Old Valentines.

Where are tho girls OF yesterday.
The gods-tpe dreams--the drifting snow
That Nlllon sang of-swept away
NV winds that through the ages blow
ON times swift stream they ebb and now.
Tossed In life's current--there and here.
Let them he gone--vc seek to know
Those sweet Old valentines NJ yesteryear
Where are those lacy missiNeS gay
Tina used to make girls nutter So
tn" things he wouldn't dare to say
In those dead days dcpartcd--siow
When by this sign each gallant beau
secretly spoke his love sincere:
Why must our cherished paintings go ,

GladN our s,autv coin Wei pay
For bleeding hearts with gore aglo,,
tlaspei hands that close ana trustful lay,
And little ,upids In a row
Meath frilly paper gates they show
Through perforated doors they peer.

 i2. The enactment of primary cleo ton laws for the purpose Of enabling the people by their votes to control their conventions and the nomination Of their officials without the corrupt manipulation Of political bosses.
 13. Continued opposition to the eff. forts of interested copper companies to secure the passage of bill in con gress for the appointment of 8 com mission to revise the United States mineral laws in Alaska: their purpose Is to take away from the territorial legislature of Alaska its power to al ter, amend or revise such laws in Alaska, and to disapprove and repeal all such laws heretofore passed by our legislature and rob it of all power , to legislate hereafter on that subject in Alaska. 1t is a scheme to extend to all mineral lands fin Alaska the principle of reservation and leasing by a government bureau in Washing ton. after the plan of the Alaska coal leasing law, which was drawn by Sec retary Lane, approved by MT. Clifford PinchOt. introduced by Congressman Ferris of Oklahoma, passed by a Democratic congress and signed by President Wilson. l shall oppose such reservation and leasing of placer and quartz mineral lands in Alaska. and favor the revision of such laws, when necessary, only by congress or by the Alaska legislature.

Finally, I shall support Hughes and Fairbanks, and the national Re publican platform, unless they or those representing them shall inter fere with the passage of needful and beneficial laws for Alaska, in which event I shall stand by Alaska and her interests, as I always have done, with | out regard to party threat or favor.

FIRST CANDIDATE TO
 ADDRESS coRDoVA AUDIENCE.

J. H. Cobb, of Juneau, independent candidate for attorney general ad- dressed meeting at Eagle Hall last night, which was presided over by Mayor H. 4. Slater As chief coun- sei for the territory, Mir Cobb ex- plained at some length the fight he had made in the courts to compel the fisheries of Alaska to pay a tax. as levied by the legislature, and that by being sustained in his contention by the circuit court of appeals. the territorial treasury would be enriched by many hundreds of thousands of dollars.
