SOME COMBINATION
Big corporation lawyers and
bankers in a working clique to work
Alaska. Honestly folk, wrhere do we
come in? Unless you vote the Re
publican ticket straight there’ll be
no come in, but we’ll be shown just
where to get off.
FOR THE DOLLAR' IMPRESSION
The Petersburg edition of the
Chronicle says that the Delegate to
Congress, regardless of who he is,
is really little more than a rubber
stamp. And the above would have
that stamp a dollar stamp insead
of a stamp of human welfare.
Try Jonn Fanning for Arch Sa
ver Shoes for men, women and chib
dren. First class hosery on hand.
DAN’S TO BLAME
The weather, shifting from th
fogs of the 2lBt to heavy rains ant
southeast winds of the 23rd; th
I
•tides running nearly twice as higl
i.s the Petersgurg edition of th
Chronicle publishes them and th
| waning moon are all the faults o
Sutherland. Do not vote for a de
legate so negligent.
SMALL TOWN STUFF
We want ’em and we don’t wan
j ’em. Constantly there is complain
j because steamers pass us by, ye
w hen an effort is made to hav
them call excuses are offered to th
efl’ect that they,—the boats petition
ed to land,—might stop, also a
Scow Bay. Consistency, what.

this money—$57,000,000—saying
that we wanted to encourage people

by this trap fishing, you are destroy
ing practically the only method they
have of earning a livelihood.
If you are going to encourage
people to go there to live and make
their homes there, why do you not
protect them and give them some
way in which to make a living? Are
you going to continue this, and in
the course of a few years have all of
those fisheries destroye.d? The
gentleman from Kansas (Mr.
capacity, and those people pointed
out to us that when it was first put
iu it ran full capacity, and those
people said as it was then running
that within a few years there would
not be a salmon to be canned at that
place. What is true of Cordova is
true all over Alaska.
Talk about leaving it to the Se
cretary of Commerce! I submit that
the conduct of the Department of
Commerce with reference to the
Alaskan fisheries for the past two
years is discredit to the Ameircan
Republic.* *Are you going to con
tinue this policy and permit these
American canneries to destroy the
fisheries of Alaska.”—Congression

You can’t drown out the
Orthophonic Victrola
Five, ten, twenty or thirty couples—
all dancing their best and their gayest
—can’t drown out the beating rhythms
of the New Orthophonic Victrola. The
double basses, the steady notes of the
drums, the dynamic tubas, are repro
duced in full power. Let us demon
strate. Come in any time. The Con
solette, illustrated above, is only one
of the four beautiful models.
