WOMEN OF ALASKA AROUSED
OX TEMPERA VCR QUESTION
A letter recieved in Seattle to
Ja/ tells of W. C. T. U..work in
Alaska. The letter says:
On May 13, 14 and 15 the W.
C. T. U of Skagway, Alaska, held
the first convention of the organ
ization eveT convened in Alaska. A
program of .exceptional Interest was
orerared, embracing papers from
many of the foremost exponents of
temperance in the territory.
Aside from the distinction de
rived from the fact that this is
che pioneer gathering of , its kind,
there is another significance in
fhe. fact that it is the opening gun
ol the territorial-wide campaign
that will be waged next year againsi
John Barleycorn, and those who
are in position to phrophesy boldly
assert that this great empire will
join the ranks of prohibition.
The recent rulmts of Federal
Judge Jtnnings at Juneau have beer
j uniformly favorable to temperance,
| he cutting on tha vend ore of in
I toxicants the burden of proof w'th
'reference to the qualification 'of
| voters, and counting as "dry" all
those voters who were either not
seen by the census enumerators or
having been seen, were noncommit
tal, in event such voters did not
exerc ise their right of suffrage.
The women of Alaska are aroused
on the question of temperance and
will not lag behind the procession
of prohibition states that makes
such an inspiring spectacle to everv
well-wisher.of the great republic.

WOMANLY HELP
There is a oitiable case in Skag
way—an aged woman stricken with
an insidious disease that will prob
ably end in death, and whc is lying
•■elyless, with no one to minister
to l:er wants except her husband,
who is well past four score years,
and who, however willing, will not
bg able to withstand the constant
strain of such a task We do not
know that these people arc in need
o* financial aid, although even this
may be possible, and is very prob
able. We do know, however, that
they are in desperate need of wo
manly sympathy.and help, which is
far beyond the giving of alms, even
though.that is supposed to cover a
multitude of sins—in desperate need
of that divine charity that is not
gauged b.y the purchasing power
of dollars and cents, but wells up
from the heart like a spring from
the mountainside—sparkling, pure
and undefileed.

There is now a round-trip rate
o" ?27.50 between .Seattle and

On tho three larger steamers
the rcvud trip rate is $32.50, good

Tha* the life of the street corner
gangoiers of our big cities, especial
ly New York, as a great social and
econoaiii problem has long been ap
preciated. And the means to con
trol J.-ito proper channels .this vast
waste of human energ, misdirected
uas beta the ideal of civic reform
ers for years.
It \v>'8 just trior to the admlnis
traH.cn of fornifi Mayor William J.
Gayjjoi of New Vprk, who was af
terward a victim of assassins, that |
the city gang and crime wave prob
lem was at its height. It was dur-I
in»- this administration with his ]
greyest efforts, assisted by .Chas.
3. Whitman, the fearless district at- |
torii-v, tuat the gang rule .of this
great city was successfully broken
up. I
A study of the evils, conditions
and causes of this civic problem j
presents many interesting human
angles to tho uninitiated. .The
trutv» cf the gun men has perhaps
never been written. Nor the rea- j
sons why thei- kind become out
law?, er tho conditions surrounding I
them iii .their youth. Boys living |
in tbe crowded streets of New
York are daily fighting the battle |
of environment. Some are able to
coiiquer the,force of this evil, oth
ers succumb to tho street corner
gangs and the pool rooms. This Is
all shown step by stop in.one of the
greatest educational features ever
presented in motion picture .plays,
nnder the caption, "The Doom of th0
Oun Men of New Ycrk," in four J
parts, to bo shown tonight only at
♦he Popular Picture Palace. [
A picture of this character has
c;reat power for good, and.is very
far reaching in its forcible presen
tation of tho city problem, so little I
understood and appreciated. Every
mother and father, and every.moth
ei's son and daughter should see [
tills feature, to see the .great rea
sons behind the daily, newspaper [
stories, accurately photographed.
In conjunction with this picture, I
'he management offers .a one reel
Iiu:j comedy, entitled "BThis Price
less Treasuro" that is .a scream,
and one that will send you home
laughing. |
