FAIRBANKS, Feb. 13.--Cary H. Morgan, son of J. P. Morgan, the New York banker who recently arrived in New York after a hunting trip in the Mckinley district winch lasted for five months, has wired to friends here that he plans to return very soon.
 It is believed that the young New Workers did not confne their atten- tions exclusively to hunting although they secured many beautiful speci- mems of goats, sheep, moose, caribou and bear, as we'll as a great variety of smaller animals. The impression prevails that young Morgan and his companions while hunting were for tunate in finding a mine in the Me Kinloy district and that he carried samples with him to the states for as saying.
 Morgan's companions, who were to have come to Fairbanks severa' weeks ago enroute to their homes, are still on the hunting grouds where shey will await his return.

NEW AUTO BODY GIVES
EVERYBODY FRONT SEAT

An entirely new design Of automobile
body called the National Newport
model is announced BY the National fac
tory. This new body style differs from
the general run Of car in that il has
a divided rear seat, inside arm rests
and a special baggage compartment, ac-
cessible from inside the car.
The new model is long and narrow
The rear SCAT Of the National Newport
is located near the center OF the car
thus giving the rear seat passengers the
same riding qualities that are had in
front seats
One OF the most noticeable innova-
tons is the divided rear seat. This
makes every seat a veritable arm chair
The center arm II the rear seat con-
tains a glove box. accessible by rails
ing the top Of the arm An option IS
offered OF the new style divided rear
seats or q single rear seat The side
arm rests for 10th the front and rear
seats are inside the body.
A special baggage carrying compart-
ment is located back OF the rear seat
The matter OF carrying robes, packages
suit cases, etc. has always been a
nightmare to designers In fact they
never have been able to make proper
p-ovisiC ] for these very necessary ar
ricles. This commOdiOus baggage COM
partment will be appreciated by the
cross country" driver for the reason
that it is easily reached whether the
top Is up or down When the com
psrtment is out OF the way and pro-
tected.

reefs its activities, says one of the
first things they had driven home to
them when Goodrich Service 10 the

lack Of permanent and ineligible
guide posts Countless unmarked

the car, and, ike the miles in Mark
Twain's quaint old story, There were
so many OF them. and each with the
same color as its fellow, and they 49,

that 'tWere an impossibility to tell how
many there were" and so on
1t was often the case Of a motorists
inquiring his way. and even when the
roads were marked, the signs were
conflicting, few and far apart. So
they started TO guide post them. They
knew it would be q service the mo-
torist would never forget Three truck
crews are now working under the di-
rect supervision of the Goodrich ma
tiOnal touring bureau, guide posting
the highways and byWays all over the
country. In fact, they have already
marked over 10000 miles OF roadway,
and before 1915 will have passed, they
will have brought that mileage sub
stantialiy forward
The new guide post erected by the
Goodrich touring bureau is made OF
porcelain enamel on IS inch gage
steel. The direction arms are pre-
pared of an indescructible material.
washed This latter construction win
not rust or deteriorate and the sign is
serviceable as long as the inch post
remains in the ground.

The average motOrist fails to ap-
preciate the possibilities Of his car.

the continued improvements in autOmO-

The Democratic party at Baltimore
In 1912 adopted platform and NOM
mated candidate for president and
elected him. Since the issues for the
campaign OF 1916 are about to be made
up It Is pertinent to review the Demo-
cratic record Of achievement or non
achievement on the basis of platform
pledges forgotten or repudiated. Here
are some OF the things the platform
contained. with statement OF re-
suits:
~ Specific Endorsement Of free
tolls for American vessels through the
Panama canal. Repudiated by con-
gress1onal act imposing tolls.
% Formal assertion OF the rights
of the states, with vigorous denun-
citation of "our opponents" for their
"usurpation" in their efforts to de-
prive the states Of any of the rights
reserved to them so as ito enlarge
and magnify BY indirection the powers
of the federal government" Repudi-
ated by the Ferris bill, an administers
ton measure.
ta) A moderate conservation APP
proved with the reservation that the
public domain should be "adminis-
tered and disposed Of with due re-
gard to the general welfare and the
"policy OF withdrawing enormous
tracts of public land on which tree
growth never existed and cannot be
promoted should be discontinued.
Repudiated by continuance Of the
restrictive methods Of Pinchotism
through the customary Departmental
rules and regulations.
ca Single presidential term in
.dorsed, with "the candidate of this
convention committed to this prin-
ciple." Ignored by candidate and
party.
l5) Extravaganza in public expen-
.ditures denounced and a return to
that simplicity and economy which
befit Democratic government" prom
Used. Congressional appropriations by
the Democrats the greatest In history.
t6l Civil service law honestly and
rigidly enforced" approved. But in
practice ignored wherever possible by
officials and openly repudiated by
spoils legislation designed to avoid the
civil service.
% Full protection to American
citizens abroad and to their property
in any foreign country guaranteed.
Regulated aff1rmat:vely By the Wit
son and Bryan Mexican policy.
The Democratic party might re-
trieve its lost reputation for candor
and honesty IL It should go before the
people in 1916 on the following brief
HIT truthful n1atfOrfn.
Resolved, That the National Demo-
cratic party in convention assembled,
opposes. traverses. and denounces the
various principles. and repudiates and
ignores the several pledges to which
1T was committed by the platform OF
1912.
What else can the Democracy do
in 1915?

Justice Hughes.

The continued discussion Of JUS
tice Hughes as a possible Republic
can candidate for the presidency
next year does little credit to either
the party or to Justice Hughes The
Justice was thought to have definite-
ly removed himself from the field Of
active politics five years ago when
ne accepted an appointment to the
bench; and there is evidence. In
writing, over his own signature that
he continues so to think. In a let
ter, addressed to friend in New
Jersey, Jrg:ice Hughes has made 1t
clear that he regards his accept
ance Of a 5udgesilip as q life-con-
tract for specialized field of labor
from which 1t would be improper for
MIN to retire. from which he does
not intend to retire. and In which
hts services might be seriously di-
minished in value IL there Is con-
tinued discussion of him as a candi-
date for political Office.
No one will doubt Justice Hngh<,'s
fitness for the presidency. No one
VIII question the enthusiasm which
his candidacy would arouse. But
this is not the point. He has I'M
dertaken to devote his life to the
Interpretation Of laws, not to their
execution: and, as balanced against
one or two terms in the White House
he sees in this by far the larger
opportunity for service to his fellow
citizens. He made this choice de-
iliberateiy, five years ago. He still
adheres to 1t. And whoever seeks
In any way to put pressure upon him
from a political standpoint does, as
we have said, no service to Justice
Hughes. On the contrary. such a
course tends to call the Justices
sincerity into question: and, though
intended in spirit of admiration,
is, In reality, mark OF disrespect.
Furthermore. 1t does not benefit
the Republican party. We have
never been in the habit of ravishing
the supreme bench for our presi-
Dental candidates-and there is no
paucity Of candidates to impel us to
begin such action now. The Re-
publican nomination for next year
is not going begging. Nor are we,
like the Democrats. forced to take
one only as our standard bearer.

will enter the convention. Ono OF
them will emerge as the favorite son
OF united and triumphant party.
He Will be worthy Of the honor. And
When we have nominated him and
elected him-as we shall-we shall
have the satisfaction OF knowing
that we have not impoverished the
courts in order to enrich the White
House. I,
