FALLEN RADICALS"

In it's closing hours, Congress has been considering another bill aimed at alien radicals; and az is so often the case these measures, it is a thoroughly in- defensible one. The bill in ques- tion would make adherence to Communism automatic grounds for deportation for any alien. It is so loosely drawn that under it any foreign college professor ex- blaming the principles of Marx in the classroom might be de- ported. Membership in any or ganization affiliated, however indirectly, with the Communist International would also be grounds for deportation, re- gardless of the fact that organi- zations, like individuals, are quite capable of changing their minds. While expulsion from the country awaits the Communist who proposes to overthrow a government by force, there is a specific exemption for the alien who plans to overthrow a Com muniSt government anywhere by force. In short, this bad bill displays at it's worst the mar rowness, prejudice and un- Americanism which so often mark the attitude of the De- partment of Labor in it's deal- ings with foreigners.-The New Republic.

SENATOR NORRIS ON REPEAL

Outright repeal of the eight eenth amendment would take several years. I have been a pro- hibitionist and I believe in it now as much as ever, but I can't get away from the fact that it hasn't been satisfactory.
 "I am not sure but that we have tried it long enough to be sure it won't be satisfactory, but I don't want to leave it wide open.
 "It may be that modification of the Volstead act will be a necessary experiment that we will have to try, which I think we can do under the constitu- tion. If we are going to try an- other experiment we. could give a different definition to intoxi- eating liquor by increasing the alcoholic content. That will en- able congress to tax any beve"- age with an alcoholic content that comes below that definition.
 Feel The Way
 T have been thinking serious ly of the problem for six months. But no matter how much I have believed in prohibition, I can't close my eyes to the fact that the country seems to be the oth- CT way and that enforcement seems to be a failure. I don't know that this will be any bet ter. We will have to feel our way and follow some of the sugges- tions of the Wickersham com- mission. I don't want to be a crank about it, but I have been terribly disappointed in the way the law has worked out.
 "I am not sure but that it is the best way out and incidental lv it would bring in new revenue and that appeals to me-"

POISONOUS DRINK By Walt Mason

The jake" described as ging- cry, that's sold for 40 cents, has done unmeaSured injury to countless locoed gents. They drink the stuff from chalices in some sequestered den, and then they have paralysis, and never walk again. Man takes a drink Of aconite, disguised as collie sure, then lies upon his back O. night, with pains he can't en- dure. Upon his pallet pillowy he lies and groans all day, and thinks of bayous billowy, whose waters do not slay He thinks about the water main whose contents used to cheer such men as Alan Quatermain, and Robert J. Elsmere. The waters always drinkable, and who would pass it up for poisons most unthink- able, served in dirty cup? The water of a cataract man drinks without pain, and always, by that latter act, he shows that he is sane. The beaker you are f1ng- ering invites you to the hearse; :; it means death that's lingering, despair, and all things worse. The men who are dispensing it, and grinning in the act-and doubtless they are sensing it. are murderers in fact. They poi son with impunity the young, the strong, the fair, and then they have immunity from the electric chair. I take the stall wart attitude-though I may be a chump-that we should show our gratitude to those who boost the pump.

PROFITS FOR
 GASBAG OWNERS

It will warm the cookies of your heart, We know, to learn that in these days of economy congress recently passed bill to hand from $7,OOO,0OO to $1O,OO0,- 900 a year to an airship company for trundling a dirigible back and forth across the Pacific.
 All the airship company has to do is carry one letter, and it will get $35 a mile. A round trip to the Orient will net it $350, ,000! Its entire operating cost for the trip couldn't possibly be more than one-tenth of that amount.
 The ship itself would cost only S, ,OO0, ,0O0-and so the lucky owners would make double the,

Here we stand, perched on the brink of a brand new year. Be- fore us lie 365 unsullied days to do with what we will. All that the last will and testament of old Father Time contained was the legacy of hours, minutes, days and weeks. Precious gifts, those, if we are not afraid to use them to the best advantage.
 Not as individuals, not as states, not as a nation have we been solely towards the past year, but taking us as a whole there has been little to recom- mend us for hero awards for the manner in which we have utiliz- led the past twelve months that came to us just as clean and promising a year ago as the new year comes to us tomorrow. Collectively we harbored the iGea that it couldn't be undone. No one man or even no group of men could have done a great deal to improve the lot of all of us, but with the dawn of 1881 came the opportunity to do things for our nation and the world. We passed up the oppor- tunity, and just as surely will we pass the one offered with the advent of 1882 unless we can change our attitude from coWed pessimism to smiling optimism. = Herald Advance. s.

THEY SHOULD BE SATISFIED

The last consignment of a shipment of almost one million paper boxes arrived at the Ma keen plant of the Naket Packing Company recently on a boat of the Alaska Steamship Company from Seattle. The entire ship ment is believed to be the largest consignment of boxes to one canner received at Alyaskan ports this year.
 Four ships carried it to the Waterfall, Hidden Inlet, Union Bay and Nakeen plants of the packing concern. The boxes will be filled with salmon and the other products of the company and re-shipped to American ports. This type of solid fibre containers has continued to re- place heavier materials for ship ping, exporters report.
 The boxes were made by Ro- bert Gaylord, Inc, of St. Louis, Mo-, In transit from Oakland, Calif., on a coastWise steamer the cargo was divided into four lots at Seattle, and transferred from one boat to several others for the trip to the four Alaskan ports. Maneuvers involved in the transfer on Puget Sound are said to have attracted attention up and down the Pacific coast The last consignment left Seat tie May 26.

WAS w. J. BRYAN RIGHT By J. R. Little ("S0urdough")


 Ones memory goes back to the exciting days of 1896 when William Jennings Byran thrilled the world with his famous speech in Chicago, and started the United States throbbing with an agigitated discussion of mon ey MT. Byran, to his last breath maintained that he was right; that what was needed to bring good times was more money in circulation. This he proposed to bring about by the free coinage Of silver which was to be placed i'll a relationship to gold at a ratio of sixteen to one. MT. Bryan always insisted that the great influx of gold followed shortly after the heated cam paign between himself and Mo Kinley as a vindication of his claim that more money in cir culation would m can better times. \.
 Today the average man is out of money. He has no work to do by which to earn more money. He cannot borrow any money; he cannot sell, except at sac rif1ce, any of his property in or der to obtain money. A condition such as exists today is indeed sufficient cause for our marking back to the days of free silver and dwell once more upon MT. Bryan's argument for m o r e money. Even the most severe of MT. Bryan's critics have said frankly that MT. Bryan was in the right more often than in the wrong. Maybe the fact is he was right in the silver contention. There is not a person who has been broke or on the verge of it who has not experienced the electrical thrill following the earning of a few dollars. The feel of money in his pocket thrilled him through and through and put new hope, new aspiration, new vigor in him. He could put on a new suit, touch up his person, and face the world new man. What a bless ing it would be if every man out of work and broke today could but experience a feeling of this kind even for a few weeks.
 The whole thought force of the country would be switched ever night into a mighty, dyna- mic expression of faith in our country, and all it takes is con- f1dence to restore us again to our normal selves us back to the good old American spirit of achievement.
 Today, the gold standard is tottering, and it is scarcely ne- cessary to reiterate what is all ready known. But for emphasis, let me remind you that Great Britain and a few other coun-> tries have already abandoned the gold standard. The United States and France hold control of the gold supply, but so far as the United States is concerned, the gold supply is entirely in for our own use at home.
 Many of our leading states men are looking favorably upon bringing back silver and raising again the question of bi-metal- ism. Is it not possible to revive at this time an interest in MT. Bryan's contentious? We have idle silver mines ready to pro- duce. The mines are ready, with 3 little brushing up of machin- cry and pumping out of water, to go right ahead producing.
