LIKE MAsTgR-LIKE MAN."

Francis J. Heney. who is conduct ing the graft prosecution at San Fran cisco. is known all over the country as a fearless and independent thinker as a man who is striving for and ob- taining purity in politics, Heney has no political affiliations and probably was never nearer to Alaska than Portland, Ore. He is a man no one can use for a cats-paw.
 Yet Francis Heney felt compelled to call upon President Roosevelt early last week and protest in the strong, est terms against the appointment of Powells as United States marshal at Nome. Heney said that Powells had a bad record and was implicated in the Oregon land frauds.
 Governor Hoggatt is the man who is advocating the appointment of Powells. Doubtless he finds him useful and adept in political way It is instructive to all yAlaskaus as we'll as to the president to be inform ed by Heney as to the caibre of the candidates approved of by Hoggatt It is a case of like master-like man.

The people of the United States are living in a prosperous age and a prosperous country We wear better clothes. eat better food and sleep in better houses than our ancestors did. We also have more and varied amuSe ments. But at the same time our ti- nancial fabric is far from being what it should Every few years a''financial panic" sweeps the United States and as a result hundreds of banks and business houses go to the wall thou. sands of men see their savings swept away, wage earners are thrown out of work while their families are on the verge of starvation; in short, our whole industrial machine is thrown out of gear and great hard. ships result.
 Every financial panic for the past fifty years has been explained diff Serenuy. In the lean and hungry years that followed lS9& the demo- crats and tariff revision were cred ited as the cause. Our 1907 panic was in turn blamed on the trusts. the high tariff. Rooseyelrs corporation legislation and over production. Pos slbly the democrats were to blame fo the panic of '93. just as a captain of a ship is to blame when he runs on an unchartered rock in the middle of the ocean; and possibly the causes above enumerated were in some small measure responsible for our fl, nancial depression in 1907.
 But the primary cause of the pan ics of '93 and 'O7 and the panics that will inevitably follow every few years have and always will be the same GAMBLING.
 Laws prohibit gambling in this country-that is it's illegal to play poker. faro or roulette. and lotteries are denied the use of the mail. But a man can go into any stock ex- change in the country and gamble on wheat, cotton, copper. corn. sugar. and a dozen other commodities AND THERE IS NO LIMIT TO HIS PLAY Even Monte Carlo has limtt-but our stock markets have none.
 Dealing in the futures" of any commodity is dealing in something that does not exist and legally. mor- ally and financially should be just as much gambling as trying to pick the ace in three card monte or calling the cards at faro.
 We do not let men play poker or roulette in public places because we have found that in the long run the gambler gets the money and the inno- cent wives and children of the wage earner who gambles were the suffer CTS. The laws prohibiting gambling were just and proper.
 But our bankers. the heads of railroads and trusts, men in all kinds of business. are allowed to gamble in wheat or cotton futures or watered stocks and sometimes our legislators and government officials are in on the rake off. That's one reason why it is still permitted
 As long as We permit gamblers to play with stocks and bonds and wheat futures we will have periods of financial depression in this country. In the fall of 1907 Augustus Heinze was caught bluffing in the copper market. He failed. As a result sev- eral banks he was connected with failed. Our financial system is like a row of dominoes. One failure hits another bank and there is al second failure. So on. The country has not yet recovered it's prosperity from the result of Mir. Heinze being called" by his conferes on Wall street

wonderful new plant which grows any

great quantities of luscious berries all

seed, and it takes only three months
to get them in bearing, and they may
be grown and fruited all summer in
the garden, or in pots during the win

discussion among the medical frater-
nifty. 1t is an almost infallible cure
when mixed with certain other ingre-
dents and taken properly. The fol-
lowing formula is effective: ITO one
half pint of good whiskey add one
ounce of Toris Compound and one
ounce of Syrup Sarsaparilla Compound.
Take in tablespoonful doses before
each meal and before retiring"
Toris compound is product of the
laboratories of the Globe Pharma-
ceutical Co., Chicago, but 1t as well as
the other ingredients can be had from
any good druggist.

was little red surface and constant
desire on her part to scratch her limbs.
She could not sleep and the eruptions
got sore, and yellow water came out
of them. l had two doctors treat her,
but she grew worse under their treat

Little Helen Bentley of Los Angeles,
aged five, dearly loves her grandma,
who has been living with her and her
parents. Recently grandma went to
Seattle for visit, and caught cold
on the way. When she arrived there,
she wrote back to Helen's parents that
she had reached Seattle, but had had

Soon afterward she saw one of her

she had terrible fight with her w
