DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by local applications, as they cannot
rvaoh the diseased portion of the car.
Ttoere Is only one way to euro deaf- 1
cose, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
Inflamed condition of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube Is inflamed
you have a rumbling eound or iniper
feet hearing, and when k is entirely
closed, deafness Is the result, and ur
else the inflammation oan be taken
out and this tube restored to Ms nor
mal condition, hearing will be de
stroyed forev>er; nine case? out of tei
ere caused by Catarrh, which is noth
ing but an inflamed condition of the i
mueous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars

Catarrh) that cannot be cured by

Skagwav Alaska. May 29, 1911.
Editor Skagwav Alaskan
As you have asked me to write my
impression o" our Delegate to Con
gress, James Wickersham, 1 gladly
comply.
I have known .Midge Wickersham
somewhat intimately for the last el
even years, both as a man and as a
jiidge. Prom my observations of his
conduct as a judge 1 am prepared to
>>-?dorse the opinions of two Judges
of the Court of Appeals which has
jurisdiction over Alaska cases, who
both told me this winter that Judge
Wickersham was the best judpe Al
aska has ever had.
As a man, he has been growing
steadily in my esteem. Both in and
?v * of office, he has never missed
a chance to do a Kindness, and I
have never made a request of him
Ihp* he has not done all in his pow
er fulfill.
sham when he firs*, ran for Congress
n 190$. having pledged my vote to
j.eod old Major Clum. I did vote
and work heartily for his re-election
in 1910, because I was convinced that
he was the strongset man we eouH j
send to Congress to *'ght for Alas
ka's best interests. 1 liked his re
>Mrd thus far. especially his remark
s' e work in defeating the iniquit
( idge bill, which sought to govern
"a by an appointive commission of
Kasteru carpet baggers as though we
v< ere Philipino Tagalogs. That the
credit of defeating this bill belongs
a1 most entirely to Delegate Wicker
sham nobodv conversan' with the
f*C- will attempt to deny. The
'?dds against him were tremendous,
I ie whole power and influence of
the administration, the Guggenheim
millions, the Hoggatt-Shackleford po
litical machine, all the self-seeking
politicians hoping for fa' offices in
H'tss, the Army, the Navy, all these
and other forces which wished to ex
t Alaska for" their own interests
combined to pass that Tory bill,
i at our Delgeate had the courage,
s? , energy and finess 4 defeat the
Eeveridge Bill, may well make us
Tfoud of him. If he had done nothing
more than that it would be sufficient '
to stamp hint Alaska's best friend.
But he has done much more. Dur
ing *he past winter I saw Delegate
Wickersham frequently in Washington
'r his office and on the floor of the
t ? closing days of Congress. He
was always hard at work for the
welfare of the people * Alaska He
has written a score of bills all look j
ng towards territorial government . j
and rights for Alaskans, better minir
laws, the care of the lmrge-.r Mm?:
I ^fcthouses, etc In short a'l Ills
MLs have been wisely con<<i\ed and
skillfully written, and all r<-< in tlio
i: lerest of 'hp people ?t large. His
01 ergy and skill have fore, d most of
these bills throng!) the lower house,
and If some ot them have failed to
pass the Senate, It was beeanse of
vile antagonism of political tlmeserv
*rs and grasping monopolies. With
'he present Congress, the Wick orsha a(
for territorial organization, the
opening of the coal lands for bona
f!de locations, the revision of the
mining laws, and other measures de
sired by Maskans. are likely to pass,
Wickersham has won his fight for re
cognition. One oT his fellow congress
men told me that he was acknowled
s< d to be one of the most forceful
m mbers of the House When he
speaks Congress listens. He is accor
?\1 a place on important committees
and is never 'n the background.
James Wickersham is no saint, A
man as impulsive, hot-tempered and
combative as he, is sure to make
iV? takes ? to say things in the heat
of argument that were better left un
said. When attacked, he is much
more apt to present the other fist
t.an the other cheek. He loves a
food fight and never turns his back
to an antagonist But his faults are
cf that sturdy, rnMed character. that
rrther endow hnn to an Alaslrtn Al^
though a minister of the gospel of
I eace, 1 must myself confess to taore
II king for a strong sinner than tor a
weak saint, A man like Wlckertham
w' ; always make warm enemies and
wprm friends.
Alaskans believe In him. I always
found his office in Washington full
jf Alaskans, and his mail large with
kt'ers from Alaskans. He was strain
iPj every nerve to help every Alas
inn, because he is a thorough Alas
kan. And the people of the Terrl
I ?< r / and a rapidly growing number
! :f the people of the Unltde States
| o with him heart and soul in his
struggle for the government ofAlas- j
ka by Alaskans and for Alaskans.

While the tourist leaves his ship
upon arrival at. Skagway with the
f.-.'ling that he has r cached the city

ind he is anxious to sec the many

a' cut the town which was the out
fitting point of the hardy pioneers
? ho in '?7 poured over the summit
of the White Pass Into the mighty
\ .ikon country, his firs' query is
"Where are the big curio stores I
have heard so much about?"
I' seems that he has made the on
tlr trip solely for the purpose of
Lilhg able to visit the stores and
Luy some of the rare curios and rel
cs that have been secured by the
U?.alers.

of her stores, and particularly of I)
