Among the interested listeners to
the Stars bulletins Tuesday night
was Ben Raysor. Ben was worse de-
luded over Marion county's vote than
any other man. He seems to have be-
lieved everything everybody told him.
He proclaimed before election that
Cats would carry thirty-one out of
Marion's thirty-three precincts, and
would have at least thousand ma
jority. He was specially confident of
q solid Cats vote in Mcintosh and an
almost solid vote in Fort Mccoy.
Well, Ben is mighty good fellow,
and if Cats will give him good, fat
Office it will be an act the Star will
highly approve.

brethren, let US feel betterl Have we
not had humiliation enough for the
time being? For three months the re-
publican spell-binders have been tell
ing US, as freely and frequently as
they dared, that we were disgraced
people, delinquent at home and de-
spised abroad. 1t was mostly lie,
but it has been rubbed In to beat the
truth. Now, either the chief factor
in our alleged disgrace has had notice
of dismissal, or he has had vote of
confidence and orders to go on. Either
way, for the very lands sake, let US
feel better and hold our heads little
higher. Whoever is elected, we have
a great part to play in the world, and
should make bold at once to play it,
and give due backing and more to
whomsoever is elected to lead US. If
the republicans are coming in, let US
hold them to the task of repairing
the injuries which they represent to
have bruised the honor of the nation.
If the democrats stay in LET US insist
that they justify their calling, and
their guidance of the Incompatible
mechanism which they are trusted to
steer.
Praise be, the weary job of electing
president is done, and we are out of
the doldrums and can make sail again
ard get somewhere. Who is chosen
matters less than we think. What
matters is the honor of the United
States. Whoever has been chosen its
guardian, let him look to his job.
The feeblest-looking episode of the
present administration has been Mex
leo. The colonel showed good judg-
ment when he picked it as the most
vulnerable point to attack, and he
shelled it good and plenty. If we are
to have change of government, no
outcome of it will be more interesting
than the effort of Hughes admins
tration to better the Wilson perform
ance down there. There is no visible
means of doing it but to go in and
take charge of the country, and to
that there will be just about as much
Discrimination on the part of the re-
publican voters as there is among
democrats.
It is possible that President Will
sons public declarations that he would
mot interfere with the medication of
Mexican troubles by revolution has
been an encouragement to Mexican
Ievil-doers, and that the coming in of
an administration here with a pro-
fessed purpose to do differently might
have a moral effect down there that
would make for abatement of mis-
chief.
But probably it wouldn't. Bandits
are not much subject to moral effect
and those in Mexico will probably
continue their activities until they are
cleaned up. If a republican admins
tration undertakes Systematically to
clean them up it will doubtless have
all there is of Mexico on its back in
short order, and no more than a divid-
ed backing for its efforts from its
partisans at home. In this matter as
in many others it would be consola-
ton and an entertainment to many
democrats to watch Mr.. Hughes eff
forts to rectify the mistake he has
charged against Mr.. Wilson.
Nevertheless, the country is fan
more concerned for the country than
I it is for either political party, and if
Mr.. Hughes gets chance at Mexico
whatever his methods are it will want
| to see them succeed.

ENJOYABLE SMOKER GIVEN
 BY MOOSE LODGE AT FLAT

At the conclusion of the regular meet ing of the Moose lodge at Flat City last Sunday night smoker was indulged in, during the course of which an excellent program was rendered. Abe Weiss and Billy Day, as a committee of two, were in charge of the program, and succeeded in gathering up an array of talent which was a surprise to all and brought forth story -tellers who, according to those pres ent, could interest any metropolitan audi ence. A quartet also had been organized, which rendered Ballads Queer of Mother Dear and Poor Old Dad in Debt"
 After two hours of hilarious storytelling and fun, lunch was served, "cafe chantant style" by Frank Stanley.
 The attendance was good, and everyone was so pleased with the smoker that an, other will take place soon if the expressed wishes of all present are consulted.

FOR MASK BALL
Preparations Complete and Prizes Apportioned for Big Event to Be Held on the Night of
 Lincoln's Birthday

Final arrangements have been made in detail for the mask ball to be given at A. B. hall next Saturday night Lincoln's birthday. From all indications there should be large attendance, as a great amount of interest has been created in the event, which probably will be the only event of the kind during the present winter season. In answer to 8 number of in qmrles, and as matter of general in formation pertaining to the ball. James Farrell, who is in charge of the arrange ments, says that an admission of $3 will be charged to all gentlemen maskers La dies will be admitted free An admission of $50 will be charged to gentlemen spec tators, which will include lunch but not dancing. All dancers must be masked un- til the award of prizes has been made Five judges will be selected in the hall to award the prizes-one from Discovery, two from Flat City and two from 1ditarod.
 The merchants have donated very gener ously in the matter of prizes, and the list is good one The prizes to be awarded are worthy the best efforts of the contest ants.
 The fact that one of the features of the occasion will be the introduction of the fox trot" is creating no little comment. Mir Farrell states that 1t will not be merely demonstration of the fox trot, but les son, and it is for everyone who cares to learn modern ballroom dancing Dancing has changed so in the last few years on the Outside, he says, that if one from here were to attend ball there he would be very much spectator, and that there IS no reason why anyone should be placed in such position when he has an opportu- nty to learn. Besides the fox trot Mir. Farrell will introduce at another date the lone step" the hesitation" and the "Maxixe"

FAIRBANKS UNIQUE PLAN TO RAISE CLASSIFICATION
 OF POSTOFFICE THIS YEAR
News Miner. Dec. 3ll

Because the receipts of the Fairbanks pcstoffice fell below the amount set by the department for second-class offices 1t was chased as third-class office. Now indications are that it will be placed in the second class, thanks to the tungsten industry of the Panama valley. The tung sten industry IS new one ln interior Alaska, and many wonder how 1t can put the office from third to second class.
 fact remains, however that the produc- ton of tungsten means this much to Far banks, and possibly more.
 Some months ago Charles Johnson dis covered tungsten on Tungsten hill, at the head of Gilmore creek. The prospector reported that the property was likely looking and he believed it would prove a valuable mine He came to town, short of available cash with which to work the property, and laid his proposition before George Ewers, well known Dome creek ,perator and formerly of Goldstream, and the latter immediately agreed to buy an interest The partnership was formed and with the new capital invested by Mir. Ewers together with his assistance, they started to develop the property.
 For more than four months now they have been opening up the ground and tracing the ledge, which has widened to fcur feet They have traced it to depth of fifty feet, and indications are that it con tinues deep into the ground, Just how much tungsten ore the property will yield cannot be stated now, but it will probably run into the hundreds and possibly into the thousands of tons.
 The Premus Chemical Company of Penn sylvania saw the accounts of the find and immediately took the matter up with Messrs Johnson and Ewers After ascer- taning the grade of the ore the company offered the operators S2,800 per ton for the concentrates and urged that the tung- I sten be shipped immediately. The oper- ators at once informed the company of the poor transportation facilities of Alaska and the great expense of moving freight in the summer, to say nothing of the win ter. Then the company suggested that owing to the high price to be paid it might be advisable to ship the ore by par eel post. That suggestion will mean that the Fairbanks postofice will go back to the second class.
 During the present winter the operators will have ready for shipment about fifty tons of concentrates. To ship this by ,arcel post will cost 12 cents per pound, or s240 per ton. In addition to that, there will be a slight cost for the careful bag ging of the ore in suitable sacks, so that t will cost approximately $250 per ton to ship out.
 But few if any stages that leave Fair banks for the coast have the weight limit of mail. From now until late spring the postoffice will be able to ship out large quantities of this ore every week, thereby assisting the operstors and raising the postoffice to the second class.

MYSTERIOUS DAWSONITE
 FAILS TO REVEAL IDENTITY

William Roman, singular character who has lived within the shadow of DaW- son seventeen years, and has family ties his friends believe which probably, Ii fully known, would identify him as member of the Norwegian nobility, passed away evening before last in St. Mary's hospital. Roman came to Dawson in 1898, and most of the time since had led an obscure and modest life as woodchopper, in cabin located on the high ridge overlooking Daw- son, between Dion and Sourdough gulches. He said little of his past to his friends, and cared little to be known to those in the outside world, and died without leav ing any addresses of relatives. However, from his remarks to friends some time ago, it is believed that he was from circles in close touch with the king of Norway, and perhaps was member of the nobility.
 Roman leaves practically no estate. He has son somewhere Outside, possibly on the Pacific coast In his conversation Ro- man told some friends of late of one mem Der of his family who endowed univer- sity in Norway, at which anyone bearing the name Roman was entitled to free edu- cation.
 Roman was about 50 years of age. He was taken down August l5 from a run down condition, and from a cold devel- oped stomach trouble, and finally pneu- monia, from which he died
 Roman also claimed to be the discoverer of the famous Engineer group of mines near Atln-Dawson News, Nov 19.
