importance of a Rich Loan,

One of the important results of max
ing rich loan with organic materials
Is noticed i'll the strong greening and
development of leaf. This is not neees-
sarily due to the absorption of fertility
by the roots. The bacteria which
grow and multiply in the loan when
supplied with food, warmth and mois-
ture exhale carbonic acid. as humans
do, and this gas, rising from the soil
and escaping into the air, feeds the
leaves, which inhale that gas as we in

half the dry matter of plants is carbon

CONSTIPATION AND INDIGESTION.

Inese are twin evils. Persons suffer
ing from Indigestion are often troubled
with constipation. Mrs. Robert Allsion,
Nation, ILL.,, writes that when she first
moved to Nation she was great suf-
ferer from indigestion and constipation.
Food distressed her and there was a
feeling like heavy weight pressing on
her stomach and chest. She did not
rest well at night, and felt worn out a
good part of the time. One bottle of
Chamberlain IS Tablets corrected this
trouble so that she has since felt like a
different person.

Valdez daily prospector. (Valdez, Alaska) 1905-1918, 1917-06-07

Juneau Dispatch, Republican paper.
and the Empire, one of the strongest
Democratic publications in Alaska,
have to say regarding the matter, II
appears that there is much opposi-
ton to Governor Strong's reappoint-
ment, not only among the politicians
but among the ranks of the Demo-
Gratis in that section. This opposition
evidently extends to a considerable
extent throughout the territory. judg-
in from the attitude of the Central
Democratic Committee.
We cannot see where the support of
the Dispatch will help the Governor
out. 1t is strictly pro-Wickersham,
and its viewpoint strictly Republican.
Unquestionably every Alaskan has an
interest in who shall be governor of
the Territory. But the endorsement
of any candidate for that Office by
one of the official organs of the Re-
publican party naturally will not add
to the attractiveness of that candi-
date in the eyes of the Democrats.
So at long range the declaration
of the Empire that the Wickites are
attempting to submarine the Demo-
crat appears to have some foundation
in fact. We don't mind saying that the
ways of politicians are beyond our
la I "a 70
OF the Irishman, they are hard to
keep track of, and most of the time
they are where they "aint." There
doesn't seem to be any decided choice
for the governorship among the oppo-
nents of Governor Strong. Whittlesey
undoubtedly has some influence, but
he sees to have been damned by too
faint praise" Griffin, another one of
those agreeable to the Central Com
mittee, declined to throw his hat into
the ring and is therefore out of 1t.
Jennings has been reappointed. as fed
eral Judge and is probably forced out
of the running. John Troy, the pick
of the bunch, won't have the job I'M
less it's brought to him on a silver
platter appropriately decorated.
That's the size of it as far as we
can learn. We have no desire to pose
as a prophet, nor is there any spirit
control upon whom we can depend
for guidance. but unless the various
partisans can agree upon a common
choice. we are willing to place our
bets on Strong as the man who sue
ceeds Observation-Disclosures Citizen.

DEMOCRATIC APPOINTMENTS

Down in Juneau the politicians
seem to be in an awful stew over the
appointments that are to be made this
year by the President to fill Alaskan
Offices. Allegations of everything from
petty larceny to highway robbery are
being banded about with all the
recklessness of a tenderfoot with a
brand new six gun.
From comments appearing in re-
cent issues of Juneau papers, it APP
pears that the hottest kettle on the
political stove at present is that which
contains the governorship. The dis
turbance appears to have started by
the action of the Democratic commit
tee in falling to consider Governor
Strong's name for reappointment. 1t is
claimed that Chairman Burns know
ing that the opponents of the Gov
-rnor had framed up deal. refused
70 put the name of Strong forward,
although he was strongly in favor OF
his reappointment. 1t is also claimed
that Grigsby. who voted the proxy of
! committeeman from the Second di-
vision, used it contrary to his instruc-
tons.
These charges are denied entirely
by the Empire. which claims that the
fuss is all being stirred up by the
Wickersham politicians in an effort
10 create discOrd in the ranks of the
able to pick few plums themselves
and regain their lost power. Just what
Inc actual situation is cannot be de-
fnitely determined from the infor-
nation at hand.

er recently said that it was with
reluctance that they had come to
the cash basis for they had a very
large number of customers who
were as good as gold, but that the
phenominal success of the Whit

had shown them the benefits of

themselves but to the people at
large.

opening under the new system
