Ain’t it a dog-gone shame that
with prohibition such a rank fail
ure in Kansas that even the liquor
interests are disgusted, and with
Kansas finances and health in such
a deplorable conditoin that the fleas
are leaving the state, and her pro
spects so gloomy that from the Vale
of the Yukon to Imnachuck’s
Waters there is lively conecrn, a
bunch of bull-headed farmers who
have lived right alongside Kansas
since Heck was a pup, and have got
most of their own state under the
“blight of prohibition” right now by
local option, should go to work and
adopt resolutions like the following,
just as though they had never read
the Fairbanks News-Miner:
“Whereas, the National Farmers’
Congress recently held in this city,
by a practically unanimous vote, de
clared its fixed policy for state-wide
and national Prohibition of the li
quor traffic for beverage purposes;
and,
“Whereas, There is- now In circu
lation an initiative petition provid
ing for the submission to the
voters of Nebraska at the November
election in 191-6 an amendment to
Hie constitution of this state forever
prohibiting the manufacture and
sale of intoxicating liquors, except
for medicinal, scientific, mechanical
or sacramental purposes; therefore
be it
“Resolved, That we, the Nebraska
Farmers’ Congress, annually con
vened, hereby declare our indorse
ment of state-wide and national Pro
hibition and favor the adoption or
the proposed amendment by the
voters of this state.”
And the vote on the resolutions
was 52 to 7, and Nebraska votes dry
with Alaska on Tuesday next.—Adv.
A SEATTLE EXAMPLE.
Nearly twenty-five years ago the
Washington state legislature passed
a law creating a dry area with a
radius of two miles from the State
University. The law was passed
upon petitions of residents of the
district, of the student body, and of
the faculty. If you happen to be
familiar with Seattle and its de
velopment since that time compare
the dry “North End” that is the
University and North Broadway sec
tion with say Georgetown and
South Seattle, whose denizens dwell
under the immediate influence of
those cultural centers of charming
conviviality, the breweries, .and
breathe daily the stimulating air of
personal liberty exhaled by the
corner booze joint.—Adv.
Old man Booze has got a glad
right hand, but he'l get you with
that wicked left hook when you’re
r.ot looking.—Adv.
The fellow that takes a bottle of
booze for a mushing companion on
the winter trail would pick a rattle
snake for a bed-fellow in the desert.

with the graves in the old grave
yard, and where there seemed any
danger of doing so steps were taken
to reinter all those.

Billy Mullen who installed a

that section, returned to Nome after
a fine trip. Four days from Candle
to Lane’s Landing is his record, and
from there they came down on dog
express on the Seward Peninsula
railway with engineer Larson in
charge of the dog power. He tells
a most inter -ting story of hir. expe
riences in Candle and says that it
was very musing to watch the
eskimos wl. had never before seen i
a moving pi ure show, and took all
the pietu: s for the real thing so

There is quite an exciting race on
between the Victoria and the Uma
tilla from Seattle to Nome, and
neither exceeding the speed limit
owing to the exceedingly bad
weather which they have to face,
generally from the northwest, rignt
in the teeth of the incoming steam
ers. Thus the Victoria at noon
on November 30 was one thousand
miles west of Flattery and the
Umatilla was about 950 miles west
of the same point. According to this
reading the Umatilla has, been gain
ing quite a bit in the rush north,
havii^ left well nigh fourteen
hours behind the Vic. As the Vic
toria will he the first into the Ber
ing Sea, the Alaska Steamship Co’s
boat if it gets fine weather, will
probably gain what has been lost in
the rougher Gulf. Not that the
Bering has been all the same mill
pond for the past week or so. The
Juneau which left Nome in quite a
blow, was unable to make Unimak
Pass and had to get into shelter at
Port M’oller.
