 Another volume of the history of America writ ten in the biographies of those who have been out standing in its making is to be published this week the eleventh volume of the Dictionary of Am erican Biography. It covers not given chron- oogical period but the entire range of human life in what is the United States from the coming lof Laudonniere in 1862 in Florida and La Sale ill the Mississippi Valley in 1879 and La Verendrye lin the farther West, to Vachel Lindsay, who died only year ago. and Raoul Lufbery, the greatest American ace in the World War.

Were the living also included there would be another brother in their company
 There strange associations, due to the alpna- betical order in which the names appear: Joseph Larned a New York fire engine pioneer; Josephus Larned the Buffalo librarian and William Augustus Larned the champion tennis player, occupying the opening pages of the volume Further on most notorious character, Lewis Lttlepage, soldier of fortune, who for a time chamberlain to the King of Poland finds himself in intimate associa- tion with Bishop Littlejohn on the side and the Unitarian clergyman Abiel Abbot Livermore on the other Not far away sit two Indian chiefs, Little Crow " whose power due to his oratorical abilities and not .his military talents, and Little Turtle "who adopted some American ways and &C., quired white mans disease, gout" And the fight ing McCooks" there side by side with their clerical brother who became authority on ants and spiders. Jack London and Meyer London are companioned. Nicholas Longworth the horticultur- st and Nicholas Longworth the Speaker, his great grandson become of age.

OBSTRUCTION BY DRYS.

As indicated by the repeal vote in the first Il States to act on the resolution to take the Eighteenth Amendment out of the Federal Consti- tuition, the landslide of ballots against Prohibition in the States of Iowa, Connecticut and New Hamp- shire the last three to hold elections proves that the United States has made up it's mind to do away with that great mistake in public policy. The vote in Iowa is just as significant it in Indiana earlier this month Not even the most fanatical Drys any longer have the slightest hope left of defeating the repeal resolution. On the strength of the vote in the 14 States reporting to date, it would not be at all surprising if not a single State rejected the resolution.
 The Dry tactics directed toward obstruct- ing vote the question rather than to winning. In California an effort made to prevent the vote by action in the State courts which, however, failure In Ohio the Drys have apparently been successful in blocking a vote there next Fall. They have obtained sufficient number of signatures to a petition calling for referendum on measure passed by the State Legislature that provides for a vote in November delegates to a convention to consider ratification of the repeal amendment. The Vets will take the matter to the courts to determine whether referendum will apply in such It is generally admitted that such referendum would approve the election of delegates and that the State will ratify the repeal resolution when t is given the chance, Delay is the only thing the Drys tan hope to gain t " E T
 policy of obstruction cannot benefit the Drys in the end It is likely to injure the cause of true temperance by arousing the people to such an extent that they will reject reasonable propositions for State liquor control that might be advanced in good faith by the Dry element
 The Dry is already lost. Their campaign has broken down everywhere Funds are short. Tn the Middle West source of large revenues for them, there is an indifference and apathy that almost always accompanies hopeless fight. Without finances, no campaign organization is possible. Speakers and publicity have been limited. Efforts to arouse the people by creating saloon bogy have been dismal failures. There no saloons and saloonkeepers to point to horrible examples Thus instead of confidently making aggressive drive, such as would have swept the rural districts Is years the Dry strategists largely centering on movements designed to prevent vote in as many States possible, hoping thereby to delay defeat until after next Spring

Mckinley Park.
Anchorage Times.)

The annual opening season for visitors to Mo Kiney Park is at hand. The occasion recalls the fact that this magnificent and matchless American scenic and recreational reservation lies in the front yard of Anchorage-wth majestic Mount Mckinley the loftiest eminence in America, and very heart and soul of this grand playground of the nation plainly visible from Anchorage.
 AS time goes on Mount Mckinley will prove one of the greatest assets of Alaska. It may seem idle to some to suggest such thing-but climate and scenic wonder constitute the lure and charm lin various favored corners of the earth which have been capitalized for millions and made sources of vast continuous sources of revenues California capitalized her climate and with it made Hollywood the worlds moving picture metropolis with hundreds of millions of investment involved Italy and other countries along the Mediterranean long ago capi- talized their balmy cimate-and the Riveira will never lose its pull on the public favorite play ground. Florida has capitalized her mild and saubrious climate and reaps millions annually from the recreaton-seekng classes from the more severe northern climes
 | Scandinavia and Switzerland have capitalized their glaciers and their snowy mountains and winter sports. New York has done the same at Lake Placid, and Montreal and Quebec with their winter sports have had similar experience. Mount Mckinley just now is looked upon as a mecca for the few hardier who will travel afar
 in summer to enjoy it's charms. In time the world will discover the wonders of it's winter attributes and the same may be said in respect to winter sports and allurements of Interior Alaska as a whole.

Subs cribers on Sonny Gray's route will miss his call "Empire!" and glimpse of his flaming thatch of hair tonight, and perhaps for a few days.
 Sonny and several of his friends rented a car this morning to go swimming, according to his father, Dolly Gray, and started happily for a days swimming and sunburn. Out on the road a ways the car
 skidded into a ditch and Sonny
 was thrown out, sustaining a pain |ful gash in his head. Dr. Pigg took two stitches in the wound and confined Sonny to his home for several days.
 The other boys were uninjured.

CONFERENCE FORGETS EASILY.

In the short period that has elapsed since the opening of the World Economic Conference at London the delegates assembled there to undertake to end some of the difficulties in the way of world recovery seem to have forgotten the earnest ad- monitions of Prime Minister Ramsay Macdonald oi Great Britain in his initial keynote address. The spirit of that speech encouraging and foStered the hope that once again opportunity would be presented to the peoples of the world to return to the paths of happiness and prosperity
 Among other things the British Prime Minister declared:
 No nation can permanently enrich itself
 at the expense of others. Mutual enrich
 ment is condition of individual enrichment.
 Nationalism in the sphere of politics
 may be essential to human freedom Self
 sufficient nationalsm in economics is the
 death knell of advancing prosperity.
 The make the world
 omic unit the better it will be for each
 nation The various governments must
 face their problems of internal indus
 trial policy . Fate of generations may
 well depend upon the courage, sincerity and
 width of view which to show during
 the next few weeks. We must not fail.
 Statesmanship today will be judged by what
 it devises to dispel the stern realities of the
 present and to anticipate the requirements
 of the future. . We have not come to
 discuss economic theories and general
 ites, but to make practical proposals to meet
 urgent necessities. Let it tthe con-
 ferencel mark the end of the years of un-
 certainties and of policies which have
 brought distress upon us all
 Yet there is insstent demand from some o the delegations discussing economic theories Economists themselves add to the confusion b. disputations and arguments Nationalism will no down until it's claims first considered and it demands partly met.
