A VANISHED PROFESSION.

Word has gone out from Washington that thls Government of is in need of expert tasters- to test the food and drink of suspicious officials who fear poison plots, but far more important and agreeable task. To sample the of distillers and tell the officials in control of the liquor regu- lations which of the bottles contain rye and which bourbon, and the quality of each.
 decade and half ago the Government would have been overwhelmed with the response to such invitation. Imagine the delight in slipping fine old Monongahela and Jasper rye imbibing rare Omar Khayyam, Old Hermitage, McBrayer Jack Daniels and some of the other bourbons of bygone day But the oldtimers have mostly passed, or their palates roughened with the eoarser drinks of the Prohibition The tongues sported by the inn bbers of fourteen years of dry explosives found to be shriveled and tanned divorced from deli cate sensation the sole of a shoe. Gin, with all it's deceptive ssterhood of illicit decoctons, exrs, dis llatons, lamentations and combinations of batatub percentage, has so pickled the paates of thos who looked the Prohibition cup that the bes. and most respected among drinkers are in doubt whether what they drink is sweet, sour,

THE SPIRIT OF VIOLENCE.

Throughout a long depression our people have been conspcuously patient, and disorder or violence has been the exception. It is a record unique among the nations of the world. America has every right to be proud of those qualities of fortitude ana fair play which have enabled it to pull through so trying an interval of hardship
 recent months, however, and especially Tn recent weeks just enduring recovery has come within reach have witnessed dlsturplng growth of violence. In certain industrial disputes that have evolved into riots in the recurrence oI mob action to punish offenders against the law ths spirit of violence manifests itself Most distressing of all, that violence appears to have certain ap- proval among the people of the communities affect- ed and in some has won the support of hlgh State officials-the very whose sworn duty IS to uphold the law
 The rule of the mob is a contagious phenomenon The spirit of violence is in the nature of soclal cancer which spreads reentlessly through the pody polite unless Governors and the governed alike use their utmost powers to check it's spread.
 The recurrence of this spirit of violence, this penchant for direct action by the mob, imposes upon every thinking citizen and upon every public officer of every State and county and city a grave re- sponsibility. We must combat by our words ana our example the strength of mob rule.

Alaska's Way Upward.

 What is the industry through which Alaska will achieve her greatest prosperity and spendor? The answer is plain enough It is mining
 With fisheries second to none in the world thlS resource is already developed to the degree the GOV ernment must practice conservation Wlth maeni- fcent forests among the best in the nation, they are for the present without market ana nave but fractional possibility compared to the mineral wealth this vast domain and many years II not generations may lapse before the timber becomes an economic factor Furs and agriculture whaling, seal ing scenic attractions and varied industries VIII help to contribute to the grand aggregate o acneVe- ment
 But mining is the outstanding industry the one founded on incalcuabe resources of hidden and almost limitless deposits of mineral on Whch the future greatness of this land must rest | For that reason it behooves AlaskanS ana the people of the nation at large do everything pos sibe to speed the day of maximum development | of the mineral resources of Alaska
 Many movements can be inaugurated to accel- crate the development of the Territorys minerals Not the least of these and the most essential right now get more prospectors in the fleld organize la mining agency; induce capital to come this way 1 The details of this program can well be lald down by those familiar with the needs and the conditions.
 The one big essential now is to get over the conviction in the minds of Alaskans and Of the Federal Government and all others who may aid that it will pay and pay handsomely to launch out immediately in the big drive for mineral de- veopment. Those who have caught the spirit must lead off The thing is to get started and keep l at it.
 Time for action was more opportune than fright The world is crying for gold. All factors and influences favorable to development of min eral resources of the nations particularly gold Let gold be the lode stone and the star-and drive ahead. Mining is Aaska's great bet-her premier opportunity-and through it will she achieve an indisputable place in the front rank.
