 Ii you have anything in the line of moses, ferns, berries, flowers, vegeta- bles, shells, or any other Alaska product that is in any way beautiful, rare or extraordinary, hand 1t in to the com- mittee of the Ladies Auxiliary. Let's make a good showing at the fair, and apprisa the world of the fact that the people of Wrangell arc proud of their town and neighborhood.
 The effect oi ths indifference of the federal government to the welfare of the Alaskan Indian is shown by the follow ing rather pathetic incident taken from real life; A young native woman was recently released from jail, where she had been sent on a charge of adultery. Upon her liberation she proceeded to get beastly drunk in an attempt to be returned to jail. Asked by kind white lady why she acted so, the native woman replied: ''I can get no work to do, my baby's father is sick and can not support us; the only way can get food for me and my baby is to do some wrong and get put in jail" Parallel cases are of almost weekly occurred.
 Ketehikan Miner: ''lt is officially announced that Rev. Thomas Jenkins of St. Johns Mission has been elevated to the high office of Archdeacon for the District of Alaska. This honor comes to Mir. Jenkins after years of hard labor, and lies lightly upon his brow. It is the concensus of opinion that he is not ohly a priest, but man of the broadest and most comprehensive understanding of things apostolic and secular. Liberal in construction, kind and charitable in mind and nature he is peculiarly adapt ed for his mission in life, and that he has by earnestness of purpose without bitterness to any and love of fellowship for all gained the watchful eyes of his slperiors is not surprising to his many friends and parishioners. Mir. Jenkins will make his headquarters in Skagway, leaving here about the last of the pres ent month. His new position will bring him in contact with all parts of Alaska, and We may, therefore, reasonably ex. pect to see him serni-occssionally. Mr. Jenkins successor as priest will be Rev. Richard Roe, of the Diocese of Central Pennsylvania"

LEAGUE TO HOLD RALLY
LincoIn-RooseveIt Republicans
Plan Series of Mass Meetings

OAKLAND. April 20.--The Lincoln
Roosevelt Republican league of the
forty y-eighth assembly district has ar
ranged for a big mass meeting which
will be held Wednesday night at Arm
ory hall, Market street near Eleventh.
The principal speaker will be Charles
S. Wheeler, former regent of the Uni
versity of California and a noted public
speaker. An attractive musical ISo-
gram has been arranged.
This meeting will be the first of a
series which will be held in Oakland
preliminary to the May primaries.
The chief purpose is to stimulate wider
interest in the leagues work and at
this time to give complete expose of
the nefarious political jobbery of the
Herrin machine in the third congress
sional district by which the attempt
to disfranchise republicans has been
made in order to retain control in the
Southern Pacific ring of the district.
The ramifications of the ring In
county affairs will also receive atten-
tion from this time forth in order that
the public shall be freely educated to
the political situation.

BOXING, BANQUETS
AND FUN FOR TARS
Los Angeles RegaIes Officers at
Dinner and Men With
Athletic Sports

LOS ANGELES, April 20.--A long
day of merrymaking by the sailormen
of the American battleship fleet, box
ing matches. barbecues, baseball games
and wild west shows being included
in the entertainment provided by the
city. was brought to a close tonight
with two big banquets-one to the
petty officers at the largest cafe lin
the city and the other to the adpirals
and commanding officers of the feet
and members of their staffs. The lat
ter function, the most elaborate and
costly ever held In this city, was pro-
vided at the Hotel Alexandria, the Of
fetal feet headquarters. and was made
the occasion of the formal welcome
to Los Angeles. both Mayor A. c. Har-
per and Governor ]. n. Gillett being
included among the speakers.
Rear Admiral Thomas, in command
Of the fleet, responded to the addresses
of welcome, while among those speak
ing TO set toasts were the Rev. Rob-
ert J. Burdette, Right Rev. Bishop
Thomas ]. Conaty, Henry W. OMel-
veny and Captain A. A. Freis, United
States army. A vacant chair marked
the place originally assigned to Rear
Admiral Robley D. Evans. The latter.
though absent because of the illness
which keeps him at Paso Robles hot
springs, shared in the tributes of the
evening.
A fourth of the men included in the
entire enlisted force of the fleet came
ashore TO take part in the festivities.
Most of the sailors made at once for
the pleasure grounds at Chutes park,
wRre an amateur boxing carnival,
msnaged and refereed by Champion
James ]. Jeffries himself, was the first
attraction of the day. The enthusiasm
reached it's height when the light
weight championship of the fleet was
decided under navy regulations, Lu-
Hnski of the New Jersey winning from
Myers of the Ohio in eight rounds.
Today's program for the entertain
ment of the enlisted men is to be re-
peated tomorrow, Wednesday and
Thursday.
Tonight's banquet to Admirals
Thomas, Sperry and Emory was repiete
with surprises, picturesque features
and beautiful effects in floral decora-
tions and electric lighting. The menu
was a secret affair, each course being
attended by a surprise.
The big gilded dining salon of the
Hotel Alexandria had been closed to
guests for four days while the decora-
tions for the banquet were in prog
ress. The entry way was an arbor of
flower entwined lattice work. Above
the tables, seating $50 guests, trellis
work had been constructed and in this
way side walls and ceiling all were
covered with roses. poppies, genaniums,
lilies and the myriads of flowers that
abound in southern California. Lieu
tenant General Adna r. Chaffee pre-
sided at the banquet and Joseph Scott,
president of the Los Angeles board
Of education, acted as toastmaster

DO TARS INSIST
ON FULL DRESS?
California Club Women Are I'M
decided as to Garb to Be
Worn at Ball

Perhaps the most violent effort yet
made by California's women in the in
terests of the fleet took place yesterday
when 80 women attempted to put them
selves in the jackies places and get
their point of view for the approaching
bah. The chief points discussed were
those Of dress and of escort Would
bare shoulders and long trains discon-
cert the visiting sailors, or, on the
other hand. did Jack ashore insist upon
formality and fun dress? The ball re-
ception committee Of the California
club didn't know. Mrs. Arthur Corn
wall, who was in the chair, was for full
dress.
Some OF you have pretty shoulders
and like to show them" said Mrs Corn
wall. Besides il is more of compli-
ment to the men who will be our
guests"
But il is not as if it were at hotel
or in a private house" protested Mrs.
Orr. My vote would be unquestionably
Tor simple dresses and short skirts.
(Short skirts. that is, as opposed to
trains.)
We will not be there for pleasure" :"
went on Mrs. Orr; I'VE will be there on
duty. I think it would spoil il all; I
think it would be extremely poor taste
for this committee to go in full dress.
Mrs. John Birmingham of the Forum
club quoted the wife of the secretary
Of the navy.
When ] saw Mrs. Metcalf," said Mrs.
birmingham, -'she said that she in
tend to attend the ball and would dress
for ii as she would for any state ball
in Washington. She said that the
sailors were used to formality and
would expect it."
Mrs. Orr suggested that perhaps Mrs.
Metcalf did not understand that the
reception committee at this affair
would be on duty from S o'clock until
midnight, in draughts and dirt.
Mrs. L B. Tuohey expressed a feeling
that the committees wearing handsome
dresses might have bad effect on the
girls who would be it's guests. The
dress problem was not. settled.
1t was finally decided, after long
discussion, that, although every girl
should be escorted to the ball her es-
cort could not be permitted to dance,
as the floor space would be needed for
the sailors. The escorts are to be
seated In the galleries, where they may
disconsolately watch their whirling
sweethearts until after the last dance.
Introductions We're discussed. IL being
decided that every member Of the com
mittee be a deputy floor manager for
the evening.

T. Brown, secretary of the third con-
gressional district republican commit
tee, has announced that he will have
nothing further to do with Herrins
subservient Organization.
District Attorney Brown virtually
has bolted the organization. Disgust
with the operations of the machine in
it's hand and glove Affiliations with the
nefarious Herrin state organization,
which authorized a recent outrageous
attempt to disenfranchise reputable re-
publican voters and devised a dual Sys-
tenn of primaries for May with the
express purpose of confusing citizens,
led Brown to make announcement to-
day of the severing of relations.
HAS OWN FIGHTS ON
IT have had little to do with that
organization for the last six weeks OF
two MONTHS said Brown, and / will
have less to do in the future. 1 have
my own fights on hand, plenty of them.
and / have no time left for other peo
pies fights. I have not been consulted
about any move they may have made.
because / did not care to be consulted
about them. In the future they will
have to get along without me as my
time is occupied. If they have any
fights they will have to settle them
for themselves. / am too busy"
Browns tone was one of flnality. De-
spite the warm personal friendship
existing between himself and Congress
man Knowland, Browns instincts for
decency have refused to be smothered
longer. and he has broken his rela-
tions with the machine.
His action followed an announcement
by County Clerk John P. Cook today
that the organization had kindly ap-
pointed delegates to the district re-
publican convention in Piedmont, En-
lyn township, Ocean view and Clare
mont districts of Alameda county.
where the primary law is not manda-
tory and where the machine hopes to
intrench itself SO thoroughly with the
aid of its possible winnings in thor
oughly organized sections of the mu-
inequalities as to retain control of the
convention and to send a delegation to
Chicago in June to knife the Roosevelt
policies.
KINDNESS SAYS COOK
Cook explained that except for the
the delegates, the citizens of those dis
tricts would have been compelled to
bear as heavy a financial burden as
would, be imposed upon them at gen.
eral election. and the idea of saving
this expense appealed so strongly to
the machine that the voters were re-
lieved of 1t along with the opportunity
of choice of delegates.
Brown said he had no idea who had
been chosen delegates from these dis
tricts or for other portions of the con-
gressional district, as the matter no
longer interested him.
