Tacomans Enjoy
Visit On Island

A letter was received recently by r.,
w. r. Martin, secretary Of the local
commercial club from e. II. Fetterolf,
secretary Of the inter-clty visitation
committee Of the Tacoma Chamber Of
Commerce, expressing the appreci-
alton Of the party for the courtesies
accorded them on their recent visit to
the Island.
Mr.. Fetterholf says In his letter.
ION behalf Of the Tacoma Chamber
Of Commerce and Its Inter-city Vista
ton Committee may express to you
our sincere appreciation for the
courtes!es extended us on our recent
goodwill visit to your district
Members Of our party had an en-
tirely enjoyable visit and were great
ly pleased with the hospitality shown
We feel that the trip did much to
better acquaint our people witt,
vashon Island, and trust that 1t has
brought a closer contact between our
communities"
On Tuesday Of last week this party
of Tacoma men visited the Island
The plans were for q golf game in the
afternoon, but inclement weather
made 1t impossible to carry out this
plan. The guests were entertained by
the executive committee at dinner
after which the Tacoma visitors pro-
vided the program at the open meet
ing of the Island Commercial Club.

IS SHOT IN FOOT.

While out hunting last week Gordon
Deppman and Chester Bibbins were
doing bit of target practice Walk
ing along the beach on Maury Island,
hunting for some new object upon
which to try their skill Gordon acci-
dentaly shot off the % rifle he was
carrying. Well trained in the manner
of carrying firearms his rifle was
pointed to the ground, but 1t never
theless found an unexpected target
The bullet went entirely through
Gordon's foot, chipping bone en-
route.

mighty nice reperations after the thing
is over. You know you often hear 1t
said that nobody got anything after
the war. But what about the German
Colonies? You don't see England or
France or any of those giving any up
dc you? Germany I imagine would
mortgage quite lot to pay for them
back. That's one of the reasons that
she is up against 1t, she hasent got
those Colonies to transfer trade and
raw material with.
China is so big and the names are
80 much alike that Its hard to tell
where she is fighting at. Texas and
Louisiana had war. Its going to
take about two years to prove that the
old Boy in Louisiana is right. He says
they shouldn't plant any Cotton at all
this year anywhere. Well they haven't
sold last years, or the years befores
crop, so who looks like they are right?
There is so many thugs they can
raise down there that they don't even
know exists. There is feed and fer
tilizing crops that grow in other parts
of the country that would be wonder
full for their land but 1t could never
get in the country on account OF the
Cotton which had monopoly and
wouldent let anything in. But IL your
Father and Grand Father raised wheat
why you must raise wheat, or II he
raised Cotton, why Cotton is the only
thing. Stick to your raising.
Then England kicked up a mess a
week or ten days ago when they did
somthing about their Gold. don't
know what 1t was, but 1t created lot
of ink at the time. It looks like the
world is on Gold Standard but only
two have got any gold, Us and France
and II things keep on like they have
there wont be any US in there.
You see France Is getting every
thing, for they went to work the day
they got back from the War, and the
rest Of the Nations went on spree, sc
France got back to normal when the
Guns stopped shooting, and we are
Just getting back, but we haven't beer
normal in so long that we don't recog
nize 1t since we got there.

Boys worried as much as the little ones
that haven't got any of 1t. Here we
talk about high taxes. Say, England
can show you some taxes, they are
getting what we will get If this unera'
ployment keeps up, and 1t should be
that way, there is lots of people able
to pay yet over here before the Gov

was what Mr.. Hoover was doing out
In Detroit telling the American Legion
not to start asking for aid again. You
see, he believes in the people helping

Now there is a lot to be said for his

CAMERON SCORES
BEER RACKETEERS
,characterizes Al capone, Chi
cago Beer Baron, as
Evil Genius

Characterizing Al Capone as an
evil genius who is undermining the
faith of the American people In re-
publican government, Scott Cameron,
Bismarck attorney, Monday spoke to
members of the Lions club on the
Chicago gangs and their methods Of
operation.
The phenomenal success Of the
Chicago beer baron. car be attributed
to his activities In the beer racket.
Cameron said. He cited figures to
the effect that the Capone faction
delivered 100000 barrels Of beer each
week at a cost to themselves Of three
dollars o barrel and which Is sold for
SIS a barrel. The gross weekly reve-
nue. finding its way into the gang
treasury runs over five millions, Cam
eron said, Of which two millions is
used as bril-, money to keep city Off
GERS and officials in line.
Perhaps the only way Of coping
with this deplorable situation, Cam
eron suggested, would be to legalize
the manufacture of 4 per cent beer.
Legitimate brewers could then COM
pete on a legal basis driving the
racketeer into oblivion.
Plans for a stag party to be given
the evening of March 16 were dis
cussed and j. P. Spies was named
chairman of the committee on A.
engagements.
Visitors present at the luncheon
were Scott Cameron, Bismarck; G. H
Morgan, Wolcott; Ole Nelson, J. L
