| PANAMA, Oct. 25.—Following the
I inauguration of President Valdes on
October 1 the contest over the elec
1 tion, in which the opposition endeav
^ ored to the last to prevent his accept
\ ance by the United States govern
ment, appears finally to have melted
’ away. There is, indeed, a general
j feeling of relief that it is all over and
j there is a very general tendency to
! give the new president loyal support.
I President Valdez has informed the
| American miifister that he intends to
| push the investigation of the treasury
! and customs scandals to a finish. He
j. .appears also to h> in sympathy with
| the ministers suggestions that it is
j important to have a better system of
| accounting throughout the govern
i ment, but he has not expressed any
willingness to have an outsider ap
\ pointed to take charge of tthis work
; and to act as either fiscal adviser or
| auditor with plenipotentiary powers,
j as urged by the state department.
Harry Sherrod, who has been at
j Matanuska all summer, has opened the
! Rexal Barber Shop at C and Fourth.

COLD TURKEY FOR
OLD DOUGLASITE
(Douglas Island News.)
In the following article from the
New York Financial World of Sep
tember 30, the party referred to as
“hailing from distant Douglas, Alas
ka,’ is none other than .our fellow
townsman, Barney Conrad, who, ac
companied by Mrs. Conrad, left here
for the east late in August:
“It pays sometimes to stay away
from the stock ticker. One day last
week a subscriber of the Financial
World, hailing from the distant Doug
las, Alaska, came into the office of
this publication to renew his sub
scription. In a talk with one of the
editors he said he had been In the far
north country for 16 years, and
thought it about time for his wife
and himself to see a little of the Unit
ed States. He happened to have 50
shares of International Mercantile
Marine preferred stock which he
thought he would like to sell. He
bought it at $25 per share years ago,
and wondered if the psychological mo
ment had not arrived. Given a letter
to a stock exchange house, our for
tunate subscriber was in a position
to sell his stock at 125, a price which
would give him a profit of $5,000. An
other experience he related was not
quite so happy. It was that he had
in the early days bought ten shares
of Bethlehem Steel common at 25 and
sold it out at.35. Had he held it un
til now he could have duplicated in
this stock his success in Mercantile
Marine.”
