The Progress of Alaska.

MT. John s. McLain, an expert news paper man, who accompanied the spe- ciaI subcommittee of the senate com mittee on territories on their trip to Alaska in the summer of 1903, has just published a book which forms the most modern authority on present day conditions in Alaska and the Klon- dike.
 MT. McLain Is thoroughly impressed with the natural riches and resources of Alaska and he has no doubt as to the future developments of that coun try. But he is also emphatic in ex- pressing his disapprovaI of certain conditions now existing and the need for certain improvements that this country owes to it's dependency
 The first great need for Alaska is transportation. without which the de- velopment Of the natural resources is impossible. Even gold is an expensive commodity to produce. Coal costs ST a ton delivered in Nome and twenty five miles inland it sells for $50 lon. There are some mining districts V ere the transportation charge reached $500 a ton on supplies.
 Mir. McLain lays special emphasis on the injustice of the present condi- tions of the Alaskan Indians and the necessity of relief measures. MT. Mo Lain sa ys:
 q brought away from Alaska no more persistent and recurring impress sion than that of the heavy obliga- tion resting upon the government to do something to ameliorate the con- dition of these wretched people of the north, who have fallen into our hands through no fault of their own, and for whom the government has thus far done so very little.
 "The Alaskan Indian as a rule is hospitable, and suffers from poverty and oftener from the imposition of the white man. to whom he has ever been ready to render kindness. The pros pector, the scientific explorer, and the mail carrier all testify to the gener- osity with which the native has re- ceived into his hut the suffering stranger and given him the shelter and food upon which life depended"
 The need is also emphasized of some measure of political justice to the peo- pie of this immense territory. The distances are so great and the popula- tion so scattered that administration of government under the present sys- tenn Is practically impossible, MT.

The city campaign which closes to- day has been notable for warm dis cussions. but discussion has brought out the fact that there are no sub stantiaI differences among the people. The only question is concerning the relative fitness of the candidates. The public verdict is made up, and 1t is that the interests of the town demand the election of Adams and the whole republican ticket. This verdict will be written tomorrow morning in an over whelming majority. And happily, the campaign will close with no i'll feel ing As soon as the election is over republicans and democrats will forget party lines and unite. as heretofore. for the advancement and prosperity of the town.

All women work; some in their homes, some in church, and some in the whirl of society. And in stores, mills and shops tens of thousands are on the never-ceasing treadmill, earning their daily bread.
 All are subject to the same physical laws; all suffer alike from the same physical distur bance, and the nature of their duties. in many cases, quickly drifts them into the horrors of all kinds of female complaints. ovarian troubles, alteration, falling and dis placements of the womb, leucorrhoea, or perhaps irregularity or suppression of monthly periods" causing back ache, nervousness, irritability and lassitude.
 Women who stand on their feet all day are more susceptible to these troubles than others.
 They especially require an invigorat- ing, sustaining medicine which will strengthen the female organism and enable them to bear easily the fatigues of the day, to sleep well at night, and 60 rise refreshed and cheerful.
 How distressing to see a woman struggling to earn a livelihood or per form her household duties when her back and head are aching, she is so tired she can hardly drag about or stand up, and every movement causes pain, the origin of which is due to some derangement of the female or ganisE1.

A Preposterous Proposition.

MT. T. T. Powers. the so-called democratic candidate for mayor, is only nominauy a resident of Phoenix. His interest in the town amounts to nothing Whether taxes are high or low is of no personal concern to him. Mismana cement of the city's affairs by himself and his associates in the city council could not affect him in juriousIy He could pack his gripsack and take his belongings away, any time. Indeed, he has been away prac- ticalIy all the time for two years. Re ports are in circulation that he has even voted in the last two years as a citizen of Buffalo, New York, where, we understand, he makes his headquar- ters. We have not thought it of any importance to ascertain whether he has voted in Buffalo. for the essential fact is that in any case his residence here is only nnmi- nal; he has no substantial interests here. In addition to all this, by his own showing he has been en- gagged for years in transactions which reflect no credit on Arizona or on him self. Under these circumstances it is preposterous to suppose that such a man can be selected for mayor and business manager of this town.

Fills a .Long Felt Want. ["

The New York Times gives credence does not entirely preserve the unities, is a good illustration. either of the art of story telling. or of the vary ing uses of electricity. as the reader pleases.
 It seams that a practical electri- clan" was much addicted to travelling in remote districts where cold rooms and damp sheets arc the portion of the hotel patron. In order to enjoy nights rest. and defy rheumatism, this ingenious electrician, who was also a dealer in electrical supplies, devised novel foot warmer. The electrician carried in his gripsack an extra 32- candle incandescent lamp. a flexible cord conductor and an ordinary power plug. Whenever he found himself in unheated country hotels where the at tendants placed damp sheets on the beds. he removed the 16-candle power lamp from its socket, inserted the plug and placed his larger lamp between the sheets.
 One of the principal objections to this pretty story is that it is not true. The man who would take the chance of burning a hotel by following the course outlined in the enterprising story fabricated by the narrator, would certainly be a candidate for a lunatic asylum. Setting aside the obvious in congruity of hotels with modern in .candescent electric lights and un- warmed rooms. it is evident that the narrator has mistaken his vocation. He should have been an inventor. Instead of taking the trouble to transport a fragile glass bulb, and incur half a dozen different risks, he could have con nected into his surreptitious circuit resistance box, which might easily have been made entirely safe provid- ing he had utilized his electrical gen jus in the matter of the proper wind ing. Or. # ha did not care to enter the crowded field of invention, he could have carried in his gripsack one of the new fangled electrical "hatirons' and thus have restored an art of bed warming which is now nearly obso- lete.
 However. if the narrator was of the ordinary type of commercial traveller, he would simply kick for a room with a fire and a bed with well laun- dered sheets.

The Distribution of Immigrants.

Commissioner of Immigration Sar- gent is working hard to divert the tide of foreign immigration from the cities to the country, and if he is successful one of the worst phases of the prob lem will be solved. The aliens of what ever nationality-excep the English and Irish-come to our shores ignor- ant of the English language, so their first impulse is to huddle together in colonies in the big cities. This is good neither for them nor for the country, for it encourages crime and retards the process of assimilation into population.
 In many western states. but more particularly in the south, there Is a strong demand for foreign blood The southern planters are anxious to se- cure Italians to work in the cotton fields, many of them regarding this as the only solution of the labor ques- tion there. So it happens that while New York. Philadelphia. Boston and other Atlantic coast cities, as well as Chicago and St. Louis are trying to keep the alien from their borders. the south wants him badly and can't get him.
 The difficulty les largely in the fact that the immigrants know nothing of conditions in the rural districts. They must first be taught where their labor is most in demand and what they may expect in the way of Wages. conditions
