SHIPPING FACES
 GAR SHORTAGE

WASHINGTON, Oct. 23 - Rail roads operating throughout the Un- tied 8 ates have been exonerated by the Interstats Commercs Board. They were called upon the carpet to apswer for the car shortage which is prevalent in all of the biz shipping centerB throughout the country.
 The Comm cree Board has authen' ticattd their claimB that the short age Is due 10 the overwhelming prosperity which, seems to have taken hold of certain districts In the Ulhed States. This biE swing of business has necessarily called for more ears.
 It is the 6elief of the railroad officials and the Commerce. Board that the situatioH will become more acute as the season. advances. Wheat is jumping sky high in price and dealers are anxious to move the big crops. With car short age already staring them in the face and this new demand for cars + will work hardship somewhere.

 The Allies were forced to give way in certain sections of the fir jug llne. They could not stand tA aw til batter and smash. Colun.1 aft. column were. thrown againS 7 the lines. Dead bodies were pile1 fifteen and twenty feet high in some places. Rapid fire guns from the Allied trenches could not m2w them down fast enough.

HICKMAN SURE
 OF ELECTION

J. F. Hickman, Republican can didate for Territorial senator Is Vis- itin; with the voters of this pre- cinct and waging 8 modest cam paign in his behalf. Mir. Heckman will leave tomorrow afternoon on the steamer Humboldt for aYisit in. Haines and way ports. He plans later cn to return and hold 8 pub lie meeting at which time he will address the voters in Skagway.
 Mir. Heckman has lived in Alas ka |cr thirty years. Twenty three of these years have been, spent in Ketchikan, where MT. HeckmaR has closely studied his business and the. conditions throughout Alaska. He comes before the voters of this precinct as a practical business man fully conYersant with the needs and ills of the Territorial govern ment. Ketchikan people are back ing him to the man. He will car ry his home town by anoVerWhelm- ing majority. What is true of his home town, will 10 doubt be true of other precincts in the First Di- vision. Filled with 8 sincerity of his purpose and an uncoRQuerable determination to be of service to the people who put him in office he comes before you and solicits comparison with any other candi- Ga- running for the office.
 The very first bill which l should introduce into the Territor- iaI body would be a Community pro. perty law" sair MT. Heckman when being interviewed by the Alaskan. The laws under which we are at present operating are old, antiquat- ed and do not recognize the rights of woman. It is necessary for man to make a win and will his property to his wife, the one who' in the majority of cases, Is just as responsible as the man for the accumulation of that property, un- der the present law, or she Will only get a dover interest upon the death of her husband. such laws belong 70 the musty law books Of the middle ages and not governing true progressive ALaskans who are always alert to see justice and fair play to every one," he further added.
 Another bill I would introduce woEld be a Relief Fund, SO that adequate money would always be OF naud to locate missing miners and navigators. l firmly believe in organized labor and further be- lievG that the Territory Bhouldi pass a law providing for a minimum wage. That wage should have to be a living wage or it would never get my vote," said MT. Heckman' Labor at the present time Is gross ly underpaid. Alaska's greatest asset is it's labor. When a gov ernmeut places proprietary inter ests above labor, it is not filling the purpose for which 1t was creat- ed. I am a supporter Of labor" Mir. Hickman has been hiring la boring mem for twenty five years and has only had trouble once dur ing that period SO there can be no question about his statements on the labor issues.
 Mir. Hickman came out sQuarely for additional delegates to repre- sent the people of Alaska at wash ingtou. He favors the dividing Of the Pan Handle from the rest Of Alaska and the giving immediately to this section full states rights.

CASH GUT '. IN FOREHEAD

Ed Manson, pioneer native of this district, lies in the White Pasa hosnjtal with ten stitches in his forehead and a bad bruise on the toD cf his head, as the result of an altercation with James Barry yesterday afternoon. He perhaps ewes h,= life more to circumstance than anything else. In ninety nine eases cut of a hundred such an ugly wound would have killed the person receiving it. MT. Barry is behind the big from bars at the Federal court house awaiting trial for the offense.
 The officers are reticent when it ccmes to giving out information on tho altercation. They are gath ering evidena which will be used at the trial and refusee to- make open statements. As much of the det~tl as can be gathered from ru- more and those who appeared on the scenn of aCtion shortly after 1t happened, formB the basis for the news.
 Mir. Mason it seems was in the district, where his cabin is located bacE of the White PasS club. MT. Barry was also in the district. It Is presumed that 8 quarrel arose between the two men and MT. Bar " either under the influence of H. Quor or crazed by anger struck Mr. Manson with blunt tnstrument which cut an ugly, brutal wound in his forehead. The cut extends from the crown of the forehead to the rim of his right eye. A piece of hone was also clipped. IA bruise on top of the head which necessitated the taking Of two stitches shows that he was struck more than once.
 Nick Hanson and James McCaul' it is understood, took the native to his shack and spread the alarm pr. Gable was summoned. After hurried examination Mir. Manson was removed to pr. Gabie's office and later to the hospital, where he is reported to be resting easily.
 The wounded man is more or less of a character in this city, IR the cally rush days he opened lodging house and made 8 fair 1v- iLg off of transient miners. His wife died a number of years ago in tIis city. Two children are now living al his home in Metlakahtla. MT. Manson joined Father Duncan when he migrated from British Col umbip ill 1887. He was one of the first natives to locate in Metla- kahtla
 James Barry has more or less of a shaded reputation in this city. A good fellow when he is himself but when under the in- Euence of John Barley Corn a bad one. He is at present under Q Hus- pended sentence which calls for his ostracism from this city. During the summer he got into trouble at the U. $. Lodging house. He was arraigned before Magistrats Abra' hams. In passing sentence MT. Abrahams talked very fatherly to Barry and told him that the best thing he could do was to clear from Skagway anl let Barley Corn alone This Barry promised to do.
 Commissioner RasmusoI is eX- pected to arrive here on the Mari posa and will then take up the case. In the meawhile MT. Bar " will be confined at the federal l nho'bI1{tipes MaPiS-

FORAGE is QUITE ESSENTIAL
Chickens Will Not Produce Economi-
caiIy Without Green Feed-Sow
Essex Rape or Oats.

Green pasture Is just as essential to
the chickens life process as it is to
the dairy or beef animal. OF course,
chickens can live without it, but they
will not produce economically without
some green stuff.
Now that all the wild vegetation is
killed or tough, A. P. Spencer, dig
trict agent for the University of Flor
ida extension division, suggests that
dwarf essex rape or oats be sown for
them. These two crops will make ex-
cellent forage for the chicks and will
supply pasture until spring crops can
be planted. Plant about half an acre
for every 100 chickens. The rape
should be sown at the rate of eight
pounds to the acre. Chicks can be
turned on 1t as soon as 1t is three
inches high.

PUTS BOYS COMFORT FIRST
Jersey Education Board Says That
Collars May Be Discarded
on Hot Days.

Trenton, N. -Schoolboys in New
Jersey need not wear collar in warm
weather and they may turn under the
neck bands of their shirtwaists. This
decision, reached by the state board
of education, put an end to the con-
troversy that has ragged since sum-
mer's bareback last September. and
also reverses the findings Of the state
commissioner of education
The case was that of Van Lear and
Robertson Turner, sons of Frank Y. l..
Turner Of Merchantville. During the
unreasonable weather last fall, the
boys, who are ten and thirteen years
old, respectively, were sent to school
without collars and with the neck
bands of their shirtwaists turned I'M
der. The teacher, Miss Sarah Rog-
ers, promptly sent them home. Their
mother refused to change their at
tire for several days, during which
time they were denied admission to
the school, although they reported
each morning.
Turner appealed to the Merchant
vile school board and then to the
state school commissioner, both Of
whom upheld the teachers action. In
reversing them the state board holds
that the teachers mandate was an
unreasonable and unwarranted exer
else of power.
