Valdez Proverbs.

The foolish man bloweth i'm his
coin AT Faro, and the seductive stud
Poker. And he wasteth away his
substance in strong drink.
Verify it leadeth him to partake
OF his meals ut free lunch counters.
and rest his aching limbs ON the
soft side of board.
His days will be few, and full of
trouble.
But the wise man readeth the
ALASKA PRosPECToR and he is posted
and he betaketh himself to Rich
ards IL Co.
And he buyeth from Richards a
yum-yum spring and hiyu soft
mattress, and dreameth of Rail-
roads and Corner Lots.
And he thsoweth away his old
tenas soap boxes and buyeth up-to-
date chairs.
And if he loveth his wife, he will
buy her Il new stove, a carpet and
a nice easy rocker.
And if he doeth all these things,
his troubles will disappear like dew
before the morning sun and life in
Valdez will he one continual round
of pleasure. His riches will in
crease and multiply. Yea, his raj
ment will be OF purple and fine
linen and he will fare sumptuously
from day to day.
Verify he will become a great
man and power i'll the land and
his days can he numbered only as
the sands OF the sea.

Rohherx and Murder.

UNIONTOWN. Pa, April 14.-Alfred ]. Jones, wealthy farmer and uncle of District Attorney Jones, was mur- dered and his house robbed near Cans by three burglars. A voice inquiring the way to the railroad about 3 o'clock in the evening attracted Jones to the door, and as he opened it he saw three men who had quietly slipped up. While Jones was trying to push the door shut one of the burglars reached around the door with his revolver and fired at Jones. He fell to the floor at the first shot, and the burglars had everything their own way. Two sisters who lived with Jones were locked in the kitchen and guarded by one of the men, while two went to the room where Jones kept his chest. The heavy chest was broken open, and everything of value was talk en. No trace of the murderers has as yet been found.

This accounts, perhaps, for the hattering notices given to .The Night Before Christmas by the newspapers and the magnificent commendation given by the public. With popular prices prevailing for the engagement, it ought to prove one of great populari- ty and success.

Save Your Homes

The calamities that would befall thousands upon
thousands Of the people in the event Of democratic
victory are appalling All Of readers recall with
horror the awful times under the last Democratic adj
mnistraton They shudder when they think Of the
deplorable and horrible conditions which prevailed
under Grover Cleveland and the Democratic admins
hation Thousands upon thousands were on the verge
Of starvation and tramped our highways for work that
was not to be found. Thousands Of families were
without the actual necessities Of life Their condition
was that Of misery and wretchedness. Soup houses
had to be established keep soul and body together
The spirit Of the people was bowed down in deepest
distress and gloom They had no hope for the future
All was abjec misery.
This awful period was followed by the election of
WilliamMcKnley and the restoration ofhe Republican
party to power The era Of prosperity and happiness
dawned upon the nation and has come forth full edged
with the greatest and marvellous prosperity known
in the history Of the world
This prosperity has been enjoyed by all, some to
greater degree than Others Is true but all have had
share of ii. Men to-day building themselves
homes and living in comfort instead Of marching the
highways in search of crust of bread or bowl of
soup. Every working man with family, with only
small per cent Of exceptions is investing his saw
ings in a home Many Of them have purchased prop
crty by making payment down and giving their note
for the residue. Many of them have made two three
four payments, but yet in position to call
ii their own home. Under the present conditions,
however the day is not far distant when their property
will be free from all ncmbrancc and they will be in
dependent American citizens with snug bank account.
What would happen 10 them. if the Democratic
party were to get into power? The answer is simple
and easily arrived at. Tile industrial and commercial
enterprises Of this country would shut down. Labor
