"SHUV WHAT HK
THINKS KH>HT.
In the hearing of contested dele
gate* lo the National tO?wUw b'
the R-publican National committee
bold in Chicagtv June IT, when th?
matter of seating the six delegate*
at larce from A ri toil a * *5 under
discussion, the following excerpt
taken freta the record* shows w hat
part in the committee hearings Na- (
tional Committeeman Shaikleford
trom Alaska took:
After the committee had ^oted
the R?cwr?>lt faction down. Senator
Honk, in a vigorous speech, declar
ed the committee "was making it
impossible tor a republican to pre- 1
side over the nation for the next
four year* * "
"T>??ring the roil call a bitter |
attack on Mr Honey was made by
Committeeman Sfcackleford of Alas
ka, who voted for the Taft dele
gates He declared that Alaska
had been 'iobbed by the Noyes ma
chine' of Minnesota,' and that Fran
cts J Heney was its chief counsel.
" This gentleman,' Mr Shackle
ford said, "came ir.to this committee
on a proxy and his first yell was
about icrafx rule in San Francisco
I came here as a referee and im
partial judge 1 have seen the at
tempt of ct-rtain members to drive
this committee to do what they
want it to do 1. for one. refuse to
be intimidated or be driven from
doing wha, I think is right."
What would bo the result if this
statement of 1-ouU P. Shackleford's
was left to the people the voters
? of Alaska to decide as to the
merits of its sincerity. We believe
that the voter of Alaska knows
Louie Shackleford well enough that
' it Taft ha? such men as he for
his supporters^ there must he a
nigger in the wood-pile somewhere.
Tweedledee and Tweedledum are
much annoyed over the statement
made by certain business men that
the sampling stamp mill proposition
would again be brought before the
i-eople of Skagway with the idoa of
installing such a plant here.
Tweedledee is of the opinion that
the noise from the stamps falling
would deprive him of his well
earned sleep It is true that most
any noise which might occur in
' Skagway might awaken him from
his sleep, l ut we doubt very much
it the noise of the stamps of the
I famous Trvadwell mills could be
heard over the din which is occas
ioned by the noise he makes with
ibis hammt-r. and the knocking in
cident to the Herculean manner in
which he spends most of his time
In wieldin* it.
The Tweedledees and Tweedle
dums of Skagway have exchanged
i heir hammers for hatchets, and
are laying for the chicken exhibit
which the celebration committee
have planned Not one cent will
be taken f.-om the general fund for
the prizes or other expenses incident
upon such a display, and there will
be a vast amount of pood deprived
by Skagway in letting the visitors
that may be in attendance at the
celebration know that Skagway can
raise the f'"nest fowl on earth Go
bury tour hatches.
It way bp that the delegates are(
enjoying themselves la the swelter- j
inn beat of tb? Chicago Auditorium,
but it is nothing to be compared to
the suspense of people away off
waiting for them to get down to
business and do something. Fun is
tun, and parades are Interesting, es
pecially where there is an elephant
in line, but yesterday's proceedings
of the Republican National con
vention is not conducive to a mild
temper.
A Southern Michigan coroner's
jury has reported that an "unknown
man came to his death from an un
known implement in the hands of
some unknown person " Outside of
that it is understood there is no
question about the facts in the
case. -Ex.
The Federal treasury has a
; working balance of $68,000,000 on
* band, although it is a little risky
i to admit the fact with Congress
jetill in session. - Kx.

what Fisher's Blend Flour doks.
Considering the initial outlay, it's not a cheap flour.
But from the standpoint of results, it gives you more for
your money than any other flour on the market.
Discriminating buyers all know that cheap articles never wear well.
It's good economy to pay a little more for your things at the outset,
when you consider that they last a great deal longer. ^
I Icncc, we say of Fisher's Rlend Flour, that it
( \">sts More Pfr Sack ? Costs Less Per Loaf, which
means that this product is the cheapest to the con
sumer in the Jong run.
Since bread is one of our main food items, this advantage
makes Fisher's Bi.f.nd Flours necessity in every household.
