THE GREAT
QUESTION

Granting that proper function is
necessary to life-Why is it that SO
many people fail to realize that
power, or NERVE FORCE, is the
main thing that governs and pro-
duces function?
Of course, air, water and the pro-
per foods are needed, but without
nerve force they are useless in our
bodies
Nerve force, power or life, what
ever you wish to call it, distinguish
es the living from the dead. And just
so, the organs of the body (not one
but alb depend on nerve force for
the power necessary to perform
properly their functions.
If you have a weak liver, heart,
lungs, stomach or kidneys, etc,
don't you think that lack of nerve
force or power offers the most logi-
cal, sensible. reason you ever heard
for the condition?
Chiropractors KNOW THE CAUSE
Of poor nerve supply and lack of
power, resulting in disease, and are
proving it every day.

M'K|NLEY PARK MINER
 AND TRAPPER AWAITS
 RETURN BETTER PRICES

When the world depression comes to an end and copper prices get back to normal, there may be some big development in the Me- Kinlev Park district. At any rate, w T. Shannon, we'll known pros pector of that section of Alaska, who was in Anchorage perfecting title to his homestead in the vicin- itv of Honolulu station, believes he has located one of the biggest cop per propositions in the Territory and he is patiently awaiting the time when he can interest capital in the development of his proper ty. says the Anchorage Times.
 MT. Shannon has the reputation of being one of the best informed prospectors in the hills, and he is confident that the claims he has located some day will provide large and continuing tonnage for the AL aska Railroad.
 The value of the ore body has been determined to the satiSfac- tion of MT. Shannon, by his own tests and development work, but he is hopeful that the investiga- tions of the U. s Geological Sur vey, which are now in progress in several areas adjacent to the Alas ka Railroad, will be extended to in clude his district. There is sur vey party already in the neighbor- hood of the Shannon discovery and one of the missions which brought MT. Shannon to Anchor age was to bring his discovery to ! the attention of the geologists. MT. Shannon was the original discoverer of the so-called Copper mountain copper area, but his later and more important discov- iery is some distance from Copper mountain, Or Mount Eielsno, as it is now officially known.
 In addition to the copper pros pect he has located, Mr. Stannon has what he regards as a very promising quicksilver proposition in the same neighborhood, but he has not yet done sufficient work there to determine it's real value.
 During the winter months, when the hills are closed to prospecting, MT. Shannon devotes his attention to trapping. He has trap line close to the boundary of Mckinley Park and last winter made fair ly large catch of fox and marten. But prices were so low last spring that he refused to part with tilc belts. He is holding them, as III the case of his copper property, until conditions are more favora- l h1p

Use Care to Avoid Needle Accidents

There are, no doubt, authentic
cases in which needles have pene-
trated the body and moved on to
other places. In the vast majority
of cases the needle scion moves
more than a few inches.
There seem to be few, if any, &C.
tua1 records of cases in which
needles have Travelled long dis
tances as, for example, from the
finger to the foot.
Tt is, Of course, quite conceivable
that a person may stick a finger and
find a portion Of needle in the foot
later in life, but it remains to be
proved that it is the same needle.
A few simple suggestions are Civ
en- as to the avoidance of needle &C
cidents:
1. Sew only in a light room and in
comfortable position.
2. Keep needles in a definite place.
Don't park" them in the wall pa
per or furniture. When a needle is
not in use keep it threaded to in
sure its detection if lost.
3. Keep the fingers well away
from the needles in sewing ma
chimes.
4. Use thimble.
5. Inspect garments that have
been repaired before washing or
wearing.

An Absurd Issue

AS rule when we begin to attribute unpleasant
characteristics to our neghbors, we merely are ex
posing some weakness of our own
That to be what is happening in the nresen+
controversy as to whether the Battle of Yorktown
shall be part of pageant that is to celebrate the
Washington bicentennisl next year.
Certain well-intentioned folks fear that Great
Britain would be offended at representation of her
yorktown defeat they convict Great Britain of a
pettiness and lingering rancor of which she gives
no visible evidence.
Just off Trafalgar square, in the heart of London
statue of George Washington occupies place of
honor. Who can imagine statue of King George
the one of revolutionary times or any succeeding
one-on Michigan boulevard or for that matter any,
where in this country?
A look into the Encyclopedia Britannica is in
structiye There Chatham and Burke and other
great British statesmen who opposed the war of 1776
against the American colonies are not treated as
traitors and outcasts. They were not jailed while
they were carrying on their fight
Shortly after that same Yorktown battle. Burke
was honored by being given high Office in his gov
eminent, and today the encyclopedia says of him:
I'm the events which ended with the emancipation
OF the American colonies from the monarchy Burkes
political genius shone with an effugence that was
worthy of the great affairs on which it shed so mag
nifcent an illumination.
His speeches are almost the one monument of
the great struggle which lover of Englih great
ness can look back with pride and a sense of
worthiness"

Paving for Prohibition

Direct expenditures of the bureau of prohibition
In its first year under the department Of justice
amounted to cents per CAPITA according to Prohib-
ton Director Woodcock
Such figures are apt to be misleading for the total
great deal more than the amount spent by Mr.
(Woodcock's establishment.
This year for instance, the bureau Of prohibition
has been allowed $11 1863 900 by congress- The bureau
of industrial alcohol will spend close to $5000OO0
At least half and probably Of the coast guards
appropriation of $33OOO0OO will be used to check
liquor smuggling.
The department of justice will spend at least
s1OOOO0OO of its regular appropriation in prosecu-
Ing and imprsoning prohibition violators The secret
service the customs bureau and the border patrols
will spend other millions
So the total cost is somewhere around $45,ooooo0,
and Mr. Woodcock's per capita estimate was based
only on the $95O0OOO his bureau spent last year.
Nor is that per capita cost by any means equally
Ssivided Internal statistics just published
show that last fiscal year the seventeen states which
never have enacted have repealed state enforce
nent laws pay about 60 per cent of all income taxes
They not only are kept dry by their sister states
hit are forced to foot most of the bills for the pro-
Inhibition army.
These states-California, Connecticut, Delaware
Illinois, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mime
sofa. Missouri, Montana, New jersey Nevada New
York. Pennsylvania Rhode Island, Vermont and Wis
consn-contain nearly half of the country's popua-
ton. some 100000 of our 122OOooOO The other
half keeps them dry.

Above the Law

j If the cleaning of the statehouse (phys-
ically) results in nothing else it will serve to
call attention to two facts.
The first Of these is that deputies Of the
Governor, auditor and secretary of state,
spent $4,000 of the peoples money on the
job without any competitive bids and in de-
fance of the law provided to safeguard
against just such waste or worse of public
funds.
The other is that a very kind Democratic
legislature placed huge funds at the arbi-
trary disposal Of the Governor after making
campaign against any such action.
The law regarding competition is ruth
iessly showed aside and each day brings more
facts to indicate that there was a very real
reason why no open competition was held
on the job. 1t may be asserted that other
estimates for many thousands Of dollars less
were given to state officials and offers to do
exactly the same work had been made at
prices from $4,000 to $4,000 less than will
be paid for this job unless some state official
or citizen takes steps to stop the payment.
There are at least a half dozen firms In
Indianapolis engaged in this kind of work
and not one of these was asked to submit
bid or an estmate-at least when the Sc
cret decision had been made to wash the face
of the building.
There are dozens Of other firms in other
cities in the state fully equipped to spray
cold steam and charcoal upon stone and
these firms would be happy to get work these
days. The job went to firm in another
state.
If it be possible for state officials to
evade the law, to give contracts without
competition, then the people are beyond pro-
lection.
Will the officials whose deputies signed
the contract dare to call in experts in this
business and give the public fair, unbiased
estimate as to what it ought to cost? If
not, why?
