accomplished what his more cautious

Visitors TO Sitka pronounce it not a
0ad thing at all to be IA girl in Alaska
society, for girls are n long way above
par in the social swim. There are card
parties and receptions, there are teas
and dinners on the trim little gunboats
With men to preside at the urn and
ihow how badly even the best of the
sex do the things woman does Sc
gracefully. There are balls in the
2ussian castle on the hill. where in the
old days the Muscovite governors
brought their high bred wives and held
carnival through the long Alaska
winters. Like the japanese, in case OF
company everybody horrows of every
body. The governors wife is served
from her own china at the captains
dinner, and the lieutenant's bride may
eat from her own wedding spoons at
the paymaster's party. but there is less
strife and envy and uncharitableness
than in social circles at the great CEN
ters of civilization, where everybody is
striving To outdo everybody else.

Here is an item, says the philadel

ocratic campaign spell binder should
paste in his hat, or rather on the
out side Of it, where everybody can
see it. It should also be thrown
upon the steropticon sheet in front
OF every Democratic headq quarters in
the country. The exports of the
United States for the month OF
September, 1898, amounted to $72.>
100000. The figures for September
1894, were $50, 900, a difference
of $l3,OO0,0O0. This is the way the
American manufacturer is getting
his grip on those wonderful "markets
OF the world" our tariff reform friends
never weary Of talking about; and
this is the way the thing will work
Mll the time. The best market in the
world for the American manufac-
turer is the home market, and when
hc surrenders this, or good rart of
it, to ais foreign competitor and
goes out in search Of those free trade
markets OF the world, he will be
following a jack.o lantern that will
lead him into the mire of hopeless
bankruptcy. In this tariff Discus
sion one ounce of facts is worth
ton OF reform theory any time, and
the export figures above referred to
tell story that must confound the
enemies OF American industry eyery>

Chamberlain Pain Balm. Hardley day

need Of it. A toothache or headache may
be cured by it. A touch of rheumatism
or neuralgia quicted. The severe pain of
burn or scald promptly relieved and the

medicine has to be sent for. A sprain may
be promptly treated before inflammation
sets in, which insures cure in about one
third of the time other wise required
Cuts and bruises should receive immediate
treatment before the parts become swollen
which can only be done when the Pain
Balm is kept at hand. A sore throat may
be cured before it becomes serious. A

ply ing it twice Cay for week or two.
A lame back may be cured and several

A few days more and the voters of
this county will 60 marching to the
polls to cast ballots for one party or
another. From reports of men hail
ing from all sections of the county
we feel satisfied that the Republi-

Monroe H. Kulp, solid, honest and

that the strength he has developed
since his candidacy was first an
nounced has grown to such magni-
tude as to make us certain that Chas.
Buckalew and his followers will be
greatly surprised on election night
when they hear of the phenomenal
runs made by Mr.. Kulp in seemingly
Democratic strong holds. The op>
position party is aware that Mr.
Kulp is making great inroads. Many
Democrats welcome him like they did

majority as to convince the Democrtic
leaders in this county that the rank

convinced that in order to bring
more money into their homes il was
necessary to vote for the party work,
ing in the interest of the freside.
Times have grown worse since
last spring simply because the Dem.
ocratic leaders at Washington have
acted in such uncertain manner as
to cause the greatest distrust. The
masses are aware that it is necessary
to place Republican majority In
Congress. That is the reason the
voters of this county aided in the
good work by sending Mr.. Grow to
Washington with such a big majority
They will continue the good wo. k BY
sending Mr.. Kulp there. After

everywhere if the Republicans secure
