Don't Let
Your WHITE
Clothes Turn
YELLOW

Every good housekeeper
knows that eventually the city
water in Ell Paso turns
clothes yellow. Some do not
know why.
It's because your laundress
uses a lime" soapI Impos-
siblel you buy the soap your
self? Yes. But nevertheless
it's a lime" soap. There's
a chemical reaction which the
soap and water produce and
which results In the lime in
the water combining with the
soap to make your clothes
yellow.
Of course you could avoid
this by using a bleach. but
you'd soon ruin the clothes.
How much better to send
your whole family wash. not
merely your husbands and
sons linen. to US and have It

 It's Sure q Bum Sheet
 Here, you sleepy gozabos, we want you to read this: we are in r,ceipt of the first number of the Pioneer sun, edited by F. L. Beede, a brother Of our father in laws beautiful but agoG daughter, and turned out down in the sun light of regions desert wast-Har- ney county. Reader, please first unders' and tnat we spent IS years in the Uarney country occupied in al the varied methods of beating the public out Of the wherewith 10 purchase bread and butter. We know that country as the cyange-- ist knows his Bible. We know w5le"o each brand oEstcck ranges the hil,s. We know the watering places and ta trails. We know where lhe biggest were killed. We have patiently listened to the greatest tuu con peddler in that region Of gage brush and jacI. rabbits, G@d we can give you the tgne racts Of that country, if our word is any good, which i, isn't. Editor Beede is one of our old devils back In the eighties, and probably picked uu some of our slovenly habits, at least his paper looks almost as rotten as the Mail, but he will live off it. Already he has at least $7 worth of advertising patronage, and that being a country where they $ cal range beef, he will sure make a goa live Of il.

 BRING MAIL

The government boat Peterson will arrive in Skagway either to- night or tomorrow morning with three days local mall from Juneau, according to Postmaster Kindell.
 The Peterson was in Juneau yes- terday when the steamship Ala meda of the Alaska Steamship Co. arrived from the south on her way to the westward, and Postmaster Nindell learning of the Peterson's being there and the Alameda's ar rival immediately made arrange ments to have the Skagway mall for warded, thereby advancing the time of delivery here by at least 24 hours. The three days accumula- ton of interior mail at Juneau will not be sent to Skagway until the departure for this place of the Georgia on her regular weekly run, and will reach here Sunday.
 As the Georgia will make close connections on her next return voy- age from Skagway to Juneau with southbound boats from the west ward all mail from here destined for the outside will be forwarded at that time to Juneau.

SENATOR HARRY LbNE Of OREGON
 OFFERS SOLUTION OF 4 PROBLEM

the largest proportion of the in- mates of insane acylums, for the reason that my experience is to the contrary"
 But If you are going to drink, says the senator, drink straight booze"
 T think my friend from Missis- sippi, Senator Williams, is mis- taken if he thinks that alcoholic drink derived from the grape, the fermented liquors in contradistinc- tion to those that are distilled, are less harmful. It is my opin- ion that he is decidedly mistaken. The Englishman and the Scotchman and those people of Europe who drink heavy port wines are, I think, kille1 off as quickly, and l think more quickly, than those who confine themselves to the use of pure whiskey,
 If person is going to drink at all, if he wants to get drunk, if he desires stimulant, as physician who has practiced for 40 years I would say to him, Get good pure whiskey.' Leave wine and beers out. You will last longer and do yourself less harm and the re- suit will come cheaper in the long run. It is a matter of economy. If you really wish to use alcohol and get the effects from 1t without any subterfuge or foo!ing about it. It is the safest drink of all"
 T say this in order that those who are going to continue the use & it may have the advantage of my study on the subject. If they want straight, unadulterate5 liquor up- on which to get drunk, let them use pure alcohol, cologne spirits. the alcohol itself diluted with water. You will all do better to stick to pure whiskey rather than to go fooling around high wines"

JUNEAU ID HAVE
 b CLEANING UP

The Juneau city council on Fri day night of last week at a special meeting accepted the resignation of Chief of Police William M. Me Bride, who had filled the office for the twelve months previous, and el- ected Emery J. Sitter to fill his place.
 Tn new chief of police took office last Monday and has made clean sweep of the department by the sell sction of his own subordinates.
 Chief Sitter has had experience in police work at Nome as we'll as in Michigan. He was a Btampeder in 10 the Chisana country when the news of James rich discovery first reached the outside world, but has been @ resident of Juneau for the past year. Of him Gov. J. F. A. Strong is quoted as saying, You could comb Alaska with a fine-tooth camb, and you would not find more honest or a more competent mon than Sitter"

JAPANESE GETS
 TWENTY YEARS

K. Yamaguchi, a Japanese, con- victed of the manslaughter of T.. Kaiita, at Sitkoh Bay cannery last April, was sentenced by Jugde Rob, ert w. Jennings Saturday morning in the district court, to serve twenty years in the federal peniten- tiary at McNeil's island, Wash. The defendant had nothing to say when Jugde Jennings asked If he wished to make a statement before sentence was pronounced. When he was taken back to his cell he appeared more cheerful than he has for several weeks, and told his guard he was glad the suspense of waiting sen tenco was over.

Washington, Feb. 5-Senator Har- ry Lane of Oregon. haS offered Q solution for the blind pig problem, in as far as 1t rela,es to gentle men from other states finding liquor in states that have gone dry. His experience in Alaska furnished the inspiration.
 For the benefit Of those states, he declared, "I would suggest they adopt the method Of the Eskimos to protect their food supplies from the ever-hungry malamute dog,- which is to cache it upon a platform about 20 feet above the ground. By do- ing this they would compel enter prising and thirsty gentlemen from otler states to seek their solace in the open air by means of lad der"
 Alaska, by the way, has furnish Senator Lane with considerable ar gument against liquor.
 "In the interior of Alaska" he said, where the temperature goes down to 70 and 80 below zero, they do not allow anyone to ge. out upon a Ing trip and take whlskey with him. If man is met on the trail and it is ascertained he has wh1s- key with him it is taken away from him and the bottles broken. They do not do that out of any feeling o1 kindliness toward him particular ly, but they have found, and from experience, that it is necessary to do so, for the reason that under the influence of liquor man on tn trail take chances that he other wise would not take. If his feet or hands become frozen, the whole expedition is tied up taking care of him. So they go right through his pack and if he has whiskey or alcohol they take it away from him and break the bottle"
 Other views of the Oregon Bena- tor, who is a physician are not exactly on this same subject.
 "I do not think alcohol is dir ect cause of large proportion of insanity" he says "I do not think that large tables of statistics if carefully analysed will show that it is the old alcohlic, the chonic drunk, who, as a rule. goes insane. He becomes a hobo; he becomes nuisance; he is the cause of misery to his children, he makes his wife unhappy and is the cause of his children not having enough to eat and to wear; he may become shatter ed physically but, as a rule, he does not go insane. After he quits drink ing, as a rule he resumes his nor nal mental condition and lives along without becoming insane. l do not think much of statistics which try to stow that he furnishes

One of the surprises is the tax on
hats which will affect principally
ladies' millinery imported from
Paris, mems hats being made up al
most wholly from materials import
ed.
The tax on petrol Is likely to de-
crease the earning capacity of taxi
cabs whose fares are regulated by the
Home Office, and may cause a revis-
ion in fares of the various notorious
companies
AS far as the Stock Exchange Is
concerned gratitude was expressed
that the increase was not greater,
but it is at the same time recognized
that investment business which Is at
low ebb at present will probably
decrease, especially in those CONNER
cial undertakings which were bought
in anticipation of increased divi-
dends but which will not be subject
to special war tax on profits.
The new method proposed by the
4 Chancellor of the Exchequer for de-
Quoting income tax from the inter-
est paid by bankers on current and
deposit account is minor matter
when compared with the larger in
terests involved in the budget, but,
according to a banker writing in the
| financial papers, 1t creates difficult
ties. Broadly speaking current ac-
counts do not carry interest in Lon
don while they do in many provin-
cial districts; but even in London
there are exceptions to this rule
notably in the case of accounts OF
foreign banks on which interest is
usually followed, they, in their turn
reciprocating on amounts left with
them. The withdrawal of balances
rraintained in London might (and
as it is possible that they amount to
many millions) probably would ad-
yersely affect the exchanges. IL will
therefore be a matter for serious re-
gret if the new regulations should
detrimentally affect the conditions
rIder which the balances in ques-
tion are held in this country. Such
a result would be another blow al
the supremacy of London in finance
The same banker sees in the new
tax or the collection thereof a ser.
ious increase in work for both 1nlanf
Revenue authorities and the already
depleted staff of the banks.

it seem a question If the Serbians
