Such a one is H B l.eFevre He
comes nearer filling the require
ment than any man aspiring to the
senatorship from this voting vicinity
Juneau has a candidate for the
senate in the person of Emery Val
entine Mr Valentine is the most
fortunate man in Alaska for tbe
enemies he has made. Go right
down the line and you will find that
every enemy of Alaska is likewise
an enemy of Kmery Valentine The
old gang has always fought him and
he has always whipped them. For
years they have been after his scalp
promising themselves that this time
we will get him," but each election
rolls in with a nice majority for,
\ aleatiue w for the man that Valen |
tine supports
As in the past. the same element
today is saying that Mr Valentine
is bad They whisper things dero
gatorr to l.im and take secret jabs
at him when he is not looking But
not one of them has the courage to
step up and try to point out *
single instance In which Mr Valen
tine has failed in his duty as a
cititen and a patriotic fighter for
Alaska ?f Valentine had ever
!.<*en crooked in one single instance,
that gang *ould have pounced on
him like a pack of wolves and de
\our*?d him while he still breathed,
but In all the fights for years that
they have made against him, he has
come out of the fray without a
blemish, and he has come out a win
ner, which is the one point that
rankles in their heart's core
The members of the Ketchikan
"Non-Partisan" ticket refused to
swallow the program framed up at
the Juneau convention, and the del
egates from that city have endorsed
Captain A. W. Thomas of the
Home Rule Party. In doing that
Ketchikan is doing something of
which she will be proud in the com
ing years Captain A. W Thomas
is one of 'he most brilliant men In
Alaska He haa a commanding
presence, ts a splendid orator, and
in the realms of literature he is ?
monarch He has read everything
and remembers It all. He was born
on the Atlantic coast and the first
sound that vibrated in his ears was
the roar of the ocean. He went to
sea and became a fisherman. From
i he banks of New Foundland to
the iSulf of Mexico he Is known and
admired Years ago he came to
the l*aclf!o and fished from the
Arctic to the tropic*; and while he
fished he stored his mind with the
gems of ,>oetry and thoughts of
great men He has been In Alaska
for fifteen years engaged In the bus
iness of fishing and he knows the
habits of the denltens of the deep
.is does perhaps no other man in
the north, because he has mingled
Ms brains with his labor and has
studied th* question In all its
phases
As a legislator he will give the
cannerymen their just rights and
he will just as impartially Insist
that the lonely fisherman with only
a troll and a canoe be treated as
fairly as the millionaire packer. For
several tertps Captain Thomas was
sheriff of Island county, Washing
ton. and the "Thomas brothers" are
still held in esteem in all the homes
of the San Juan islands. He is a
man whom we all may be proud to
vote for.
"EXTENDING" CREDIT.
A Kind of Banking That Didn't Ap

A grocer, who contemplated starting
a branch store, spent a day In the
store of the man whom be expected to
buy out Investigating neighborhood
conditions. Id came a little girl for
two pounds of sugar, a package of
starch, some floor, salt and coffee. Her
purchases came to 87 cents
"Mother will have a dollar tomor
row." she said, "and she will pay yon
then."
The grocer nodded "all right"
"And she wants the change now,"
the child added "She needs money to
buy thread."
Unhesitatingly be counted 13 cent*.
The visiting grocer was amazed.
"Is that the way you do business !
down here?" he asked.
"Have to." said the neighborhood
tradesman "Can't get along any otb
er way. Ton have to know the people
you can safely eitend credit to, but
the Judgment snd the wIlHo carry on

success In this part of town."
The grocer abandoned the new enter,
