Have there been any sensational

yes" he said. "such men as John the
Baptist, Noah, Paul Peter, Gypsy
Smith, Sam Brown and Billy Sunday
were and are sensational preachers.
They have all served their purpose. In
communities where sensation was
needed they went and reused the PEG

end by telling other preachers how
they look to a layman,"

A sure way for a subscription agent to get shot would be for him [ to call at the City Store and solicit Donald Sinclair to subscribe for the F. I.
 Mr. Sinclair says tira: the report that he was boasting about being from the original one horse town was an outright fabrication. He says that he saw no reporter, and that the first time friends joshed him about the report he had no idea what they were talking about. MT. Sinclair says that his motto is Boost, don't knock" and de- clares that Wrangell is worthy of far more boosting than she re- ceiveS.
 "For instance, said MT. Sin clair, travelrng men have told me repeatedly that there IS no town in Alaska whose merchants are, as a whole. rated as high by Dun and Bradstreet as the merchants of Wrapgell.
 No particular harm may have been meant by the story that was purported to have come fl om me, but It was certaifIfy had form. Seattle derives more profit from the Alaska trade than any other outside city. And then for the P. Il. to show its Appreciation by making sport cf Alaskan towns is king piece of journalistic toolishness. :"
