TOURS CALIFORNIA;
FINDS GOOD ROADS

Chicago, ILL.,, April 3.-Dr, Charles
f. Welch and wife passed through
Chicago today returning from the Pan
anna Pacific exposition. DR.. Welch is
president of the Welch Grape Juice
company of Westfeld n. Y, and they
have a prominent exhibit at the eX-
position.
DR.. Welch was enthusiastic about
the big success of the exposition and
strong booster for California, es-
pecially the roads. Dr. Welch drives
Buick Six which he had shipped to
him from Westfield to San Francisco,
and during the past three weeks has
been touring down to Los Angeles, San
Diego and Southern California DR..
Welch equips his car with Goodrich
tires, and he states he only had to
change tires once during the entire
trip.
He states that this is a great year
for touring; that there are thousands
of motorists now driving to the expo
sition; and that the coast roads are
splendid.
DR.. Welch is a strong booster for
Goodrich tires and tells a story that
his son, John F. Welch, has driven
set of Goodrich Siverton cord tires
over the toughest possible roads
through New York state and has now
a mileage of 600 and the four tires
are still on the car, Buick.
He adds, too. that the tire manufac-
turers have lowered the price of tires
to consumers, which will make it pos
ible for man to drive a car at much
less cost this year than any year pre-
vious. This, together with the lower
price of gas, means much to the motor
car industry, according to Dr. Welch

EXAMPLE BY DECLARING APRIL
18TH CLEANUP DAY. WILL FUR
NISH MEN AND TEAMS.

The mayors proclamation setting
aside Monday April 18th as the day

citizens who take pride in the appear
ance of the city, and from present in
dications, the city will be cleaned as
never before, the city will furnish men
and teams to assist in removing the
trash and urge that the citizens give
them plenty to do.
The next thing after cleaning up
the city, will be a paint-up campaign
in which all property owners will be
urged to give their buildings and
fences a coat of paint and white-wash
where necessary, this is not only good
citizenship. but it is good business
the paint preserves the buildings and
fences and for a nominal cost the
work can be done
Many citizens are not waiting for
next Monday. Some have already
cleaned up their premises and the city
has had frequent calls for the teams,
even this early in the week.

ARTHUR SAXON, STRONG MAN
AT THEATORlUM TOMORROW

One of the best acts that was ever
shown with the famous Ringing
Bros. Circus was that of the Saxon
brothers, strongest men in the world.
Some feats performed by this aggre-
cation of strength are truly remark
able. Probably the most sensational
one is where the brothers lie down
in the street and allow a loaded au-
tomObile to pass over them. While
performing this feat in Pittsburg.
Pa, about two years ago, one of the
brothers was killed, and the one who
appears here at the Theatorium to-
uesday-had his leg badly
mashed. Mr.. Saxon does not claim
to be the handsomest, but the strong
est man in the world, and he has
good reason for such claim. He will
be at the Theatorium tomorrow only,
and will give a free exhibition OF
his strength in front of the theatre
tomorrow evening at 7 o'clock, and
will give exhibitions in the theatre
afternoon and night. Crowded houses
will no doubt be the rule during this
engagement.

DUTY FOR DEMOCRATS.

It is the duty of Alaska Democrats to keep the welfare of the Territory constantly in mind and to urge such legislation by Congress and such executive action by the administration as will best promote that vel fare That can be accomplished only by being on guard to assist in every way possible to make the peoples control over the government nearly complete as pos sbe and to advise and consult with the party leaders in the Nation concerning measures that should be taken in connection with the government of Alaska. Within the Territory the duty of Democrats as that of all other citizens is to the best possible man ner the powers of government that we have and to seek to get more of them
 In short the Democratic rank and file must never forget that our principle in Alaska is the erection of commonwealth development Of prosperous and contented communities which to live and rear American families It is not hold public office, and as long as the Democratic party Is in control of the Nation the burden of being guard falls more heavily on Democratic citizens than others
 The Empire has great confidence in the citizenry of Alaska and it believes that the Democrats of the Territory are as patriotic and loyal to Alaska any element of the population. It does not believe that they will flee from bogy men. does 1t believe that they will sacrifice duty indulge in petty Ouarrels Oy- CT personal politics

COPPER

Copper is again advancing in price. and this time it is advancing in spite of the circumstance that copper productou has reached what is probably the highest point in the history of the country It is within about
 cent Of the price 1t reached last Spring before the greatly increased production began The high prices touched at that time producers to expand their means of production to extent that two or three cents were lost in the price but the great demand in the United States and Europe is again sending 1t up- ward.
 This augurs well for Alaska both the First and Third Divisions are copper producers well as gold producers. and both are capable of yielding much greater tonnage B the prices continue to advance the value of the exports from Alaska next will starte the country They will be far greater this year than ever before was the case.
