AWAKENED RESPECT.

The United States is again on the
map of the world. and just now ocCu-
pies a position in the Iime-light.
For about two years the youngest
world power has been pursuing the
even tenor of its way, while the old
timers in the school OF large politics
and diplomacy have been haTing 4

institution. which has wrought destruc-
ton TO a great deal Of the decorative
shrubbery.
The struggle was sired by fear and
born by jealousy. The offspring has
become a contest of opposing forces Of
brute strength for tyrannical supre-
macy. The whole affair is an appall-
ing tragedy that parades down the
avenue OF Progress led BY a vanguard
Of sacrifice. sorrow and death. and sup
ported in the rear by a MANNED civil
zation.
And while the several factions on
the CORY field have each endeayored TO
hold their own. and appropriate what
ever occasion has offered, they have.
at the same time, each Unanswered to
maintain business relations with out
siders, especially the United States
And while the affray has been spuEred

American Eagle has SCARED sereaely

leaf or twig has been shipped from the

drew forth a scream OF dignified pro

turbed not the grandeur of the circ!InE
flight
But the leaves and twigs looked good
TO the predatory lusts OF the hard
pressed reapers Of the whirlwind. And
so long as the mere even toned voice
OF protest was the only manifestation
of resentment to unlawful encroaCh-
d. ments upon American rights their own
sense of honor was too weak TO check
the spurious desires.

either side; and Indiana must re- nam as fighting territory until the votes are counted. The Pro gressives-aided, 1t is said, by Democratic funds-are maintaining an organization in that state; but competent observers believe that from S5 to 90 per cent of the Moose will vote for Hughes and that rhe number who will support Wilson are negligible. Upon this basis, Indiana should go for Hughes and Fairbanks by nearly SO,OOO.
 The seventy-thirty diYisiog ap- piled to Kansas would give that state to the Republicans by the following figures: Republican, 24r,216; Democratic, 21S,162.
 Tn Maine the result would be: Republican, 72,SSS; Democratic, GG.O71.
 In Nebraska the figures should show: Republican, ~I13,756; Demo- cratic, 1l3,S2O. This is an other bair-line of demarcation - lu. tl:-re is no Bull Moose ticket in Nebraska this year; and while the contcs' will be hard one, the indications are that Hughes will carry the state.
 The same division of the Pro- gressiye vote in Ohio would pro duce figures for 1916 in this wise: Republican, 511,O3s; Democratic, 49>,Ga3.
 "I. is therefore, a fair assump- ton that, in addition to retaining the states which disclosed a clear Republican plurality in 1914 - and which assure a majority of the electoral college - the Republican ticket will this year gain Kansas Maine and Ohio without ques- tian aud secure for Hughes and Fairbanks a total of 326 out Of the E&1 votes in the electoral col lege-- with more than fighting chance to add the 23 votes of h. diana and Nebraska to thatnumber' making 349, or a majority of 167.
 Hughes will not be a minority President.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 1 - The federal circuit court of appeals has decided that the failure to record power of attorney in Alaska invali- dates title to mining claim.
 The particular case was a mining claim ill the shushanna or Chisana district, at the head of White river ill which Dan Sutherland is given title to the claim by the decision of the court.
 The claim was filed on by Suth- erland after It had been located by G. L. Gates who located it by power O. attorney from F.. w. Purdy, and the power of attorney was not recorded.

COURT MAKES DECISION
 IN MINING CASE

"All powers of attorney must be recorded.
 Otherwise a mining claim locat- ed by one is not legal.
 This phase of the law has been hotly argued in every mining camp in Alaska. Many contended that the law was not clear on the point. Others thought that a properly made cut power of attorney and witnessed would be- sufficient. Oc- casions have arisen in Alaska in the hills where men could not record powers Of attorney in time to get in on a new strike. However, the circuit court of appeals decides that it must be recorded"

A UNIQUE RECORD

Grateful testimony for Doan's Kidney Pills, published everywhere is of ltself convincing evidence of merit. Confirmed testimony forms still stronger eVidelce. Years ago, Mrs. Mason gratefully aclnnowl- edged the benefit derived from Doan's Kidney Pills. The state men. Is now confirmed-the proof more convincing. Cages of this kind are plentiful tn the work of Doan's Kidney Pills--the record is unique.
 Mrs. David Mason, 2715 East c St., Tacoma, Wash, says: T had a dull, heavy ache in my back and it was lame and weak. Severe headaches and dizzy spells were common. The kidney secretions passed too often and l always felt tired and worn out. Doan's Kid ney Pills rid me Of the trouble" Statement given Sept. 19, '13.)
 On November 5, 1915 Mrs. Ma son said: q have used Doan's Kidney Pills since last recommend ing them and have found them just as effective as in the past"
 Price soc, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remdey - get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same tha. Mrs. Mason has twice public ly recommended. Foster-Milburn Co.,, Props, Buffalo, N. Y.

Andrew Lang. in "Homer and the Epic" 1893, vigorous ly defended the "one author" theory, as opposed to the idea of Wolf that the famous poems were composed through ages by many different persons.-NeW York American.
