A Remarkable Plea
 For the Stomach
If Your Stomach Is Lacking In Digest i've Power, Why Not Let the Stom- ach Do Its Work-Especially When 1t Costs Nothing
 To Try?

1 Not with drugs, but with a reinforce
 ment of digestive agents, such as are
 naturally at work in the stomach? Scien. l tifc analysis shows that digestion re- l quires pepsn, nitrogenous ferments and
 the secretion of hydrochoric acid When l your food fails to digest it is proof posi- 1 tive that some of these agents are lacking 1 in your digestive apparatus.
 l Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets contain noth- l ing but these natural clements necessary | to digestion and when placed at work in the weak stomach and small intestines supply what these organs need. They stimulate the gastric glands and gradually bring the digestive organs back to their normal condition.
 Stuarts Digestive Tablets have been subjected to critical chemical tests at home and abroad and are found to con
 tain nothing but natural digestives.

Rockefeller Explains.

New York, October 1.-The attention Of John D. Rockefeller was called to the following passage in the interview of the Cleveland Plain Dealer:
 The French people hate us and they will crush us if they can. They want our money, they want the patronage of our tourists but they hate us. They never let slip an opportunity to take advantage of our mistakes. This is struggle for supremacy. We must win or they will. and there will be no quarter for us if they win
 After reading it over he said:
 There is certainly mistake with ref erence to the above statement attributed to me have no recollection of it. can not of course recall the exact words of d running conversation during a game of golf, but if the word hate was used it was rather in the sense of a natural jealousy, not on the part of France alone but of any European competitors of the United States, on account of our great industrial success in recent years. I cheer ish none but the most kindly feelings to- ward France and have no reason to do so, especially for all the courteous at tentons shown me by the French people during my recent visit there from the time of my arrival until my departure, and my expressions to them were only of the most friendly character on the part of the United States toward France for the kindness shown us during the past, especially In our early history"

PUT PREMIUM ON WORK

today prints an interview with John b. Rockefeller in which the latter comments on the demand for government regulation of so-called private industries, and makes a strong plea for national development. MT. Rockefeller is quoted in part as fol- lows:
 If we limit opportunity we will have to put the brakes on our national de- yelopment Will the individual strive for success if he knows the hard won prize is to be snatched from his finger at the last by his government? We are still too young nation to begin tearing down. We must build up, build up, build up, for years to come, The very children in

RELIEVE NATIONAL BANKS.
Enlargement of Note Issue Privilege Is Recommended by Commission.

New York, October 4.-Either a central bank of issue to be established and con trolled by the government or simple measure enlarging the present issue note privilege of national banks in such a man ner that their right of issue shall not vary with the ownership of United States bonds, are the methods favored by the special currency committee appointed by the New York chamber of commerce last March to inquire into the condition of the currency and suggest desirable changes. The report was submitted at a meeting of the chamber of commerce today.

has resolved not to accept the office. Cabinet ministers have declared that they will previously resign. Under these con. ditions it is impossible that congress will meet for the lack of a proper person to convoke same to designate a new presi- dent. The consequences will be absence of legal power and therefore the pre- vailing state of anarchy will continue unless the government of the United States will adopt the measures necessary to avoid this danger.
 "sTEINHARDT, Consul General.'
 Causes Surprise In Cuba.
 Havana, October 4.-That ex-President Palma early in September asked for American assistance in the protection of foreign lives and property is not consid cred surprising here, in view of his sun,s sequent request upon MT. Sleeper, tX American charge, and Commander CoN well of the cruiser Denver. But that hex suggested calling Congress to ask fori American intervention as early as Sep tember 8 is considered surprising, and that on September 13 he officially asked for intervention and had then irrevocably declared to resign. causes amazement.
 The American correspondence between the state department and Consul General Steinhardt in connection with Cuban intervention, reveals the truth of the runors current here at the time, and which were persstently denied ait rhe pal ace, ex-President Palma declining even to speak of it. Had this correspondence not been published, the impression would have continued here that Senor Palma yielded to intervention only after Messrs. Taft and Bacon had found it impossible to reconcile the Cuban differences.

MAKE WAR ON THEsTUMPs

The City Council of Douglas has in- augurated war on the stumps, that now disigure our street and do so much to make our city ugly. In this effort all lot owners should take part and, without further barley, begin to clear out the stumps.
 The stumps in Douglas always bring so mind the remark made by lady who visited town in Washington, that was similarly afflicted. She said .tbat the sight of the burned and blackened stumps in that town "always made her think of he'll with the fire gone out"
 Now if the good people of Douglas will let their pride have sway, each man will do his part. Our city is naturally beautifully situated on ground that is easily drained by a gradual slope toward the Channel Nothing will do so much toward beautifying the city as the removal oi the stumps. Your neighbors are watching you. Don't let them say thai you held back.

PUBLISHED EVERY WEDNESDAY

In the disorganized condition of af- fairs generally in Alaska the peo pie have been made to suffer in many ways. Under government supervision the school system was farce. Under municipal control wonderful improve ment has been made. Large, we'll ven- tilated and comfortable are the school houses that have been built. Teachers have been employed at salaries that were most liberal. In many cases the teachers have shown their appreciation of the wage paid, and have exhibited splendid qualifications. But in many cases both the qualifications and the appreciation were woefully lacking. The school boards have been imposed upon. The imposition was made pos sible because there was no provision for the examination of teachers apply ing for schools. A certificate, obtained in some iuexplicable manner, and a letter from an indulgent pastor have been the only guides to school boards. Others, unable to secure the certificate, have borrowed one for the occasion, taking the name with it. Men are elected to positions on school boards who are fully competent to manage the business end of the school, but are not Drenared to conduct examinations. Each division of Alaska should have a board, prepared and qualified to hold examinations of those desiring to teach
 and to issue certificates. No teacher should be employed who has not an Alaska certificate. Then would the school boards, the parents and the pu- pills in our schools be protected from the incompetent impostors who pose as educators, but are manifestly lack ing in the necessary qualifications.
