very vivid narration Mr.. Pratt told Of
the seductive influences at work
which underminder the moral and re-
ligious life of the Lot family and
brought all to misery and ruin. Mrs.
Lot gave up all the better things for
finery and social position. She was
a social climber and made Mr.. Lot
climb some, too. As result he got
away from all the better things that
were his from early childhood. He
gained wealth and position but lost
all influence SO that he commanded
no respect from men. His wife and
property went down in the avalanche
of destruction, while his daughters
spawned two tribes of crime loving.
God hating people. Such was the
elimination of life possible of great
things-it was the result of the Sc
ductive influence of woman whose
affections were set upon foolish
things. Not every bad man can de-
grade his wife, but every bad woman
can with great certainty guin her
husband. Mr.. Brison sang with much
feeling and inspired all present with
desire for better living. He will

The resolution calling for the retirement of the district at torney was passed at a meeting of the Democratic club of Valdez about ten days ago. It carried a preamble which stated that Spence has not identified himself with the Democratic party in Alaska, has associated and worked with the bitterest opponents of the organization, is not an Alaskan and Is in various way united for the position. The information received even goes the length of saying that Spence is incompetent.

SEATTLE. Nov. 1--The Alaska Steamship Company officials have de- cided to rechristen the big freighters recently purchased on the Atlantic coast for the Southwestern Alaska run, and will make them conform with the names given other freighters in the Alaska service.
 The Bennington will be named the Juneau and the Burlington will be rechristened the Valdez, making Ju- neau, Cordova, Valdez, Latouche and Seward, the principal Alaskan coast towns represented in the list. The officials also state that they have un- der contemplation the purchase of an- other big freighter early next spring to be named Ketchikan.

The smelter has recently been enlarged and its capacity increased so that several thousand tons of ore daily from Alaska can be treated in addition to the regular shipments of ores received from Pacific coast and British Columbia mines.

With the develop ment of the natural resources of the leTTIIOTy ne DelleNeu that tuS era or prosperity that we were all looking forward to would be realized
