That suggestion of a straw hat
celebration appears to have rubbed
the weather man the wrong way.
Inasmuch as Secretary Fall has ex
pressed it as his determination t<>
come to Alaska give his personal
attention to the coi pletion of the
Government, thpre is a reasonable
assurance that he wall be on hand
to participate in the spike-driving
ceremony. It would not be amiss,:
however, to extend to him and also.
to President Harding, a fotmal in
vitation to be the gtiests of Alaska
on that auspicious occasion.
Have you noticed that dimes a-id

Cold weather is hard on the wood
pile, but beneficial to health and a

When Uncle Sam uridertocl. • e

COAST PIONEERS WORKING
TO REPEAL BONE DRY LAW
- !
The Pioneers of Ketchikan and]
Anchorage have given their indorse-1
ment to a movement to have the i
Alaska bone dry law submitted to [
a referendum of the voters of the
territory, by the adoption of the
following resolution:
“Whereas, the Alaska bone dry
law has never been submitted to the
people of the territory for referen

true sentiment of the people of
Alaska on prohibition;
“Whereas, the very stringency of
the bone dry law renders its en

on the part of honest officials and
law enforcement officials it is ad

be it
"Resolved, that w^e, the members
of the Pioneers of Alaska, believing
that we represent the opinion of
the majority of the citizens of Al

Eighteenth amendment to the Con
