test during the election. Took seventy-seven bulletins and all commercial work besides. I
will alwavs have a good word for the L. C. Smith hereafter. Very respectfully,
F. W. S.

Are You Successful?
If you are not successful—who is to blame? You
notice all around you successful men—-don’t
you ? Many of them have had no better oppor
tunities than you—some of them not as good.
The successful man avails himself of his oppor
tunities. The unsuccessful man does not. One
of the opportunities that make for success is a
Bank Account. Havfe you one at this Bank ? Try
it for a year. The note the progress you have
made.

WASHINGTON,D.C.—The legislat
ive ..committee of the Anti-Saloon
League of America concluded last
night a protracted session held at the
national headquarters in this city im
mediately following the national and
state elections Tuesday, at which it
received reports and considered the
course of action to be followed in the
immediate future.
The committee, consisting of Dr.
James Cannot Jr., of Virginia, chair
man; Dr. A. J. Carton, of Texas;
Wayne B. Wheeler, general counsel
of the league, and the Rev. E. C. Din
widdie, legislative superintendent,
gave out the following statement:
“The committee is highly gratified
at the reports received. Prohibition
has taken another great leap forward.
Michigan has voted for state-wide
prohibition by 75,000 majority, Ne
braska by 35,000, Montana by 20,000,
and Sputh Dakota by 25,000. Idaho
has adopted a prohibition constitu
tional amendment, strengthening the
present prohibition law in that state,
by a majority of 3 to 1. Utah has
probably elected a legislature pledged
to enact state-wide prohibition. Wash
ington, Iowa, Colorado, Arizona and
Arkansas have defeated attempts oi
the liquor people to secure the adop
tion of proposals which would nullify
their prohibition laws. Thus, 24
states out of 4'S one-half of the
states of the union, have now,declared
for state-wide prohibition, and over
60 pef cent of the population and 85
per cent of the area of the country
is now under prohibition laws.
“In view of these facts, congress,
at the approaching short session,
should pass promptly the resolution
now in the committee of both house.-;
giving the several states of the union
the right to vote upon a national eon
.itutional prohibition amendment.
“Furthermore, as a majority of the
people of the United Stef* are now
living in dry territory, congress
. S u'd pass the bill providing for pro
hibition in the capital of the rr- ;
as the law governing the capital city
the nati Id be in ac.< •<!
the sentiment of the majority of the
citizen: oi' the nation.
“I here two — -asur's should be pas
sed by congress without d. lay, and
o 1; r • ■ .. : ■ h as ' 'o-.Tn! 'on
• for Hawaii ami for preventing the use
of the "mails for liquor .advertising in
rrohibsUoft •rritory, should a'ro r •
reive prompt and favorable c. nsidera
k,n from the national law-making
body. ;
“We call upon the patriotic citini a
: ry of the tomitry to urge upon their
iV presc.ntatives in the senate and in
the house of representatives the
speedy passage of these measures.”

George Canfield, connected with
the geological branch of the govern
ment, but who for the past year has
been working in southeastern Alaska
n connection with the forestry serv
ice making a survey of the water pow
er in this section and measuring the
stream and water flow of the rivers
and creeks, will leave within the next
few days for Washington, D. C.,
where a book on the subject will be
issued by the government.
Mr. Canfield was first sent north
two years ago and established a num- I
ber of water flow guages on the j
streams in all parts of southeastern
Alaska and since that time he has
been securing accurate data as to the j
volume of water flow and has also
figures about the storage capacity and j
the distance of fall of the year. In
fact he has been investigating every
side of the water power question.
The book to be issued wdl be one
of the regular government pamphlets ;
covering the water power situation i
and will be written and edited by Mr. j
Canfield after his arrivel in Washing
ton.
C. O. Brown, of Tacoma, arrived
from the south on the Prince Rupert
last night and will relieve Mr. Can- 1
field while.the latter is away. He will
continue the work durin c ( airfield’'
absence and will take the readings of
fh" stream* guages. ’
