Don't Vote on Laws.

There is a general disposition on the
part of the voter to refrain from voting
upon proposed laws The vote is
significantly small on legislative mat
ters. 1t is exceedingly rare that q
proposition receives the support of a
majority of the voters of a State, and
in some instances laws have been
enacted by the referendum by less
than 10 per cent of the whole number
of voters. Those who are specially in
terested in the proposed measure vote,
while the great body of the voters are
Indifferent.
This is a perfectly natural result,
because most of the voters do not have

When you hear the whistle at the Cascade laundry go toot-toot lot of times in rapid succession you will know there is something doing in the fire line. Then, if you listen attentively, you will hear it ''toot" three long blasts which will indidate to your edu- cated ear that the fire is west of Rich mond street, or on the up-river side.
 If you hear it "toot'' two long blasts you will instantly realize that the blaze is east of Richmond, and you will be off like a warhorse scenting battle.

STANLEY SCEARCE
 MONTANA MAGNATE

Old Dawsonites will remember Stan ley Scearce, the go-ahead young mer- chant of the early days. Scearce is now located at Roman, Mont. and from all accounts is doing exceedingly well.
 The Anaconda Standard recently had an elaborate writeup of the town of Roman, which is situated in the old Flathead reservation, and the place which Stanley Scearce holds in the community can be gathered from the columns of the Montana newspaper.
 Scearce is the organizer and presi- dent of the First National Bank of Roman, president of the Roman Com mercial Club, president of the Roman Townsite Company, and proprietor of d large department store--in which venture he has invested over $l00, 900. In the absence of railroads Mr. Scearce moves his freight to Roman in large Packard truck, which runs night and day, sometimes delivering as much as IT! tons in 24 hours. These enter prises not being sufficient outlet for all of MT. Scearce's boundless energy, he has bored an artesian well and struck good water, which he is supplying to the town, and has also installed a sys- tenn of fire protection. With few as sociates Scearce has gone into fruit business. Eighty acres of land have been purchased and scientific commer cial orcharding will be practiced for the information of aspiring fruit-grow- CTS. MT. Scearce is only B years old.

Attorneys Heading
 in This Direction

From all accounts the Iditarod will be well supplied with legal lights this summer in addition to our perfectly good selection of luminaries who are already lighting up the litigious DOT tion of our population. They seem to be heading in from all directions.
 From Seattle it is reported that one Alfred Murphy and partner are com ing, while A. J. Daly has already an- nounced his intention of looking after his Idtarod practice for the summer.
 E. Coke Hill and Mr. Grigsby, of Nome, were supposed to be on their way over the trail, but as nothing has been heard from them of late they may have delayed for the water.
 Joseph H. Bullock, of Lexington, Ky, who has spent the winter in Fair banks, will be here on the first boat to visit his old friend, Major Albrecht, and it is possible he will take up prac- tice here if it looks good to him.

Caterpillar Traction
 Is Success on Trail

It is interesting to note that much of the freight that will land here on the first boats by way of Lebarge will have been transported by the first caterpiller traction engine operated i'll the North by the White Pass railroad between Whitehorse and the foot of the lake.
 The engine which runs on a sort of progressive treadmill arrangement was brought in this spring by the company to help move the large amount of freight they had contracted to deliver to Dawson and the foot of the lake, prin- cipally for the Iditarod
 The engine was tried out and al- though it was found that snow clogged it at first, this difficulty was overcome with lenders. It has been found the proper thing for heavy loads according to the Whitehorse Star, and once the trail is broken to it's wide guage, it is capable of dragging 40 to 50 tons at a rate of two and & half and three miles an hour.

opens. Mr. Sullivan, the first chief of Iditarod's fire department, spent most of the winter near Bethel but for the last few weeks has been at George town. The latest reports along the Kuskokwim are not encouraging, he says, and he will once more stack his fortunes with Iditarod.
 Luke Radigan, of the firm of Radigan and Paris, poolroom proprietors of Cullenville, at the forks of Flat creek, came into Iditarod city during the week on business. Mr. Radigan looks forward to a prosperous summer at the forks, and will install another pool table as soon as the Minneapolis arrives

HOOSIER POET
 DEAD IN LIFE

Lexington, Ky, Feb. 24-That James Whitcomb Riley, the famous Hoosier poet, has been i'll since last summer, the nature of his illness, which has been concealed by his friends and the newspapers of his home city, Indian apolis, has just come to light.
 With two lifelong women friends of Mir. Riley, one of whom was a school mate of the poet in his native town of Greenfield, John Wilson Townsend, the Kentucky writer, called at the Riley home recently, and there, MT. Town send told friend, he received one of the greatest shocks of his life.
 On sofa, with his eyes staring into vacancy. the veins of his face flushed, his hair almost gone, his small emaci- ated body covered with a big robe, lay the greatest poet Indiana can claim and one of the worlds foremost dialect poets, James Whitcomb Riley. MT. Townsend said his first thought was : Riley is dead"
 One of the women told the poet her name and asked him if he remembered her.
 "Alice? Alice? Alice,?" he said, and then finally: ''Eh. eh, yes, of course do sit down."
 "Only once," MT. Townsend con- tinued, "did Riley's mind flash up like the final flicker of sputtering candle before it goes out, when he asked Alice; "Well, any body dead or married out in Greenfield ?"
 Then with the trace of smile he fell back into his monosylabfes and short questions and answers.
 For many years Riley had lived in the home of the late Major Charles L. Holstein, the Indiana poet and lawyer. He has had several strokes of par alysis, he is helpless, his mind is prac- tically complete blank. Truly, "Riley is dead"

NERDS FIDDLE

We have often roasted Nero that he played his violin, while his na- tive Rome was burning and the fire men raised din; there he sat and played "Bedelia," needless of the hery storm, while the fire chief pranced and sweated in his neat red uniform. And I often think that Nero had pretty level head; would the fire have been extingnished had he fussed around instead? Would the fire insurance folks have loos- ened up a shekel more, had old Nero squirted water on some groc- CTS cellar door? When there comes a big disaster people straightway lose their wits; they go round with hands a-wringing. sweating blood and throwing fits; but the wise man sits and tiddles, plays tune from end to end, for it never pays to worry over things you cannot mend. It is good to offer battle when catas- trophes advance, it is well to keep on scrapping while fellow has a chance; but when failure is as cer- tain as the coming of the dusk, then it's wise to take your fiddle and fall back on Money Musk" - Walt Mason.

John MihaICik Will
 Hydraulic Rich Ground

From the Fairbanks press it is learned that John Mihalcik, well-to- do operator of Ester creek for a number of years past arrived in the Panama metropolis recently and gave it out that he has solved the mining problem of Ready Bullion creek, and that his hydraulic plant will be in with the early shipments.
 MT. Mihalcik is the owner of the first and second tier benches at No. 3 Ready Bullion creek, where he has been prospecting for three years, long enough to determine that the ground carries a big stake for the man who can handle it properly. The ground is wet however, and the Ready Bullion Mining Co., which took out so much money year ago from No. ?, found the handling of the pay by drifting methods a very expensive proceeding.
 Number three is virgin ground and Mir. Mihalcik finally decided to install hydraulic plant for which he went Outside last November.
 In waiting for the arrival of his pipe and monitor MihaIcik will strengthen a ditch of mile in length from Willow creek and the pups of upper Ester and will be in a position to do some work this summer.
 The gravels on No. are about 42 feet in depth and thawed, with ' feet of muck. With a good grade on the creek, it is possible that the Fairbanks dish jet will be one of the first to come through with a practical test of hy- draulicking possibilities in deep ground.

AT THE CHILDREN'S PARTY

The hostess who can think up a
new way of serving refreshments at a
child's party will be well repaid for
the trouble taken by the interest and
fun the youngsters will extract from
it,
Novel and highly successful was the
manner of serving the goodies at a
party lately given. The children were
asked to come into the dining-room.
They found on the table small cen
tcrpiece and a vase of carnations and
on one corner a large package. When
this was opened it was found to con
tain cloth which the mother looked
at in surprise but spread on the ta-

The hostess then dispatched one of
the children to obtain a package from
the china closet, and this was found
to contain paper napkins A third
box on the sideboard contained deli
cious sandwiches.

coming interested, and when little

USES FOR SAFETY PIN
ACCORDING TO THIS THEY ARE
MANY AND VARIED.
Seemingly One of the Chief AdJuncts
OF the Dressing Roon1-Much to
Commend It Even as Key
Ring.

What is a safety-pin good for be-
sides pinning?' l hear some needless
creature say. What. indeed Why,
very much. as these few hints of the
possible will show.
When you have beading to thread
in waists of lingerie, pin one end with
q large safety-pin and run it through
with this as a bodkin 1t is much
better than an ordinary bodkin, as it
cannot get unthreaded and is easily
recovered if lost in the beading
Use the humble safety-pin also in
the fastening of belts on wash
dresses. Not in the obvious manner
heaven forbid but attach the pin to
one end Of the ribbon or lawn so that
it forms a metal loop, so to speak, and
on the other end, inside, sew two
ordinary dress hooks. Leave short
end over, so as to hide the pin.
To hang heavy skirts, etc, in a
closet where there is not much room,
The Winslow mail., 1911-05-06

try running a strong tape across the
top and pinning the skirt to it with
the very largest and strongest safety
pins you can get. This holds clothes
much more smoothly, by the way,
than the usual hanger, which is really
made for coats, and not for skirts at
ALL
A safety-pin as a keyring may not
appeal to some, but it does admirably
for the household bunch, and has the
signal advantage of opening easily to
admit of the taking off of old keys
and the putting on of new-a virtue
that few keyrings possess. IF your
esthetic bump is very highly devel-

It would be impossible to imagine a
