ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION NORTHWEST BUSINE PROSPEROL The bank clearings in Seattle for 1929 amounted to § 3,702,190, the largest in the history of the City. They exceeded those for 1928 by more than $110,000,000. There has been a consistent gain in the bank clearings of the Puget Sound metropolis since 1921, That year showed a marked decline from the record of 1920, the drop being from $2,072,- 639,436 to $1,511,604,148. It was not until 1925 that the clearings equalled the 1920 record, but they have exceeded it e year ce then The bank deposi the end of the year in Seattle amounted to $236,762,836—a gain since Octo- ber of more than $5,000,000. The showing is one that indicates growing pros- perity in the Northwest. The Alaska business con- tributes a lot to the bank clearings of Seattle. Most Alaska business men pay their accounts with Alaska checks, and they are put through the clear- ing house JOHN MARSHALL NOT FIRST JUSTICE. CHIEF A New York Times picture of the unveiling of a statue of John Marshall at Philadelphia calls him the “first Chief Justice of the United States.” The Times ought to buy a World Almanac for its rotograveur editor. John Marshall was not the first Chief Justice. He was not the second, nor even the third. John Jay of New York was the first Chief Justice. John Rutledge of South Carolina was second and Oliver Ellsworth of Connecticut was third. John Marshall of Virginia was the fourth Chief Justice, and served from 1801 until his death in 1835—thirty-four years He is probably the most famous of all the Chief Justices, although Roger B. Taney of Maryland, who succeeded him and occupied the position for twenty-eight years, also is ranked high as a jurist. DIFFERENCE IN CRIMES. P. H. Callahan, Louisville varnish manufacturer and more or less notorious Prohibitionist, complains that those who are condemning the Prohibition en- forcers for shooting men accused of violating the dry laws have had nothing to say regarding the circumstance that in Indiana the police shot at a bandit who had held up a bank. If bandits may be shot at, he asks, why should other criminals have special privileges? And this is printed in the “Clipsheet” of Dr. Clarence True Wilson and Deets Pickett as reasonable argument. Mr. Callahan to the contrary notwithstanding, the American people do not place violators of the dry laws and bank bandits in the same class. In fact, dry advocate recently said, Prohibition is not receiving the aid of the mass of the people, while those who would capture murderers, bandits and other kind of robbers, burglars, rapists, fire- bugs, etc, do not even have to ask the aid of the populace. They have it from the minute of the commission of the crime until the guilty are in the penitentiary on the scaffold. Until the people get behind Prohibition as they are behind the en- forcers of laws against real criminals, Prohibition will not be enforced. The people are not and there is no indication that they will get behind Pro- as a or hibition in that way at all.
