AN OPPORTUNITY.

While in Juneau the other day w. Leslie 4aw' Superintendent of the Sheldon Jackson School at Sitka, said there are points in Alaska where stu dents who desire to continue their work at the Sitka school may be unable to do so on account of the failure to make enough money fishing this year to pay their tuition.
 The Sheldon Jackson School is doing good work and it will be just too bad if there are capable young people whom the depression will prevent continuing their efforts to get an education there This suggests that it would be mighty fine thing if some of those who have in the past shown great interest in that institution of learning or others would create fund from which to lend pupils that are in straitened circumstances money to continue their school work and permit them to repay it later That system being followed all over the country. Here seems to be a place that it could be very wisely employed

Football of Politics.
(New York World Telegram. )

 In all the columns of comment on the Prohib ion phase of President Hoovers acceptance speed othing is more pertinent than that contained he statement by Dr. Nicholas Murray Butle resident of Columbia University, in which he say Any semblance of Congressional authority over State action in regard to liquor traffic control would prove to be the source of new and grave problems and difficulties and would make the liquor question the per petua football of politics, both State and Federal It is an entirely impractical sug- gestion and will so appear the more it is studied and discussed.
 All that we need to carry this difficult problem toward solution is the unconditional repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment The present Constitution and public opinion will do the rest
 Just now be it remembered, the saloon has not gone" anywhere except under ground.a Give us repeal and we can quickly end it's existence, whether open or con- cealed Incidentally there is the sum of about $1,50000o,00O waiting to be picked up and added to the public revenues in re- lief of taxation

Striking Farmers.
Cincinnati Enduirer.l

,r F Cincinnati Enqurer)
 It would be difficult to conceive a futile device to raise agricultural prices than the farm CTS strike lately attempted in Iowa and neghbor- ing States This scheme to stop buying and selling among farmers for period of 30 days destined to fail first because it reached but limited area and second because the power of the State would be used against it if it actually threatened starva- ton.
 Farm prices determined by the conditions of demand and supply over immense area For some products of which have an export surplus, the price is the world price. Production and con- sumption in score of countries are involved. Obviously the passive resistance Of group of pro- ducers in a small is not going to change the fundamental conditions of agriculture.
 If the farmers of this and other regions were to the determination n limiting their yearto-year production and in the use of coopera- tive marketing, there might be chance of improv- ing prices ultimately. But such control over the conditions of competition in their vast market seems beyond the reach of producers scantily organized farmers
 For the present, it looks as though the farmer will have to be a fatalist, and hope for better prices Efforts to boost prices in his own locality will njure him more than the consumer.

CHAPTER 30. WAITING

Am I mad or just utterly bad and fickle?" Sondra wondered hcpelessly. "Only a little while ago I felt like this when Mark went away. :. no,-rot like this it wasn't anything like this. I was sorry. '. sad. .. but it didn't feel like the end of .the world-as this does"
 And Anderson believed that when she saw Mark again all would be we'll
 It made her want to laugh, and it made her want to weep
 She could hear him talking to Ellen, and presently he came back and stood beside her.
 Goodbye, Sondra."
 She raised her eyes to his face. Goodbye" she said flippantly. Her hands were resting on the table behind her and she did not offer to move them.
 A little quiver of emotion cross ed his face.
 T want you to be happy-that's all that matters he said.
 Thank you" she laughed--it seemed so strange that he should wish her happiness when he was taking it from her.
 Wont you shake hands with me. Sondra?"

 Presently he came across to her,
 The boat won't be in for an hour yet, Sondra. We'll go and get something to eat. You must be hungry"
 They had left the shore almost at daybreak; Mrs. Merriman who had stayed over night with Son. dra had insisted on everyone's be- ing ready at an entirely unneces- sary hour.
 I'm not hungry" Sondra said ir answer to Andersons sugges- ton. But We will go if you like ,
 Sondra drank some coffee but she would not eat.
 She sat almost silent, listening to Mrs. Merriman's cease less ques- tioning.
 Do you think he will be very ill?-oughtn't we to have brought doctor? How shall We get him home?
 It was relief when she left them and wandered outside to see if there was any further news oi the boat. rYou haven't eaten anything Sondra?" Anderson said. | I'm rot hungry
 She looked at him with indif- ferent eyes; he was so calm anc undisturbed, and yet if he loved her he must surely be suffering just q little?

JUNEAU'S BUSINESS COLLEGE.

 She had not seen Anderson since .he evening he left her at the cottage till this morning when he had motored her up with Marks mother to meet the boat.
 Tt had seemed a queer sort of journey-the three of them united by such strange ties-divided by emotions even more strange.
 Sondra knew that Mrs. Merri- man disliked her and disapproved of her; but it did not seem to mat ter-nothing mattered.

THAT SUGGESTED ENGLISH LOAN.

Possibly that lively stock market, disclosing as it did that there is still lot of cash in this country is the real cause behind the visit to the United States of the President of the Bank of England. It is believed by that he is looking for a loan; that he is after the dough.
 Well, it would be we'll if he asks for money, to tell him loan will be considered when the Euro pean debt reduced enough to re-establish credit in this country Americans ought to be somewhat fed up those long time foreign loans that do not pay interest.
