More news from the resin box of the coming Thanksgiving smok- CT. It looks much as though two grunt -and-groan artistis are going to help entertain the Roman au- dience.
 Both are headliners from the southwest and if they are as good as their press clippings, Juneau will not throw any pop bottles. George Ell, former sports reporter for the Deseret News of Salt Lake City, who is in town, has seen them both on the mat.

ASTORIA CELEBRATES 78RD
 COMMERCIAL FISHING SEASON

Astoria. May 2. With a civic eel ebration presided over by Queen Bernice Warila. granddaughter of one of the Columbia Rivers pioneer fishermen, Che city of Astoria paid tribute to the rivers great salmon industry on the opening day of the 73rd annual commercial salmon fishing season.
 The festivities opened in the morning with a parade of approxi- mately 200 gillnet boats and several cannery tenders down the city's wa terfront past the gaily decorated tender "Queen Chinook, on which the Queen and her two princesses held court. In the stands on the shore. more than six thousand spec tators paid tribute to the Queen and her fishermen subjects.
 Newsreel cameramen representing Universal. Fox Movietone. Pathe, Hearst Metrotone News. and Para mount were on hand to film the gala celebration and the romantic background of the salmon industry for movie audiences throughout the country. Newspaper special writers and photographers were also pres ent to report in words and pictures the 73rd anniversary of the first salmon canning on the Columbia for newspaper readers i'll all parts of America.
 Queen Bernice, whose grey eyed Blonde beauty indicates her north ern origin. was dresesd in hand spun costume of the sort worn on the west central coast of her an oestral Finland. Her two princessea were attired in the authentic native costumes of the fishing sections of Norway and Sweden. The royal boat was decorated with gaily colored flags. The royal party was seated on

where the Senate killed measures which had been passed by top heavy majorities in the House, that the House was hamstrung no matter how many of it's members might de sire a piece of legislation.
 They pointed for example to the unicameral bill itself which was giY- en a big vote in the House only to go down to sudden defeat in the Senate.
 In the Senate here, as well as in the States where similar legislation has been proposed, it has been argued that two houses provide the necessary balance. that one house serves as a check on the other and guards again faulty and perhaps too hasty passage of an important bill.
 There is a degree of merit to both arguments. But they are not argu- ments which should be decided by the legislative body It should be, as Delegate Dimond's bill proposes, a question tor the voters to decide. Ii Congress agrees. Alaskans may have a chance to do just that in 1888. - Alaska Daily Empire.

THE UNICAMERAL LEGISLATURE

If bill introduced in Congress by Delegate Anthony J. Dimond is ap- proved, voters of Alaska will have an opportunity at next years elec- tion to decide whether they want a unicameral, or one house, legisla- ture.
 The question of a single house of the Legislature is not a new one in the Territory. It has been introduced in the legislative sessions here on numerous occasions and at the re- cent session a measure to that end was passed by the House but was killed in the senate.
 Major argument in favor of the proposal was that under the present two-house system, 16 members yot- ing for it, but division, or four and four vote, in the Senate could defeat 1t. House members naturally argued, based on several actions

 After the gillnetters had paraded past the Queen, the spectators had shouted their greetings and good wishes to the fishermen for a good catch. queen Berniee gave the sig nal which started the boats racing toward their fayorite drifts for the opening of the season at high uooa.
 4 civic luncheon, and a grand ball in the evening concluded the city.s elebration of the season opening.
 All during the night. however. the fishermen were out on the river making what is reported 10 be the largest opening days catch in many years. By ten o'clock in the morning. following the opening, tons of fancy early spring Chinooks covered can nery floors At one cannery, Il is reported that deliveries averaged be- tween 400 and 300 pounds per boat. Officials at another cauuery statel chat they had received no deliveries less than 200 pounds per boat. The fish are running somewhat small in size, but are of excellent quaiiG. John Enuen was reported as having the high boat for the day. his load running something over ? 9 0 q pounds.

PEACE IS WORTH LITTLE IF
WAR CAUSES REMAIN

Terrible as war is, it is a sympt- om of the worlds troubles rather than the cause of them. To work for a warless world without realizing that the maintenance of peace is only half of the job Is to surrender to one of the greatest of delusions.
 An illustration is provided by the tragic case of the fierce Toureg tribesmen of the Sahara desert.
 For many years the Touregs were among the most dreaded fighters of Africa They fought with other tribes. they fought with each other, and they fought most of all with the French, providing the long-sufferins Foreign Legion with some of Its most desperate engagements.
 But at last the power of France grew to be too much for them. The Touaregs knuckled under before the white mems troops, just as the Sioux of our own west had knuckled under; an some three years ago the tribesmen stopped fighting and embraced the ways of peace.
 And then their troubles began.
 The Touaregs had always been nomadic tribes, roaming up and down and across the limitless Sa- hara. When peace came they stopped roaming and settled down, swarm ing to the oases and the villages, and multiplying in numbers faster than they ever had in the age-old era of unceasing warfare.
 Now the Sahara is not exactly a garden spot The number of people it can support is strictly limited. When villages and oases increase in population, the Sahara's productiy- ity is tested to the very limit. A brief run of bad luck can cause d1s- aster.
 The run of bad luck promptly came. A long dry spell set in. The Saharas power to produce was abrubtly reduced The Touaregs, centered in villages and around the waterholes, fell easy victims to fam inc.
 A correspondent recently finished a tour of the desert and reported that never in his life had he seen such frightful scenes of starvations and suffering as are on view among the Touaregs. Thousands upon thousands of the tribesmen have died. Other thousands are reduced to the most pitiful beggary in the towns. Altogether the Touaregs are suffering far more than they ever suffered from desert warfare.
 Now the point of this case is that the job of making the desert order- ly and peaceful was only half done. Peace was established - but noth- ing was done to make peace work able. The age-old forces that drove the desert men to unceasing war fare were left untouched. And so peace spelled disaster.
 You can carry out the analogy elsewhere. Peace came to Europe in 1918. But the job of making peace workable was left undone. The causes of war remained as they mad been; to grow stronger and sharp CT than ever. So Europe's peace in- deed, through human folly and neglect, they were permitted be- came a painful sham, an uneasy Hull between battles.
 Averting war is not enough. If the things that cause war are not attended to, our work for peace is a delusion.-Cordova Daily Times.
