THE BELL'S MESSAGE
* •
Again has a call gone forth for
the Liberty Bell."# dan Fran
cisco wants it for Uiq Panama
Pacitic exposition. But Phlladel
pnia u loath to let it go.
TUe attitude of Philadelphia is
natural and in one way commend
able. It Is the custodian of this
most priceless symbol ot American
freedom and Independence. The
hist-rlc association* which make
the bell what It la are la that city.
The old bronze messenger that
proclaimed the birth ot the nation
is gradually weakening under thQ
attacks of time and the dangers
which railroad travel would sub
ject it to must be considered.
But the bell belongs to the coun
try and not to Philadelphia. And
as the country can nol go to It it
should go to the countfy jpon prop
er occasion and at reasonable inter
vals. For the Liberty Bell is more
than a relic. It speaks Its mas
sage more clearly and inspiringly
today to all Americans who behold
it thau it did to the waiting throng
ju Pslladelphla on the Fourth of
July in 1776.
The Liberty Bell should make
tl e journey from Philadelphia to
San Francisco and back this year.
That journey should be made slow
ly, carefully and solemnly, with a
propoi guard of honor. At almost
every foot of its progress of nearly
three thousand miles across the
continent It would be awaited by
throngs of reverent Americans who
need and would he the tetter tor
the keener touch of patriotic emo
tion which the sight of it calls
forth It would impart to our new
brothers from far lands in an in
stant, a great deal of what we are
slowly conveying to U>em by in
struction and association.
The Liberty Bell has a high
mission which it can not properly
perform IX it is permitted to rust
in constant seclusion in the old
state house in Philadelphia.
THE STROLLER
As an election for selecting mem
bers of the territorial legislature is
drawing near, the Stroller deems
the occasion fitting for offering a
few pointers to those who may
la'.er be nominated as candidates,
to whom the following and sugges
tions are made In a spirit of kind
ness and brotherly love:
Do not pretend that the nomina
tion was thrust upon you. Just
speak out and say you sought it on
account of your unquenchable love
for people whose condition you in
tend, if elected, to ameliorate. (See
A'ebster.)
Attend church regularly until af
ter election, always having an un
foided bill for the collection plate.
Be careful to deposit it firmly but
gently in the plate with the figures
up.
In delivering an address to the el
ectors do not confuse the words
"Anarchy" and "Arnica. "~lt would
not be recherche to say "The coun
try is bordering on a a state of ar
nica."
■Never hesitate to denource plutoc
racy While many may not know
whether plutocracy is a disease or
a loothwash, they will think more
of you for being opposed to it.
To refrain from kissing a baby
which may even show indications of
foot and mouth disease will be fatal
to your aspirations. Refer to its
lovely complexion and say some
thing about it taking after its ma
in that respect Women, although
not allowed to vote in Yukon, see
to it that their husbands never vote
against the man who admired their
complexion—or says he does.
Exercise discretion as to when to
eat pie with & knife and pout coffee
in the saucer to blow It before drink
Ing. While such actions will en
dear you in some instances, they
will queer you in others.
Make your invitations to "have
■omethlng" general. It is not dl
| plomatic to only invite voters,
j Don't leave deposits at bars for
Creating "the boyB" later. In such
events the barkfeep usually pockets
'.he edposli, and your well-meant
generosity is unhonored and unsung,
r In the matter of public patronage,
promise all of it to the horny-hand
ed prospector who will invest his
earnings in an outfit and hike into
the hills. (Note the word "prom
ise.")
In making a house-to-house can
vas for votes and where the woman
j ot the house makes a specialty of
opposing the demon rum, give
"hubby" the high sign and he will
be sufficiently resourceful to in
vite you outside to see something.
A man with a wife of that kind is
always resourceful. He makes It a
study.
Do not make any charges against
the opposing candidate, but admit
that he is a man of many good
points, but—(Follow the last word
with an ominous shake of the head.jj
A quietly conducted canvass is
lsually more effective than platform
speech making. At the latter there
is usually some Rube who persists
in asking e in harassing questions
aDout your attitude on the labor
situation.
It is always safe to say you are
in favor of, and in sympathy with
libor unions when they are properly
coniucted. But never make the mi:i
take of venturing an opinion as to
how they should be conducted.
Favor the lavish expenditure of
public moneys and a general reduc
tion of licenses and taxes. While
the two measures are not tenable,
few will notice It. They will think
you are a statesman.
Denounce mititarlsm In thunder
ous tones, but admit that, as man
ajid man, you have no quarrel with
Germans. The least y°u can say is
tha". they make excellent kraut.
Favor wholesale road construc
tion, the reduction of transporta
tion charges and more favorable
legislation to the prospector. The
latter has been the goat for a long
time, but he is good for a few
more laps.
Tnese are just a few suggestions
which the Stroller offers in a gener
al way to those who are now " In
tie hands of thetr friends." Later
on and after the candidates are sel
ected he can, on application and
; when properly "approached," Bup
p)y more specific instruction about
knocking persimmons.

A BIT OF ADVICE
First—Don't Delay. Second—Dan'K
Experiment*
If you suffer from backache;
headaches or dizzy spells; if you
rest poorly and are languid In the
morning; If the kid nay secretions
are irregular and unnatural in ap
pearance, do not delay. In such
eases the kidneys often need help.
Doan'e Kidney Pills are especial
ly prepared for fcidney trouble—they
are recommended by thousands.
Can kidney sufferers desire more
convincing proof than the statement
following.
James M. Cahlll, stationary en
gineer, 247 Harrison St., Portland,
Oregon, says; "Nothing has occur
red to alter my high opinion of
Doan's Kidney Pills and I confirm
my former endorsement ot them
given some year® ago. Sine© then,
I have been helped by Doan's Kid
ney Pi 11a and I believe that they
bave no eQual for kidney and blad
der trouble."
Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy—
get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same
that Mr. Cahill had. Foster-Mll

A FACT PROVEN.
\
Should Convince Even the Moat Skep
tical of Its Troth.
If there Is the slightest doubt in the
minds of any that Dandruff germs do not
exist, their belief Is compelled by the
tact that a nbbit lnnoculated with th"
germs became bald in six weeks' time
It must be apparent to any persor
therefore that the only prevention of
baldness Is the destruction of the germ -
which act is successfully accomplished
In one hundred per cent, of cases by
the application of Newbro's Herplclde.
Dandruff Is caused by the name germ
which causes baldness and can be pre
vented with the same remedy—Newbro"!

WILD GOOSE LIFE.
fh. Gander Is a Master of Strategy
and a Fierce Fighter
VVe know nothing of tlie courtship
of the wild goose, but we feel assured
that It must be a seemly mid worthy
affair. Once mated. there Is no fur
tber need for vows and protestations
for the birds mute foi life Together
they unite in buildiug the nisi nut the
goose alone wotebes over tlit*
while day and night the gamlet waives
In all directions on water mid -in land
his trails of watchfulness
Neither man nor beast may approach
without being fiercely ami successfully
assailed, buffeted and routed by a re
lentless attack with beak and wlnps
This guardianship is trebled when the
new generation, helpless mid depend
ent. voices Its first need for protec
don from the perils which encompass
and beset It
if. perchance, the small family elects
to remain on the shore the parents
will circle round and round the group
of golden goslings, and it danger
threatens from any one direction the
gander, by some miracle of strategy
will succeed In placing himself at the
one ruinemble point of his intrench
ment. Ills loyalty, astuteness and un
selfishness are not to be found iu those
unobservant folk who have presumed
to slander him.
In swimming the strictest discipline
is maintained. The young form in
single file, following the mother, while
the gander brings up the rear with
eyes constantly sweeping the whole
range of vision His vigil is ceaseless
( and nntlrlng.
! Such la the life of these two birds
that are mited In more than sex. and
when death comes to one or the other
of them we know that many times the
one that remains will seek no other
mate, but will return each spring to
the site of his former nest, which he
will ueveT renew again Atlantic
