Disposes of Jewelry Store in Dover,
Long Republican Headquarters.
The jewelry store of the ]. Frank
Alice Company, widely known
throughout Delaware because it has
been the headquarters of Kent and
Sussex Republicans, in the States
strenuous political times for several
years, was sold by Senator Alice
Saturday. The new owner is Alex
ander G. Wolcott, a young Dover
jsweler and opponent of Mr.. Alice,
who is the youngest son of the late
Democratic chancellor, James l..
Wolcott. The business, therefore
not only changes hands, but the
charmed place of political confer
ences now passes from Republican to
Democratic hands. The price is not
announced by either the retiring or
the incoming owner. Mr. Alice who
is said to have cleaned up nearly
$100, 600 on his Bay State gas stocks
is now devoting all his time to the
Lawson-Bay State-National stock
enterprises, and to his new manu-
featuring establishmet, the Liberty

Growers Are Satisfied With Results
Ane New Orchards will be Set Out
The Delaware peach season is
about over and the reports that have
been going about that the Delaware
peach was doomed to sink into
Oblivion and growers had determined
to tear up their orchards and mark the
end of the reign of the delicious fruit,
appears to be unfounded. Nine tenths
of the growers seem to be more than
satisfied at the result of the season s
work. The Smyrna Transportation
and Manufacturing Company with
their daily boat line plying between
Smyrna and Philadelphia have been
carrying large quantity Of fruit.
Thousands of baskets have moved
from Brenford, Cheswold and Clayton
the railroad shipping centers OF
northern Kent County. Many thousand
baskets have been shipped from this
section and in the main growers are
pleased.

REALTRFULNESS OF ALASKA

In the annual report Of the surgeon general of the army, attention Is again specifically called to the fact that AlOska Is the healthiest station at which American troops are serving, the death rates being lar lower there than elsewhere, and the disabilities from disease being also far less than in any other American army post. For 1907 the death rate among the soldiers stationed in Alaska was $40 per cent the lowest ever recorded, Indeed there was but one death among the soldiers h Alaska during the year. and tha, was from pneumonia. There was no case of typhoid fever, and but one of malaria. Thirty per cent of the hospital cases were of influenza and bronchitis.
 Previous reports of the surgeon gen. eral have emphasized the truthiulness of Alaska, and of the entire Pacific Northwest as we'll. The health of the soldiers serving in the state of Washington is better than anywhere else in the country savein Alaska alone although Minnesota comes closely to the Washington record.
 I. was largely upOn data such as this that Dr. Woodruff, of the army bases his argument of the superior health. fulness of the humid regions of the Pacific northwest as compared with other parts of the country, and his further argument that region of cloudy skies and relatively limited sun shine Is better adapted to the white race than those where the sun shines the greater portion Of the time.
 AS bearing upon this theory, It is to be noted that the army post in Alaska which gives the best record Of all Is that of St. Michael, on an island on Boring sea, where there is excessive fog, a cloudy sky, and much heavier precipitation than on the mainland, out of all proportion greater than in the iuterlor.-Post-Iutelligencer.

Refusing to discuss the analysis of the recent delegate election. but de claring that he would at all time work for the interest of Alaska, Gov ernor Hoggatt. when interviewed in Seattle the other day on his way to Washington. said that SO far as be was concerned. personal matters would not enter into his efforts to secure favorable legislation for Al, aska at the coming session of con. gress.
 Pressed for an answer as to his stand on the territorial government. Governor HOggatt refused to discuss the question. saying that he would merely watch what was being done in congress to accomplish this end, and stepping in only when he felt that it was his duty to do so.
 Tn regard to territorial govern ment, have my own ideas, but this will not prevent my working with the delegate-elect for the good of the ter. ritory." he said.
 Governor Hoggatt is at least Ht. tie more polite in his talks to news. paper men in Seattle than he was a few months ago. when his kaiser like frankness was such as to array the entire district against his chosen candidate, He still has his own ldeas" about territorial government which are not those of the other peO- pie of Alaska. and the presumption is natural that he will feel it his duty 70 step in" when things are con rary to his own ideas" isn't 1t?
 President Roosevelt would be doing this district service if he would tell Governor Hoggatt to go back to Al. aska or quit the job. The people of this district have chosen whom they wish to represent them at Washing ton and quite as distinctly. and al the same time and In the same way declared that Governor Hoggatt does NOT represent the people of this dis rrict. neither does his own idea" coincide with heirs

EVENING PAPERS
VS.. MORNING PAPERS

SAN FRANCISCO, February 10
That the evening paper is the best ad-
vertising medium, which carries into
most homes the announcements of mer-
chants, is the conviction of Mr. j. w.
Eccleston of Los Angeles. Mr.. Eccles-
ton is the advertising manager of the
Broadway Department Store of Los An
geles, and probably the highest salaried
man in his line on the Pacific Coast.
He is on a visit to this city.
The success Of the house which he
represents is one of the most remark
able in business venture in the country.
Nine years ago it's owner, Arthur Let's,
arrived in Los Angeles with a small
capital and bought the bankrupt stock
of a retail merchant, and began his
business career in most limited way,
By clever advertising he has built up
an enterprise which is now doing a
business of several million dollars an
nually and is constantly increasing.
To use the words of Mr.. Eccleston,
the business of the Broadway Depart
ment Store is due to advertising, and
the house is the child of advertising.
AS one of the illustrations given by
him of what can be accomplished by
advertising, he said that in one day
last July his house sold 1900 pairs OF
shoes advertised at 81 pair. To do
this it took 115 clerks as hard as they
could work from morning till night.
IN selecting the medium, he prefers
the evening paper to the morning, be-
cause it goes into the homes and stays
there, while the morning paper does
not, being carried downtown by the
man of the family in the morning, and
consequently taken away from the wife,
for whom advertising is intended with
regard to the situation in San Fran
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1908-04-24

results from them. We always do what
we advertise, and the people have faith
in advertisements. The morning pa
per is taken down town by the husband
after he scans it over at the breakfast
table. Then he reads it on the way
to work and during the day. He may
bring it home in the evening, but it is
then too late for the wife to get any
benefit from the advertisements. The
evening paper on the other hand is the
paper of the home, being brought home
in the afternoon, and it stays there.
The wife then has an opportunity of
reading it and seeing the advertise
ments, and finding what is advertised
for the following day"

cisco, he declares that the merchants
are overlooking the evening paper as
a medium for advertising
THE majority of advertisers in San
Francisco he said this morning, are
overlooking their opportunity" mas
much as l believe they are overlooking
the evening paper as an advertising
medium.
Il have heard complaints among ad-
vertisers here that the morning papers
have large part of their circulation
outside the city. l never heard that
of the evening paper. If such is the
case, then in my opinion they are over
looking the evening paper, because
these very same men admit and agree
that the evening paper does not cir
culate outside the city in such a mark
ed degree.
In my line l am making a huge sue

Mon the San Francisco merchant pays
too little attention to his advertising,
What mean by that is, these people
who complain of conditions and do not
seek a remedy for them.
There is no difference in human ma
ture in San Francisco and Los Angeles.
There are the same people to work on,
and the same results are obtainable.
Human nature is the same the world
over. We are all looking for some
thing for nothing. 1t is within the
power of any large department store
to obtain merchandise within the mar
ket value, and after obtaining this
merchandise, if the merchant can &C
quaint the public of the fact that he is
disposing of the same at lower price
than his competitors, in my opinion
there is no reason\why he should not
obtain results.
