CHAPTER 3. NAPOLEON AGAIN

Major Napoleon Riccoli rode at their head, lokoing, according to his wont, as, Napoleonic as possi- ble. Thus, he reflected, must his great ancestor-well, no, perhaps not exactly ancestor = his great namesake, prototype, forerunner, exemplar, what you will, have look ed on the Retreat from Moscow.
 Not that this Napoleon was re- treating, of course. Au contraire, advancing. Very much so. Ad- vancing a good deal farther than some people proposed, expected or intended
 Ho, ho! Advancing indeed. =. And with an independent conn mand An independent command, at last; the chance for which this Man of Destiny had waited so long; worked and waited, plotted and schemed.

SHOULD PROCEED WITH CAUTION.

Old age pensions are coming more and more to be recognized as among the things that organized society must provide. Each year one or two more States join the list of those paying such allowances to it's aged citizens Alaska for many years has had a modified old age pension. But it has never felt it could venture into the field unrestricted. It hasn't been question of willingness. Rather, an inability to devise ways and of defraying the cost without imposing too great a burden upon industries and individuals in the shape of taxation
 The bill which Representative Nerland, Republi- can of the Fourth Division, recently introduced is an outright old age pension bill It would wipe out the barrier of the limiting date January 1, 1906, in the existing law and extend the benefits of the system to every indgent person in the Territory SO or more years old who has resided here for % years No one will gainsay that the measure is worthy in purpose.
 But there is than little doubt as to it: timeness just now. If anyone feels that the Terri tory ought to incur added burdens requiring expend ture of public funds during the coming bienniun let him study the message delivered to the Legsla ture last Wednesday by Gov.

We wish two former Presidents of the United States-one Democrat, the other a Republican might have lived to see Congress and the States moving at last to repeal the Eighteenth Amend ment, to which both these Presidents strongly openly, from deep conviction, opposed.
 Woodrow Wilson viewed nationwide Prohibition law as "the wrong way of doing the right thing Earlier, in his Constitutional Government in the United States" he admirably stated the fundamental American principle which should have made an Eighteenth Amendment impossible:
 Moral and social questions originally left
 to the several States for settlement can be
 drawn into the field of Federal authority
 only at the expense of self-dependence and
 efficiency of the several communities of
 which our complex body polite is made up.
 Paternal morals, morals enforced by the
 judgment and choices of the central author ity at Washington, do not and not
 create vital habits or methods of life unless sustained by local opinion and purpose, local prejudice and convenience-unless support ed by local convenience and interest; and only communities capable of taking of themselves will taken together, constitute a nation capable of vital action and con-
 trol You cannot atrophy the parts without
 atrophying the whole. William Howard Taft, in 1918, predicted wtf almost uncanny accuracy the evils that have re- suited from nationwide Prohibition. He said The business of manufacturing alcohol, liquor and beer will go out of the hands , of law-abiding members of the community, i and will be transferred to the quasi-criminal class.
 The reaching out of the great central | power to brush the doorsteps of the local 1 communities, far removed geographically
 and politically from Washington, will be irritating in such States nd communities, | and will be strain upon the bond of the national Union. :. It is doubtful whether the serious loss | to the national revenues which it will en- | tail may not outweigh the actual benefits. Here two wise Presidents who saw deeply and clearly into the great national mistake of Pro- hbition
 Let us not forget them as, after thirteen years, begin the repeal action which is belatec tribute to their wisdom.

n. D. ACCIDENTS ON
DOWNWARD TREND
Premium Collections and Pay
ment Figures Not so Fav-
orabIe, WenzeI Says

With q reduction Of 81 per cent
over the first quarter Of 1880, the &C
cident records for the first three
months Of 1888 show a trend toward
more normal conditions, according to
r. E. Wenzel, chairman Of the work.
mems compensa> N bureau.
Wenzel said the accident records
show q trend towards more normal
conditions, but the depression causes"
have not been entirely eliminated.
Premium collection figures and COM
pensation payment figures do not
show up as favorably, he said.
There were 1,147 accidents for the
first quarter Of 1888, he said. compar-
ing the total to 1871 in 1880, 1921 in
1881, and 1919 in 1882. This discloses
q 81 per cent reduction over 1890 In
the number of accidents, Wenzel
pointed out.
Premium collection figures and
compensation payment figures how
ever. do not show up as favorably.
Premium collections in January and
February of this year are IS per cent
below those of 1890, while compensa-
ton payments are only IA per cent
below those of 1890" Wenzel stated.
Compared, therefore, with payroll,
or man-hour exposure, the accident
reduction may be taken only as a
slight trend and must continue to a
more pronounced change before the
assumption may be made that We have
returned to normal loss basis.
The really hopeful sign lies in this
fact: That compensation costs are
slightly below those of January and
February. 1882, the bureaus worst
year, and premium income is some
what higher for that period"
