ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION. CITY COUNCIL AND LIQUOR. On two counts the City Council last week ex= hibited sound common sense with respect to liquor control Virtually every member of the Council openly declared against any ordinance which would force the retail liquor stores to close between 1 a.m. and 8 am. daily. Experience of law enforcement officers has shown that the heaviest liquor sales are between 11 p.m. and the early morning hours. If .egitimate business firms, who pay taxes and conduct their trade strictly in compliance with the regula- tions of the Board of Liquor Control are forced to shut their doors during that period, the sales will undoubtedly be made by the bootlegging fraternity. Cempulsory early closing would not only penalize legitimate business, it would put a premium on those who violate the law. Members of the Council said they had been advised by at least one member of the Board of Liquor Control that restaurants could serve beer out of bottles between 1 am. and 8 am. as long as it was with meals, but that they cannot serve draught beer during that period of the day even with food. The Council by a unanimous adopted a motion asking the Board to change that particular regulation. It declared it by the restdurants at any hour of the day was from bottles or draught. That is good reasoning. Under the regulations of the Board restaurants li- censed to serve beer and wine with meals can render that service at any hour of the day and night. It ought not to make any difference whether the beer, or wine for that matter, is drawn from bottles or from kegs or barrels. CALIFORNIA DEMOCRATS CONFIDENT. For the first time in 44 years, California Demo- crats are approaching an election when they can reasonably claim to be the majority party. It is true that California went Democratic two years ago in the national landslide, but pre-election registra- tion figures gave the Republican party a majority of the voters in the State. Current registration figures show this reversed, and the Democratic leaders are confident they have consolidated the gains shown for their party in November, 1932. They are now laying plans to capture the Governor- ship and a majority of the Legislature. Latest registration figures, quoted in editorial correspondence to the New York Times, show the vote | | Democrats had a majority of 1955 in a total of 264,113 registered voters in San Francisco. In Los Angeles, traditionally Republican, the Democratic registrations numbered 317,917, and the Republican, 303,173. In San Francisco heretofore the Republi- cans have outnumbered the Democrats from two to one to five to one, and in Los Angeles the preponder- ance of Republican voters has been even greater. | In the recent announcement of George Creel, director of all NRA activities in Central and Northern California, of his candidacy for the Guber- natorial nomination, is seen a solution of one of the problems that had vexed the State leaders. y were looking for a strong candidate to head tate ticket and had some weeks ago approached Creel. It seemed to be a question of him or John B. Elliott, Los Angeles lawyer, who was not| acceptable to certain party leaders in poth San Francisco and Los Angeles. Creel is certain to make a dramatic and telling campaign. WE ARE HERE NOW. The dominant white race came from Asia to |Europe, and from Europe it crossed to America Its progress has been with the sun, following 1t | from the east to the west. The Smithsonian Insti- ‘tution says that the Indians reversed this—they |came from the west to the east. From Asia they traveled by way of Bering Strait, and slowly, wave after wave, occupied the continent. Probably they were in Alaska and on the Pacific for many cen- turies before they found their way to the interior Jof America and reached the Atlantic coast. Columbus made his first voyage in 1492, and in the intervening time Europeans have settled all of North America. The Smithsonian experts think it took the Indians thousands of years to accomplish what we have done in a few hundred years. These experts are making a map sHowing the migrations of Indians from the southwest and then northward until they met in Tennessee or Kentucky. Naturally much of all this must be speculation. In Ohio there are remains of the Mound Builders, apparently evi- dences of a people who had been there a very long time. Then they vanished, perhaps swept away by a stronger and more warlike race of people descending upon them from the north or south | There can be no more than theories about it. What ;we do know s that we are here and are making more use of North America than did our savage . predecessors. One of the latest indications of prosperity to be reported is that the Reno divorce mills are again doing a landoffice business. | We are reversing the old order. What we need now is devices to create labor instead of labor saving devices. . should not | make any difference whether beer served with food Gentler Pipe Smokers. (New York World-Telegram.) | Since the days when Queen Elizabeth used to enjoy her pipe of tobacco with Sir Walter Raleigh the custom of pipe smoking by women has had its ‘ups and downs, until now it's at almost an all time low. The cigarette is pre-eminent. | When Mrs. Belle Rhynes, of Savannah, Ga., died the other day, the fact that she smoked a pipe Ireceived almost equal attention in her obituaries |with her remarkable age. She was 123. She at- itributed her longevity, indeed, to her pipe smoking |as well as to her placid disposition. | But customs change about. During her lifetime ‘Mrs. Rhynes might have pointed to two wives of Presidents who smoked their pipes—Mrs. Andrew Jackson and Mrs. Zachary Taylor. Mme. Vigee Le !Brun, the French portraitist, smoked and painted her own picture, pipe in hand. Even the strait- {laced Quakeresses of Pennsylvania two centuries ago smoked pipes and were not criticised. And the |world is not likely to forget soon those energetic | cigar smokers George Sand and Amy Lowell. The ideal citizen would seem to be a cross be- jtween Gandhi, who insists on breaking into jail, and Dillinger, who insists on breaking out.—(Rochest- ;er Democrat and Chronicle.)
