Skilful Work.
Miss Nelson's prize-winning kite
was constructed of bamboo and silk
and weighed four ounces. The color
scheme was red, white and blue. This
ll-year-old miss worked a shield OF

square his absolute failure to take any
action whatever with his statements
that any nation that violates our es-
sential rights must be checked and
called to account by direct challenge
and resistance Never before in our
history has there been such ignoble
contrast between the words and the
deeds OF a chief executive"
The Railroad Strike.
The colonel stigmatized the presi-
dents settlement of the threatened
railroad strike as an act due partly
to fear and partly to hope of political
profit" He charged that Wilson
made up his mind in advance" and
did what he thought would enhance
his popularity. The speaker cited as
proof of his contention Mr.. Wilson
own words of September %: 81 learn
ed that the whole temper OF the legis-
lative bodies Of the United States
was in favor" of what one side an
nounced to be its contention. Mr..
Roosevelt said the president acted on
this premature judgment without III
vestigation and without knowledge"
Words against Deeds.
The speaker characterized the his
tory OF the democratic administration
as record wherein fine words" find
an ugly background in "ignoble
deeds" He urged all those who
thank God" because the country is
nor at war to remember that IAN
ounce OF performance outweighs a
ton of promise" He intimated that
the nation at some future date would
reap the results of Wilson's vacil-
lating" and "humiliating" policy.

Crank Compares
Wilson Platform
With Performance

Crawford, Neb., Sept. 30.-(Spe-
cial Telegram.)--A small but atten-
tive audience heard Hon. w. J. l..
Crank OF Denver lambast the Wilson
administration here last night, while
the crowd was composed mainly of
enthusiastic united republicans, there
was also a considerable sprinkling Of
democrats.
The speaker took up the democratic
campaign book of 1912 and showed
the fallacy Of that remarkable docu-
ment. He touched on their promises
OF trust busting, reduction of the
high cost of living, Wilson's one
term plank, etc, and showed the in
consistency and insincerity Of the
democratic party. He quoted from
the Congressional Records tn e
speeches OF Champ Clark, Senator
Tillman and others on the Panama
canal toll bill. He condemned the
Wilson Mexican policy and tore into
shreds his "Watchful Waiting" policy.
While the speaker did not touch
on the Adamson law regarding the
eight-hour day, he did quote from
number of labor papers of 1910
wherein they praised Mr.. Hughes for
his stand in the interests OF labor.
The enthusiasm manifested here was
in marked contrast to the reception
rendered Senator Hitchcock by the
democrats earlier in the week. The
republican outlook is exceedingly
bright.

 "Soward IS good town and will be better In two years; Cordoya Is booming; Anchorage is good and will be for the next two years but Ju- neau Is the best of all" said Mr.. lLoussac.
 'i like Anchorage and am going to open branch there at once Prop erty there is selling from S5OOO to S11,OOO a lot, where they were bought for few dollars apiece at the time of the sale Rentals are enormous as everyone is trying to sell, which is natural and no one wants to rent.

 'Thero is lots of mining around Cooks Inlet and Anchorage will be the distributing point and headquat- CTS for the miners It will also have the railroad business and all os these win give 1t good substantial business foundation.
 Seward Is a little quiet right now, but it will be an excellent bus mess town in about two years. Cor dova is booming and will continue to do so as long as the price of cop per remains hign.'

FORMER ALASKA WARDEN
 RETURNS TO NORTH AGAIN

J. c. Tolman, resident of Alaska for twenty-seven years, bis game hunter. guide and prospector is a guest at the Northern after win ter spent in Arizona, says the Seat tie P.I. of April 10. Alr. Holman be- lleves in the climatic extremes of any calling for he put in most of his time in Arizona camping and hunt ing. and from Arizona he is going to Alaska for hunting among tho snowy peaks. "rhere is much dif' ference between the climate of the two places, but find that hunting skin is about the same wherever you go.7 said Tolman.
 Mr. Holman makes a speciality of Eastern sportsmen and says that he would rather take in this class than any other as they are less hard on the game. Mot that they don't get what they so after" he said rather they always do get their quarry. but as they are trophy hunters, they us. ually want some old bull moose with biz pair Of antlers whose death would come from old age within a year or SO anyway. Also they never ldll for the fun of killing. The mar ket hunters are the bane of Alaska game and unless the present laws are enforced the fields will be de- vastated. The railroad camps along the new government roads are es- pecially careless in the matter of obeying the game laws and the moose on the Kenai Peninsula will soon be extermlnated by meat hunters who sell to the construction camps if a halt Is not called"
 Mir. Holman was formerly senior game warden for Alaska. Mir. Tol- man was a passenger on the North western for Seward.
