AMERICANS TALK TOO
NOISILY, SAYS EXPERT

The first outside meeting of the Teach
ers' Club of Washington was held in VIII
son Normal School yesterday to hear
Prof. John N. Clapp. secretary of the
committee on American speech, speak on
the Movement for Better Speech"
Many people talk better over the tele-
phone than at any other time" said DR..
Clapp.
Speech" he said, should be clear cut
and accurate, quick and' simple,
american speech is entirely made
quate, and it is not what 1t should be, -
he added. THE tone is indistinct and
there is too much noise in the American
manner of talking.
Superintendent of Schools Ernest L.
ThurstOn introduced the speaker. There
were nearly 30 members present.

WORTHY OF OUR SUPPORT.

In this issue both the Arthur Yates Memorial Hospitals report and the Ketchikan Lyceum's report appear, and the management of both are to be commended for the showing. The hos pita management in particular. That institu- tion is worthy of our best support and we do hope that the next report will show that the in- debtedness now existing will have been iquidat- ed To that end, all we need to do is to exert ourselves and by a little effort on everybody's part, the deficit will soon be cleared
 A we'll equipped hospital in Ketchikan is in- dispensable This fact is acknowledged by al yet it seems to be the most neglected institution that we have. deficit should not exist. On the contrary, we should have surplus. And if we were interested in the institution as much as it's managers and the Lyceum are, surplus we would have. The credit for the good showing is wholly due to them and the few generous do- nations, and not to the public at large.

gate to congress on the democratic ticket, the people have many good reasons to be pleased In the first place he is good man and as good men are scarce in the rank and file of the democrat ic party, when one is found, he is that much more approximation should be. He is like a pearl in a pile of rubbish, so to speak.
 Here is another point in his favor that should not be overlooked: It cannot be said that he ac- cepted the nomination with the understanding that should he be defeated, he shall be given a consolation prize. The senator is not after prizes Heretofore every aspirant to the posi- tion who ran in opposition to the present dele gate, knew before hand his fate, and never ac- cepted the nomination without the promise of his prize. In other words all of them attracted by the prize ahead picked up nerve enough to make the race-result, incompetency in office. Not so with the senator. He accepted the nom- ination not because he is looking for consola- tion prize, which shows his honesty of purpose.

THEIR JOB IS NOT COMPLETED.

It was on Saturday that telegraphic news told us that the good democrats of the territory sembled at Juneau and decapitated the national committeeman Immediately after his decapi- tation, he is reported to have made a speech in which he assured them of his undivided support. That was very nice of him. and all that; but he should have told them more. For instance; he should have told them that they had decapitat- ed the wrong man. If the information given us is accurate, he should have told them that he had only been a fgurehead and the "other fel- low" should have been decapitated instead.
 There are men who always work the wrong way about. Take the democratic convention at Juneau and the prohibition party, for instance. The latter instead of stopping the manufacture of liquor, the members want to close up the sa- looms in order to prevent the drinking habit. The former, instead of beheading the king, they they have accomplished their mission To us it is glaringly evident that the members of that convention failed to complete their job
