ARE THE PHILIPPINES TO BE

Eastern papers are publishing story' "vouched for by those in the confidence of the president" that it has been de- termiDed to sell the Philippine isla-ds to Japan or to parcel them out among the nations. The appointment of Gen. Luke E. Wright, democrat, to be am bassador to Japan is explained to be for the purpose of negotiating the sale. His long association with the islanns, it is said, qualities him ParticuarIy to speak of their value to Japan.
 In substautiation of this story it is pointed out that recently Senator Crane, of Massachusetts, who is close Mir Roosevelt. introduced 8 reso.u- ton iu the Senate authorizing the pres ident to negotiate with foreign powers 10 the end that the integrity ot the PbflfDpines will be preserved in case ,be Tinted States relinquishes them, and that Representative Longworth, Of Obfo. soon to be the presidents son.in- law, made 8 speech On the Philippine rariT bill in which he asserted with startling iraukness that the Filipinos are 2 shiftless, worthless lot, and that the sooner the United States is rid of them the better it will be for all con cerued.
 These things were given somethirg moro than passing attention when they took place, as indicating a loOsening Of the keep the Philippines at any cost artituds of the dominant forces in the republic, but in view of the announce ment, coming with credentials said to be irst-class. that plans are already un' der way for disposing of the islands they loom up in the back ground like towering mountains iu a landscape painting.
 I, is said, further, that whether any thing more nearly official shall ever come of this scheme depends upon the manner of the acceptance of the unofh' cfal announcement by the people

In an editorial of appreciation or the Juneau Daily Dispatch the Sitka Ca blegram gives that paper credit for be- ing the first newspaper in Alaska to take a telegraphic Tress report. The Juneau Dispatch is an enterPrising paper. but it is not entitled to the credit tbat is given it by the sitka publica- ton. skagway papers took dispatches before the c,ble was completed to Ju- neat. The Daily News. of this city took a regular service for several weels before it's suspension, and the CaiIv Alaskan had arrangements to get all big news by wire. When the cable was completed to Juneau the Daily Alas kan, first in connection with the Rec5rd Miner and afterward with the Dispatch, took the dispatches from the beginning. This paper has never ceased taking a news service since that time. Several times while the cable was Lot working it was the only paper in the district Icing so served.

REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION

Senator Healy took the floor again
and announced that Bernard Murphy
standpat member of the committee
would ask with him that the report
be unanimously adopted. Mr.. Murphy
seconded the motion and the chair
put it as substitute and 1t was seY-
eral minutes before the chair could
be heard, when he announced that in
the judgment of the chair, the motion
was carried, and he announced that
the report was adopted
The report of the committee on per.
manent organization, recommending
that George w. Clarke of Abel be
made permanent chairman and that
the temporary secretaries be made
permanent, was adopted and Speaker
Clarke was escorted to the stage. In
assuming the chair he said:
Gentlemen of the Convention: |

of this convention. shall not at
tempt to address this convention this
afternoon. Our duty before us is plain
and we ought to proceed to the bust
ness of this convention at once and

with which we are capable of doing
this work. | beg of you, gentlemen Of
the convention, that you will preserve
order. We cannot conduct the bust

The committee on resolutions not

conferred upon our party by him and
other state officials who have given
exceptional service to our people. In
all the departments of state the high
est degree Of efficiency has prevailed
and fidelity to public service is every
where manifest. 1t is gratifying to
know that with a tax levy for state
purposes by no means burdensome
and with generous support to all pub
lie obligations the state is free from
debt and with ample funds for cur
rent needs.
The republican party has always
stood for the enlarged participation
of the individual voter in public at
fairs. To this end we pledge our
selves and our party in this state TO
the enactment of wise and judicious
primary election law which will pro-
vide for the nomination by direct
vote of all candidates for office to be
filed at the general election and an
expression of party preference in the
selection of United States senators.
1--WE are unalterably opposed to the
domination of corporate influences in
public affairs. We favor the enact
ment of stringent statutes, to purge
the politics of our state and nation
from the corrupting influences of cor
porate power. And we pledge our
selves to the enactment of such laws
as will render it Improbable and un-
popular for corporations to engage In
politics or in any way contribute to
political campaigns.
The adjustment of the free pass
on railways is a most important step
in curbing the influence of corpora
lions in political affairs, and we COM
mend the republican legislature which
has enacted law to this end.
I'VE are uncompromisingly in favor
of the American system of protection
Duties on foreign imports should not
be levied for revenue only, but should
be so adjusted as to promote our do
nestle interests, enlarge our foreign
markets, secure remunerative prices
for the products of our factories and
farms and maintain a superior scale OF
wages and standard of living for
American labor. Wise and unsellsh
tariff laws maintained in the interest
of the general welfare, equally op:
posed to foreign control and domestic
monopoly, are essential to our com.

PHILOSOPHICAL POINTS.

The fatted calf never loves the
prodigal son.
Truth never runs around asking
people to believe it.
Alas, that fools are prosperous. Is
it their penalty or reward?
How many of us in listening to the
tomtoms forget the violins?
To think an original thought is to
take a step nearer the divine.
People who need to be continually
propped up are not worth the prop. r
When men become suddenly good
they should be executed Immediately.
1t is easier for some people to be-
lieve the impossible than the pos
sible.
Before it was thrown down, this
Golden Calf had son, and it is still
mooing around the world.
1t is self-evident that to success
fully fathom the motives of men one
must be man himself. To an idiot
to a lunatic-all men are either
idiots or lunatics.

PHYSICIAN SAYS
Children Thrive on Grape Nuts and
Cream.

A Mass. physician has found a cure
for constipation in children = citing
fifteen cases-by feeding them Grape
Nuts.
Some time ago." he writes, II be-
came interested in your food, Grape
Nuts, as cure for constipation in
children. Having tried it in my own
family, have advised it in fifteen
cases in which all suffered with con-
stipation more or less severe. The re-
suit has been absolute relief in ALL
Il write this that other children
may be benefited"
How much better it is thus to bring
about a healthy action in the bowels
of growing children by natural means,
than to feed them with improper food,
requiring some kind of cathartic at
intervals to overcome constipation.
Grape-Nuts gives energy to the en-
tire nervous system including the
nerves that cause the natural con-
traction and relaxation of the bowel
muscles, that propel the food mass
along.
IL Is pTeulSeSIeu also, ana the blood
easily absorbs the food as it goes
through the body, storing up vitality
and force for the functions of all the
organs.
Children especially, should get the
right start as to habits of living.
They should grow into bright, strong.
cheerful men and women. Grape-Nuts
solve the question of the start: a
wholesome appetite will do the rest.
Children's teeth are benefited by
chewing Grape-Nuts, also. Your dent
LIST will tell you that certain amount
of exercise in chewing firm food, is
necessary to grow strong, beautiful
teeth.
Teeth need exercise just the same
as muscles, If they are to grow
strong and firm as nature intended.
Grape-Nuts gives the exercise and
also gives material from which good
teeth are made
