DEFEAT OF BEER BILL
1
Again the friends of moderation of the Volstead act
have sidestepped a political trap set by the supporters of
prohibition. This was when the House voted 228 to 169 )
against legalizing 2% per cent beer.
Every augury points to a complete new lineup in Con
gress following the fall elections. It is not likely that
those who are being looked to unscramble the tangle
past and present Congresses have gotten us into will per- ■
mit the present gang to steal one of the strongest weapons
in the forthcoming campaign—that of anti-prohibition.
Observers of events have noted the tendency of the
old gang to gravitate toward modification if not repeal.
This deceives no one but the dupes of prohibition. i
In the presidential race next November the lines will
be clearly and definitely drawn, and the friends of mod
ification are not going to allow those who refused to har
ken to the protest of the nation to enter in the race
claiming that they have been converted all the time, but
awaited a popular expression.
It is hardly to be expected that we will receive more
from the.present Congress than a balancing of the bud
get. Past events have warned us that any forward move
ment must come from a different angle. The hour for
house cleaning has arrived. On how well the voters ex
ercise judgement in naming the next administration will
depend the return of prosperity.
America has Weathered 19 Major Depressions.
She Will Beat This One.
When 169 railroads failed in 1893 John H. Patterson
said: “The year has been unparalleled in the history of the
United States. Great questions were to be solved, every
industry was stagnant. Some closed down, some lost
courage, while a few pushed ahead and worked harder
than ever with confidence in the future. We did not let
the hard times interfere with our work. When times
got duller, we advertised the more and worked harder.”
Everyone knows of ancient and imperial Rome on
the banks of the Tiber. Not so many have heard of
Rome in the state of New York, a little city that deserves
more notice than it has received. Its Chamber of Com
merce has asked Uncle Sam to put off the erection of a
new post office building, on the ground that the money can
be spent for a better purpose just now.

EXPERT IT WIRELESS
FORES IHIBIDE
j Sui'prising discovery of high
| mentality i n wireless operators
| was made by Phillip Sam “Little
Aspirin” Cohen when he examin
ed William “S O S” Moore, opera
tor on the U. S. S. Discoverer. ..
“Moore is one of the brightest
wireless operators I have known,”
said Cohen. “He plans to save his
money and leave his profession as
soon as possible, in order to escape
being sent to Morningside, Ore
gon, home for the feeble minded.”
I “Most gratifying, indeed,” said
I Moore at the conclusion of Cohen’s
j test. “I have observed the inevit
jable end of wireless operators, and
1 am determined not to step into
j this pitfall myself.”
Aside from his high intellect,
Moore is reported to have access to
the highest social circles wherever
he goes. In Kodiak he ranks with
the 400, and in Seward has made
contact with 800.
“I hardly have a minute to my
self any more,” he said. “I am con
sidering hiring a substitute for my
services while I am in port, in or
der that I may fulfill pressing so
cial engagements.”
MAY CAN BERRIES
What may develop into a new in
dustry for the lower Kenai Lake
country is seen in the present visit
to the Cooper Landing area by Mr.
Kanaak, berry expert from the
Matanuska Valley. Mr. Kanaak
was to meet Wm. Sherman, forest
warden, Wednesday at Lawing. The
Cooper Landing district is one of
the finest berry-growing areas ad
jacent to the Alaska Railroad, a
great abundance of wild berries
growing profusely throughout the j
season. Mr. Kanaak may take up |
a homestead and operate a small j
berry canning plant.
A manuscript (report on the
gold lode deposits of the Willow
Creek district, by James C. Ray,
Geological Survey, has been re
ceived by The Gateway from the
Department of the Interior.
WAKE UP YOUR
LIVER BILE—
WITHOUT CALOMEL
AnH You’D Jump Out of Bed in
the Morning Rami’ to Go
If you feel sour and sunk and the world
looks punk, don’t swallow a lot of salts,
mineral water, oil. Laxative randy or chewing
gum and expect them to make you suddenly
sweet and buoyant and full of sunshine.
For they can’t do it. They only move the
bowels and a mere movement doesn't get at
the cause. The reason for your down-and-out
feeling is your liver. It should pour out two
pounds of Liquid bile into your bowels daily.
If this bfle is not flowing freely, your food
doesn’t digest. It just decays in the bowels.
Gas bloats up your stomach. Yea have a
thick, bad taste and your breath is foul,
skin often breaks out in blemishes. Y our head
aches'and you feel down and out. Your whole
system is poisoned.
It takes those good, old CARTER’S
LITTLE LIVER PILLS to get these two
pounds of bile flowing freely and make you
feel “up and up.” They contain wonderful,
harmless, gentle vegetable extracts, amazing
when it <*nnw to making the bile flow freely.
Bat don’t ask for liver pills. Ask for Carter’s
Little IiYer Pills. Look for the name Carter’s
Little Liver Pills on the red label. Resent a
