Conservatves Expect New Elections
Will be Called as Present Ad- j
ministration is Near End.
X" ~ i . i i -
LONDON, March 5—Believing that i
the Asquith administration now in
power is near the end of its term,
because of the trouble with Ulster, the
friction regarding the reduction of
naval costs, the inability to provide
funds for the industrial and old age
pensions, the conservatives are pre
paring for the dissolution of parlia
ment and the call for an election.
The conservatives hope to be re
turned to power by reason of the
present dissatisfaction with the ad
ministration.

i
LOS ANGELES, March 5.— The wo
men of this city have organized to re
call Judge Willis, who yesterday sen
tenced a negro to serve thirty years

ing fine program will be shown:
The Woman Behind the Man, a fine j
and interesting drama. j
Gaumont Weekly of world events.

_ i
Big Brick* From Cliff.
A brick of gold worth $16,000 was j
brought up front the Cliff this morn
ing by Superintendent Millard.
Every member of the Valdez con
tingent which arrived on the Maripo
sa yesterday to attend the term of
court was decorated with a golden
spike, to which was attached a tag
bearing the words: '“Isch ka bibble,”
meaning, “We should worry,” literally
translated from the Titilik tongue,
‘‘There’ll be plenty of salmon for all.”
The "spikes” are an indication that
the people of Valdez expect their town
to be the terminal of the government
railroad and are the result of an in
spiration by Arthur Pinkus, who form
erly conducted the moving picture
show here.—Cordova Alaskan.
i .. ——————————
“Ish ka bibble” is the slogan adopt
ed by Valdez and the residents of that
town who are now in Cordova attend
ing court are tagged with badges con
taining the words, to which is at
tached a small bronzed spike. In
other words, “I should worry” about
the government railroad terminal, to
which a practical joker replied:
“What! Another railroad and still
sporting all that remains of the old
Reynolds’ memory—the gilded spike.”
