Will Support The
People’s Policies
BECAUSE
ALL statutes should be permanent and bene
ficial to the whole people.
LABOR 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
vision will never have cause to regret
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
co-operate with me in bringing about
I beneficial legislation for the Third Divis
ion and the Territory in general, and
promise, if elected, to represent you and
to work for the best interests of all the
people. Your support is solicited at the
> election to be held Tuesday, November,
3, 1914.
Candidate for the Territorial Legislature
from the Third Division.

WHISKER CULTURE.
A Critic Who Does Not Like the Hang
ing Garden Effect.
In the American Magazine James
Montgomery Flagg, writing a piece on
‘‘Wblskerculture,” contributes the fol
lowing permit to cultivate hanging gar
dens on the face:
“This is to certify that the bearer,
— -, has permission to stand on
the grass in any part of Central park,
or other city parks, during May and
June and pretend be is a spiraea busb.
“If by any chance be should begin to
bear currants or marrons glaces he
must allow the commissioner of parks
first pickings.
“He is required also to permit any
uniformed official of the Long Island
railroad lost and found department to
enter his beard at will, without a writ
ten order, and search for lost purses,
umbrellas or packages of pressed beef
or coins of any denomination.
"On the 2d of February he agrees to
step out from his cocoon and, if he
sees his own shadow, report it immedi
ately to the bourd of health and crawl
back again.
“In going over his privet hedge in
the fall, before putting it In camphor,
be must destroy all nests he comes
across.
“On national and state holidays be is
permitted to string Japanese lanterns
in any part of the shrubbery above
Forty-Becond street, but he is forbid
den to set off any Homan candles or
red light in It.
“During the open season for grouse
or caribou he must have his entire
beard adequately patrolled. He agrees
to report to Washington if any careless
tourists start tires In any portion of
this tract, especially near any ranches.
He agrees to see before retiring that no
lighted cigar butts are left smoldering
in the underbrush.
“If all these regulations are faithfully
carried out his beard will be set aside
as a national purk in January of the
following year.”
THE HILL OF TARA.
Where In Ancient Times the Kings of
Ireland Were Crowned.
In the count; of Meath Is supposed
to have stood the hall of Tara, cele
brated as being the palace of the an
cient Irish kings. There seems to be
no doubt that on the hill of Tara the
national assemblies met once a year to
consult on the affairs of the kingdom
and to make laws. The lawgivers
were a class of druids called Brehons,
who acted as magistrates and Judges.
They did not hold their courts of Jus
tice In any hall, DUt seated themselves
on the top of a hill In the open air,
where they heard all complaints that
were brought before them and decided
every cause according to their own
Ideas of right and wrong.
The hill of Tara Is also famous In
Irish history ns the spot on which the
kings were crowned. The throne, or
seat of inauguration, was a black
stone, which was called Lea Fall, or
the fatal stone, said to have been
brought In the early ages from Spain,
and It wns therefore held In high ven
eration. it wns either borrowed by
Feargus the Great, an Irish chief, or
else It was carried away, among other
spoils, by the Scots In one of their In
vasions of Ireland and was ever after
ward used as a coronation seat of the
kings of Scotland at the abbey of
Scone until It wns conveyed away by
force of arms, together with the crown
and scepter, by Edward I. to England,
who plnced it In Westminster abbey,
where It still exists and forms the ba
sis of the coronation chair to this day.

Roosevelt at a Woodchopper.
When he owned a ranch In the west
Theodore Roosevelt as he says In his
autobiography, "could chop fairly well
for an amateur,” but be admits that
he could not do one-third of the work
that his men did.
“One day,” he writes, “when we were
cutting down the cottonwood trees to
begin our building operations, I heard
some one ask Dow what the total cut
had been, and Dow, not realizing that
I was within hearing, answered, *Well,
Bill cut down fifty-three, I cut forty
nine, and the boss, he beavered down
seventeen.’ Those who have seen the
stump of a tree that has been gnawed
down by a beaver,” adds Mr. Roose
velt, “will understand the exact force
of the comparison.”

□•legate Wlckertham 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
vades thle 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 Socialist candidates arc nominated and controlled by working
men, and must help you when that time comes. Can any of the other
candidates say as much?
To vote for the Socialist candidate is to vote for yourselves. To vote
for any other party la to vote against yourself. It Is worse than throw
ing your vote away.
