ABOUT CALE
Sketches of Alaskan Dele
gate to Congress
Thomas Cale, elected to represent
the Territory of Alaska in the 60tb
congress, is % native of Underhill, Ver
mont, where he was born September 17
1848. He secured a thorough common
school education in the schools of his
native state. In 18ti9, upon reaching
his m*jority, following the advice of
Horace Greeley, he started west, locat
ing at Fond du Lac, Wis., where he
spent the major portion of his life time,
and where he reared a family,
Mr. Cole was in business at Fond du
Lac much of his early life. In I8S3 he
was chosen by his fellow citizens to be
a member of the board of county super
visors. He was re-elected in 1SS4 and
again in li<8o. In ISSti he was nominat
ed by the republican party of his
county for sheriff and elected. After
serving two terms as county sheriff he
was chosen to t>e clerk uf the court of I
Fond du Lac county.
The panic of 1&?3 claimed Mr. Cale
as one of its thousands of victims, and
he started farther west, seeking new op
portunities. The Klondike stam
pede carried him to Dawson after he |
had spent some time in the Dakotasj
and Montana. He passed througn
Skagway in ISiX? and arrived at the
Klondike metropolis in the fall of that
year.
tor five years Mr. Cale courted the
golden gjddess with varied success in
the Klondike, prospecting when he hail
the money and working for wages when
broke.
The Tanana strike called Mr. Cale
back to the domain of his native country
in since which time he has been
an Alaskan. There, as at Dawson, he
prospected for gold and devt loped
claims he had located when he had
money, and worked for wages and cut
cord wood for a stake when he bad not
sufficient money to permit him to con
tinue prospect ine. He finally located
property which he believes will make
him a fortune when he shall have dis
posed of the litigation which always
follows the discovery of pay in Alaska.
After a protracted deadlock between
Mr. Collins and Mr. Konan the convent
ion of the Tarana Miners Association
nominated Mr. Cale for delegate to con
gress on the ltith ballot last May. He
almost immediately set out on a cam
paign wbich covered the entire district
with exception of the precincts and
towns oat at the Westward. He has
been succeeful by an overwhelming
majority.
In politics Mr. Cale is a democrat?
"A Bryan democrat," he says. He was
always a republican until 189t? when he
followed thousands of others out of his;
party fcr the Nebra'kan. Since then
he has always claimed allegiance to the
democratic party, but he had nothing to
do with politics.
Mr. Cale would meet the require
ments of President Roosevelt on the
question of race suicide. He has a
family of seven children- -four sons and
three daughters? who are living in
Wisconsin and prospering. The sons
are in business there.
Mr. Cale will take his seat in congress
at the first session after March 4, 1907,
If there shall be no extra session that
will bv on the first Monday in December,

HOUSEHOLD CARES
pgi tb? Women of Alaika the Sums!
a* Flnewhera
Hard to attend to household duties
With a constantly aching back.
A woman should not have a bad back,
And she wouldn't if the kidney were
well.
Doan's Kidney Pills make well kidney.
Here is a woman who endorses this
claim:
Mrs. Charles Wetmore, of 2518 Will
iam Street, Bellingham, Wash., says:
"I had attacks of kidney complaints at
various times for several years, indicat
ed by backache, difficulty with the kid
ney secretions, pain and soreness across
the kidneys and weariness and languor.
1 could not get proper or necessary
sleep at night. My strength seemed
insufficient to proform the ordinary
household duties without distress anc
In other ways when suffering from thes>
spells my health was in a bad condition. :
I had an attack some time ago, and
knowing of the merits of Doan's Kidney
Pills I sent for a box. TTie pills stopped
the backache almost immediately and
soon corrected the action of the kidney
sectetions. My health was greatly im
proved and I have no hesitation in re
commending Doan's Kidney Pills for
anv complaint similar to those which
affiicted me."
