to the grower. This grass is planted
in rows, and cultivated two or three

the popularity of sudan grass is that
it grows readily even in the ,driest

The keok- tux. which is in charge of Tony Mich ols. has been out since August 21. It is reported that the latter vessel laid over a day and night at Teller but nothing has been heard from her since. Considerable uneasiness is felt for the safety of both vessels owing to the stormy weather prevailing along the coast for some time. The owners of the Sea Wolf further report that the vessel had not sufficient food sup plies aboard to last for such lengthy period. In the event of the two ves- sels not appearing within a short time efforts will be made by the owners to have the Bear make a search along the upper coast.

SULzER MAKES POOR IMPRESSION AT
 FAIRBANKS
Pacific News Service.

Pacific News Service.
 FAIRBANKS, Sept 1o.-Senator Charles Sulzor. democratic candidate for delegate, spoke before fair sized audience here last night but made a poor impression.
 The talk of the democratic candi- date was egotistical throughout and contained no hint of proposals for constructive legislation in the event that he secures tho honor of repre- senting the people in congress.
 The speech was largely confined to generalities and failed to convince the people of Fairbanks.
 Public sentiment today indicates de- cisively that Fairbanks will give Wickersham majority of three to one.
 Senator Sulzer expects to leave for the Icoast Tuesday to continue his campaign in the southern sections.
 (Note)-The text of above message was received from the Fairbanks Times, a publication which. if not a supporter of the opposition candidate, is at least sympathetic.

 The reports that the Mexican com missioners are seeking a loan for the CarranZa government from Wall street continue to persist though no definite confirmation has so far been obtained.
 It is believed, however, by many in close touch with Mexican affairs. The de facto government is known to have been in financial difficulties for some time owing to the generally disorgan- ized state of the country and the in- ability to collect tax assessments suf- fcient to support the government.

Hebrew Unions hnnroroe Sympathy
 witt S,r ke


 NEW YORK, Seot. 1 -J. Fine stone, secretary of the Hebrew Trades Union announced this afternoon that two hundred thousand members of the union are ready to strike in sym pathy with the car men.
 So far the Central Federated Unions have taken no public action toward calling general strike but it is be- lieyed that there is some understand ing existing with the carmen which may ultimately result in the various crafts represented going out on a sympathetic strike.
 Rioting continued at intervals dur 1 ing the day but no one has been ser iously hurt so far as reported A large mob of strikers and their sym pathiers stoned north and south bound ears on the Third avenue surface sys- tenn at noon today but beyond break 1 ing a few windows no damage was done. Samuel Gompers, of the Am erican Federation of Labor arrived this morning and is endeayoring tt the threatened state of affairs Gov. ernor Whitman announced that ht will call out the militia if it becomes necessary.

inteFndtlOnal TNeWS ScFViCSs
 NEW YORK, Sept. 9.-Many indi- cations suggest that New York may soon be the center of one of the great est industrial strikes that has occur red in the history of the nation in the event that the present strike of street ear men is not settled within brief period.
 The most significant evidence of this possibility is contained in the an- nouncement that the New York off eials of the General Federated Labor unions will meet with the Amalgamat- ed Association of Street Railway em- ployes to discuss the calling of q gen eral strike of all industries in order to help enforce the demands of the striking carmen.
 As the Federated union is compos- ed of virtually all labor organizations of the metropolitan district, the possi- bility that they may fall in with the wishes of the carmen is creating gen eral alarm.
 Reports from Washington state that Secretary of Labor Wilson is keeping a close watch on the situation and may come to New York in the event of the situation becoming serious.
