Temperance Education.
Cincinnati Enquirer.)


 The call by the Rockefellers for the founding of new temperance society divorced from old groups and methods that have outlived their use fulness" is matter to engage public attention. It brings forward of the prime reasons for voting for repeal as Ohio will have the opportunity to do on November T.
 Putting Prohibition in the Constitution worse than bad democracy-t bad psychology It stopped the very movement which put it there. Logically, temperance education should have con- tinued after the Eighteenth Amendment Actually lit ceased Indeed, it had ceased when the Anti Saloon League undertook to put Prohibition in State and Federal Constitutions and to let mere man go his own way and get liquor anywhere else than in a legal place and anyhow else than legally.
 This done, the battle for temperate living and lsobriety, which began century ago in the United States, fell by the wayside, deserted even by its lerstwhe fervent workers who mstook Prohibition for enforced total abstinence and blindly regarded drinking as a thing of the past.
 Fifteen years have converted earnest men like the Rockefellers, former supporters of the Anti Saloon League and Prohibition It is to be expected that there may be first furry of excited folly over repeal But there will be a pronounced re- action just as there after the legaization of beer vast majority of those in favor of repeal are opposed to racketeerng and its evils, of which should realize that ballots cast against Prohibition lin the State and Federal Constitutions the be- ginning of temperance education.

U. s. SIMPLIFYING COMPANY REPORT.

The annual report of the United States Smelling Company, which is the parent organization Of the Fairbanks Exploration Company and Hammon Gold Fields Consolidated which are operating in the Fairbanks and Nome districts, shows of late earn ings that average about $10O0OO0 monthly. All of these earnings it should be noted do not come from the company's Alaska properties. It has number Of mines elsewhere and it's silver mines are just now beginning to have importance. However it's opera tions in the Territory are a material factor in the company's enviable showing. Its production of gold here is reported to be, at present R. F. c. prices, about s45OOOOO per year. With continued advances in the gold price, it's properties will be increasingly valuable Its will tend to induce it to expand in other fields, explore other likely areas and lead others into similar explorations That is striking illustration of how the monetary policies of President Roosevelt already aiding in the development of Alaska.

Memorial of service rather than statues of marble was stressed as the more fitting in memory of the dead yesterday afternoon by the Rev. John A. Glasse, pastor of the Northern Light Presbyterian Church, in his address at the Elks' Memorial service held by Juneau Lodge in its lodge rooms on Frank lin Street.
 An Indian potentate built the Tai Majal in memory of his beau tiful queen" said Rev. Glasse Rome erected statues of it's em- porers and heroes, while in recent years grateful nations have raised cenotaphs and memorials to their Unknown Soldiers These actions show that humanity has at al times had an abiding faith in the life hereafter"
 The memorial exercises this year beside being for all the absent brothers of the lodge, was espec- ially for those. who have passed away in the past year. They are Harry A. Pryde, J. B. Fletcher. J. B. Caro, George T. Jackson, Marion Goldstedn. Russell York.

R. A., of the A. A. A. Of the public works program, of the large debt program, in a word, of the Columbia branch of the Brains Trust.
 And it is evident enough that the present ascendency of these Cornell economists dates from the demonstration that the N. R. A. and A. A. A., however valuable they may be as measures of per- manent reconstruction, were not able to promote recovery.
 
 All these considerations do not prove that the Warren gold pol icy is sound. I do not know whether it is sound. But they do show that it is entitled to sym pathetic exposition and study, and they suggest that before cam paign or denunciation is organized, it would be useful to have cam paign of education.

STRIKING CONTRASTS.

In replying to former President Hoovers criticism because he did not send troops to San Jose to protect the kidnapers of Brooke Hart from the mob that lynched them, Gov James Rolph, Jr, of Cali forna, touched the sorest spot in the Hoover Administration expulsion by force of arms of the first Bonus Force from the National Capital. Of course, President Hoovers calling out the troops in Washington and Gov. Rolphs refusal to do so in California not in the same category.
