POINT OF IMPORTANCE DISCUSSED.

Of all the various issues before the people are of such
 importance to the First division the necessity for the ance of all political intercourse with the other divisions Els pecay from the Second and Fourth divisions Reasons for the step mention separately The breaking away it from the other divisions the conten ton o the Pogressvener for year more and but for
 few instances, have had very little support until today commumcaton received which the writer undis- pucd facts that the may well heed that they may elect mon with the courage of their convcon who will support the The communication follows:
 About the close of the legislative session of 1915 much was being said relative to division of the territory of Alaska yet nothing has been done looking the accomphemen of that desirable end in the meantime Have the people of this division forgotten their treatment at the hands of Second and Fourth divisions with particular reference the division o the forestry money? The people of southeastern Alaska will surely remember that of the than $60OOO due and and belonging to the First division from this fund the and Fourth divisions, neither of which had shadow right the money, each grabbed one-fourth of it.
 Contemplate, if you wiI the of license an,I tax moneys paid into the territorial treasury annually and then again, contemplate if you w how little of this money comes from the Second and Fourth divisions And yet the represen aon n the legislature from those two divisions is equal to that of the First and Third from which nearly all the expenses of the territorial government is derived Of the Second and Fourth will oppose territorial division. Certainly they would oppose such measure for they would then have
 themselves for maintenance. Under the present plan of gov the First and Third divisions pay the fiddler while the Second and Fourth do the dancng and will continue until such time the congress shall fit grant scpara ton of the two sections.
 There appears every why such separation should be granted and without unnecessary delay. The two sections have nothmg have nothing in politically, nothing financially socially, and very little in commercial y We compelled shoulder the financial burden of gov enmen while the people of the interior look with compa cency, and will continue until the territory divided
 This is question worthy the serious consideration of every voter and should not be lost sight of in present DO tica sufIe.

FEW PERTINENT REMARKS.

Now that the vote wet dry has gone how go ing to make this territory arid?
 It is strange, but is nevertheless fact that when voted dry wet just giving opinion.
 The territorial legislature passed the for a the liquor subject but the territorial legislature has power 10 make this territory dry than you or I.
 What more; there judge in the territory with this power to say that Alaska must dry judge is merely administrator of the laws he is not law maker and when appointvc judge becomes law maker il is time to quit the country
 This is argument for dry wet It just an attempt to draw the mind to the real status of this question:
 Of course Alaska has stated in unmstakabe terms that it wants to be dry and congress will probably take of the fact but until congress- the machinery of the people, acts there is no dry law in Alaska.
 federal judge can refuse liquor license for He refuse all licenses not and take the place of congress any other legislature by putting all saloons of business Seward Gateway.

Maybe l am not putting this exactly clear" she went on. Swimming above the world is a more truthful phrase. As l look back upon the first year when Jack and I were married, we dwelt not l on this earth, but above it. If I may be permitted to rhapsodize, we knew such joy as the angels know, as heaven was so near, because we dwelt in what the novelists used to call the realm of
 romance. All the days were not alike, of course; that would have been monoto-
 nous, but that was the chief charm of the enchanted state we were in. We were desperately in love with each other. and yet Wa were comparative strangers. Jack saw fn me a wonderful creature, fashioned of moonlight and his dreams; to me he was the knight of my dreams
 and my little playing at housekeeping
 for him, was only glorified sort of ealty of everything I'd hoped and wished
 for"
 There were times, of course, when we
 dropped out of this enchanted realm ,
 she said, 'and came scudding down to
 earth hitting it with a dull thud. Of
 course the makings-up were beautiful and
 each one seemed to draw us closer to-
 gether than the other.'
 ''The thuds that brought us down were
 frequently very commonplace" the wom-
 an said reminiscently. "One I recall was
 all because of the merest little everyday
 incident when Jack walked sn to dinner
 one evening bringing with him a guest, W I ho6 SI,a,l oxI after he left that morning. and as he cidn't phone me that he was bringing
 anyb body home with him, naturally he
 didn't know the conditions. I was awfully
 cut up because he hadn't let me know
 and I was tired and the dinner was
 poorly cooked and I sat through it
 wretched and angry with Jack, because of his Reconsideration of me. The friend
 who had heard so much of Jacks wife from Jack, I feel sure went away with a most uncomplimentary opinion of me
 a poor housekeeper and a woman with a temper"
 "Oh, the temper was there, all right she laughingly said, "and I used it to advantage with Jack after our guest had departed. I upbraided him for bringing any one in to dine with us without letting me know, and he said he didn't think I'd mind, and of course he didn't know about the maid, and then turned on me and declared he had never known that I had this ugly side to my nature. He said he thought I was miles above all other women and
 that nothing could upset or rattle me and make me behave as I had In other words, he said I had failed to play my part. l had sat and glared at him at the table, looked glum and grouchy and made prim speeches and

of happiness is the cessation from pain and misfortune.' There's much truth in that.
 Now, if you asked Jack what his idea of marital happiness is,'' she laugh inGly said, "I m sure it would be very different from mine. He often declares that he wouldn't go through that first year again for worlds, because it was so bewildering and so disconcerting. He didn't know women at all, he says, and that he couldn't for the life of him un- derstand how any man could be happy when he's never sure that his wife isn't on the verge of tears. While he still laughs at me because I confess that I was afraid of losing him during those first 12 months, adding that I was like Sister Anne in the Tower, who mentally watched afar off for the first sign that might give her tears that were justified that he never felt any of those qualms, for he was perfectly sure of me, knowing that I was interested in only one man himself. What do you think of that for conceit? So, when I say that the first year of our married life was our happiest, Jack laughs and says that he cannot un-

 "Of course, I nearly died" the poor little bit of femininess said, patheti-
 cally, "and l fell all over myself try ing to make up to Jack, to win back
 his good opinion of me and while I did so, I noticed that not once did he ever
 bring a guest home unexpectedly without notifying me. l was glad of that, of course, but I never felt that Jack thinks I'm above other women as he used to-
 All this happened during the first year of our marriage" she related, and yet I look back upon 1t as the sweetest and the most precious period
 of my existence, because then we hadn't settled down.. I didn't want to settle down. wanted to live on in the clouds and have a tinge of romance at least about us, but l suppose people get used to each other and begin to get analyt- ical and particular and Jack was begin- ming to arrive at conclusions by the time we had been married two years He had figured out that every woman has to have some sort of emotional
 storm every now and then, and he in- dulged me in these affairs. After found myself deprived of the joy of making up with him, I gradually cooled down myself and the emotional disturbances became less and less frequent

 Life isn't a play place." she said, thoughtfully. That was what l consid- cred it when Jack and I started out. imagined life would be only love and rose of love is-thorns! We women must take the roses for granted When you ask me the happiest period of my married lfe I say the first year-and l mean it, because I believe we are happiest when we are trying hardest to conquer cOndi- tions and to overcome. The real se cret of love is service, and sacrifice is the breath of life to the woman who loves her husband and her children. In what my former assertion that my first year of married lifA was the happiest; what I mean is, that it was the most irresponsible the most bissful; yet the last four years have shown me such an- other phase of happiness that the two cannot be compared. In that time Jack had ups and downs; I've had to face death almost with my children; I've had to be cook, nurse, laundress and maid all at the same time. I've had no time to be thinking of romance and foolish ness, and I am inclined to agree with the wise person who said, The highest form

 The wife considered a long time and finally said this in reply:
 "A woman's and mans idea of marital happiness are the antipodes. The two sexes haven't the same definition of the term.

tition was addressed to the King, ask ing protection, John refused to sign it..
 Before 1889 John settled in New Haven, and then went to Southold, Long Island. Later still he settled in New York state, at Rye. He was one of the first proprietors there of Apawqua- mus, or Budd's Neck, which he pur- chased of the Indians.
 John married Kathlene Browne, like himself of good family. Their two sons were John and Joseph. Joseph. of the second generation in America inherited Budd's Neck from his father, and in 1895 petitioned for a patent, which, in 1720, was granted to him.
 Thomas. the third of the three brothers, who founded the Budd fam fly in America, was, according to tradi- tion a minister among the Friends therefore, he found England uncomfort- able. Just when he came to America is uncertain. But his son, Thomas, came in 66S, and settled at Burling ton, N. J. He returned to London, and in 1878 came back again to the United States with his brothers, James (who died unmarried), and William and John and their families-a party of about 25 in all These numerous Budds were energetic and hard working, and they made success of their settlement in this country.

 The name, Rogers, is from the first name, Roger, derived from Teutonic source. It means fame.
 The arms are those of James of New London, Conn., They are described: Ar gent, a chevron between three bucks trippant sable. The crest is a buck as in the arms. The motto is: "Ad astra per aspera"

 Apparently it is fact. the tradi- tional establishing of the American Budd family. John, Joseph and Thomas Budd early in the seventeenth century, left the old world behind them and sailed to the west. NeAl
 Joseph and John came to America about 1892. John, it is supposed, was born about 1900. His father, it is said had married a granddaughter of one Of the English Kings, so John was himself distantly related to King Charles I, who reigned in England when John and his brothers left there.

Maine Boys on BOr-
der Receive Their Pay

The I'd Maine Infantry boys now in
Texas are undoubtedly in far better
spirits than they have been, for, &C
cording to word received through the
Laredo papers they have received the
government pay which they have been
awaiting with more or less patience
The Laredo Times says:
1.-THE militia forces of the states Of
Maine, Missouri and New Hampshire
stationed in Laredo are being paid off
and when all the men shall have re-
ceived their quota Of the glittering
spondulacs it is safe to say that al
most a quarter Of a million dollars will
have been expended here by Uncle
Sam. The militiamen are being paid
for a period of one month and u days
each and there are approximately 5000
men to be paid off here, besides those
in outlying districts who are at pres
ent detached from their stations here.
This payroll of the National
Guardsmen Of the federal army repre-
sents the largest ever made in Laredo,
a. at this time the number of soldiery
stationed within the confines of this
military zone is the largest ever as
semhIed hereabouts. The paying off OF
the militiamen started yesterday aft
ernoon and was resumed this morning,
as it is some task to pay off a large
force like that now stationed in this
city.
ESTIMATING that at least three
fourths of the money paid privates and
commissioned officers and many
of the commissioned officers will be
sent back to their families, and that
the other fourth will be spent here in
Laredo. at least 100000 will be put into
circulation in Laredo, and this, in addi-
ton to the amount expended for main
tenance of the force by the quarter
masters department Of the militia.
Thus it will be readily seen that the
militiamen now in Laredo are putting
much money in circulation and con-
tributing to a great extent to the pros
perity that is generally apparent on
every hand here"
