LAUOU is entitled to just and equitable en
actments in order that it may share in
the profits it creates.
WOMEN must be considered in the making of
new laws for the Territory in order that
their interests may be guarded in a fair
and equal manner.
HAVING resided in the Territory for the
greater part of my life I feel competent
to legislate for the development of our
vast northern country.
1AM confident the people of the Third Di

casting their ballot for me at the polls
next November.
THE many changes that will require the
attention of lawmakers under the fast
growing resources of our vast Territory
must be met with good judgment and
precision.
EVERY voter is most respectfully solicited
to give the questions of this campaign
his undivided attention before casting his
ballot on Tuesday, November 3, 1914, and

R. R. MAGNATE FOR
GOVT. OWNERSHIP
WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.—Former
President Yoakum, of the Rock Is

was in favor of the government own
ership of railroads. He admitted that
while president of the St. Louis and

the line to the Rock Island road for
$17,500,000, and then had re-built it
for the company for $10,000,000, the
loss being charged to the stockhold
ers while the Insiders pocketed the
profits.
JURY DRAWING
ISJOSTPONED
Judge F. M. Brown postponed the
drawing of the federal grand Jury
until a later date. It was at first
thought best to have the Cordova
shooting investigated at this time, but
as the injured man is still in a con
dition which may result in his death
at any moment the prosecuting of
ficials preferred to await the result
of the Injuries.

Playing Safe Polities.
Many years ago in Washington a
solemn-faced mbn halted James Proc
tor Knott on his way to the House
of Representatives and asked him
which, in his Judgment, was the su
perior work of Shakespeare—Hamlet
or Macbeth. The congressman gated
earnestly at his Inquisitor and said
In a deprecatory tone, "My friend,
don’t ask me that question. I am a
politician and a candidate for re
election to congress. My district Is
about equally divided. Hamlet has
hiB friends down there and Macbeth
his, and I am unwilling to take any
part between them.”

~ THE PERFECT SPELLER. “
Test Him by Having Him Writs This
Jumble From Dictation.
One occasionally comes across a supe
rior person wbo tells you he can easily
■pell any word every printed In a dic
tionary. If ever you meet this type of
man JuBt ask somebody to dictate the
following Jumble to him and see bow
many mistakes be will make:
“Antlnous, a disappointed, desiccated
physicist, was peeling potatoes In an
embarrassing and harassing way. His
Idiosyncrasy and privilege was to eat
mayonnaise and mussels while staring
at the Pleiades and seizing people’s tri
cycles' and velocipedes. He was an
erring teetotaler and bad been on i I
picayune Jamboree. He rode a palfrey -
stallion and carried a salable papier
mache bouquet of asters, phlox, mul
lein, chrysanthemums, rhododendrons,
fuchsias and nasturtiums.
“He wore a sibyl’s resplendent tur
quoise paraphernalia, an ormolu yash
mak and astrakhan chaparejos. He
drank crystalUzable and disagreeable
curacao Juleps through a sieve. He
stole some moneys and hid them under
a peddler’s mahogany bedstead and
mattress.
“Like a fiend In an ecstasy of gayety
I rushed after him Into the maelstrom,
or melee, and held him as In a vise. I
could not feaze him, however, and he
addressed me, with autocracy. In the
following Imbecile words, which sound
ed like a soliloquy or a superseding
paean on an oboe: 'You are a ratable
lunamoth, a salaaming vizier, an equi
noctial coryphee and an Isosceles da
guerreotype.”—New York MalL
Breaking Out the Colors. j
A pretty sight aboard ship Is the I

mast and another at the rear mast
In his band Is a small silken bundle,
tightly rolled. This is sent aloft

die unrolls, and a splendid silk flag
flutters out Into the breeze. At the
foremast Is that of the nntlon whose
port the ship Is entering, while that on
the rear mast Is the flag of the steam
ship company, the ship’s nationality
being advertised by a large flag at the
stern. The latter Is lowered or dipped
by wny of salute when another steam
er Is passed out In the ocean.—St Louis
Globe-Democrat
Unbearable Perfumee.
The perfume of flowers can make
some people shiver. A member of the
London Spiritualist Alliance tells of a
woman who dreads the smell of hya
cinths. Once at a party the hostess,
knowing her visitor’s horror of the
flowers, hid them behind a screen, yet
although they were concealed from
view the woman detected them and
fainted shortly after entering the
room. The Princess of Lamballe, a
friend of Marie Antoinette and a vic
tim of the French revolution, would al
ways turn pale at the sight of a violet,
and Vincent, the painter, swooned at
the smell of roses.
Insanity.
There has never been a satisfactory
definition of Insanity, the best, that of
Sir William Hamilton, thnt It Is “the
paralysis of the regulating or legis
lative faculties of the mind,” leaving
us far from being sntlsfled. Like sleep,
like dreams, like life Itself, Insanity Is
a mystery that no man understands
Its causes lie In the “De profundls"
that ho science hns as yet explored.—
New York American.
The Candid Friend.
Alleged Composer (at piano)—Listen
to this. He does brutal things to the
Instrument How do you like It? Too
Uttle air and too many variations per
haps? The Helpless Friend—Yes; give
me more air. (He opens the window.)—
Cleveland Plaiu Dealer.
Not Very Likely.
"Did you ever notice one thing abont
a ship?”
“What’s that?”
“She can’t make knots when she’s
tied up.“—Baltimore American.

signment of manufacturers samples of
children’s wool sweaters and hoods,

ATTENTION!
Alaskan Workingmen.
Delegate Wlekersham claims chief credit for the passage of the pres
ent railroad bill and aske for your votes In return. But what does he
propose to do for you when, from all over the states, a vast army of
workers, lured by the hope of obtaining employment on the railroad, In
vadee this country by the thousands? They will surely come, and the
competitive struggle for existence that mutt necessarily follow will cre
ate conditions never before realized In this territory. The business men
and steamship companies will reap a big harvest, but the laborers*will
fight for Jobe.
The Boolallat candidates are nominated and controlled by working
men, and must help you when that time comes. Can any of the other
candidates say ae much?
To vote for the Socialist candidate Is to vote for yourselves. To vote
for any other party le to vote against yourself. It is worse than throw
