NATURE SPARES
Tn. Stricken Rose From Grief.

What fortunate provision of nature
it is. that deprives the rose of mental
suffering: for how poignant would be
its grief to discover. in the height of its
blooming glory. that a canker fed at It's
heart and that its beauty and fragrance
were doomed forever. Nature always
spares the suffering. she is Il veritable
store house OF pleasing rewards. for
those who seek her aid. In the years
gone by falling hair and grayness have
cast a gloom over the lives of thous-
ands OF young women. but thanks TO
the Investigations of scientists the true
cause of hair destruction is now known
to be the germ or parasite that bur
rows into the hair follicles Newbro's
Herpicide absolutely destroys this
germ. thus permitting the hair to
grow as nature intended. Sold by lead
ing druggists. Send 10c in stamps for
sample to The Herpicide Co. Detroit.

The Alaska prospector., 1908-07-16
Alaska Self Government.
(Post Intelligencer.,


 Gov. Hoggett, of Alaska, is back here on his way back to Alaska, after having attended the session of con- gress to oppose any propositions which might be brought forward to give the people of Alaska the same amount of self-government that is given to Porto Rico or Hawaii. Gov. Hoggatt says that the majority of the people in Alaska who are asking for home rule are the class that want to have dance hall dives and open gamb- ling. Gov. Hoggatt also says that he will work hard for the election of John w. Corson as delegate to con- gross.
 It is quite possible that Gov. Hog gait rather misrepresents the people of his territory in the assumption that those who favor home rule are merely those who desire to see a wide open policy in effect. For example, there is his candidate for delegate to con- gross, Mir. Corson. who has repeated ly declared himself to be heartily in favor of full territorial government, with local legislature, and who has given no evidence of a change of heart on this subject since his nomination as delegate by the IIoggatt conven- ton.
 Gov. Hoggatt says further that if all of the people of Alaska were to ask for territorial government it would be impossible to secure the pas sage of the law by congress. On what he bases this assumption does not ap- pear. Many influential members of congress have repeatedly said that they are willing to give the people of Alaska the legislation that they ask, if only satisfied that it is what they want. The trouble is that at each session of congress there are self-con- stituted delegates in attendance, none of whom are in agreement with the others. This was illustrated by the appearance of Gov. Hoggatt himself at the last session of congress. The delegate to congress elected by the people was heartily in favor of home rule. Gov. Hoggatt was and is stren- ously opposed to the people of Alaska having anything to say in the conduct of their own affairs, being q believer in government from the quarterback exclusively. Naturally, in the con flict of opinion, congress was not pre- pared to act.
