A MANS WORK.

We have spoken of this thing be- fore but there is no harm in men tioning it again to the end that the spirit of gratitude may be kept afIame in this community. We re fer to the contribution of George H. Maxwell to the present and future prosperity of this valley.
 No community was ever able to trace any good fortune it may have enjoyed, more directly to a single in dividual than this one can connect the building of the Roosevelt dam with the tireIess efforts of MT Max well.
 Of course it cannot be said that MT. Maxwell, single handed and alone, gave us the reclamation act That came directly from congress and the president
 That would have come sometime if MT Maxwell had never lived. but no one who knows anything of the difficulties which have been encoun- tered and the obstacles which have had to be removed, believes that there would be any reclamation act today, but for him.
 As the act was at length agreed upon it would have been of no ad- vantage at all to us of this valley but for Mir. Maxwell, who secured a provision making it applicable to such conditions as exist here.
 We know AIr. Maxwell does not care to be regarded as a public ben efactor, but We can not refrain from going over this subject again, that those who have come into the val ley comparatively recently may know how it came about that the govern ment is building the Roosevelt dam

THE CARNIVAL SALE
 IS A BIG SUCCESS
Dsvidson's Cash Store Had a Record Day Yesterday Notwithstanding the Bad Weather.

How is the carnival sale" was the query put to c. H. Davidson last even ing after the first day of what is a new departure not only for him but for hardware dealers generally in these parts Tt is a grand success" was his reply. Continuing the conversation, MT. Davidson said he had demonstrated more than ever to his own satisfaction, the value of advertising, and he has all ways been believer in it.
 Yesterdays sale was not all that it might have been, nor all that it would have been under usual conditions, and certainly not all that it will be Monday and following days, for it is not to be a brief one-day sale, but a carnival in truth. Yesterday was a rainy and for bidding day and last evening the usual Saturday night crowds on the street were divided by many attractions, even those people who had no fear of rain. Nevertheless the Davidson Cash store had a good trade all day and all even ing. sufficient to satisfy MT Davidson with his advertising He said that or dinarily on a day like yesterday his trade would fall off perhaps -fifths but yesterday his big force of extra salespeople had about all they wanted to do even under these conditions.
 Beside his ad in The Republican, MT. Davidson had made some very strik- ing signs for display in his doorway and no one who chanced to pass that way could fail to note them. Altogeth- CT he was q very pleased man last night, being fully convinced that page ads and special sales, do not appeal solely to the women who dress in silks and satins, but that the users of hard ware and the practical household and farm utilities, whether man or woman, all have a desire to buy things cheap when they can

Big Copper Strike

Another big copper strike is re ported at Fidalgo bay, on which is considered to be an extension of the ledge which passes through the claims of the Fidalgo-AlaSka-Copper Com panv. better known as the Schlosser discovery, after the original locator. Last fall, two prospectors well known on the sound, Gleason and Mason, found favorable surface showing, and during the past winter have been engaged in the development of the prospect. A tunnel was driven to crosscut the ledge at given depth, and few days since, when fifty feet in, the owners were rewarded by en- countering a ledge seven feet in width of shipping ore-a high grade of chal- copyrite. The property lies southeast of the Schlosser ground and is known as the Manhatten group.
 c. w. Harrington, the mining engi- neer who has charge of the operations of the Fidalgo-Alaska-Copper Con- pany, came up from there Wednesday. He is highly encouraged with the way this big copper ledge is showing up. Shipping ore, much higher in value than the average sound product, has been found wherever tunnels or drifts have been run in search of it. The The ledge shows up strong as to size, with every indication of permanence. Valdez Prospector.

Strike on the Mackenzie

The Canadian Northwest mounted police expedition which left here in December for Fort MacPherson, at the mouth of the Mackenzie river on the Arctic coast, 800 miles north of Dawson, returned after ffty-fve days of continuous snowshoeing and break ing of the trail. Five men and twenty dogs were in the expedition. Three of the dogs were worked to death dur ing the trip.
 The most important news brought in by the expedition is that a rich gold strike has been made sixty miles east of Herschel island.
 The news was brought to Herschel by the crew of the whaler Duchess of Bedford, which was wrecked there last spring. No details of the strike was given. It has long been under stood that gold existed near the mouth of the Mackenzie river and old pros pectors have been expecting a strike in that locality, in the hopes of anoth- CT Klondike.-EX.

day the husband went and inquired

response of the nurse. On the third

A Pioneer Advertiser.

The recent death of George p. Row
ell of New York city, one of the pio-

and in his day the most energetic and
successful one, will be profoundly re-
GREETED by Journalists and advertising
men, Mr.. Rowell was one of the earli-
est users of printers ink as a general
agent. for the purpose of selling goods.
In fact. he is to be credited i'll large
measure for initiating the system
which has made the modern newspaper
a cosmopolitan medium of advertising
Mr.. Rowell began to use newspapers
when they were operated by individ-
uals for the purpose of exploiting indl-
vidual or party views. Papers then
depended wholly upon subscriptions
for their support as the advertising
trade then consisted of little else than
the printing of a certain business or
professional mans name for a certain
monthly stipend, as a contribution to
the papers welfare and to show that
the advertiser was in sympathy with
or tolerant of the views heralded by
the paper.
When Mr.. Rowen began to place
advertising in an impersonal way on
the basis of the circulation, a new
| light dawned upon the newspaper
world Then began the rush for more
and more subscribers in order to at
tract increased advertising. 1t was
natural that Mr.. Rowell should be the
| founder of Printers Ink, a journal for
advertisers. which won world wide
fame and still maintains high place
| in its field. He also founded the
American Newspaper Directory. book
of newspaper ratings which is an au
| thority.
| 1t may be said that he reached that
| place of prominence and esteem IN
his craft which signifies the true
measure of success.
