Redwood county is entitled to boast bit over the
splendid manner in which it's fair has weathered the
depression. By curtaing expenses and reducing the
admission price, the fair through last season

such a system would not raise the moral tone of the community. but in fact would lower it.
 As for municipal liquor stores, person with even the slightest experience in city politics will agree that they are desirable Municipal govern ment is, or ought to be, devoted to conducting the affairs that concern all of the general public; to the maintenance and operation of schools; to supervision of public health; to construction and maintenance of streets and thoroughfares; to pro-
 lection of life and property and every other matter affecting public welfare. It ought not to be con- cerned with the business of panderng to the appetite of those who desire to drink whether it is the lighter beverages hard liquors. And when it does so engage, that business will dominate all otfer interests to the disadvantage of education public improvements, public health and morals and fire and police protection @
 Thoughtful people without regard for party had hoped that the liquor traffic could be kept out of Territorial politics This probably too much to expect. It is not unlikely shall have it made an issue every two years from henceforth. But even that is much to be preferred to having it made football in municipal elections every year, which Is just what it would be if municipal liquor stores were permitted.

A LIQUOR PROGRAM.

The Republican platform for the First Division adopted by 37 members of the Gastneau Channel Republican Club here recently, is worthy of study. It specifically condemns the Board of Liquor Control under whose regulations it charges that "our girls and boys" being debauched It doesn't seem to take into consideration that the regulations of the Board specifically prohibit the sale of beer wine and hard liquor to any person under the age Of 21 years The Club and it's members must know that the Board has no police force at it's command to enforce that regulation But every municipality has such force and the power to enforce it. If Alaskan youth is being debauched which We are convinced is not true in the slightest degree, the indictment should be brought against the municipal governments and not the Territory
 The present system of liquor control Frank H. Foster, one of the members of the committee drafting the G. O. P. platform, recently told the City Council offers to Alaskan cities fine chance for exercising the purest kind of home rue.' It gives to them the opportunity to control that traffic without interference from Federal authority Based upon the authority extended by the Board of Liquor Control and through its regulations which forbid sale or gift to minors sale to drunks and to habtual drunkards, drinking of hard liquor in public places each community control the traffic and keep it within bounds of decency. Of course, if they do not grab the opportunity that is not the fault of the system but proof of the inefficlency of the municipal authorities.
 The Republicans, however, did not stop with condemnation. They propose new system. They would put in a system of local option under which any community could say whether or not it would permit the sale of beer wine and hard liquor. And broaden the powers possessed by municipal corporations to permit them to own and operate liquor stores The local option idea was advanced at a meeting of the Club some two weeks ago. H. L. Faulkner at that time pointed out to them that such system would be than useless since have county form of government. Under
 it Juneau it true, could vote dry and thus prevent the legal sale of liquor within the corporate boundaries But it could not prevent the establishment of beer parlors roadhouses and hard liquor stores outside of the boundaries on every side Nor could it say anything about their regulation once they were established It ought to be clear to anyone that

BALLAINE WOULD GO TO CONGRESS-

The Seward Gateway is authority for the state ment that John E. Ballaine, founder of Seward, is candidate for the Republican Congressional nomination from the First (Seattle) Washington district That apparently puts MT. Baaine back
 into the party in which he originally enrolled. Back in the halcyon days of the Bull Moose he was a Bull Mooser. Later he sort of gravitated around as a Progressive. little while after President Roosevelt inaugurated he showed up in Wash ington as a receptive candidate for the post as Governor of Alaska. Although he was willing to accept it appeared that willing to recognize his claims for such recognition. Maybe the Republican voters of Seattle will be more ready to perceive his sterling worth than Secretary Ickes and President Roosevelt That of course remains to be seen And though they should MT Ballaine still will have to run the gauntlet of the November elections which do not just loom auspiciously for Republican candidates

This Brains Monopoly.
(NeW York Times.)

By this time it is obvious that the Republican strategists must put every other task to one side and concentrate on the problem of rescuing brains from the monopolistic grasp of the Democratic Party. At Yale the President showed once more how simple job it is to place the Republican Party in the position of being opposed to intelligence. The Democrats getting away with it so easily because of Republican ineptitude.
 Something is wrong with the G. O. P technique. dozen years ago the Democrats much more resourceful in the face of similar situation. They snatched up Mir Hardng's Best Minds and flung it back at the majority party with tremendous effect They managed to make people believe that the Best Minds had no minds. Plainly, what the Republicans must try to do now is to popularize the belief that brains -trusters have no brains or have only added brains
