FOR VALDEZ AND ALASKA.
President Wilson wants Charles E.
Bunnell elected to congress from
Alaska as an indorsement of his ad
ministration and of what he has done
for Alaska. It is conceded that the
president has done more for the de
velopment of Alaska than was done
in nearly half a century since Alaska
came under the American flag.
If you are a Democrat don’t you
think you ought to support your pres
ident, who has earned the respect
of men of all parties? If you are a
Republican don’t you think you ought
to support par’y regularity rather
than a man who has tried to claim
affiliation with several parties and
imitation parties within two years and
a half?
And if you are an Alaskan don’t
you think you will do more for Alas
ka by voting to send a man to con
gress who will have the favor of the
national administration?
And setting all bunkum aside, don’t
you think it a good idea for Valdez
to give a majority for ,the candi
date favored by the president; a man
whose loyalty to Valdez is undoubt
ed, rather than a man who objects to
“increased road appropriations” un
less the money is to be expended by
somebody he likes?
It is reported that the opposition
saloonmen have formed a combina
tion to defeat Al. White for election
to the house in the territorial legis
lature.

The Mystery of Forts.
The Russo-Japanese war and the
Balkan war led all military men to
believe that modern fortifications, if
not impregnable, could at least be
counted on to Impede an advancing
army for weeks or months. Liege,
Longwy and Mauberge resisted stub
bornly. But Huy, Namur and the
La Fere forts, supposed to be the
strongest of all, seem to have fallen
ingloriously. Lille was evacuated
without a blow. It Is of course pos
sible that no serious effort was made
to defend them. But this matter of
the forts is the prime mystery of
the war, so far.—Arthur Bullard
(“Albert Kdwards”) In the Outlook.
"Sea-sick, my dear old fellow!
What’s the matter? The sea’s like
a duck pond?”
"I know, old boy—but I’ve taken six
—different—remedies.”
"How’s vacation, Johnnie?”
"Bully! Fell off a shed, most got
drownded, tipped over a beehive, was
hooked by a cow, Jim Spindles lick
ed me twice an’ I got two stone
bruises and a stiff neck!”

With Toys tor S. Blum & Co.
It is generally understood that the United States has
been importing most of its Toys and a great many Holi-.

all importations have ceased. Limited supplies, how
ever reached this country prior to the declaration of
war, ond owing to the presence of our MR. KRAMER IN
EASTERN MARKETS at the RIGHT TIME we have
been able to secure a large and well assorted stock of
Toys and Christmas Novelties
We are now busily engaged in opening and displaying
these goods, and in a few days we will be ready to have
our many patrons call and inspect them. You will not
be compelled to send out for anything, either on account
of assortment or price. OUR PRICES WILL BE AS
LOW AS THOSE IN THE STATES.
