APPROACH BOTH PARTIES
Have Confidence of Business
and Professional Men, Who
viii Continue Fight for the
Betterment OF Paducah City
Schools
ALL ARE INVITED TO JOIN

eliminating a feeling that quietly
has been taking form for the last
several months. a meeting of cti-
zens interested in a non-partisan
school system will be held in the
Eagles hall, Sixth street and Broad
way tonight at 1880 o'clock In this
meeting, composed unfortunately
of citizens of all political faiths, an
organization will be effected to work
for non-partisan school board. The
object of the Non-Partisan School
league will be to lift the public
school system out of the realm of
party conflicts, and place It on
plane, where only a love for the best
interests of the schools would be the
motive for getting on the board, and
where the political parties will not
consider it as a public plum to DO
struggled for every year.
It is understood that the organi-
cation will endeavor to oct fusion
ticket. Both the Republican and
Democratic city executive commit
tees win be appealed to to sever the
schools from the other elective Off
ces, and to allow the same ticket for
school trustees to go under each
emblem. The new organization will
make out non-partisan ticket, which
1t will submit to both committees, so
that men elected on that ticket may
be elected with the understanding
that no questions arising in the
board will be settled from the view
point of any party.
At the meeting tonight, declara-
ton of principles will be made and
the membership will not be limited
in any way. Any citizen who would
like to sec the school system placed
entirely out of politics mas the quail
fcation for membership. Later 1t is
expected to appeal to the legislature
to have the charter repealed in those
sections which call for an election
every year, and to have the term for
four years with elections every two
years.
Many business, professional and
working men have expressed approx
al of a Partisan School league
and If the organization is effected, It
is probable that it will be incorpo-
rated. The citizens behind the move
ment will not be discouraged, II
nothing definite Is accomplished In
the fall campaign, but will continue
to work for a non-partisan school
system. Republicans and Democrats
alike have signified their intention
of attending the meeting tonight.

CHICKENS"
 ARE ALL CONE

There has not been ptarmigan or 'chicken" of any kind brought into Rampant this winter. If one has been seen on any of the nearby creeks or hillsides enquiry fails TO disclose the fact.
 Half dozen years ago birds were plentiful almost everywhere. Along the valleys and hillsides of Big Minook and it's tributaries ptarmigan tlocked in hundreds and it was no uncommon thing to see them by the dozen right amongst the cabins in the outskirts of town. Grouse, too, of sveral species, including the white-meated kinds so pleasing to persons of discriminating appetite were especially thick along the Yukon Flats and were not scarce any where.
 They are all gone. Hunters have not shot them all, and it is not plain what has become of them. They disappeared gradually-not in a season, as if they had migrated to other parts. Even last winter few ptarmigan were seen just east of town and the summer before a willow grouse matched her brood near the pond this side of Minook.
 Some say extensive fires have de- stroved great numbers and others that bad weather, like rain and snow followed by hard frost, in the nesting season has destroyed the egg and the young. In cold weather ptarmigan sleep in the snow, burying themselves by flying against it with great force. It is said sometimes the snow becomes crusted and many hirds kill themselves in this way.
 Hawks and owls, martens, foxes and other animals prey upon the birds. If the large number of lynxes that have infested the country for two or three years have also joined in the onslaught, and if they have followed the birds to the breeding grounds in their forays, that will account for the disappearance of ptarmigan and grouse, which, when their eggs or young are threatened, give the lie to that foolish old saw about self preservation being the first law of na- turc and become easy victims of what ever ioc presents itself.

FormaIdehyde is Harmful
 Says the Highest Authority

Formaldehyde is generally believed to be extensively employed as preserva tive of numerous food products intended for consumption in Alaska. The claim being sometimes heard that no injurious effects follow it's use for this purpose, the following quotation is given from an article by Bernard H. Smith, of the bureau of chemistry, United States de- partment of agriculture, especially pre- pared for guidance in the use of formal dehyde as disinfectant, deoderizer and fungicide:
 Because of it's marked antiseptic properties formaldehyde is an efficient preservative. During the last few years it has largely displaced alcohol as the preservative of anatomical specimens, dilute solution being much used for this purpose in medicine and surgery, in pharmaceutical preparations, and in microscopy. Sixteen years ago, when the antiseptic properties of formalde- hyde were first discovered, tho com pound was practically unknown except to the chemists; now it's uses have so multiplied that they have extended to food products, especially milk and cream. Under various trade names it has been put upon ths market as harmless preservative of food prod ucts, but the highest authorities con- slider it harmful in any quantity, and
 its use in food products is prohibited in a large number of states"
 An important investigation has been made by the department of agriculture to determine the effect of conservatives and coloring matters, when added to foods, upon the health of the consumer. To this end class of young men was secured to whom were fed foods con- taining these articles. In so far as the investigations have been completed, it has been found without exception that the addition of the ordinary preserva- tives to foods is prejudicial to health. The same is true, also, of at least one of the coloring matters commonly em- ployed, namely sulPhate of copper

BIC GOLD FIND
 BY CANUCKS
Saskatchewan Believed to Possess Great Riches in Ancient
 River Bed.

A good many people in this locality will remember J. T. Kennedy, bright young man who was connected with the road gang last summer and who left for his former home in Saskatchewan prov ince, Canada, just before the close of navigation.
 In a letter to the Valley News Mr. Kennedy says times are very lively in that province, and he was agreeably surprised to find that property of his had doubled in value during his ab- sence in Alaska.
 He also tells of gold strike east of the Rockies which has attracted wide spread interest
 The scene of the strike is at Birling, a tank station on the Canada Northern railway, forty-two miles west of North Battleford. The strike is in an ancient river bed and the gold is found in soft shale rock which can be placer mined ; but it may be that it will pay best to mill the rock, for it assays $40 q ton. The pay averages about 9 feet below the surface, and the paystreak is known to be 10 miles long and at places a mile wide. Newspaper clippings indicate that the find is so important that many prospectors will flock to the country some claiming the number will reach 10000 within ten months.
 The gold is surrounded by country fast being taken up in homesteads, but near the gold the ground was passed up because it was poor. An old prospector named Hughes made the find months ago. He kept mum, and hoped to get possession of a large part of the ground. Finally he got drunk and gave the snap away.
 Mir. Kennedy writes that he knows of four or five miles of ancient river chan nel 400 miles north of Prince William Sask., which he proposes to test for gold.
 The bars of the Saskatchewan river have been rocker worked and yielded a little gold, and Mir. Kennedy writes that a dredge is working at Prince William. In former times, however, the country east of the Rockies was not looked upon with favor by many prospectors.
