READY FOR
CONFERENCE
I New York, March If—Announce
ment was made herq foday by the
| National Child Labor Committee
tha* all the details havb been com-'
pleted for the tenth annual nation- 1
al conference which will open '
at New Orleans on Sunday after- j
noon, March 15. Two score or
more of the most prominent advo
cates of better child labor laws rep
resenting as mauy sections of the ;
country have accepted invitations
to attend. Many w ill address the j
conference during the sessions
which will continue through Wed
nesday, March 18.
The two important subjects whicn j
will come before this year's con-1
ference '( was stated today, will'
be enforcement of child labor laws :
and the question ot federal leg- •
ialation with special reference to
the Owen Palmer child labor bill j
now pending in Congress. "The i
backwardness of southern states:
and the exemptions that weaken i
the laws of other states" also will !
bo discussed in detail. In connec
tion with today's announcement of
the program, Owen R. Lovejov, gen
eral secretary of the National
Child Labor Committee issued the
following appeal for funds:
"To cuiry out the study of meth
od of administration of child labor
laws we need a larger staff, for
our work will be more comprehen
sive than it has been in the past.
The legislative battle is far from
won and unless our income is great
ly incrc»8t-d we roust face tlie ser
ious qutsticn as t> 'Hhich line of
effort it is most urgently necessary
for us ro follow. "Vv'e should like
to celebrate our Te itn Annivesary
with a doubling of our membership
and a to'ul income of $100,000.
Then it would be possible for us
to continue our membership and
present work for tetter child labor
laws and to take up adequately the
matter of enforcemenf of the child
l?bor laws already enacted."
COMMUNICATED.
Editor of the Alaskan:
Bad men are getting good men to
believe that women are trying to
run this town.
Now it i3 quite the reverse.
Have we not called tile ticket
the Union Ticket?
No women will be on it.
We are going to hold a caucus in
the near future and ask the decent
men of this town to help us out.
We are asking some of the best
men of this town if they will
run and we will vote for them if
thoy are nominated.
If they are not, it will not be
the fault of the women.

PLATFORM PLANKS
ARE DISREGARDED
Discussion Over inteotion to
Repeal Free Toll Feature.
"PLATFORMS TO GET IN ON"
»Vorks Opposes Tendency to Tako Too
Much Money Out of Treasury—Why
Lane of Oregon Is Called "Enfant
Terrible" — Taggart Says Pacific
Coast's Defenses Are Weak.
By ARTHUR W. DUNN.
tVashington, Feb. 23.— [.Special.]—
When are platform declarations bind
ing? is a query that is interesting
Washington Just now. There are va
rious discussions regarding platform
pledges in and out of congress, and
some members of the Democratic party
are free and frank in calling attention
to instances where the platform Is be
ing ignored. Pretty soon we will be
hearing that old story about "political
platforms are like the platforms of
railroad cars; they are made to get in
on, but not to stand on."
Discussion of platform pledges arises
over the avowed intention upon the
part of the administration to repeal the
free tolls provision for coastwise HhJp
ping passing through the Panama ca
nal. Then Democrats of the house call
ed attention to the specific declaration
regarding publicity of indorsements for
judgeship appoint incuts at the time the
house reversed Its position on that sub
ject. After all. It is not important, for
It would be Impossible for any one ad
ministration to carry out all the plat
form declarations made in a national
convention.
Unfle Sam Must Pay.
Interesting, though somewhat sur
prising, was it speech made by Senator
Works of California In which be took
exception to the trend to take money
out of the treasury to pay for every
thing under the sun. Works has been
considered rather progressive in his
ideas and tendencies, and nearly all of
the things he criticised are the out
growth of progresslveness. Particu
larly is that true regarding commis
sions, the reclamation service, all kinds
of conservation, the building of a rail
road in Alaska and many other proj
ects.
Senator Works rather dolefully closed
his remarks by saying that he had no
hopes that anything he might say
would change the trend of legislation,
and he is about richt.
A Constant Surprise.
Somebody has called Senator Harry
Lane of Oregon the "enfant terrible."
This because he is constantly doing
some unexpected nnd oftentimes em
barrassing things. As a Democrat it
Is naturally supposed that he would
support Democratic ideas. It so hap
pened during the discussion of the ag
ricultural extension bill that the race
issue was Injected and became acute.
One day when Senator Iloke Smith of
Georgia was talking Lane broke in
and started telling a story and got as
far as "an old negro down south"—
"I do not yield to the senator for
anything further," said Smith sharp
ly. "I do not believe a word of that
story."
But Lane "stuck around," as Boies
Penrose would say, and he told a
story of an old negro somewhere in
the south who had made a great suc
cess at farming and had become a well
to do citizen.
From Unexpected Quarters.
When the war scare begins to brew
we hear from unexpected quarters re
garding the defenseless condition of
the country. Consequently it was with
surprise that observations from Con
gressman Taggart of Kansas were
made to the effect that the United
States was at the mercy of any power
that would attack us-on the Pacific
side. General Sherwood of Ohio tried
to pin the Kansan down to the spe
cific mention of a nation which threat
ened us in the Pacific, but Taggart
would not say that little word "Ja
pan," although everybody knew that
was what he meant.
Standing From Under.
The compiler of the Congressional Di
rectory is in no sense an editor or an
author, but simply puts together that
which is turned into him, in accord
ance with the footnote at the begin
ning of the biographical sketches of
senators and congressmen, which says,
"Biographies are based on informa
tion furnished by the respective sena
tors and congressmen."
No doubt the compiler does this to
show that he is not responsible for
some of the silly things which con
gressmen say of themselves in biogra
phies.
A Matter of State Bights.
"How on earth can any man recon
cile the dealing by the federal govern
ment with the civil subdivisions of
the states as being anything else than
going over the beads of the states?"
That was the question which Congress
man Borland of Missouri propounded
during the discussion of the good roads
bill. It appears that the United States
government not only deals with states
regarding the construction of roads,
but that it also deals with villages,
townships and municipal corporations,
which is going a long way in the face
of declarations for state rights. But
then an appropriation was attached to
the good roads bill.
Make The Stomach
Go Back To Work
Thea is tlie Whole System Glad.
Purola Dyspepsia Tablets Will
Quickly Put the Stomach In
Shape.
Wlien the stomach falls to-do its
work properly the whole machinc
ol man ifi unstrung and wholly in
capable of work. This condition
obtains from the tiniest nerve to
the big strong "jumping heart.
It is a wise law of nature tha.t
has made the stomach man's strong
est organ, but when it stops work
man ought to realize that it does so
because it can continue no longer.
Purola Dyspepsia Tablets will
certainly give the stomach the re
pair it needs and is always crying
aloud for.
A tablet taken after each meal
will in the course of several hours
become a portion o* the digestive
fluids. Ic will build uu these fluids.
First iu the stomach, then in
the intestines.
The liver is the storehouse of tue
body. Here are assembled all the
reserve fluids of the system and
here the various ingredients of Dys
pepsia Tablets mingle with the
faulty natural juices aud strength
en them, or if they aie too strong
then they will be reduced to their
proper strength and proportion.
Purola Dyspepsia Tablets con
tain a single ingredient, one grain
of which is sufficient to digest
3,000 grains of food. Just think
how gratefully such an element is
received into a body that cannot
digest at all without a new weaken
ing of the already depleted juices.
Go to Keller Bros. Drug Co this
very day and obtain a box of Purola
Dyspepsia Tablets, price 50 cents. A
week's trial will make you a new
man and your r.tomach will go
back to work.
