THE ANNUAL FAIR.

The annual Tanana Valley Fair of 1916 is now past and gone, sue. cessfully. as usual And the credit for it's success is undoubtedly due to the farmers of the vicinity of Fairbanks and to the efforts of the members of the executive board of the Fairbanks Commercial club. The displays were not nearly as large nor as numerous as have been those tf other years. but the quality ol the products shown, despite the fact that this was all off year with the ranchers il the matter of early planting. show that the longer the fields of this part of the coun- try are cultivated the better tin" results obtained
 one feature of the fair was the grain exhibit sent in by J. W. Neal, superintendent of the government experimental farm Most of the grain samples showed that the grain has fully matured, which means that the grains sowed in this climate are doing better every year. And that statement is corroborated by Mr Neal himself
 So it is very evident that the Panama Valley will some day be dotted with fields of waving grain At least it is hoped that more farmers will some day realize the agricultural possibilities here. And the annual Panama Valley Fair. at which the ranchers are given a chance to show just what can be raised here, undoubtedly stimulates interest

A CORONER'S NEGLECT.

X Fairbanks paper is criticising Marshal Erwin, of that place, ir language which would give the coro- neI job in any other city but Fairbanks. We believe ill a paper CT ticising an officials acts if such are committed in his official cApa- city, but when stream of vi upera tion is turned loose on a mans per sonal life it lowers the dignity of d newspaper and pollutes instead of purifying.
 The Star is of the opinion that the remains of the coroner at Fair banks should have furnished the undertaken a job long ago for not having already set" on Erwin. The only reason that the coroner gives for so woefully neglecting his duty is that the stench is so great that he could not get jury to serve iii the case-49th Star.

Now all of that has been done away with, and normal conditions obtain the same as before the tax was ordered.

 And think of th.s story Vita graphed, You know Vitagraph pro. ductions. You know the genius of ! Stuart Blackton and Albert F. Smith. the directors You know the scale on which they do things You know the Vitagraph resources and facilitief that arc at their command
 Imagine how they would handle the fire at sea, the earthquake. the attempted rescue, the charming love scenes on the tropical island the girl bathing in the sequestered pond, the arrival of the United States cruiser, the return to civilization.
 The Island of Regeneration" is a great film drama. It is the sec ond of the. Vltagraph Blue Ribbon features and these, as you know, productions Go and see this unique romance.
 The cast of characters for the play is as follows:
 Katherine Brenton. an ldealist, Edith Storey; John Charnock, Jra as a boy Bobby Connolly; John Carnock, Jr as a man, Antonio Mo reno; Valentine LangfOrd, in love with Katherine S Rankin Drew, John Charnock, ST, owner of the Nansemond.

Matthew Hale, of Massa

Matthew fdle, Ol massachusetts, M remarks that he fails to find in any of MT. Hughes speeches evidence that the candidate of the Old Guard is in real sympathy with the un- deriving economic ideals of the Pro gressive Party.H As MT Hale is acting chairman of the National Progressive Committee, his misgiv ings are likely to be heard rom later on in considerable detail, but what a ghastly smile must illumi nate the conferences of Messrs. PenrOse, Shoot, Crane and Cannon when they discover that one so high in the Progressive hierarchy regards them and their nominee and their economic ideals with Sus picion.
 Mr Hughes promises to stop eX- travagant appropriations by congress if he is elected President. MT. Hughes did not stop such appropria- tions when he was governor. His administration was the most eXtraVa gant that New York had then known And the governor of New York has a power that is not vested in the President. He can veto separate items in an appropriation bill, but the President must accept or re ject the bill as a whole.
