THANKS, MIR. SULZER

The thanks of the people of Alaska are due to Delegate Sulzer for the passage of the bill exempng claim owners from doing assessment work this year. It is conceded that to him is due the credit. The service is not slight one by any means. Particu- larly beneficial is it those of the Gastineau Channel district and engaged in operating mines through this section of Alaska It is beneficial of course, because it the cost of the assessment work to claim owners but it's particular value to the people is because of the relief to the labor situation The operating mines need far more men than they now have If it had been for the action of Congress several hundred would have to be taken from other useful occupations where they are helping to keep the wheels of industry moving in order to per form the work the many hundred unpatented claims within this section of the Territory. Such a burden would be very serious matter at this time.
 There will be general rejoicing among the people of Aaska-of Southeastern Alaska in particular-on account of this excellent service by Delegate Sulzer, achievement that particularly difficult of at- tainment at this time account of the war, with the work it is entaing upon Congress- and because the circumstance that Congress is anxiously try ing get through with the extraordinary session and few weeks respite before the beginning of the regular session in December

MIR BRYAN'S RULE OF PATRIOTISM
(New York World)

There is no better rule of patriotism for the guidance of all pacifists, conscientious obJectors ana stckers for the rights of speech than that laid down by William J. Bryan in an address in Chlcago After asserting that the citizen who insists upon crticising the war policies of the Government IS a promoter of anarchy" Mir Bryan said:
 don't know how long the war will last,
 but I know that the quickest out is
 straight through. Any division or discus
 sion now would simply prolong the war
 and make it costly in lives and
 treasure.
 No man hates more bitterly than MT. Bryan, but the war in spite of everything that was done to avoid it, and MT. Bryans of ending 1t IS to beat Germany possible. That is the way of all men who straight, and Mir. Mryan is doing great public service in bringing the issue into the

his mother is the best-natured woman in the world.
 The girl who knows how to pro- nounce the names of all the great mu- sicians is always trying to turn the conversation around to the subject of music.
 The man who abuses his enemies too much may not know it, but he is merely making friends for them.
 Every time man patents a simple and useful idea. half the men in town can tell you that they thought of it before the inventor did.
 There are too many households in which the female end of the sketch imagines that she is overworked if she has to telephone for the groceries
 Some men get kind word every now and then But it is different with an amateur trombone player
 A husband can't convince his wife that she is in the wrong even when she knows he is.
 Another cinch bet is that you will never find out just what a woman real ly thinks of you unless you marry her. Why does a Preacher imagine that he has to leave town when he starts out on a mission to the Heather?
 What has become of the old fashion cd little girl who used to have her ears pierced so she could wear ear rings?
 Many 9 man wouldn't be broke to- day if the girl he was engaged to had only broken the engagement before he married her.
 Another reason why single men are more popular than married men is be- cause single man never repeats the cute things his kid said.
 Some married couples get along SO happily that if Friend Husband even comes home with smile, Friend Wife knows that he has been up to some skullduggery with another woman.

NEW YORK POLITICAL PARALLEL

The recent organization in New York of the County Democracy" recalls the days when the old County Democracy formed under the leadership of Hubert o. Thompson, Edward Cooper, Franklin Edson William R. Grace and others. There is much that is similar in the situation in the metropolis and then In each lack of harmony between Tammany and the National State Democratic lead at the bottom of the differences.
 the '7Os Samuel J. Tden began his famous war on Tammany and drove Boss Tweed poli- tcal bankruptcy. Tilden elected Governor and then nominated for President Then came Boss John kelly who while eliminating much of his grosser graft practices, retained the political methods that were followed by Boss Tweed. The fight between him and State Democrats continued while Tiden and Robinson at Albany, and in 1878 Tammany lost New York's municipal election when Edward Cooper, independent Democrat elected Mayor The next year Boss Kelly punished the State Democracy by running for Governor, himself thus insurng the elec- tion of Alonzo B. Cornell, Republican, Gov Lu- cius Robinson, Tiden, Democrat and Democratic reelection This action of Boss Kelly result in the formation of the County Democracy for purpose taking the regular Democratic organization New York county away from Tammany. In tht meantime William R. Grace millionaire ship owner and independent Democrat, had been elected Mayor. In 1882 the County Democracy recognized in the Democratic State convention the regular New York County Democratic party It nominated Frank lin Edson Mayor and he successful Hugh J. Grant, the Ianinany nomlnee deieatng RepuDn- can at the time. Grover Cleveland elected Gov ernor of the State the day, and he recos- nized the County Democracy
 Then two things that were destined to play important parts in New Yorks municipal affairs. Fi- nancai recklessness and personal exravagances ed The collapse of Hubert O. Thompson leader of the County Democracy and he dropped from sight of all but his creditors The other important the selection by Tammany of Richard Croker for leader The latter early showed the organizing ability that has caused him to be generally recognized as the
