengers at
Nassau, where they were taken by
the rescue ship Pan-America Of the
Munson Line, and continue its Jour
ney around the world.
Captain r. r. Quinn Of the Presi-
dent Garfield informed the Dollar
Line that the water in the ballast
tanks had been pumped out to light
en- the ship and that anchors had
been dropped TO steady her against
rolling in the swell. She was not
taking any water, he said.
The Pan-America went to the as
sistance Of the President Garfield
when the ship sent out an SOS call
az 1920 a. m. yesterday. The distress
call was followed By wireless mess
ages saying the Dollar liner was
aground on the Matanilla reefs az the
northern tip Of the Bahama Islands.
