Europe and Free Trade. | 2 (Manchester Guardian.) | There is something at once comic and pathetic about the universal agreement that Free Trade is |sense and tariffs are nonsense. Statesmen of nll‘ | nations contemplate the tariff barriers of Europ and see their absurdity—in part. We had the whol thing over again at the Assembly of the League | Nations on Monday. Herr Stresemann seems have declared for universal Free Trade. There we believe, nothing in the Treaty of Versailles to; | prevent Herr Stresemann's country from going in for Free Trade tomorrow. But evidently Herr Strese- |mann did not mean that. If he did he would not |have wasted time talking to the League of Nations | about it. He would seem—one must be careful, for | the reports of the Assembly are short—to have sl\mvg “(-d the common error of most of the world that| |Free Trade is a virtue, and that it is all very wclll’ 'to be virtuous if everybody else consents to be| jvirtuous too.

The only thing he couldn’t do was keep the ordinary time, and who would want to keep the ordi- y time when he could do such rful things as the Little Black Clock? What a wonderful thing it was, y and John said, that the Lit- le Black Clock had let them into is secret and took them with him on his trips of adventure. So when the- Little Black Clock said that he had a treat for them the children knew that it would be great. You're going to meet the World Gypsy this evening,” the Little Black Clock said. “Who is he?” the children asked And then came forward a strange looking person wearing an odd costume that seemed to go in waves about him. “Good evening,” children. “My name,” he continued, after 00 | cept the need for still higher tariff walls around |the children and the Little Black Clock had said good evening, “is Ees v 5"1"11’“&”"?1 ":‘5‘_]“ forget the map and do a little quiet thinking—and |Gypsy.

WORLD'S BIGGEST JOKE. ibition has lowered the quality of liquor und rased the price; it has multiplied the work of the courts and raised taxes; it has increased dis- ¢ for law and raised hob with social practice, t has cutrailed the public revenue and raised and the volume of traffic on the air line between the Unicd States and Kingdom Come. It has made boot ing one of the country's largest industries. ddition it has made the United States the joke in the world, the sport of all who go about. Anyone with the price can get liquor in any City in the United States and all who travel know it. Most of them do it. It has made the United States not only the world's greatest joke, but the champoin hypocrite among nations. The only thing that saves the country in the eyes of the world is knowledge that Prohibition is not enforced and that most of the people who make the United States worth while are opposed to it and do their best to ignore it. One would think that the country would not RREEE that | great advantage as an exporting and competing |country, an advantage reduced certainly by the late Government, but not yet destroyed. | Sense, like charity, should begin at home.

(Seward Gateway.) | A sheep is no match for Kodiak k:ar and for | that reason is seems the latest venturc in livestock | raising in this vicinity is starting out under diffi- | culties. An employee of the San Juan Company put & small band of sheep on an island in Uganik Bay this summer, across Kodiak Island, and he has already lost 18 head, it is said. Its not to be wondered at because that is one section of the island where the big game hunters go. In des- peration, the would-be stockraiser is moving the remnants of his flock to another islard so far away from the mainland that the bear can't smell the mutton. This would-be rancher shakes his head sadly and says, “Yet, they say the bear is not a killer.” AR L Ll L i Topeka has been investigating the liquor-in-the- | home situation after a newspaper columnist wrote of having drinks in several houses.
