RAO|UM CURE
 DID NOT SAVE
Congressman Bremner, Who Had Large Quantity of Radium in
 Cancer Growth, is Dead

BALTIMORE, Feb. 6.-Congress- man Bremner died here today from the effects of cancer, which had grown so near to his heart that surgeons feared to use the knife and they had therefore resorted to the use of radium. Eleven tubes with radium worth $100,00O were inserted in the cancerous growth, but with out the result of checking it.
 The doctors resorted to the use of radium because of the certainty of death if the knife were used.
 For short time the congressman showed marked improvement but when reaction set in he slowly sank until the end came today
 Dr. Howard A. Kelly. of Baltimore, performed the operation, and it was at private sanitarium he passed away.
 Not only was the amount of ra- dium being used in MT. Bremner's case the largest in quantity and mon etary value that has ever been used in a single operation, but it is also said that the growth is the most ex- tensive that has ever been subject ed to the radium test. It was be- cause of this latter fact that the ra- dium was applied directly to the tu- nor by means of eleven tubes in serted in incisions. The usual meth cd is to place the radium tubes at some distance from the part affected by cancer.

DEMOCRATS WILL
 MEET SATURDAY
ing Year Are to be Elected Frame Leads the Club.

John Frame, as president of the Valdez Democratic club has issued call for meeting1of the members of that organization to be held next Monday at the city hall. The meet ing is to be held at 8 o'clock p. Ill. The notice says that officers of the club will be elected for the ensuing year and that other business will be transacted The first meeting of the club was held two years ago and the Frame faction of the party fought the Donohoe faction to a finish and defeated Donohoe by tremendous majority Since the fight Donohoe and Frame have united, but it re mains to be seen to what extent they will be able to swing the voters in line.
 The fight at the meeting next Sat urday will be watched with interest by all politicians in Valdez, as much patronage depends upon the control of the organization. The anti-Frame Democrats claim that it does not mat ter what he does that no recognition will be given his wing of the party by the Jennings-Strong-D Democrats, who control the territor- ial party organization, and are not disposed to forget the split in the convention caused by the Frame Harris-O O'Connor-Mo Demo crats and the nomination of a rival candidate, who received 253 votes in the delegate election of 1912. Har- ris received only SS votes in the Third division in spite of the fact that 192 names were enrolled on the list of members of the Valdez Democratic club, and of the 88 votes 30 were boiled in Valdez and 15 on the reser- vation. Jennings received 28 votes in Valdez and 13 on the reservation
 Jennings received 918 votes in the territory.
 The circular also states that the Democratic ladies are cordially in vited to attend the meeting and be- come members of the club.

for her and that she does not need
her intellect TO do that.
A husband is worth while intel
lectually in the exact proportion that
his wife does her own thinking. 1t
Is as stupid for a man to tell his
wife that she should discharge the
cook or cease from calling on her
neXt-dOOr neighbOr as it Is for a wom-
an to advise her husband that in his
place, she would tell the boss exactly
what she thinks of him." But COM
paratively few women do that. If
there is anything on earth that the
average woman holds in abject awe IT
is her husbands job. She reverences
it; she fairly worships it; it has for
her mystery and fatality.
Man. on the contrary, by that
arbitrary and supreme endowment of
wisdom which he believes he has in
herited. feels himself competent to
advise woman upon everything. 1T
has always been a wonder To me that
he hasn't undertaken To nurse the
baby just TO show her howl Short
of that, he does thrust himself into
his household as the supreme court
OF wisdom even in such essentially
womanly matters as a change Of
butcher or an overcharge on the gro

that the only possible answer to the
question, What is a husband worth

A husband is worth much or little
as he stimulates OF stultihes his wifes

1T is ABOUT TIME" said Louis
Victor Eytinge. in a paper prepared
10y him and read at the recent To-

awakened to the danger that threat

statement abounds in truths-naked
ones.
He has sounded note of warning
that every sane and sound business
man who is sending multigraph or
process letters through the mails.

The waste is enormous. Most of

of the habit: Start saloon in your

You will have no license to pay. Go

there are siXty--nine drinks in one

The scverest May drought known
here for several years prevails all
through this section, throughout the
entire state. The country west of the
Blue Ridge seems to he most seriously
affected. The bluegrass pastures in
many sections are dry and brown
Oats and wheat are practically ruined
in many localities, noticably where the
ground was not thoroughly prepared
before seeding. Young grass, sown
on oats and wheat, is seriously in
jurcd, and in many instances, killed
entirely. The papers state that the
fruit crop will be cut short by the
drought, apples already beginning to
show effects of the drought. The hay
crop will he cut in half, and unless
rain comes very soon, many meadows
will not be cut at I'LL. Rain may fall
before these lines are read, as the
Weather Bureau sees some signs of
rain the last of this week.

MIR. X. TATE IRVINE AND THE
OFFICES

Quite naturally, but unfortunately,
the dispensing of patronage in the
Ninth district, and Hon. r. Tate Ir-
vine, candidate for Congress, have
been connected. Some have thought
that he would use his influence for
this or that candidate, in the hope of
aiding him in his canvass. 1t was
not unnatural that such an impress
sion should have been made, perhaps.
but the impression is entirely erro-
neous.
If Mr.. Irvine were certain of his
election the case might be different,
but as it is, that he should take sides
with one Democratic candidate as
against another, create enemies in his
own party, is unthinkablc, even had
Mr.. Irvine not positively stated his
position.
No, Mr.. Irvine will not try to help
or hinder any man for any office in
this district.
Let's drop this phase of the cam
paign. We have all worried and fret
ted, quarreled and "cussed" too much
already about the matter of these of
fees. Drop this phase of the cam
paign, and let's all pitch right in at
once, coats off and sleeves rolled up,
and give Tate Irvine great majority.
Here's at it. Everybody is invited to
join the militant band. The slogan is,
Tate Irvine to Congress" We in
vite all the boys to help, even our
eruptive brother, "Bill" Eads. If only
we could get this twclvc-inch gun
wheeled about and firing in the right
direction, there'd be something doin'
The Clinch Valley News has had its
say about matters connected with the
patronage. We have no regrets, moth
ing to retract, but as we see it now.
we shall leave the matter in the
hands of the authorities at Washing
ton entirely, and accept what is hand
ed out with as good grace as possible,
and give what little influence we have
