GET TOGETHER.

Now that the election is over and things are quieting down, let's get to- gether and see what we can do toward mapping out our campaign for civic betterment for spring. Alaska will have one of the greatest infiuxes' of tourists in its history. We should be ready for them. Every man, woman and child should do their utmost to promote a feeling of good fellowship during the coming winter so that we may unanimously work for the up- building of our city.
 There can be no real reason why Valdez should be passed up by the horde. of homeseekers and tourists who contemplate visiting Alaska next year. Our city has as great natural advantages as any on the coast. Our people are as hospitable, and educa- tional advantages in this city are much better than in other towns.
 We believe that if our citizens reach out and grasp the opportunity now presented them to place Valdez on the map, that a few short years will see this place teeming with industrial activity.
 Let's get together.

LENA MORROW LEWIS BIG VUTE

Lena Morrow Lewis, the Socialist candidate for Delegate to Congress, will come out of the Territory with about 1900 votes. The fact that Mrs. Lewis lost the race detracts nothing from her splendid vote, She had two of the strongest opponents in the Ter ritory, and only for her strong per sonality and splendid campaign would have received a much smaller vote:
 Mrs. Lewis is a statesman of: rare ability, and if she had been elected would have given the Territory effi- cient service. The Socialist vote is to be reckoned with in the future by astute politicians, and will probably grow stronger from year to year.

NATIVES AT NENANA
 MAKE THEIR OWN LAWS

Fighting, intoxication and other kindred crimes among the natives of the interior must stop, according to the list of rules and regulations passed recently for the government of the native town of Nenana, by the natives themselves. The rules were passed recently at a meeting of the chiefs and head men of the. village. The natives maintain their own speci- Ial police force, with necessary courts and jails, and while the court may not be up to the regular standard of a white mans court. it is plenty good enough for the natives and its man. dates are religiously lived up to by them.
 A copy of the rules passed by the natives was received at the Govern or's office today and is as follows:
 No one shall gamble. Penalty $1O and ten days in jail. "'
 No one shall drink whiskey. Pen alty SIP and 12 days in jail or more
 No one shall sell or give away in toxicating drinks. Report offender to the United States Marshal. Penalty $15 and 15 days in jail.
 No one shall get fighting drunk. Report to the U. s. Marshal. Pen alty $2O and 20 days in jail or more. ; No one. shall fight with his wife. Penalty $8 and days in Jail.
 No one shall steal. Penalty $22 and 22 days in jail or more.
 nAKeep same old dl;law for day time.
 No one shall fight with his friend. Penalty SIS and Is days in jail or more.
 No one shall kill calf Moose. Pen- alty $25 and: 25 days in jail or more.
 No woman shall go down town after 6 o'clock in the evening.
 No little boy shall go down town by himself-Ex.

MARCH FOURTH ON SUNDAY.

It would be a. safe bet to wager that President Wilson will never be inaugurated on March 4, 1917. Not because he has not been elected, but because the fourth of March comes on Sunday, and it is not legal for the chief executive of the nation to take the oath of office on that day.
 This is the fourth time in the his tory of the country that inauguration day has come on Sunday, and Ruther- ford B. Hayes is the only president who took no chances and was inaugu- rated on the third. The three other presidents-elect took the oath of of flee on March fifth.

UNION CANDIDATE DEFEATED.

The defeat of Charles McCallum is conceded, and it is surprise to those union men who believe in placing a union man in office. All down the line Wickersham's adherents passed the word to knife McCallum, on ac- count of his being Secretary of the Union which endorsed Sulzer. And at the town of Anchorage, the town which advertises itself as union town, McCallum was mercilessly slaughtered by those who placed the Delegates halo above unionism.
 McCallum was crucifed by his own followers; he was turned down be- cause the Western Federation of Min CTS had the temerity to endorse a man and try to elect him. We believe MT. McCallum would have made a good official and regret exceedingly to see his defeat brought about by those who should above all others have sup ported him.
 AS further indication of the brand of unionism displayed by the Anchor age I. w. W.'s the eight-hour day, the sheet anchor of unionism, lacked but a few votes of being defeated in that town.
 The Western Federation of Miners should remember the treatment ac- corded their candidate bv the mem- bers of the Alaska union and the Frame e-Wickersham bunch. With the penchant they have displayed for feed ing from the public crib it will not be long until the score can be repaid with interest

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE -. --
 HOLDS HOUSING MEETING

The Chamber of Commerce held a very interesting meeting last evening when a number of matters of great importance were discussed and acted upon.
 Rev. Finn, who had formerly been connected with the Seattle Chamber of Commerce, advanced some original and unique methods for the purpose of advertising the town. It is pro- posed to publish small leaflets ire quently, stating briefly and concisely a few of our most attractive features. These leaflets will be inexpensive and should be effective as they may be placed in the offices of various trans portation companies in the states, where they will attract the attention of the travelling public.
 The ore exhibit sent by the Cham Der to the Northwest Land Products Exposition at Seattle, attracted vide spread attention and we have the as- surance that it will be placed in the permanent ore exhibit of the Alaska Bureau of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce, which place thousands of people visit annually. It is to be hoped that a larger and more com plete exhibit, which will more fitting ly represent our mineral resources, will be on display at the Exposition next year.

WHY WICK. LOST THE FOURTH.

The following article is not pub lshed with the intention of opening up old sores, nor for the purpose of keeping up the bitterness engendered by the late election, but to show how Wickersham's fight on the Road Com mission and the Valdez-Fairbanks trail lost him the Fourth Division. It was expected that he would carry this division by a large plurality, hut ev- cry mining camp and small precinct outside of the. city, where roads and trails are needed, piled up a tremen- dous vote for Sulzer.,.i .,
 This shows that agitation and vitu- peration do not pay. That the people are heartily tired of the fight being made on our institutions, and desire a change. The; old order of election eering, where it was considered good form to blackguard your opponent has passed away, we hope never to return, and the man who makes his race upon the ground that his opponent is ras- cal and a scoundrel is doomed to de- feat. The people of Alaska want to know" They have shown that a mans past record is measured and must be up to standard to receive their support. The article follows:
 "The telegram the, Citizen (Fair- banks) published this morning quot ing remarks made by Delegate Wick ersham in his speech last night at Seward, being that part of his speech referring to Col Richardson, reflects no credit upon our Delegate as de batter or an Alaskan. It is simply cheap personal abuse and further at- tacks upon Col. Richardson and will cost the Delegate many votes where ever Alaskans are fair-minded.
 "Col. Richardson issued a pamph- let refuting misrepresentations dis tributed by the Delegate throughout Alaska. The Colonel told of the truth and told it in gentlemanly manner, making no allusion to the Delegates personal habits or delinquencies- simply defending himself from unfair attacks and defending himself in a gentlemanly manner. The Delegates reply in coarse allusions to the Col onel's personal habits is illogical inu- endos and absolutely untrue. His statement that the burned records in the Commissions office at Valdez will never disclose what their con. tents were, insinuates that the records were "doctored,"" and that the town of Valdez was destroyed to wipe them out of existence, yet makes no speci- fic claim of anything being wrong with the records, just seeks to poison the public mind against an honorabl :,

JETER received 476, Frame 307, Hunter 236, and Dieringer 27 votes in Anchorage. If the Wickersham- Frame bunch were supporting MT. Dieringer instead of MT.

SAYS ACID STOMACH
CAUSES INDIGESTION
Excess of hydrochIoric acid sours the
food and forms gases.

Undigested food delayed in the
stomach decays. or rather, ferments
the same as food left in the open air,
says a noted authority. He also tells
us that Indigestion is caused by Hyper
acidity, meaning, there is an excess of
hydrochloric acid in the stomach,
which prevents complete digestion and
starts food fermentation. Thus every
thing eaten sours in the stomach much
like garbage sours in a can. forming
acrid fluids and gases r-hich initiate
the stomach like a toy balloon. Then
we feel heavy, lumpy misery in the
chest, we belch up gas, we eructate
sour food or have heartburn, flatulence.
waterbrash or nausea.
He tells us to lay aside all digestive
aids and instead, get from any phar-
macy four ounces of Jad Salts and
take tablespoonful in a glass of wat
er before breakfast and drink while it
is effervescing and furthermore, to
continue this for a week While re-
lief follows the first dose, it import
ant to neutralize the acidity. remove
the gas-making mass, start the liver
stimulate the kidneys and thus pro-
mote a free flow Of pure digestive
juices.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia and So
dunn phosphate. This harmless salts
is used by thousands of people for
stomach trouble with excess results
