If Mr. .McAllister will come to
Petersburg next July, we can
easily show him a few things
tl at will surely turn his indig
nation in the opposite direction.
One thing more: The eagle, not
ceing a migratory bird, is not
a subject for national legisla

, Hi LETTER ‘i '
Some uxt has decioed that the
letter ‘ e” is the most unfor-tun
ate letter in the alphabet because
it is always out of cash, forever
in debt, never out of danger, and
in hell all the time. No little
credit k: due, however in that it
is never in war, and always in
peace. /*nd we are deeply in
debted to this little letter, since
it is the beginning of existence,
ihe commencement of ease, and
the end cf trouble. Without it
there would be no meat, no life,
and no heaven. It is the center
of ho i:ty, and, although it
starts off in error, it ends in
making iove perfect.—Bulletin,
Tacoma.
Divisional Notes
KLAWOCK
The surveying party under the
direction of Mr. Floyd Betts of
iyhe general land office, has been
for the past three months en
gaged in surveying the Klawock
Town site. Having completed
their work here, left for Hyda
jburg. During their stay here
j tiiey made many friends among
'the native people and everyone
is sorry to see them leave.

iJustina Demmert, Mr. and Mrs
| John Peratrovitch.
The surveying party, will be in
| Hydaburg for about a month;
icuring which time that town'
! will be surveyed.
An election will be held in the
rear future to determine if a
j franchise will be granted a new
; ly formed telephone company at
! C :aig to extend its lines to Kla
v/oek. There is no doubt that I
this measure will pass by an ov
erwhelming majority as much
i enelit will accrue to the entire
community bringing it in direct
touch with the federal wireless
station at Craig.
WRANGELL
Judge Billy Thomas left for
the States on a short vacation.
Returning in about a month, he
v. ill be accompanied by Mrs.

by local citizens and financed by
themselves.
HAINES

rough spots, as he lost all of his

JUNEAU

additional $20,000 for the capital

Plenty of tar paper and trim
mings from buildings decorate;

none too gently making uncom
fortable trafelling for pedestri
ans.
Presildent Hoover , named
Karl Thiele as secretary of Alas
ka.

OUTWITTED
-x
The policeman was walking
down the street with a batch of
summonses for nonpayment of
rent. One victim saw him com
ing, locked himself in the house,
and snatched up a pair of bel
lows. The officer knocked sev
eral times without response and
then proceeded to put the sum
mons under the door, but it
promptly blew out again.
This was repeated many times
and finally the officer, getting
tired, picked up the summons
with the remark: “Well, I don’t
blame that guy for not paying
rent in a draughty hole like
that!”
AUTO DIESELS
-o
C. L. Cummins of Columbus
Iiid., has perfected a Diesel-:
powered car which following a
792-mile trip cost only $1.38 in
fuel.
The engine is a standard ma
rine type Diesel, four cylinder
model with no refinements for
passenger car uses except in the
throttling devices which allows
the driver to control the engine
lixe any ordinary gas engine.
Cummins has been working on
tins engine for twelve years. His
machine differs from ordinary
Diesels in that the fuel is gasi
fied before being injected into
the cylinders.
BE HONEST WITH
PROHIBITION
Be Honest in Logic: Prohibi
tion is no more the cause of
bootlegging than the seal on a
banknote is the cause of coun
terfeiting.
Be Honest in Theory: Light
wines and beer will no more
cause observance of law than
permission to sell all liquors
caused obedience to former laws.
Be Honest in Facts: You have
seen less drunkenness in public
life during the past five years
than you saw during any equal
previous period.
Be Honest in Judgment: Pro
hibition no more interferes with
proper medicinal use of alcohol
than the prohibition of narcot
| ics interferes with their medi
cinal use.
i
Be Honest in Observation: For
each adverse effect of prohibi
tion you see, you can find mani
feld benefits if you will look for
them.
Be Honest in Opinion: Person
[ al expressions against the law
does as much to erfcourage law
lessness as personal approval of
Germany encouraged disloyalty.
Be Honest in Humor: Jokes
that hold prohibition up for ri
dicule do more to breed con
tempt than the wild arguments
of the wets.
Be Honest in Mind: To believe
only reports against Prohibition
and to reject all reports which
are favorable manifests a bias
of mind incapable of seeing
facts.—National Enquirer, Aug
ust 18, 1927.
“Next*”—Who, me?” “Born”9
—“Yes, sir.” “Where”?—“Rus
siia.” “What part”? “All om me.”
“Why did you leave Russia”?—
M couldn’t bring it with me.”—
“Where were your forefathers
born”?—“I only got one father.”
“Your business”?— “Rotten!”
“Where is Washington”?—“He’s
dead.” “I mean the capital of the
United States”?—They loaned it
all to Europe.” “Now, do you
promise to support the Consti
tution”?—“Me? How can I?
I’ve got a wife and six children
to support.”
