Democratic Party Menaces
Country's Welfare
(Special Dispatch to Daily Alaskan.)
Boaton, Oct. 10? The republicans
ratified the re-nomination of Gov.
Curtis Guild, jr.. last night at one of
the greatest political meetings ever
held in this city, in addition to Gov.
Guild, Senators Lodge, Crane and Bev
eredge spoke. Senator Lodge said that
the comina:ion of William R. Hearst
to be governor of New York is proof
that the radical elements in the dem
ocratic party, which aims at arranging
class against class and which strives to
develop class hatred, is in control of
that party. Let it succeed, he said,
and it will end in the distruction of
property and soc.alism. He said this
feeling has been fostered by William
J. Bryan in several past presidential
ampaigns. He said the democratic
arty has fallen into such a position
that it is a positive menace to the wel
fare of the country
Senator Beveredge said the demcrat
ic party, since the time of Martin Van
Buren, has been only a party of oppo
sition. As predicted republican suc
cess.

By applying an antiseptic dressing to
wounds, bruises, bums and like injuries
before inflammation sets in, they may
be healed without maturation and in
about one-third the time required by
the old treatment. This if the greatest |
discovery and triumph of the modern
surgery. Chamberlain's Pain Balmj
acts on* this same principal. It is an
antiseptic and when applied to such in
juries, causes them to heal very quick
ly. It also allays the pain and soreness
and prevents any danger of blood
poisoning. Keep a bottle of Pain Balm
in your home and it will save you time
and money, not to mention the incon
venience and suffering such injuries

Trouble For Government Clerks
'Vongress makes lots of unnecessary
rouble for tiie government clerks,"
Ul :i veteran employee, "but tb?
worst ca sc I know of occurred some
years ago. A certain seuator ask*?
{lie comptroller of the currency to tell
blm bow much stock a certain man
ha<l in a national bank. He was In
I'ormc.l that such Information wag r*
girded as confidential and could not b?
givou out."
"We'll see aliout that," said the sen
Btor. who was plainly disappointed anfl
displeased.
"Several days later he secured the
passage of a resolution calling upon
the secretary of the treasury to furnlsb
the senate with the uames and holdings
of the stockholders In all the national
banks In the country. He rea!!j want
ed to know only the Interest of one
man in a hank, but be knew that b?
couldn't set a resolution of that kind
through the senate, so he Included the
stockholders la all national banks. It
took the entire force of the comptrol
ler's office several weeks to prepare the
information, aud when It reached the
senate nobody paid any attention to tt
except the author of the resolution, and
he merely looked at the mass of paper*
only lonp enough to see about the man
he was after and then tossed the pa
pers aside. It was an Immense lot of
work for nothing."? Washington Star.
Thr Abbr'a Criticism.
An American lady residing In Rom#
presented to a friend, who is an abbe,
m intellectual man aud familiar with
English, although no traveler, a copy
of one of Mary Wilkins' New England
stories.
"The author of this, my deur friend."
she said, "is the best portrayer of New
England character we have. No other
writer has caught so well the charm of
the place and tbe people. I hope you
will like it."
Tbe abbe took the book and thanked
her. lu a few days he came again and
returned it gingerly, saying a word or
two of thanks.
"Were you not pleased with the
quaint portrayal of the life?" asked
the lady.
"You say this is a faithful portrayal
of life in New England?"
"Very faithful Indeed."
The abbe sighed and said, with deep
sympathy, "How sad!"? Reader Maga
