NELSON COMES OUT
FORLEG|SLATION TO
RELIEVE ALASKANS
Outrageous to Tie Up Re-
sources of Rich Territory,
He Declares.
FORCED TO IMPORT
ALL COAL THEY USE
Possibility of Legislation at This
Session Rests With House,
He Says.

Senator Nelson of Minnesota, chair
man Of the Senate Committee on Public
Lands, while at the White House today,
said that he favored legislation at this
session of Congress giving relief to the
people of Alaska. He said that 1t was
outrageous to tie up the resources Of
that rich Territory.
The Senator referred to the fact that
at the present time acts of Congress and
Executive orders had so completely tied
I'D the valuable coal lands of Alaska
that the people of the North country
were forced TO pay as high as $14 ton
for coal which they imported. whereas
q few miles from them were millions
upon millions of tons of fuel, minable
at from 81 to 81 a ton.
II do not know" said Senator Nelson,
whether there will be any public lands
legislation at this session of Congress
or not, but 1 do know that some is
needed.
Depends on House.
"It all depends upon the disposition of
the House with regard to our attempt
ing to bring up any relief measures. If
that body seems disposed to join us in
considering water power, conservation.
and other legislation Of this character
II is certain that we shall bring out
some bills.
"I am more concerned over the situa-
ton with regard to Alaska" continued
the Senator. ''I know that the people
of that Territory are being forced to
pay enormous prices for imported coal,
despite the fact that they have enor-
nous deposits within a stones throw
of the coast. Something should be done
and done without delay to throw open
some of these coal lands to the people.
we shall simply mark time In the
Senate. however" continued the Sem
ator, until we find out what the
House is willing to do toward taking up
public land bills. 1t is true that We
could initiate such measure In the Sem
ate, but IT would do no good to do
The Washington times., 1911-04-12

that unless we have some assuran noes
that the House will also act.
Invited to Seattle.
An invitation was extended to the
President today by Senator Jones OF
Washington to attend the Northwest
ern Development Congress to be held
in Seattle, Wash, in September. the
Senator explained that this Congress
would bring together thousands OF
Westerners. The President took the
question of accepting the Invitation
under advisement and will communicate
bis decision to the Senator later.
Another invitation to leave Wash
ington reached the President this
morning. Senator Briggs of New Jer-
sey ard a committee from the st.
Johns Lodge of Masons, at Newark,
n. j., came to the White House to urge
the Executive to attend the celebra-
tion OF the 150th anniversary OF the
lodges organization, to be held April
IS. Governor Wilson and Senator
MARITIME have each promised to be
present at this time.
"Prorogue" Letter.
While at the White House today,
Representative Mccall of Massachu-
sets said that he believed the letter
written to him by the President two
weeks ago assuring him that the Ex-
ecutive had no notion of proroguing
had resulted in the action of the DEM
ocratic caucus last night He said that
Speaker Clark had told friends of his
that If that letter had not been writ
ten. reciprocity would not be taken
up until after other tariff bills had
been acted upon.
senator johnson and Representatives
Gould and McGillicuddy of Maine, all
three OF them new members Of Con-
gress, paid their respects to the Presi-
dent dent today. 1t was the first call of the
New Englanders, and while talking to
the President Mr.. Gillicuddy told, the
President that the only reason why he
was able to come 10 Congress as a
Democrat was that the President had
not gone to Maine and campaigned
against him. The President had spoken
against McGillicuddy two years ago and
the Democrat was defeated.

Not in months have there been so
many people at the Executive Offices as
today. The stream began to gather at
8 O'Clock, and delegation after delega-

CHANGES PREDICTED
IN FUR FASHIONS

That there will be a revolution In fur
fashions az soon as the manufacturers
can bring it about is one of the things
that may be foretold with safety. APP

who dress and sell peltry that the present

The first cost, and consequently the prof

there is the further objection from the
furriers point Of view that the present
roomy garments do not rub or.-Wear
quickly. but can be made down through
so many stages that In the end they are
far more profitable to the buyer than to

With the advent Of the bolero the fur

will not be their fault II we do not
speedily have a return to the close-fittins
short coat or the little Elton. 1t is easy
to tempt a buyer to such purchase: the
cost is even comparatively little. not sc
much more than that of any other warm

Care of the Teeth.

Do not fail to have thorough exami-
nation OF the teeth by a reliable dentist
at least twice a year. Once the enamel
shows ever so little a defect cavity ap-
pears with startling rapidity and many
extra dollars and useless hours OF pain
are the result OF a few months neglect.
When the teeth are being examined
have them thoroughly cleaned. There are
some parts of the teeth very difficult of
access by the ordinary brush. These are
reached by the dentist, as are also the
crevices between the teeth, the danger
points Of decay.
The semi-annual cleaning means the
preservation not only of the Whiteness
and brilliancy Of the teeth, but of their
structure as well. With the corners and
crevices relieved Of all deposit. it is a
comparatively easy task to keep the visi-
BILE portions in order.
An important Issue in the fight against
decay is the constant eating of sweets.
Sweets spell ruin to the teeth, unless all
traces Of sugar are removed after the
sweets are eaten. When the toilet table
is handy use the brush and a bit of
cleaning paste or powder after eating
candy or cake.
Do not draw the brush across the gums
too vigorously or 1t will lacerate them.
causing them to recede. Select rather
soft bristled brush and operate it up and
down on the teeth rather than crosswise.
The bristles then penetrate the crevices
between the teeth and removes any food
particles that may have lodged therein.
Bicarbonate Of soda, which is no other
than ordinary baking soda, is one of the
best of the teeth preservatives and clean
ers. Use it once a day as you would
tooth powder. Dissolve the soda in water
and use 1t as mouth wash after eating
sweets.
Another simple and efficacious powder
for whitening the teeth is made OF three
and half drains of powdered chalk. a
quarter Of dram OF powdered camphor
and half a dram of powdered orris
root, Sitting many times is required to
mix these ingredients. The addition of
half dram of powdered CASTLE soap will
improve the mixture for those who like
saponaceous tooth cleansers.
Notice the part played by shining white
teeth in the smile Of your friends, and
you will realize the Importance of keep
ing yours In perfect order.
