Hughes Hurries West
For the Third Time

. AZ LII is not well IN the west lor tiie
EA republican party, notwithstand-
ing the roseate reports that Chairman
Wilcox has been giving out. A month
ago Mr.. Hughes seemed to have
firm hold upon certain states that are
now admitted at headquarters to be
doubtful. The nominee is starting on
his third western tour. Michigan, one
of the few states that Wilson did not
carry in 1912, is now in doubt, and Mr..
Hughes will make several speeches
there to try to stay the unmistakable
drift to the democratic ticket. Henry
Ford, until this campaign a stalwart
republican, is not only for Wilson,
but has pulled off his coat and is
working for him with all his might.
And Ford has large influence in Mich
igan.
Four years ago the vote in that
state stood: Wilson, 100000; Taft,
$4,000, and Roosevelt, 214,000. The
republicans had assumed that the
larger part of the progressive vote
would go to Hughes, but today it looks
different.
On this trip Mr.. Hughes will visit
besides Michigan, West Virginia, Ken
lucky, Missouri, Iowa, Nebraska and
South Dakota. West Virginia may be
debatable ground, although it is a
safe guess that it will go democratic.
Why Mr.. Hughes would waste time
in Kentucky and Missouri is hard to
understand. In Missouri, Wilson had
| a clear majority over Taft and Roose-
welt, and almost clear majority in
Kentucky.
| The democratic outlook is brighten
| ing day by day. The republicans have
lots of money for corruption purposes
many millions. But it is no longer
easy to buy votes IN preSloentlal
contest In state like New York the
independent vote holds the balance of
power and it is not purchasable.

Possible Flaw I'm
CamdidaGe's Character

MIR. HUGHES has been making a
GV0 strenuous effort to prove that
he is not human icicle'' ever since
he resigned from the supreme court
and became 400 per cent candi-
date" His friends have repeatedly
said that he is at heart a good fellow
and quite capable of contributing to
a genial hour.
No doubt Mr.. Hughes had succeed
ed in living down his previous repu-
tation for coldness, to certain ex-
tent, but short item published in the
newspapers the other day has again
placed him in an unfavorable light.
II was stated that he had returned to
visit his boyhood home for the first
time in forty-two years. During all
that time he successfully resisted the
call of the home place. He did not go
back and muse beside the old SWIM
min hole-if there was one. There
must have been. He did not visit the
scenes of his boyish exploits, where he
went bare-footed in the summer time
and played with other lads.
A feeling that is so strong in some
highly successful men that they jour-
ney every few years to the home OF
their boyhood, renew old acquaint-
ances and make donation of some
kind in memory of other days, had no
effect, apparently, on Mr.. Hughes.

is not apparent. This is, to be sure,
period when grandmothers affect
the tangos the hula-hula and the
whatnot, out 72 years, except in rare
cases that are worth studying, is a
time of life when the average woman
is ready to settle down.

WITH PIPES BESIDE HIM

London, Sept. Sd. r. Thomas,
secretary for West Auckland
and football referee, has received
letter from his brother, Private p.
Thomas, who is serving out in France
in which he says:
1--WE came here just after the boys
had made the first charge. II is n
terrible hole. A mixture of heavy
shells, gas and tear shells, drop
around you day after day.
"Our first job here was to bury
the poor lads from the North who
made the charge on this spot-Tyne-
side Scottish, Tyneside Irish, and
Northumberland. God knows they
had something to do. The Huns dug
themselves in thirty feet to forty feet
below the ground.
"These gallant regiments played
their part we'll. One piper buried
must have played his pipes right on
to the German lines. l buried his
pipes with him. Drawer men than
these never lived. We buried them
where they fell, and we were under
shell fire all the time"

TARIFF ON POTATOES is
MAIN CAMPAIGN ISSUE

Augusta, Me-, Sept. 3.-The issue
in the Maine campaign is potatoes

navy, preparedness, industrial invas-
ion, pork" and child labor-the pee
pie of the Pine Tree State want 10
hear about potatoes. Give us a
high tariff and keep out importation
from Canada" is their campaign cry.
Maine is a great potato-raising sec
ton. The farmers of Aroostook,
Androscoggin and Pisctatiquis can
raise tubers almost as big as water
melons, and with the tariff lifted to
the proper figure can get high price
for their product and keep the wolf
far, from the threshold.
Therefore, the eloquence expended
on the issues, which are of absorbing
interest in other parts of the nation.
are wasted in this state.

SECRET MILITARY MAPS
OF 4. s. STOLEN, FOUND

New York, Sept. 9.--The theft of
secret military maps of the United
States was said TO have been disclos-
ed tonight when federal agents who
recovered them confronted Herbert
Sauer, in Jail here, and accused him
of stealing them from coast guard
officers. The maps, it was said, were
recovered in rooming house in
Baltimore, where Sauer is said to
have lived.
Sauer, who claims to be the son
of a westphalian nobleman, was ar
rested here a few days ago in con-
nection with the mysterious death
of Mrs. Caroline Tiarks, 73 years
old.
Federal agents asserted tonight
that eight maps containing military
information about the waters around
the Aleutian Islands were found in
Baltimore. Mystery, they said, sur
rounded their disappearance, though
Sauer admitted he deserted from the
coast guard. A coast guard code
book stolen at the time the maps dis
appeared from the cutter Apache al
so were found in the rooming house,
according to the authorities.

MAGNET FOR JAPS
THOUSANDS BARRED FROM U.

COUNTRIES.

Toxic, Sept. 9.-With the gentle
mans agreement barring the way to
the United States, japanese immi-
grafton has been flowing in a grow
ing stream to South America and
has now reached large dimensions.
The Kiyo Maru of the Toxic Kisen
Kaisha service sailed from Yokoha-
ma with 931 steerage passengers
aboard, all of whom, except a very
few bound for Honolulu or San Fran
cisco, were booked for South Amer
lea.
The steamer also carried forty-five
Japanese girls on their way to South
America to become the brides OF
farmers who have settled there. They
were selected by marriage agency
out of 200 applicants. The fortu-
nate ones were the survivors o. a
strict examination into their physical
and mental condition and their eGu-
cation.
Brazi is most attractive to the ia
panese who find that they get profit
able opportunities there for land cul-
tivation. The japanese community
already numbers 1000, according to
reports reaching this country, and
they are as a rule prosperous and
,ontentel with their condition.

American made toys will be given to the young folks of Juneau this year by their parents and friends, according to the statements of local
 merchants and Santa Claus will also do the same. Everything in the line of toys on sale in the Juneau stores this year is American made, with the exception of some few sets of mechanical toys which were made in Germany and Austria and which were either held over from last year by the local merchants or were carried in stock by wholesalers in ] the States.
 German and Austrian made toys, which heretofore have nearly SUD- piled the markets of the world. are not being made now. or if they are they can not be secured. As a result the American manufacturers. have come to the front and have cut into the business at an astonishing rate. There is now no need to i'm. port toys from foreign countries. with the exception of few of the mechanical toys. such as railroads, small steam engines. water towers. and such. The American manufac- turers can not compete with the for eign products in this line because the workmen must be paid higher wages in this country
 Parker Brothers goods which con sist mostly of games, books, puzzles, and car games; Gibbs toys. Mason and Parker toys. Mclaughlin Broth CTS Books and card games. and Schoenbuts' wooden dolls and wood en toys of all kinds are among the leaders this year.
 The parents of the Juneau chil- dren will not lack for vast quan- uty of toys of all kinds to select from as the displays of toys in the local stores are as large or larger than in former years.

Mechanos, dolls. teddy bears, monkeys on sticks. books. games, dancing bears, wooden wagons and wooden toys of all kinds and in fact everything which has been in demand in this line in former years and many things which are new this year.
 The American manufacturers of toys have taken a rapid step for ward since the war started, Before the war they were barely breaking even on account of the competition1 from foreign countries. but now they have increased their capacity to a point where they can supply the markets of the world, and are doing so.
