^EACH COMBINGS
BY “AHN-KUTTY
The national wages bill in Great
Britian, at present, is 1,500,000,000
pounds. Some 2,300,000 workers
draw down 200 pounds—less than
$1 000-annually. 10,000,000 work
ers are in receipt of 100 pounds-less
than $500.- a year. If this isn’t fat
pickings, we don’t know what fat
pickings are. And then we wonder
why the communist.
’Tisn’t a horseless world yet, by
any means. We’ve been harboring
the idea that mechanical devises
have just about run old Darby into
the boneyard of useless things.
Not so! For now come demands
on horse breeders that production of
good horses and mules must be
doubled to take care of growing
needs.
We don’t dabble much in the li
uuor question, but odd news comes
out of Oklahoma. That State never
was legally wet. As Indian Terri
tory, liquor was prohibited within
its borders by Federal Law. As a
State, it was dry before the dry law
became' effective. Still the State
claims the largest percentage of ci
tzens regularly engaged in the man
ufacture and distribution of intoxi
cants. The oddity comes in the fact
that the business is carried openly
aud with no apparent fear of legal
mix-up. The news report goes on
to say that 4,000 heads of families
out of 8,000 in Muskogee, Okla
homa, manufacture stuff with a jolt
in it. Oklahoma beer is claimed
10 percent wallop. Somebody page
Andrews.
President Coolidge indicated in a
recent address that primaries will
route the system of bossism,, when
he declared: “Direct primaries and
d rect elections bring to bear upon
political fortunes of public officials,
and greatly disproportionate the in
fluence of organized minorities, art-i
ricial propoganda, paid agitators and
selfish interests imposing upon
1 members of Legislative bodies and
forcing them to represent special
elements rather than the great body
of their constituency, when they are
successful.” Reads just as tho the
President mad the Alaska situation
in mind. ,
Representative Nelson of Missouri
has declared: “There is nothing
wrong with the primary. If there
is any trouble it is with hte people.
Voters seeking to be debauched un
der any system. But once aroused,
once given the facts, the American
voter will no more allow the dollar
„o be put above man than would he
permit a foreign flag to float above
Old Glory.” Mr. Nelson is right.
Ti e people of Alaska refuse to be
debauched under any hystem. And
it certainly won’t succeed in the pre
sent ampaign. The “Independent”
money won’t change votes.
Are -there any skunks in Alas
ka?” Answer: This is not their na
tive habitat, but one or more have
(been imported and located at a con
siderable distance from Seward.
rihey are of the biped variety and
have a little intelligence; they use
their wits in knocking the Alaska
Bailroad and other legitimatt en
terprises.-Gateway. We might add
that said knocking was “free” as
was the trip on certain fine cannery
vessels.
