The Alaska Trip
 of Newspaper Men

The Pacific Mining Journal, of
 Seattle, speaking of the proposed
 trip to Alaska by the Alaska Btu reau of the Chamber of Commerce, says:
 Reservations have been made by prominent publicists from all over the country, many of them men whose names are household words, and these men will see all of Alaska that is seeable in an 8,ooo-mile trip and under the best possible auspices. At each point men will join the party who are ex- perts in the industries and re sources of that particular place and give the visitors a first hand ac- count of what they know. The truth about Alaska will be known to this influential body of men when they return and great good will come to the territory from their journey and the vivid i'm pressions and exact knowledge these men will gain.
 Great credit is due o'the Alas sa Bureau of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce and ]. L. McPher- son, the efficient secretary of the bureau, whose idea this is and who las in charge the details of the rip.

Thursday night while Harold
 Lee was out fishing in his gas boat
 Rival, a young whale became tam
 gled in the gill net and for a time was question whether 1t would be Harold or the whale.

The bill does not say that in so
many words. but that; will be the .ef-
feet Of placing county. officers in the
non-partisan class. There will be
only the legislative nominees left to
form a partisan committee.
This was one Of the points brought
out yesterday in the discussion. of
the bill which had been; made spec
ial order of business for IL a.. m. In
order to enable senators to be thor
oughly familiar with the measure, 1T
was decided to postpone final action
on the bill to Monday at 2 p. m. :.
a lengthy discussion was started
by Sen. Geo. H. Sullivan, Saltwater,
who suggested that the section in
the primary law which provides for
a classification Of candidates ~ div.
idlng them into classes: ought to be
repealed. :*< -
He said it was a restriction on the
right Of the. voter to vote for whom
ever he chose, because he was al

Most old people must give to the
bowels some regular help, else they
suffer from constipation. The condl-
tion is perfectly natural. 1t is just
as natural as it is for old people to
walk slowly. For age is never SO ac-
tive as youth. The muscles are less
elastic And the bowels are muscles.
so all Old people need Cascarets.
One might as well refuse to aid weak
eyes with glasses as to neglect this
gentle aid to weak bowels. The bow
els must be kept active. This is impor,-
tant at all ages, but never so much
as at fifty.
Age is not a time for harsh physics
Youth may occasionally whip the bow
els into activity But a lash cant be
used every day. What the bowels Of
the old need is gentle and natural
tonic. one that can be constantly
used without harm. The only such
tonic is Cascarets and they cost on
