 OF NATION ARE
 AWAITING CALL

CHICAGO, June 9. - Notwith- standing the fact that it was in- timated by union officials early this month that the telegraphers of the country would not be asked to par ticipate in a general strike, Presi- dent Konenkamp, of the National Photographers organization, now an nounces that the strike called for Wednesday will involve 7O,000 men and will cover practically the en- tire country. He is now taking the final steps, he says, which are ex- pected to tie up the nations wire service completely.
 The strike began with a walkout at Atlanta, which was referred to by union officials as a purely local affair. This was followed few days later by a strike call affect ing nine states in the Southeast, and it is now planned to enlarge the strike zone to include the rest of the country.

GIANT WIRELESS
 STATION TC PUT
 ALASKA ON MAP

SEATTLE, June 9.-The Wasfr- ington correspondent of the Times is authority for the statement that plans have been formulated by the signal corps for the abandonment of the Alaska military cable and the establishment of more positive communication between this city and the Northern territory by means of powerful wireless stations.
 The station to be erected here will probably be one of the largest in the world, with power enough to send messages to new and very powerful station to be erected at Fairbanks. The reason for this con- templated improvement in the Alas ka service, says the Washington dispatch, is that the Alaska military cable has outlived it's usefulness It is old and worn and requires frequent repairs, necessitating in terruptions in the service, which are oftentimes costly and always inconvenient to Alaska.
 Funds for the proposed improve ment are contained in an item which IS part of the military appro- priation bill now pending Con- gress. The signal corps has asked for quarter of million dollars for the erection of six new stations in Alaska, the largest of which will be located in the Interior, at Fair banks. It is planned to have the Seattle-Fairbanks service in opera tion within two years.
 Colonel R. B. Paddock, chief sig nal officer of the research engineer ing division, says that the site for the Seattle station has not been se- lected yet, but that it probably will be located on the top of some high hill.

WILLARD MAKES FANS PAY WELL
 FOR RING DOPE

TOLEDO, June 9.-There is con siderable unfavorable criticism in this city in consequence of the ad- vance in the price of admission to the Willard training camp. During all the time that Dempsey has been in training here, he has limited the admission charge to his training camp to 25 cents, and the place has been visited daily by large crowds. When Willard arrived, he boosted the rate to half dollar, and took in over two thousand dollars the first week, which was almost double his expense for training during that time. The fans kicked on the charge and are still complaining, some even threatening a boycott, but the daily attendance continues good despite the protests.
 Willard's daily practice with the gloves is increasing length steadi- ly, it being his intention to work up to twelve rounds, which is the number scheduled for the big Fourth of July match.

IRISH DELEGATES
 PREDICT TROUBLE

PARIS, June 9.-That serious in- ternal strife may be expected in Ireland if the demands of that country are ignored by the peace conference, was indicated today by statements made to President Will son by members of the American Irish delegation.
 Guerilla warfare of a character that usually precedes a major con f1ict is now in progress in various parts of Ireland, according to the delegates, and trouble of more serious nature may be expected soon, they say, unless steps are taken to remove the cause of un- rest and discontent.

B|G WHEAT CROP
 IS PREO|CLEO BY
 BUREAU EXPERTS

WASHINGTON, D. C., June o. According to a statement given out today by the department of agricul- ture, the 1919 wheat crop of the United States will be the largest in the history of the country, ex- ceeding that of last year by over two hundred million bushels. The estimates includes both spring and winter crops, the total for the year being rated at 1,236,0O0,OOO bush- els. The winter crop is estimated at 893,00O bushels.
 Increased acreage, encouraged by the promise of high prices, is chief ly responsible for the splendid showing, but favorable weather con- ditions throughout the wheat-grow- ing sections of the country also have helped to swell the yield, in- surfing large profits for the wheat growers of the nation.

OLDT|MER WR|TES
 OF HIS RECOVERY

According to advices received in Nenana during the past week, How ard Wilson, well known oldtimer, who was sent Outside several months ago for the. benefit of his health, is greatly improved in con dition and is planning an early return to the North.
 In a letter addressed to John Dugan of this city, Wilson said that he had been in the Mayo hospital about three weeks, following an operation, and expected to be suffi- ciently recovered to start for Alaska in July. After arriving at Roch- ester, he was compelled to wait ten days before he could get into a hospital, notwithstanding the fact that there are five institutions there and all big ones. The hospital to which he was finally admitted has three hundred beds and a staff of sixty-five nurses.
 Wilson writes that the Rochester surgeons opened up his injured leg and chiseled off some of the bone, and at the time of writing the cut had just about healed and his health otherwise was excellent.

OUTSIDERS ARE AFTER DOPE ON
 OPENINGS HERE

That Alaska is attracting con- siderable attention on the Outside, especially among people who are desirous of improving their cou- dition, is indicated by letters re- ceived recently by the Fairbanks Commercial club.
 Advices received from the gpper town state that the club has re- ceived letters on recent mails from more than forty persons in the States, all wanting to know about conditions in the North. The let ters came from professional men, prospective settlers who asked about homesteads, and laborers and office men. There were also few in quiries from men of means who desire to be informed regarding the opportunities for investment in Interior Alaska.
 The letters came from many parts of the United States, and even as far away as France, showing that Alaska has received some ad- vertising, at least, even across the. ocean. One of the letters came ala the way from Hawaii.

 Hunt, of course, has refused to disclose where and how he obtained the copy which he brought from Europe, but he admits that he made a special voyage across the Atlan- tic to insure the safe delivery of the document.

HCW:TOGROW
TOMATOES

Tomatoes are adapted to growing
in every garden, whether large or
small. To have a supply early in
the season, the seed should be sown
under cover four to six weeks be-
fore the weather becomes warm
outdoors, and the plants should be
transplanted once or twice before
setting them in the open ground
Indoor plants should be gradually
hardened to outside conditions.
This can be done by placing the
boxes or pots in which they are
planted outdoors for several hours
each day when the weather l.;
warm They may be left out all
night when there is no danger Of
frost. Plants for the main or late
crop can be started outdoors after
the ground has become warm.
Two methods are in vogue for
growing tomatoes in home gardens.
In the small garden the plants may
be set two feet apart in each d.
rection and then pruned to single
stem and tied to stakes. Where
plenty of land is available, the
plants may be set three to four feet
apart and allowed to grow natural
ly upon the ground. 1t should be
borne in mind, however, that by
trimming and tying the plants to
stakes better quality of fruit is
obtained, and that the fruit will
ripen earlier than when they are
not trimmed and trained. From 2S
to 50 tomato plants will be suf-
ficient for growing in the home
garden, and this number will fur
nish plenty of tomatoes for sum-
mer use and for canning.-Unit,d

then, that the political party which
had been taught to believe pos
sessed all the virtues, actually was
the party of sectionalism, became
settled conviction later that year
when heard the campaign speech
es of Hayes and Tilden and the
inaugural address of President
Hayes in the following year.
I'm the Garfield Hancock cam
paign in 1880 l heard the democrats
charge the republicans had bought
the election and I asked whose
votes they bought. If votes had
been bought they must have been
democratic votes and | then became
convinced that if this were true
could never belong to party that
would sell out. If republicans were
unpurchaseable, ! felt that the prin-
ciples of party must be worth stand
ing for and fighting for. There and
then | became soured on the demo-
cratic party.
The democratic party never was
and never can be the party of the
whole nation. A party cannot fight
for states rights and be friendly to
a strong, centralized government.
The democratic party is the party
of sectionalism. So long as it is
jealous of the power conferred in the
federal government it cannot stand
with the whole nation.
From thu campaign on I became
as staunch republican as | had pre-
viously been a democrat | cast my
first vote for James, G. Blaine and I
have voted for the candidate Of the
