tion of Labor is being held in this
city. President WilsAn is journey
ing here from Washington to ad
dress the labor men and will make

HOME, Nov. 11.—The Italian
troops have disengaged themselves

suing their as ailant and blowing

trated in the state of Rio Grande

The clear, moonless nights at the
present time afford an idea’ oppor
tunity of becoming familiar with
the principal stars and constellations
of the sky. '1 he study of the sider
•al heavens is of surpassing interest
and not nearly so difficult as most
people imagine. At first glance the
stars seem to be scattered in end
le s confusion and in countless
numbers over the heavens, but as a
matter of fact, the numbers of
stars visible to the naked eye arc
relatively few in numbers, and flic
outlines of the constellations can be
traced out with no greated difficulty
than the boundaries of a country
on a map. After a few stars and
constellation^ are found and identi
fied, others can be located from a
star chart or atlas.
The constellations, or groups ol
stars, number 88, and about 4E
are visible in the latitude of Nome
I Of these, about 2 5are prominent
janil the rest incon picuous. Some
Or the constellations have popular
! names in addition to their proper
j names which is generally that of a
! animal or character in Greek or
Roman mythology. A few of the
bright stars also have proper names,
but the majority are designated by
the letters of the greck alphabet,
Alpha generally denoting the bright
est star in the constellation, Beta
the second brightest, Gamma the
third, etc. The stars are divided
into magnitudes from the first down
ward, the sixth magnitude being
barely visible to the naked eye
Twenty stats are of the first mag
nitude and twelve of these arc
visible at Nome. We will endeavot
to give a brief description of the
more prominent stars and constella
tions, as they appear in the sky it
the evening at the present date. •

■ To the Industrial Worker.
Gentlemen! I wish you to put this
1 in your paper ai d give it the froi)l
seat.
waciies and Gentlemen, I am a de
mocrat for over forty years, but 1
am no jobber.
The Saturday night meeting wc
lied .certainly was some meeting
i landed in Portland, Ore., n
1876 and I landed amongst tilt
Irish and I gues.;i you all know what
a Irishman’e religion is with th«
exepetion of a few, and 'hat bin
very few, they are easy counted.—
They will turn heaven and hell am
turn their coat five hundred times
in sight. Now Ladies and Gentle
men, where were all those good de
mocrats four years ago at (.he time
of the President-Election when we
took a straw vote at Yorkey Cigar
store and Woodiow Wilson was
elected we had scarcely a corporals
guard and do you know where they
were?
I will tell you: behind some
knewl or willow bush, watching and
waiting for the tide to turn when
the water started to run they came
down in dro/es and joined the
ranks, there was a line from Snake
River Grocery to the City Hall and
all good democrats and all reaching
for a front seat. Look at Saturday
night, there was no less than a
hundred put their names to the roll
some of them have drawn a salary
for the last four years in the Gov
ernment employ and some were in
the employ of the government in
189 9 when Lee was Marshal. Ladies
and Gentlemen I do not wish to go
into details but if they step on my
corns I will explode and I will bet
you a coon skin against your old
hat it will make an old grizzly
shiver or set all the malamutes in
.own a howling.
Now Ladies and Gentlemen, 1
ask you this, be easy, you have
i started a fire under the political pot.
Dont let it boil over like it done
| four years ago throwing slurs and
threats but have patience. I met
: Judge Holzheimer twice and only
| for a few seconds and I think be is
| a man that will put in good ma
| terial wherever he lias a vacant
space or control to do so, and I
dont believe that any republican
stoolpigeon can come to him and
I boost for his friends as has been
) done in this division. Now Ladies
and Gentlemen 1 ask you how many ,
men are there employed in the fed
eral offices that were democrats be
fore the President Election? Can
you count them, i can. There is <
one and his name Is Jerry Collins. I
There was Aliens, or now citizens j
who maybe still are drawing a 1
salary in that court house. It you !
are a democrat you can hunt them ;
up yourself.
Ladies and Gentlemen, is this
what 1 am writing, a democratic ad
ministration, do the peo
ple outside do what is done here in
Alaska, especially hero in this divi
sion, or do they know what is done
here but you can bet your sweet
life that some of them do know it.
Ladies and Gentlemen I am writing
this as a true blue democrat and not
as a jobber, I am sixty five years
of age, good mechanic and I have
a good shop, but still there is no
thing doing and I am working at
anything that I can make a honest
dollar. I ask for nothing if l am
not entitled to any thing, they can
please themselves.
I only a3ked once from a man
that made a promise out of his own
free win. I didn’t receive an an
swer until iate that winter or spring
and in one part of his letter he said:
“Fiiend Tom I am very sorry you
try has issued an official statement
say that the Maximilists afe not
representative of the people of Rus
sia and predict that they will fail.
SEATTLE, Nov. 11.—Vice Pre.-:i
Marshall -is in this city on a lecture
tour and when interviewed at his 1
hotel regarding the Russian situa- £
lion declared that the Boelshelski j
tegime will not hold council thirty ‘
days and expressed the confident be- !
lief that Kerensky will regain his [
lost power.

ITALIAN HEADQUARTERS IN j
ITALY,, Nov. 11.—The Briti h bat- j
1 teries have taken position along i
i
| front line and have prepared to give
1 support to the Italian rear guard. ,
i 1!
• are washed cut and perhaps you
! get it more so than any one but
you always been a good rustler and
1 hope you get work somewhere”, j
but in less than two weeks time he
showed his friendship by appointing
m n to positions that are holding
them today, but do you known what
Governor Strong said when he made
the appointment. This is the words
ho said: “Now what will 1 give Tom
: Albright?” But what did the other
man asy that, was there, he cer
tainly boosted for Tom Albright in
stead of the men that put him where
I he is today. Ladies and Gentlemen
four years ago when the pot was I
i a boiling and everything red hot
i I put quite a few items in the ln
i dustrial Worker to kind of cool
| and smoth tilings down. 1 just will
! tell you one, and it read like this.
j ‘Jl'I-'O Tinker and A*ar. :ivl Jordan!
| is ;loing just what any man with i
common sense would do to Keep and!
viuto the married rren. They will!
j have a round up some day and
tin se would be and turn coats try
ing to occupy a front seat will get:
.t where the chickens gbt the axe,
but a few days later I met Judge
Tucker in front of the Northern,
He wished to talk to me about
something, when I said “ycur honor
did you read ’.hat little poem in the
Worker!” "What was it Torn”. I re
j pealed to him and he said “yes
Tom’, when I *aid, "well sir the
other chickens got the axe and
woald-bes got the job”. He said
"Tom you are a bad actor”, and I
said "No Sir, I beg your pardon.”
Now Ladies and Gentlemen I ask
you once more, have patience and
everything will come out right at
the end. Some of my friends might
not quite appreciate what I have
written but it is nothing but the
| holiest tiuth and devil a bit I care.
Yours Respectfully
