ROOSEVELT AND ALASKA

Word comes from the south that President Roosevelt Is very greatly dis turbed because of the never ending procession of scandals in connection wIth government In Alaska and that he Is seriously considering the removal Of every official iu the district whose name has been connected in any way with the various northern controversies, old and new, the places to be filled by his personal friends from the east.
 lis not strange that the preside nt should be disturbed because of the con tsntions among federal officials iu Alas kH and between the officials and the citizens, but the proposed remedy will not cure the condition. The trouble in Alaska Is the result of the application of wrong principles of government, and not because of Ihe character of the men who have been sent here to administer the law. AS things now are the presi- dent may select whom he will as his representatives in this district and there will be contentious and scandals. It would be the same it he should come here himself. The administration of law in AlA,ka will be satisfactory to no one until the people shall be permitted to exercise their right to govern them selves.
 Any person as familiar with the American people and their character istlcs as is President Roosevelt should see at a glance what Is wrong in this district The president has had vest ern experience. As a Dakota ranch man he helped a sparsely settled com munity to govern itself His character was largely developed when he was as sisting in the evolution of ioneer set dement's into a sovereign state. He fully appreciates the quality of those men and women out west who, unham- pered, have worked out their own sal vation under conditions just as complex as those which obtain in Alaska. He realizes that 1t is the experience of go, lnR 1t alone that has made them the sturdy, self reliant and resourceful Peo' pie they arc. He Fnows how jealous they have been of their right to man age their own affairs and how quickly they would have resented government In which they had no hand. Of all men he should be best prepared of those in public life to handle the Alaskan queS' ton.
 If the president will reflect for a quarter of an hour upon the history of the growth and development of the American people and the American na- tion he will realize that the trouble with things in Alaska is the direct re- suit of an attempt to govern Americans without their consent, and 10 tax them without giving them representation.
 Let selt-government be established in Alaska, give the people, those fsmil- lar with the matters at issue, the oppor- tunlty to settle their differences, and there WIll be nothing in the north to aI-a,.-L D-a.gao.s Dnnaaralf

Frocks for the Small Children

trimmings are of blue the shade of the
flowers in the goods. Hair ribbon and
stockings should match trimming.
Speaking of styles for small boys,
Buster Brown affairs still continue;
whether the popularity is owing to the
name or to the designs themselves it
would be hard toSjay. Both boys and
girls are less fussily dressed than for
merly, and everything chosen for them
seems to be principally with reference
to whether or not it will wash. A very
sensible turn of fashions wheel.
White wool stockings for the small
ones are much in Vogue, and it is need
less to say these articles have to be
tubbed very frequently. But they are
pretty, go we'll with dresses and BUS
ter Browns" of any and all colors.
The stores are showing now some ex-
cellent additions to the child's wardrobe;
bibs that have sleeves attached, or rath-
er we may say they are half-attached
being sewn in only part way around
There are to be had over-alls of divers
sorts, very sensible dark gingham slip

do not, seem really affected by the move
ment toward simple life.

Scott City, Kan, March 2Oth-(Special)
Almost every newspaper tells of cures
of the most deadly of kidney diseases by
Dodd's Kidney Pills. Bright's Disease,
Diabetes, Rheumatism and Bladder trou-
bles, in fact any disease that is of the
kidneys or caused by disordered kidneys
is readily cured by this great American
remedy.
But it is in curing the earlier stages OF
kidney complaint that Dodd's Kidney
Pills are doing their greatest work. They
are preventing thousands of cases Of
Brights disease and other deadly almenta
by curing Kidney Disease when it first
shows its presence in the body.
Speaking of this work Ex-Sheriff James
Scott of Scott County, says:
Il have used eight boxes of Dodd's Kid
ney Pills and must say that they are just
the thing for Kidney Disease. We have
tried many kidney medicines but Dodd't
Kidney Pills are the best of all"

be cleaned nearly so often. The sleeves
have much fulness at the shoulder, and
at the wrist there is a trimming Of
strapped stitching.
The other blouse is intended for dres-
sier wear. 1t is made of white material
wool, silk, or soft satin--and the one
from which the cut was copied had spots
of turquoise-blue. 1t was piped with tur-
quoise-blue silk, and the buttons used on
the yoke and sleeves were covered with
the same silk. Notice the boX-pleated
sleeves, and the shape of the yoke
Either of these blouses may be made OF
soft challis and have for trimming a
pretty lace collar.
Deep yokes and chemisettes are very
pretty for misses, anil at present are
very popular. Crepe de chine is suit
able material for the young girls best
frock. A pretty design has soft folds
coming from the shoulders and crossing
in front. A deep girdle of soft ribbon,
very long in front, is worn with this, and
fastens at one side with knot and long
ends hanging down. A chemisette of
cream net, hand-tucked, is worn with
this waist, and a little trimming of
cream insertion may be used on the
waist, though we prefer it without The
stock should be transparent, stiffened
with light feather-bone. And, by the
way, we might as we'll mention here
that stocks for women and girls are to
be very largely on this order the coming
season; a very comfortable as well as
pretty fashion.
With such a frock might be worn this
summer either a Charlotte Corday hat
of light blue silk, or a soft straw
trimmed with only wreath of flowers;
pink would be very effective with the
light blue, pastel combinations are es-
pecially pretty for the youthful face.
Washable Japanese silks, which come
in variety of attractive colors and de-
signs, are popular for evening frocks fol

SEEDING IN PROGRESS
IN WESTERN CANADA.
Mild Weather Is Bringing Thousands
of Settlers.

The splendid yields of wheat, oats
and barley produced by the farmers
of Western Canada and the excellent
prices received for the same, have
been the means OF giving an increased
interest throughout the United States.
AS a result the inquiries made of the
Agents of the Canadian Government
have nearly doubled over those Of the
same period last year. Railroad COM
panies are putting on increased carry
ing capacity to meet the demand made
upon them for carrying passengers
and freight. Everything points to
most prosperous year. There is room
for hundreds of thousands additional
settlers, much new land having been
opened up for settlement this year.
1t is quite interesting to look
through the letters received from the
Americans who have settled in West
ern Canada during the past few years,
and considering the large number 1t
is surprising how few there are who
have not succeeded. An extract from
a letter written by Mr.. Geo. NJ Girls
wold, Of Red Deer, Alta, formerly of
Grever, Montana, written on the I'd
of January, Is as follows:

An eminent physician says that
"Women are not truthful; they will lie
to their physician" This statement
should be qualified; women do tell the
truth, but not the whole truth, to a
male physician, but this is only in re-
gard to those painful and troublesome
disorders peculiar to their sex.
There can be no more terrible ordeal
to a delicate, sensitive, refined woman
than to be obliged to answer certain
questions when those questions are
asked, even by her family physician.
This is especially the case with un,
married women.
Is it any wonder, then, that women
continue to suffer and that doctors
fail to cure female diseases when they
cannot get the proper information tc
work on?
This is the reason why thousands anc
thousands of women are now CORE,
spending with Mrs. Pinkham. To hel
they can and do give every symptom
so that she really knows more about
the true condition of her patients
through her correspondence with then
than the physician who personally
questions them.
Ifyou suffer from any form Of trouble
peculiar to women, write at once tc
Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass, and She
will advise you free of charge.
The fact that this great boon, which
is extended freely to women by Mrs
Pinkham, is appreciated, the thou
sands of letters received by her prove
Many such grateful letters as the fol
lowing are constantly pouring in.
