MACHINE GUN
FOR DEFENSE
CAN BE OPERATED BY HANE
OB ELECTRICITY UNDER
ONE-MAN CONTROL
DUBUQUE, Iowa. April T. — A
local inventor has received a paten!
on .1 new machine gun, especially
designed for purpose of defense
According to the description of this
new »ar implement it is somethin*
antireiy new- in the Sine of guns
as well as new in the matter of be
icg a machine gun, 'the inventor's
idea being novel, entirely different
front anything ever patented 01
used for a gun or for a machine
gum
The investor savs th s gun may
be manufactured for less than $10©
that there is scarcely any limit t«
the rapidity of its f re. Another fea
ture of the gui is that it is au
tomatic
The cartridges. 1.000 or 10.000 oi
them., may be thrown into a hop
per. As tie machine is operated
'the cartridges assemble, are forced
into the breech of the gun and
discharged automatically at anv
speed desired.
The gun may be operated by
hand or electricity. If operated by
electricity one operator might op
erate one. ten. a hundred or a
thousand at a time, and might be
at any distance fre m the mm if it
is electrically connected.
DEMOCRATS SHOULD
BE RECOGNIZED
'Weekly Alaskan-)
I* :s rumored -hat Deputy Mar
sha. Wa.rte-0 itas resigned his of
fice. It may hare beer, he resign
ec. but :t looks strange on the sur
:uce. -ut i» must be remembered
-tat ^arue.l ;s a Republican,
an-d that nearly the full term of the
Democrats has gone through with
Mr. *'» ardel! ricmg in their soup
wagtm u-ncticec. and it is possible
someone has yelled to the good
old Democratic teamster, “there's a
tanger-oa behind, mister ’" I: would
never be Marshal Bren reman to
hint such a course. for they are
■: Id-time friends. And besides. Mr.
Warned was one of Bretmeman’s
first appointments- It's about time
a few Democrats were being recog
nised anyhow in Alaska.
A. W AIT, EXPERT ACCOUNTANT
< Weekly Alaskan.)
Some men having contracts with
the government railroad builders,
and employing men to aid them m
their work, are being badly em
barrassed by lack of funds with
which to pay their help or settle
other financial obligations, and aU
through the stupidity of that com
miss-on’s grand “system’’ of set
ting accounts. It's just the same
trouble over and over, whether tie
cutters, hay cutters, wood cutters
jT anytue that has performed work
for them. Mr. Wait is the man in
charge of the account department,
evidently, and he does not like to
make tut checks or pass out eagles
for fear of ruffling the featkers.
Why. the contractor stands the man
off wh. works for him, who _n turn
has to run an account with the res
taurant keepers, who can't pay the
butcher for his meats, and the but
cher refuses further credit and the
whole line of business confidence
Is shattered beyond redemption, and
eli from a source that is always
termed “better than gold itself—
the government- Wonder if they
know in Washington that there is
a railroad commission up here? You
tell ’em, Wick.
A BAD FIRE.
/ Los Angeles Times.)
In a fire at Seattle 12,000 worth
of pie was destroyed. This brings
us face to face with the subject of
pie which ranks with the Fourth
of July, the peace propaganda of
Henry Ford, the diasnauqna lecture
of W. J. Bryan, the presidential as
pirations of Hiram Johnson and th*
price of gasoline as a great Ameri
can institution- Sometimes we think
that one good pie would be worth
more than all of these with the
possible exception of the glorious
fourth. You take for I .stance, a
pie made out of the little Eastern
cherries that are very sour and
very red, or a p.e made out of
huckleberries fresh from the patch
which is close to the blue springs
end filled with unfriendly adders
and maybe a black rattlesnake or
two and we doubt if anything could
beat such pies for quality. Yes.
that was a bad fire in Seattle.

NEW ONES COMING.
J. R. Heckman & Co. announce
that they will have a shipment oi
brand new suits and coats on oi
about April 8th, for Raster want;
that promise to be along the line)
of the same modern prices as tJw
shipment oi two weeks ago, an’
the latest word in this kind u\
merchandise on the Coast.
Evidently It win pay to keei
an eye on th;* store for up-to-dab
merchandise. St
CHASING VILLA
WAS TOO SLOW
LIFE IN EL PASO MORE EXCIT
ING THAN CARRYING V
GUN IN MEXICO.
EL PASO. April Will Crosby,
the millionaire scout is back from
the front- He went into Mexico
’ with the troops front sheer loro
of excitement.
“There was no excitement," ho
said on his return, "so I canto
back."
“There hadn’t been a shot fired
in the campaign by the American
troops when I left the Colonia Dub
!an last Friday,” said the scout.
"I like rough times when I go out
looking for them. But I can find
more excitement here in Ej Paso
than in scouting for the American
punitive expedition.”
Mr. Crosby is president of a
brokerage firm here
Forty young lieutenants fresh
from West Port, in the glory of
their first epaulettes, reached El
Paso in time to attend the Country
Club bail igven just before the
troops left E! Paso.
“Those West Pointers didn’t look
as if they would stand up under »
hard hike.” said Crosby, “"but I
saw them on the march to Casas
; Grandes. Many a time they help
ed to his fee: some soldier who
had falle nfrorr. heat and exhaust
ion. carried his ride and equipment
and tended the poor devil like a
mother as he staggered blindly on.
It warned the hearts of the old
campaigners to watch these kids
front West Point stand the acid
test of manhood and soldiership.
El Paso thought them dandies. Mex
ico found they were soldiers.”
