tism; and In s-'L others. weak. tired.
languid feelings and worse troubles.
It is responsible for rundown con
dit!ons, and Is the most common
cause of disease.

They feel well except just before the
first of April and the first Of Octob-
er, when taxes are due, and then
they have a marked chill saccompan-
led with some fever and often by
sweating. One of the chief things
the matter with city government is
the inadequate salaries OF the pub
lie officers. The work of mayor OF
Keokuk commands in private corpor-
ations five or ten times the salary
paid the mayor, and the way to get
the best men for any job is to pay
good salary for it.
at is impossible for city govern
ment in America to become hundred
per cent efficient. right and correct,
but the way to make it better is for
more good people to study what 1t
ought to be and especially how to
obtain what they want by unselfish
work for candidates who are good
candidates-and emphatically to learn
how to elect good men at the polls,
the primary polls being the most i'm
portant ones" the speaker said IN

"A recent story about little band of Indians starving on the remote set clement in the Kuskokwim valley, which lies 800 miles across the noun tains from Seward, caused some peo- pie to worry over the scarcity of food i'll Alaska. News of an eruption at Katmai is followed by a mental vision of Anchorage and Seward people flee ing for their lives"
 Many conceive Seward as the place where all things occur because a great many of the news stories from South western Alaska are carried under a Seward dateline. Seward is at the northwestern end of the United States army cable to Alaska and therefore is a concentration point for news over an immense area, extending 600 miles north, almost to the Yukon River and 1,6OO miles west to the end of the Aleutian Islands. This includes the great chain of volcanOs extending from Mount Redoubt, on Cooks inlet, to Bogoslof, the island in the Behring Sea that comes and goes between the eruptions. It also includes the great salmon canning area on Bristol Bay and Kodiak Island, the home of the largest bears now eXtant. It takes in the country around Mt. Mckinley, the Mataniska coal fields, the district af- fected by Karmai Volcano. By many, this place is considered the news cen ter of very remarkable section of the globe.

THE ROOSEVELT MOVE
 MENT IN ARIZONA

Arizona will have a com manding place in the recent ly organized Republican movement for the nomination of Colonel Roosevelt for the presidency. It was begun hardly month ago, after all the other candidates and ia vorite sons" had done all that was possible for them to do. It has been perfected now in forty states.
 This state will be actively represented in the movement by Hon. J. L.. Hubbell, as member of the executive com mittee of the organization, who left yesterday for Chica- go for that purpose. MT. Hubbell should be the most effective worker Arizona could send. His intimate and wide acquaintance with the national leaders of the Re- publican party, their knowl- edge of his representative re- lation to the Republicans o1 Arizona, cannot fail to inn press leaders who for one req son or another are now hos tile to Roosevelt.
 They will understand that Hubbell, whose work hither- to has been for the Republi- can party and not for the fur therance of the ambitions oi any member of the party, be- lives that the party can now best be served by the choice of Roosevelt as it's standard bearer.

FEAST IF WEEKS |S
 A JEWISH HOLIDAY

ShebuOth begins Tuesday evening
 June 9th and ends with the evening
 of the 7th (Siyan 6th). An additional
 second day is observed by the orthodox Jews, so that the holiday among them
 closes Thursday, June Sth. The festi-
 val of Shebuoth is designated as the Feast of Weeks because seven wekS intervene between the second day of Passover and the Feast of Weeks. It is calld also the Feast of the Harvest, for in Palestine it marked the con clusion of the gathering of the grain and of the bringing of the first fruits as an offering to the Temple. A re, miniscence of the agricultural charac- ter of Shebuoth fingers in the arbor decorations of the Synagog, and in the reading of the Book of Ruth, a classic idyl of country life.
 The Shebuoth Festival marks also the logical continuation of the Pass over. Passover signalizes Freedom, Shebuoth announces the supremacy of the Ten Commandments. Freedom is combined with Law. The one com pletes the other. Freedom has it's truest power in Law, and Law is at it's best with free men. The Jewish peo- pie has given to the world the first instance of Self femancipatiua. anG It has promulgated the most succient and effective truths as to Law and Or der. They constitute the greatest con. tribution to civilization. As part of the services in t'e Synagogue on th;s day special selection from Exodus XIX and XX-the revelation on Mt. Sinai, is read.
 Associated with the modern celebra- tion of Shebouth is the ceremony for the Confirmation of the children in the Synagog. It is an appropriate expres- sion on the part of the Jewish Com munity that it regards Law and social conduct as essentials of life, and that the moral life is not private concern, but rather a public obligation. In this sense the children today enter into the covenant" and community of Isra- el as their Fathers did at Mt. Sinai. The Confirmation Service is designed to impress them with the sanctities and responsibilities of Jewish manhood and Jewish womanhood. It is not only good but also necessary for a we'll rounded life to observe the pieties of the Fathers and to take part in the high causes and earnest efforts of the Jewish people. Shebuoth thus links the new generation to the old, and se- cures the continuity of Israel.
