A Thorough Test

 Doan's Kidney Pills have made their reputation by effective action.
 The following case is typical.
 Skagway residents should be con- Vinced.
 The testimony is confirmed-the proof complete.
 Testimony like this cannot be ig- Dored.
 Mrs. Ellen Watson, 4O5 E. Thir- tieth St., Tacoma, Wasn., says: "Af- ter an operation and being in the hospital three months my kidneys were weak. My back was lame and there was a heavy dull ache across my Joins. My kidneys sometimes acted too frequently and Bometimes not often enough and bladder trou- ble caused me a great deal of dis tress. Deans Kidney Pills relieved me of all that trouble" (State- ment given November 4, 1915.)
 On May 23, 1917 Mrs. Watson said: "I can never say enough in praise of Doan's Kidney Pills. They cured me of kidney complaint and the cure has lasted"

ALASKA WORK
 IS CRITICIZED

In the current issue Of the Rail- way and Marine News appears a lengthy article under the name Of Edmund Ellsworth Sumner, in which the Alaskan railroad commis- sion and lack of congressional fore sight are severely criticized be- cause of the heavy increase in the cost of construction of the Government territorial project.
 Criticism is directed at congress for failure to have arranged for the purchase of steel and other construction supplies and equipment at the time the appropriation for the project was made in 1914, at which time. the writer asserts, the p,icss were from 50 to ASS per cent, less than at the present time.
 Simmer in his article maintains that practically all of the materials especially steel rails, could have been rurnishde at that time, and the cost of construction thereby les seped fully one-third. The writer also takes the commission in Icharse of the work to task TOT
 ifs ruling whereby the men em-
 ployed on the various units Of the Alaska railroad receive pay for eight hours at the prevailing AL
 aska rate of ten hours a day. He recites that such action on their
 part was unnecessary, and mas added materially to the cost of the
 work.
 He then asserts that the govern
 meut has added to the high cost or the Alaska project because of the cbartering of the United States "r- my transport Crook in the tranSpor, ltation of materials and supplies to the different bases in the North. On this score the writer asserts that the government could nave lel;sened the cost of the project con siderably by having the required material shipped north on the reguI liar steamers operating to Alaska land that the transport Crook would Ihave better served the government lin other channels or have been chartered for offshore cargoes al
 a high rate.
 The article also censures the engineering commission for the al lIega3 failure or the construction forces to connect up any portion oI Ithe various units of the railway the doing of which the writer as sets to be possible, and would have afforded transportation ia ,nitics for at least one of the coa' ! fields tapped by the road duHne Che coming wiuter.-Seattle P.-I.

About year ago fifty Tagus farm

Now it seems there are some who are
working overtime trying to kill the
association, or at least discourage
those who ship through the Associa-
ton, by saying things about the
Equity Exchange, to suit their own
taste. One of the things we have
heard said is that the spectators will
not buy from the Exchange, and this
is the very thing that the farmers of
today are fighting to get away from
not alone in the stock market but in
everything else. When you go to the
Equity Exchange to buy a car of
stockers or feeders, they won't take
you down to the stocker and feeder
division, or in other words, to the
spectators end Of the yards, to get
your stuff for you, and force you to
pay a third commission which in this
way takes place. No, you can buy di-
rect from the Equity boys, and thus
