ONE way TO MAKE
 ALASkA'S DELEGATE PEEVISH

A good way tO sir thu wrath of James WickrrSham. delegate from Alaska, is tn walk right up and ask him if his home is in Dawson City.
 It gets nn Wickcrsham's nerves l." find the people of the Unit rd States SD ignorant about Alas ka, and that inquiry is one of the commonrst rXhibitions of such ignorance. It seems that Dawson City isn't in Alaska at all, but in Yukon territory, British C0lum- bla. A few years ago the Post ! master General of the United StateS wrote tO the postmaster at Dawson and upbraided him fo, not sending in his reports to tho department, even though, as MT Wlck"rsham points out, there would have been just as mucf sense in the postmaster genera writing such a letter to the post. master at Montreal. Wickcrshau hasn't recovered from his disgus over the incident even to Uni. day.--ExchanEe.

the Sullivan Law, and TO those
holding these warrants. that |
hare succeeded in passing an
act making the County Board of

these claims. and would suggest
that ,nc -.r1'tors indulge the
Board by being patil~t and ma';e
easy terms Of settlement. No
one need be alarmed as the Coun-
" Board will be silt edge on
that proposition. And | would
especially suggest that creditors
not push suits pending. 10

each do his part to adjust this

will get every dollar owing him.

Dear Record Pres; This has
been a very busy week at the
Capital in law-making, the last
two days each house is only con-
sidering the measures proposed
by the other. therefore, every
time a bill goes through either it
measures one more act put up to
the Governor.
The house did not see the pan
acea for Kentucky roads that
Senator Bosworth so ably pro-
scribed in the senate remedy.
the house did not see it that way
and tore it to shreds. There will
be no State aid to roads this ses-
sion for two reasons; we have
not the money in the first place,
and secondly, the house and the
Governor would not stand for /
raise in the tax this year.
The proposition sounded well. |
but did pot look so well on paper
it had too much red tape and
meaningless provisions and its
friends would not stand for a
mendment, but in so railroading
It they lost the support of many
voters and thereby
ell down in the end. A make
shift Road Bill was passed, how
,ver, that nobody understands
my more than they made ar
