All Tailways, rivers, canals and highways leading from the city are closely . guarded, and even the smallest junks and people on bicycles are searched for contra- band goods. But in Tientsin itself the stores and warehouses, particularly in the Japanese Concession, are crammed with Japanese-made commodities which the smugglers have landed at some of Yin Ku-keng's ports and on which they have paid to his Japanese-protected re- gime only one-fifth the duties collected at ports under Nanking’s control. If the Japanese authorities gave the order this smuggling would end immediately. If the Chinese permitted the Chinese customs vessels along this coast to be armed, as once they were, the smugglers could be apprehended on their way from Dairen to the North China coast. If the Japanese permitted the réarming of the customs inspectors the violence 6f the smugglers, all of whom are Japanese and Kdteans, would be quickly checked. If the Jdpane: permitted the railway to observe Nanking’s orders and refuse . to transport smuggled goods the traffic would end at once.

This money was to be returned to the original subscribers and was about one-third of the amount of the total subscriptions, Juneauites having subscribed about $60,000. Ju- |neau’s oversubscription was about | the same as that througout the |United States. | —— * JULY 19 Albert Wile Joanne Jorgensen Lare Haugee Howard Thompson Lloyd Jarman —_— 4 DAILY LESSONS IN ENGLISH By W.

Almost daily from two to ten freight cars packed with smuggled goods arrive at the Tientsin station from points to the north— ports controlled by Yin Ju-keng's East Topet Government.

Following the washout of three games slated last week, the Gas- tineau Channel Ball Loop is now six full games behind its schedule. The Moose are looking forward to tonight's game as a chance to once more gain a clear edge on the field in the second half race.
