If everything was sold in as liberal and fair a manner as the below named drug eists are selling Schiffmann's New Con. centrated Expectorant, absolutely no cause for complaint or dissatisfaction could possibly arise from anyone. These druggists say-"Buy bottle of this rem edy and try it for Bronchitis, Whooping Cough. Severe Cough, Group or any Bronchial Affection, and We will return your money, just the same as we do with Schiffmann's famous Asthmador, if it does not give satisfaction. or if not found the best remedy ever used for any of these complaints" Why not take ad- vantage of this guarantee and try this medicine. and get your money back. rath- CT than buying another purely on the exaggerated claims of its manufacturer or on the strength of testimonials from others and run the chance of getting something worthless and also wasting your money9

If Earl Hodges had not made a good offical as secretary of state, and if he was guilty of miscon- duct in the office. and Dr. Brough and his friends knew about 1t. as they claim to know, why didthey wait until the campaign for gov ernor started before they started any charges? If Mir. Hodges had been derilect in his duties would not some one of them have told it on him before the campaign opened. inasmuch as he had held the office two terms before the race for governor was started.

Ordinarily unleached ashes from soft woods such as pine, con- tain from 1 to 5 per cent of pot ash while those from hard woods like oak sud hickory, contain from s to 10 per cent. In the ashes there is a small amount of phosp- horic acid. usually not exceeding per cent. The percentage of lime will usually range from 80 to 35 per cent.

PIN MONEY

When pins were first introduc into England. less than AGO years ago, they were so expensive that only wealthy people could afford them, and those who could were as proud of the fact as people are today over the possession Of automobiles. Then, as now, the statute books'contained some very peculiar laws. Among them was a regulation permitting manufac- turers to sell their pins only on January 1st and End. So. when the good wife went forth on these dates to get her pins, she bought them with what she call ed her pin money.' To have pin money" in those days was an indication of social position, and we can imagine the people liked to exploit the fact. The expression Ihas been preserved with somewhat the same signifl- canoe. To have "pin money" is to have money that does not have to be spent for necessities,
 It may be interesting to know that about 1,50O tons of iron and brass are used in the manufac- ture of pins in the United States yearly. - The Peoples Home Journal.

 In his speach at Conway. pr. Brough. in an effort to defend his views on the negro question said that while he was in favor of seggregating the negro and whiteman in the cities and towns. he wasl not in favor of seggsegating the negro from the white man on the farm, In other words. seggregating would be all right for the town people, but the county man would have to work side by side with the ne gro.

Dr, Brough knows that the votes are leaving him. and they ought to leave hlm. He or any other man who comes to Arkansas ought to be good enough to pay a poll tax: and failingito do so. they ought not to ask for the higest office within the gift of the people.
The Nevada County picayune., 1916-02-17

Dr. Brough seems to think it was not necessary for him to pay his poll tax until after he desided to run for governor. It was, in fact, a condescension for him to come to the state to live among us for the first five years. and he reasoned that he ought not to have to pay poll tax.

CHILL AND OUR SOUTHERN STATES

Somehow we are no t accustom- ed to regard Chili and several of our Southern states as identical in Iega. coirs. and ] et there is a striking similarity. as torinstarce in Chili wAen a weman marrles, taa law does not give heran eq al right witA her husband in CT children; t.r lroperly i5 under his control; her wages may be co., lectFd by him, and ,he earnings of the children beiorg eXclusivIy to the father. Unreasonable as these laws may appear they are duplicated in several states of the United States. At the request of a group of distinguished Chilian women these unequal and arb itrary discriminations have been brought to the attention of the Senate of that county, and 1t i3 possible the Civil Code will be amended. Wonder if Chili women will attain justice befere the wo- men of our southern states are recognized by their legislatures with equal legal and political rights.

THEY ARE JUST DREAMING

Those of the democratic rank and file who think that Wilson will be reelected for second term, are only dreaming From all indications Wilson is fast creating opposition his reelection Bryan start ed the ball rolling. It did not seem to have much force at first but it has accumulated considerable momentum since, until it is going mighty fast now. Bryan was followed by Hearst, who is tearing Will son to pieces Next the nomination of Brad deis for a member of the supreme court which has caused many supporters fall back and stare at the absurdity of such proceeding. This was immediate y followed by the resignation of Secretary Garrison and his assistant. With this array of opponents can any ore wonder that Wilson is fast losing some of his popularity
 Now, couple with all this, there is the Colonel who never loses the opportunity to hammer Wilson's policy; finding and showing flaws here and there All this makes up opposition that will prove hard to overcome Besides, there is the German vote to be reckoned with. Wilson has been throwing water on whatever love the Germans had for him. It is true that the Colonel has been much more outspoken along the line, but the Colonel is not at present President of the United States consequently cannot do the harm that Wilson did After all, it seems though the Colonel would be the next president and not Wilson.

BRANDEIs NOT BEST MAN FOR PLACE
(From Seattle Times)

(From Seattle Times)
 Much useless Is being voiced at this time on the Presidents action in nominating Louis b Brandeis for seat on the supreme bench of the United States. The comment is useless because 1t does not confine itef strictly to consideration of the only issue involved in the seectionthe question whether the man chosen is the best man available for the place.
 That is the sole matter to be settled by the Pres dent and Congress. Viewed in this light the Bran des candidate is net particularly strong one He is rot the best man for the place By sueseh of inlac nation can he be so considered. Who, for instance would compare him with Professor W H. Taft
 The Supreme tt,r of the United States wields an authority great that of the President of Congress. Its autht rity rests. in large measure the foundation of public confidence. IL has won that confidence by tslng wiser, stronger ani more far-seeing than othcr institutions in government
 Mir. Brandeis not fit into picture of the members of that tribunal. As private eili .el re has his work to perferm and unquestionably band ling lis sef-appointeo tasks effectively. F. lever what he has done up to this time has stamped him as the biggest available man for the office .oi associate justice of the Supreme Court of the United States

KFTCHTKAN, ALASKA. FEBRUARY Is.
IT CAME AS A RELIEF

Some days ago. the Juneau Empire stated that John Rustguard would not consider the nomination of candidate for delegate to congress That repor struck us as rather peculiar. and we waited Next came statement made by Mir. Rustgard that he had been nisouoted This Is what constitutes the relief mentioned in the caption. At the same time 1t gave us some food for reflection
 Cogitating over the reason for the contradictory ranor1s we may as well ask: Can the Empire fear the popularity of MT. Rustgard that it resorted to -iSquoting him. thereby creating impression that his mind was made up refuse to represent Alaska While Mr Rustgard has expressed himself fully on the subject he knows very well that the people have confidence in him. and that the people want him he has no moral right to refuse to repre- sent them That is the reason he has never said that he would not accept the nomination. As mat ter of fact Rustgard Is the who can carry the republican banner to victory at the coming election ii republican can. Just the same as Senator Sulzer can carry the democratic banner to victory fl democrat can.
 The people of Alaska have neither time pa tence to permit political trieksers to play with their al any and all times. They fear that their exper- ience Of the last four years may be repeated and in the election of delegate territorial representa- tives they are going to be careful than ever. That is the reason that John Rustgard Is wanted by the honest republicans just the same Sulzer IS wanted by the honest democrats They know that they can depend on them because they not men that any political shysters monkey with
