NOME, ALASKA. AUGUST 21, 1916.

The old political idea of making up d platform and then selecting can didate 10 fit it does not appear to be working out very well in the present republican campaign. owing to the all together indeterminate attitude of candidate Hughes toward the larger features of the platform.
 Hughes has been on the stump for some time now but, if one may judge by the press reports relative To his campaign utteranees he has not said u word which may be accepted as clearly defining his position on any of the more important issues. All of which is apparently not d little dis eoncerting to the G. o . P's and also the public at large,
 Il appears very much as if the re- publcans have selected a candidate whose party record is all that could be desired and who, in every way, is fitted to be the party leader and the eXpounder of party doctorines but who, alas, refuses to preach the proper dope After having labored heroically to build platform that is model of political ingenuity, and filled with ap- pealing pledges to entice the dear voters, they find that their carefully selected candidate has very little to say about it. In fact Il appears very much as If their man is very much of an unknown quantity, even to them- selves.
 AS far as his utteranees on the sub ject of campaign issues show, he may be democratic or progressive as much as a republican. Except for the fact that he has always been a republican no one knows decisively up to the present, whether he is in accord with the party platform and party pledges or not. Hughes has not committed himself in any definite way, as far as the public is concerned. Beyond the bare statement that he favors womans suffrage and national preparedness, the republican candidate seems to have completely ignored the larger issues of the campaign as far as he has gone In his acceptance speech, he is reported To have said practically nothing relative to the policies he re- to how he stands on the paramount questions of the day. He has appar- ently dealt largely in generalities and devoted most of his time to damning and condemning the democratic way of doing things.
 This suggests, of course, that he would not do as they have done under like circumstance but as to what he would do himself he has seemingly said not word. Although he has been on the stump for some time, no one appears to know just where he stands on any of the larger questions that are just now agitating the public mind. Save for the statements that he favors preparedness and the vote for women and stands for a policy of 'undiluted Americanism," whatever that may mean, the pubic is complete ly in the dark as to what he repre- sents or his attitude toward the plat form on which he is supposed to stand.
 By inference we may judge that he Is in entire sympathy with the Chi cago platform and will carry out it's pledges as far as possible, but the public like very much to know more about the ideas of the man who as- pires to the highest office within their

doned. These facts were commented
on very generally at the annual ban
quet of the Silk Association Of
America held in New York. Barring
difficulties arising from dye shortage
and from the restriction in consump-
ton that may come from the very
high prices now ruling, all things
point to a continued large use Of the
premier textile fiber.
While New Jersey still holds first
place as a producing state. the
spread of the industry in Pennsylvania
in the last five years has been quite as
remarkable as the transplanting of the
cotton manufacturing industry in the
south was some years ago. Large
units of production are now devoted
to the manufacture of few popular
priced cloths, and the ready-to- wear
trade has been quick to make the most
CT new fabrics for dresses and waists.
Messalines and taffetas have made up
the larger volume of the output or
late and there is now noted very &C
tive demand for tussah silks in light
shades for spring and summer wear.
The imports of raw silk from Japan
during the current crop year reached
105, 900 bales, and the stocks of finished
fabrics in first hands are stated to be
the lightest known in recent seasons.
The very high prices asked for arti-
fetal silk have initiated against it's

W. c. Burnett and R. w. Lamson.
pure food representatives from Wash

Commissioner of Agriculture Guptill in
relation to The shipment of impure ice
cream into Maine from Massachusetts,.
Preliminary plans were made for CO.
operative action in the matter. About
So per cent. of the ice cream used in
this State is made in Massachusetts
and this applies to Aroostook county
as well as kennebec. 1t has develop
ed that in some of this Massachusetts
made ice cream what is known as
homogenized cream is used, that is. a
combina ton Of cream from unsaleable
milk with good cream, which is made
by fusing the two kinds of cream at
high degree Of heat in such manner
that it can only be detected by ex-

Girl and the Came" Others.

audrey is an adaptation of the
celebrated novel by Mary tombstone.
ir the stage version of which Maggie
Mitchell starred. Audrey" is a story
of the early nineteenth century which
is full of romance and contains great
deal of comedy and no little drama. |:
is the tale of a child who is saved from
the Indians by young Englishman
and placed in the care Of villainous
old hypocrite of a minister, who makes
a drudge of her. The Englishman re-
turns and startles the whole commun-

the ragged girl and taking her to the
governors ball.
There Audrey is srubbed by the 9TH

the attitude and denounces the whole
assemblage for it's snobbishness he is
promptly challenged to a duel. Audrey
saves his life; nor is this the only in

More HowIers.

The following answers were COM
piled by one Indiana teachers from
the papers of her pupils in an exami-
nation in physiology:
Digestion is the process Of taking
the food through the mouth until it
reaches the blood.
The saliva glands are in the walls
Of the stomac. They produce the Gas
trio Juice.
The stomac is a large organ, there
are to parts Of the stomen and are
round
The stomac is bag in between the
ribbs with spout running I'D to the
mouth.
Circulation is like the pipes in the
city when the pump stops there is not
any water
Circulation is blood going through
all parts of the blood.
Tonsils are in the nose, they are
there SO we can breathe
The mouth is where the food is taxi

Patriotism as q Cure.

A Paris newspaper notes a remark
able cure by no other medicamentum
or appliance than the mere exercise Of
patriotism. The charming wife Of a
minister Of one Of the great allied
powers was compelled, because Of a
physical weakness. to make use of an
apparatus to hold her head straight.
This apparatus, which had been
bought before the war, had begun to
deteriorate. The lady ordered a new
one of large house at her home.
When she received it she discovered
that it had come direct from Berlin.
With d fine sense of patriotic pro-
priety she hesitated as to what she
should do. Patriotism triumphed. She
could find no other apparatus and she
decided not to wear any. The result
was marvellous. BY force Of will and
auto suggestion she is now able to
carry her head as straight as any of
her friends wear theirs.

Feet of a Muskrat House
Latter Case Is Mol Pressed
and Respondent Is Fined S. on

By way of variety the business of the
Friday morning session of the NUM-

disposal of a case which had its origin
in an alleged violation of the game
laws of the state. There really were
two cases disposed of but they were
tried as one.
The respondent was William J.
Hickey of Gardiner and the warrant
which was sworn out against him by
Game Warden Bertrand Smith of Au
gusta, who is the newly appointed
chief game warden for Kennebec coun-
ty. charged him with using traps not
properly labelled with his name, and
also having set traps within less than
% feet of a muskrat house, in the
Cobbosseecontee stream. Hickey was
represented by Judg" VIII c. Atkins OF
Gardiner and entered "a plea Of not
guilty.
warden Smith stated to the court
that Hickey had admitted to him that
the traps found belonged 10 the re-
spondent. and Mrs. Elizabeth Hunt
