THAT FAKE ODDS AGAINST WICKER
 SHAM" STORY

OIcourse those stories sent out from Nome , Q the betting going ou there are simply part of the desperate
 but queer campaign being conducted by the Corsonites. A statement that large odds had been offered against Wicker sham is calculated, of course, and iu- teuded, to create the impression that Corsou is iu the race, which everybody knows he is not. Sim lar telegrams were received in this city-not address. ed to the Alaskan, mind you, but to citizens who might be expected to re- ceiye such from the betting fra,urnity. The purpose, of course, was not to have the offers of cdas accepted but to secure publication Of the tales as being true.

INSTRUCTION FOR ILLEGAL VOTING

instructions to Voters" Is the name of little phamphlet being sent broad cast by the republican territorial com mittee, and signed by the chairman, F. F.. Youugs. Following is a paragraph of those instructions:
 Itmay be tha. there will be a few localities where it willbe impossible for the voters to get to any established voting precinct. To that event. we suggest in case where it is absolutely impossible for voters to get to a voting place, that on the day of election in all such places, August II, 1908, they select judges of election by majority votes of those precincts, have them sworn as above prescribed, and have them pro ceed iu all other respects as above men tioned. To this event the judges so selected should certify what was done by the voters, and the reason why the ballots were received at that particular place, aud defining the lin it's of tho place from which the voters cast their ballots, stating the reason why such poll log place was opened and the impOssi- blity of reaching any regular estab- llshed polling place, and these certif- cates should bo enclosed in the envelope at the close of election, which is direct ed the governor Of Alaska SC Juneau. ["
 Ii the regular" republican party does D know the law governing cleo tions iu this district, who is to know it? Who is to respect it? That it would be unlawful to receive such votes MT. Youngs and the committee we'll knows. Voters who live so distant from . poll ing place live also distant from nO- tary public where they might make affidavit as suggested. The casting Of such votes is directly contrary to law to suggest it is to suggest unlawful voting and 1t is to be expected that those NOT ENTITLED TO VOTE at all would take advantage of the sugges- tiou. And this from the regular" re- publican committee. /

SOLITUDE

(Childe Harold, CautOil To sit on rocks, to muse o'or flood and fell, To slowly trace the forests shady scene, Where things that own not mau's dominion dwell, And mortal foot hath ne'er or rarely been To climb the trackleSs mountain all unseen, With the wild flock that never needs fold; Alone O'or stocps and tOamiOg falls to lean; . This Is not solitude; 'tIs but to hold Converse with Nature's charms, and view her stores unrOlled.

The notices being sent out this week by Receiver Fred Herrera of the defunct International Bank in Nogales, to the effect that "a divid- end of six and onehalf per cent has been, by the court, ordered 10 be paid, by the receiver, to all whose claims have heretofore been filed and allowed" will be cheer ing news to those who had money in the bank when it was footed. and the receiver is a very happy man as result.
 More than $9OOO.OO, gold will be paid by the receiver to those whose claims have been presented and allowed, which means a goodly sum of cash distributed in this section to persons who had very little hopes of receiving q cent.
 Receiver Herrera hopes to later pay another dividend before all returns are in.
 "Every little bit helps" and we congratulate Major Herrera upon the manner in which he is ''mak- ing good," as we'll as those who are receiving the dividend.
 Mr. Herrera has sent notices, oy mail, to all creditors whose ad- dresses are known to him, and for further informations requests in terested parties to apply or write to him.

ENDING OF YAoUI TROUBLES.
Mexican Consul Garcia Talks to Bis
 bee Review.


 On recent visit of Mexican Consul Toribio Garcia, to Bisbee, that gentleman in an interview with the Bisbee Review, stated that his government is highly pleased at the manner in which the long series of encounters with the troublesome Yaquis had been brought to close. The effect of removing the danger of attack by these warlike Indians has already begun to manifest itself, the consul stated.
 The country which has been in tested by the Yaquis is well known to be one of the richest mineral sections of the Mexican territory, and one whose riches have only been partially explored, according to Consul Garcia, and is one which not only the mining men of Mex ico, but those of the United States been eager to investigate. Now that the trouble is passed the con- sul expects to see a wonderful de- velopment of this region, in which it has often been reported, mines of untold wealth exist.
 In connection with the visit of the consul at Bisbee it is interest ing to note that the two Yaquis who have recently been taken to Mexico through extradition pa pers, have been captured at fortunate time, so far as their fate is con cerned. The two prisoners refer red to, one named Luciano and the other Benito Matus, have been wanted by the Mexican govern ment for a long time because of their alleged connection with many of the 1a aqui raiding expeditions.
 They are held by the Mexican government to have been directly implicated in the murder of one American and eleven Mexicans, which occurred some time ago at the Rancho de Cabrero, in the Magdalena district. They fled to the American side of the line, and were only recently taken to Mex ico from Nogales.
 The prisoners are now in Her mosillo, where they will be tried for murder Owing to the fact that a general amnesty has been grant ed to the YaqUis who have been engaged in the long guerilla war

CHANCES FOR THE REFoRMERs.
Old Printer Points Out Where Real
Good Might BE Done.

did you ever think" said an old
printer, that we really notice only
the upper halves of the letters? Tho
lower halves are in many cases only
the stems, the remainders Of orna-
mental flourishes which have been
gradually reduced in size and length
and are now meaningless. Take, for
instance, the heading of paper. Cover
up with blank sheet the lower half
Of the letters, and even IL you did
not know what they were you would
have no difficulty in reading the words.
Now, reverse the process and cover
the upper half and If you did not know
the words II would be impossible to
make out the letters. This fact 10
even more plainly seen in the case Of
the Roman letters used for headlines.
An L might be mistaken for an l, but
nearly all the other letters are so
plainly indicated by the shape of tho
upper half that the lines may be read
without difficulty. In their zeal for
reform and economy the advocates Of
the new spelling might make this idea
useful and instead of abolishing a few
letters in few words they might cut
OF the lower quarter or half of every
letter and SO save Is per cent."-St
Louis Globe-Democrat.
