yourself.

In Shinytown the people cling to their belief that in the spring all men should rise, and clean up alley, yard and lawn, till every sign of trash is gone-which scheme is very wise. In Shinytown they burn old hats and sticks and rags and bones and cats and kindred trash; all lahor for the public veal with fifty-s'ver kinds of zeal and not alone for ca 'h. This town is in class unknown; and flies and germs are quite unknown, year after year; no doctors joints therein are built, and all the fell dls- eases wilt when they come near. As there are no diseases nigh, the people don't know how to die; death seems a joke; and some one has to shoot them down when they are tired or Shinytown, and wish to croa@. The village used to have hearse before it killed the microbe curse, long, long ago: but now, since microbes cause no fuss, they use it for jitney bus five cents a throw. This is tho vll- lage of delight, where all the folks are. living right, a cheerful scene: your burg might be like Shinytowh if all the men would buckle dowc end make it clean.-Walt Mason.

DO TIT NOW.

If the people of Valdez cannot now get together under the newly elected council; if they cannot work togeth- CT for the upu..-uing of the town and the prosperity of the community, then the quicker the city goes to the ,..-l44l,1on bow-wows the better it will be for all concerned.
 In Valdez, perhaps more than in any other of the coast towns, good ly proportion of the people are those who helped to organize the town; who have lived here since was a small settlement, and their pride in it's achievement should be their strongest sentiment.
 Men and women who are banded together in fraternal organizations, and there are a number in Valdez, work together for the welfare of the order and it's individual members, and there is not the slightest reason why the people of this town could not get together and work for the community. Let self-interest be laid aside and the good of the community alone considered.
 If a project to open mine, estab- fish a factory, or promote an indus try of any character is brought out. boost for it and boost hard. The man who starts it may make some money; let him, and you will get your share. The town cannot grow and be prosperous without you get ting your portion and the more pros porous the town the greater your part will be. If you have project of your own, spring it and ask the people to boost for you. If they are interested in their own welfare they will work for yours.
 Now is the tlme to get together, forget past grievances and let us all work for Valdez.

 AMERICA FIRST

Says To Do This Country Must Be Prepared in Advance-Says He Must Not Be Nominated Unless the Country Accepts that Position.

OYSTER BAY, N. Y., April G. A delegation of leading Republicans called upon Col. Roosevelt this morn ing to discuss the political situation. During the visit the spokesman of the party, addressing the Colonel, said: We have made up our minds that we will have to nominate you"
 In reply to this statement Colonel Roosevelt replied in part: "Get it perfectly clear in your head that if you nominate me it must not be be- cause you thing it is in my interest, but because you think that it is in your interest and that of the Republi- can party; that it is because you think it is in the interest of both of us to place my name before the peo- pie as your candidate. But do not nominate me, if you expect me to pus- syfoot on any single issue I have raised"
 Continuing. MT. Roosevelt said that his slogan would be America First" Don't nominate me-" said he, "un- less you are prepared to take the po- sition that Uncle Sam is to be strong enough to defend his rights and the rights of every one of his people wherever they may be, and he can not be strong enough to do this un- less he prepares advance. l am not for war.

AULD IRELAND, MY HOME.

AUlO IRELAND, MY HOME. WHERE'S. a ship that rides at anchor in A harbor by the sea. Where the restless waves are dancing all
 the day. And seem to hear her calling. while she's
 beckoning to me, "Oh, I'm going back to Erin; como away! B. methinks that I'll be going with the setting of the sun, When she turns her prov again across the foam, For my pilgrim days are over. and my race is nearly run, And I'm longing for ould Ireland, my NH, love this Hand O freedom.'' and V I'll always point with pride To her bonny flag that floats so brave and free, And to save her as a nation some loved have fought and died And are up in heaven now awaiting me. And my heart is filled with sadness when think we'll have to part. For l thought no more my weary feet should roam, But cannot still the longing that is ever in my heart. So I'm going back to Ireland. my home!  ON the green banks of Killarney would V lay me down to rest, Near the humble little cot where 1 was born, Where the modest yellow primrose lifts aloft her smiling crest, And the snowy bloom is resting on the thorn. For I'm sure I'll sleep the sweeter when I'm laid beneath the sod If I know the little shamrock smiles above And bear upon my bosom when 1 go to meet my God That blessed little emblem of his love.

PRAISE WILL HELP.

If a man wishes to hold the love and respect of the woman he married he must show her consideration and sympathy. It requires just as much
 brain force, just as much hard work, to be a good home-maker as a man expends in the outside world. Some men fail to understand how dear lit tie acts of kindness and cons.~era- tion are to the hearts of their wives. The good wife struggles each day to cater to the husbands wishes and
 comfort, placing self in the back
 ground, and the husband possibly is grateful enough to refrain from criti- cism, but he allows her to take it all for granted that he appreciates all she does for him. What she needs is spoken words of praise; real appro- val shown in acts and words is an thing beautiful and very effective to
 be seen when we meet wife and mother rising superior to her domes- tic troubles and overcoming the petty trials encountered in every home and endeavoring to make that home cheerful and happy? And is it not likewise beautiful to see the husband lending every assistance in her work? There is found in these united homes an indulgence and repose that cannot be obtained elsewhere.-Ex Exchange.

If you were to walk into room and be told that in it there were seven million chances of catching a
 deadly disease, how long would you

 get out as quickly as you could. And vet according to bacteriologists one f1y may carry as many as seven mil lion germs on its feet. Typhoid and tuberculosis are the most comn.:n Of these germs. Now is the time to be- gin to swat the fly. Right today. Per haps you've noticed on these mild aft ernoons when the sun is bright that one or two buzzed their deadly song about your ears They're here. But there are only few now. Maybe there was only one in your home but did you swat It? Get out the swatter that you used last year and kill the flies before they multiply. The fly is born in filth. It can't be blamed then, because it carries a supply of bacteria constantly. Phy- sicians say every fly that escapes the swatter now means several millions equally evasive germ carrying insects in a month or so. To eliminate the househy effectively you must elimin- ate it early in the season, before. It has time to hatch eggs. Get your screens ready. Bar the fly from the house.

MARSEILLES MOUNTAIN
CANAL TUNNEL OPENED
French City Gains Direct Con-
uection with North Sea.

Marseilles. May :. The canal under
the mountain between Marseilles and
the River Rhone, one of the most
notable engineering achievements OF
modern times. was officially opened
to-day. in the presence OF members
Of the Cabinet and other officials, IN.
GLIDING Marcel Sembat, Minister OF
Public Works; Etienne Clemente,'
Minister Of Commerce. and Joseph
Thierry, Under Secretary OF War.
Hitherto Marseilles, although
great port of entry for the Mediter-
ranean. has been walled in from cen
trail France by mountainous ridge
that sweeps entirely around the
northern side Of the city. The canal
pierces this barrier, running for hve
miles in tunnel under a mountain.
II thus links Marseilles with inland
cities, such as Lyons. Avignon and
Valcnce. and puts il in touch with
inland commerce along the Rhone. II
also gives Marscilles a direct water
connection with Havre and the North
Sea.
The canal and its tunnel have been
under discussion for nearly ono hun
bred years. but the actual work was
not begun until 1904 The total
length Of the canal is sixty miles,
and the fve-mile section under the
mountain is seventy-fve feet wide and
seventy feet high.

ILLEGAL ATTACK
Submarine Fired On I'M
peratOr When She Failed
to Heave To, u. S. Told.

Washington. May THE Austrian
government, through American Ambas-
sador Penfeld at Vienna, has given the
United States its version Of the attack
by one Of its submarines upon the Rus
sian bark Imperator, from which two
Americans, one Of them wounded, were
rescued. Austria denies that the yes
sci was fired upo without warning. as
was stated in an official report made to
the State Department by the American
I Consul at Barcelona. Spain. The de-
NAL came in response to an inquiry
made by Ambassador Penfeld, at the
direction Of Secretary Lansing.
1t was authoritatively stated tonight
that the United States would proceed
to establish the facts in the case. with
view of taking further action should
it be warranted
The Imperator. bound from Gulf
port, Miss. to Marseiles, encountered
an Austrian submarine on April II off
the Culumbrede Islands. Dispatches TO
the state Department said no warning
was given the vessel and that threc
shots we're fired, one taking effect
The vessel was reported to have been
set afire by the submarine.
The Americans aboard were Gustav
I Olson. whose father is bandmaster at
! Fort Warren, Boston, and A. Swennson,
who has relatives in Minneapolis.
Olson was wounded by shrapnel, and
was taken to a hospital at Barcelona.
The Austrian version Of the attack
says the submarine fired two warning
shots at the lmperator, which failed 10

went through the rigging. Then the
bark's crew put away in a boat and ap-
preached the submarine. A wounded
man in the boat was taken aboard the
submarine and given medical treat
ment. Later, the Austrian account
says, the submarine took the boat in
tow, and abandoned il only when near a
steamer.
The United States still has pending
with Austria negotiations over the case
of the American tank ship Petrolite. A
second note on this case is TO be dis
patched to Vienna soon. Il was TO have
been started on its way several weeks
ago, but was delayed because Of the
