 of Police.

SEATTLE, Oct. 4.-The Post-In- teligencer editOrially stated this morning that unless Mayor Gill and Chief of Police Rockingham could not do better than has been done in the waterfront riots they should resign immediately and that unless they did resign steps should be ta- ken by the people of the city to get rid of both of them.
 Riots on the waterfront. are al' most hourly occurrences, Monday afternoon 8 strike breakers were lnobbed by 15O strikers and although a squad of police was on duty at the Grand Trunk dock, where the riOting took place, not an arrest was made and no effort was made by the police to stop the trouble.
 Capt. A. s. Gibson, chief steve dore employer, also Capt. J. s, Gibson, manager of the Grand Trunk dock both protested to Chief of Police Rockingham over the ac- stiOns of the police in not preventing riots, and for their pains were told that the officers on the waterfront had been cOmplimented for the ex' cellent manner they had been quell' ing disturbances.
 The Post-Intelligencer also says editorially, the lawlessness on the waterfront has been the black eye of the city not only on the coast but throughout the United States.

LEADING REPUBLICAN,
 SENATOR HAS NO USE
 FOR ALAsKA'S DELEGATE

Delegate James Wickersham has admitted that he has no in- auence in the United States Sem ate on account of the opposition to him of Senator Knute Nelson, The senior Republican member Of the committee on Territories. and the Senator who will probably be the chairman og the Senate com mittee on Territories in the event of Republican success in the United States.
 All Alaska legislation has to mass the Senate as we'll as the House. therefore Alaska should have a Delegate who has infiu- ence in the Senate.
 It is true that most of the im- portant legislation secured for Alaska has come through the senate. but that is because oth- CTS than Delegate Wickersham have been responsible for the leg lslation.

Dear Social Corner Shsters:-NIay The Corner be well represented at the coming meeting on the Sth. It is a great pleasure to be able to greet you all on this our 9th anniversary. At the same time it is very sad to think two of our Sisters here passed away since our last anniversary. We do not know. who will be the next one called home.

 Locking back upon the time that has passed since l received the glad hand uf welcome, from the Sisters. I am pleased tp say I have found great pleasure and comfort, in the Social Corner letters. also valuable informa- ton. lf l have been any help to the writers. or readers, I am very thank ful.
 I know we all appreciate the kind ness 5t ai The Bulletin staff and cln- .ut say enough in their praise. l hope the coming year may be a prosperous and happy one for all. and that OUT C..cia may uot be broken l during tlp ,n;--c year

THE GARDEN.
 No. 6.

Editor Social Corner:-Last but not least there are the stones in the gar den, the impediments which we lab oriously pile in heaps to be rid of; and yet the garden is composed of nine-tenths stons as loam is of S7 per cent. water. and without the minerals there would be no garden at all
 The minerals support the earth; earth the vegetation, vegetation the animal. and all three contribute to the well-being. prosperity and comfort of man.
 And where there are stones in the soil. as in New England, they temper the night air and keep the earth and the roots or feet of the plants warm.
 While in the Mississippi valley. near the mouth of the river by that name, the absence of stones makes the nights and the soil much cooler.
 The garden is the place where the worker may not expend his energy in vain, and where he should not be un- conscious of Gods beauty. The sun shines for him, the trees and the heavens give him succoring shade and the mellow earth brings forth fruit and vegetables after their kind.
 And your garden was thousands of years in the making under divine law before it was ready to be in use for man in his desire to work the land and improve his conditions. JOSEPH DOE.

WHAT ABOUT SPRING HATS?

Dear Social Corner Friends:-Before we invest in really new spring hat there is a between period rather hard to fill. Why not get over this by do- ing up our old hats? A little economy might enable us to buy something bet ter later.
 Here are some suggestions:
 To clean a white felt hat fiji an earthen jar with flour and put it in the oven until quite hot then quickly with white flannel rub the flour into the felt thoroughly, and dust 1t off with a clean brush or white cloth. The hat will be like new
 White straw hats can be cleaned as follows: Warm a lemon, squeeze 1t in a saucer, add a teaspon of powdered sulphur. Brush this well on the hat rinse several times in cold water, wipe with a dry cloth and finally dry in the shade. This hat will be very nice.
 Black felt hats can be made quite nice if weIl-rubbed with benzine. Dry in the open air.
 Black chip hats only need oiling Use sweet oil and rub with a piece of black velvet.
 Artificial flowers may be restored in many cases, by holding them a couple of minutes in the steam of boiling water.
 Ribbons if good when bought can be washed in potato water. Rinse re- peatedly in tepid water, hang out to

the W. c. T. U. rooms on Valley street, for there came forth a sound like un- to the sWarming of bees in the spring.
 The camp ground correspondent was invited to be present. He entered bold ": "Oh, look. there's a man, greeted him on all sides. But once in there was no retreating, as there were ladies to the left, ladies to the right, to the south and north, and a few other directions. He had often read The Social Corner of The Bulletin, but never imagined for moment it was such a f1ourisning institution.
 Married & Happy came forward and put him at ease making him acquaint- ed with the ladies.
 Another thing which helped him to feel better was the sight of a large table in the center of the room fairly grooming under the weight of good things to eat.
 The Bulletin man played the piano while the camp ground man led the singing of the Doxology in which all joined.
 Then a sight worth going far to see opened to our vision. The company formed in line and passed around the table, taking a plate and fork from a side table, and helped themselves as they passed.
 The Germans with their Zeppelin raids in England never did do any SHCu udIL4dSS cts lIlOSe 1duIeS uIu IO that table.
 The Bulletin man as boy was pos sessed of a considerable appetite but he wasn't in 1t there. He and the other man enjoyed a most delicious meal of beans salad, sandwiches, pick les, pickled beets, coffee, sake of all descriptions and last but not least ice cream, the gift of The Bulletin com pany.
 Vases of yellow daffodils added l greatly to the appearance of the ta- ble. And sprigs of ferns and green plants from Potlatch of Seattle, Wash l lngton, were placed here and there on | the table.
 | There was a large basket full of | gifts made by the members, each gift not costing over ten cents, each one i receiving a gift. | Cakes were sent to the Bulletin peo- l pie in Norwich and the Willimantic man was remembered with a box o1 | delicious homemade candy. He | wishes to thank whoever made it, as he has a sweet tooth. One hundred and two ladies were present, twenty-one towns being rep resented.
 Seventeen came from Lebanon, en.
 toying a bob sled trip over.
 The hostesses were: Married anG Happy, chairman; Theoda, Wandering
 Jew, Maine Lover, Nokomis, Azelia Willing Helper.
 The Bulletin man extends his hearty
 thanks to everyone who helped make it such a delightful time, and HkC Oliver Twist wants more.'
