Passengers Aboard Claim They Would Like to Trav- eI All Summer on the
 Comfortable Liner

With party of ninety-five round trip passengers composed of Shrin- CTS from San Francisco lodges aid their wives, the Princess Mary ar rived in Juneau last night on her way north, in command of Capt. Orinston Beside the Shriners, the majority of the remaining passengers on the Mary are people returning to the In terior after spending the winter out side
 The presence of girls acting as waitresses on the Princess Mary in dicates one of the results of the re- cent strike which held up shipping in British Columbia for several weeks While the strike has been settled, and the strikers ultimately defeated, the stewards have not been taken back and their positions have been filled by girls.
 The Princess Mary, though three lays late, is attempting to resume her regular schedule while on this rip. She will sail southbound Mon day morning.

Delegate Grigsby
Fairbanks CitiZen)

Fairbanks Cizen)
 Advices received in town yesterday say that a resolution introduced Tuesday the floor of the House of Representatives for the purpose of seat ing George Grigsby Delegate from Alaska to fill the vacancy left by the death of MT Sulzer. This, it stated, done so that MT Wickersham could proceed with his proposed contest
 This resolution, if it passes, it probably will upses the local Wickersham dope. Wick followers that Grgsby would never be seated and the contrary proceedings of the House leaves them gasping.
 The Citizen believes, however, that once these men from their natural surprise, they will acknowledge that it is the best thing that could have happened for all concerned. There ous reasons why he should have been seated and none worth while why he should be denied the

Without of fcia representative, Alaskan interests are sure to suffer It is manifestly impossible to seat MT Wick ersham at this time and other person has any shadow of claim the place but George Grgsby.
 For Wickersham's political purposes some one had to be seated to succeed MT Sulzer. Until that had been done, he could take no action in his contest MT. Sulzer had never been seated following the last election The House received a certificate showing him to have been duly elected but had ap- peared to claim the vacancy left by his death and the seat never having been occupied, could not log caly be made the subject of contest

WICKERSHAM JUST CAN'T "yOTED
 SQUARE

A Washington telegram which appears eseWhert in this naper stating that Wickersham is attempting to extend the time for commencing to take tesu- nonv in his contest case (his testimony having al ready been aken ninety days is deliberate attempt to handicap Deegate Grigsby who now occupies 6 scat in Congress over Wcks protest by proVldlhe that he be required begin the work Of taking tes timony for his answer the contest after winter sets in and when travel to and from many points te which it will be necessary for the Delegate to go will be frau9ht with many hardships which were not encountered by Wickersham while taking ms side of the testimony in April and May. Aiso ne hopes by getting a resolution extending the time taking testimony passed to deprive Delegate Grlss by of his iE Congress during the time he will necessarily be engaged in securing testimony and pre- pairing a rebuttal Wickersham's case.
 If Judge Wickersham desired to be on the square which is foreign to both his nature and dispos tion--be would not make effort to keep his op- ponent away from his duties Delegate by desiring to impose him by forcing him to make pilgrim age of the way places to secure testimony at time when travel in Alaska is much more unpleas- than when Wickersham securing testimony with which to bolster up his few weeks ago. But such methods purely "Wickaran." Only Wick would think of such dirty and unfair practices However the election committee is apt to fall for his scheme.
 Of course Wickersham would take few waops at what he designates the Democratic machine. The fact that he made speech wouldtimply that he had roasted somebody something. Roasting is his stock in trade. His roasts have done more to reard the development growth and prosperity of Alaska than high freight rates, sixty below zero weather and flu all three combined

 Both Senators from each three Southern States Oklahoma, Texas and Arkansas-voted in the frmative. The Democratic Souths record on the resolution compares favorably with that of Repub lican New England The Republican leader in the Senate. Lodge Massachusetts, opposed the resolu- tion The Democratic Senator from that State Walsh, voted The other Democratic Senator from New England Garry of Rhode Island paired for the resolution. Both Maine Senators, publicans, voted for the resolution and in New Hamp shire and Vermont, the Republican Senators were "hhy-hfy' Both Connecticut Senators, Repub- cans. voted mo"
 While the by which the resolution was passed neither sectional nor partisan neverthe- less its this time is attributed by women to the leadership of President Wilson Thinking men and women have known for forty years that suffrage would eventually be extended to women But half dozen years the causes triumphs seemed yet a long way off
 But President Wilson's public espousal of the and his eloquent plea to Congress accord voting privilege to women not only in recognition Of peril, but simple act of justice. and the pas sage of the resolution by the Senate only the happening of the expected.

RACE RIOTS IN
BRITISH ISLES
Importation of Negroes Dur
ing War Cause of
Outbreaks

London, July 17.-Race riots in
the northern part of England and
Wales have created a stir through
out the country principally because
of the novelty of such occurrences
in these islands
Normally there are few negroes
or aliens with colored skins to be
seen in Great Britain, but the ex-
igencies of war caused the importa-
ton of a large number of them to
work on seaport docks and to re-
cruit the ranks of manual laborers
depleted by the call for fighting
men. The were brought from var
ious parts of the world, South
Africa and the West Indies supply
ing the bulk of them. Many Arabs
also were imported.
Repatriation of these colored
men has been slow, with the con-
sequence that many demobilized
British soldiers have had what to
them seemed the bitter experience
OF seeing strangers engaged at pro-
fitable employment while they,
themselves, looked in vain for work.
Resentment over this state of af-
fairs quickly developed into hatred
when the soldiers observed that the
strangers were trying to cultivate
the acquaintance of white girls. A
number of negroes took white
wives.

URGES FORESTS
BE RESTORED
President of American For
estry Association Sees
Need for Action

Warrington, July 17.-Plans for
the perpetuation of the forests in
New England and the East, and for
the restoration of the denuded forest
land is being thoroughly discussed
by the Association Of Eastecn For
esters which meets at kineo. Ne, to-
asy. Charles Lathrop Pack, Presi-
dent of the American Forestry As
-ocaation, has issued a call to the
EASTERN Foresters to express their
view of the need of a national forest
policy.
The people of this country must
be told how our forests are disap-
pearing," said Mr.. Pack, "and must
be arused to the need of a policy
which will result in our watersheds
being protected for all time and Tor
our forests to be managed so that
they may provide for all our future

ments.

tor in our lumber supplies. and its

exhausted. Inc paper HllilS u INC
country already import 80 per cent.
of their raw material in the form Of
wood or pulp. Our hardwoods in the
North and the East are being rapidly
used up and many wood using indus
tries are already embarrassed for
supplies.
The Eastern Foresters are experts
who should be able to offer prac-
teal solution to the problem of how
to conserve what forests we have re-
naming, how to restore what for
ests have been destroyed, how to
protect our forests from fire and how
to provide for perpetuation of our
forests so that the lumber require
ments of the Nation may be assured
for the future.
THE American Forestry Associa-
ton will heartily support the demand
of the United States Forest Service
for a national forest policy and Wal
call upon the lumbermen. timber
land owners and the foresters of the
country to suggest plans for a policy
which will be practical and which
will assure the Nation of ample for

Says His Prescription
Has Powerful Influence
Over Rheumatism

DiScoverer Tells Druggists Not to
Take Cent of Anyone's Money
Unless AIlenrhu Completely Ban
ishes All Rheumatic Pains and
Twinges.
Mr.. James II. Allen suffered for
years with rheumatism. Many times
this terrible disease left him helpless
and unable to work.
He finally decided, after years of
ceaseless study, that no one can be
free from rheumatism until the ac-
cumulated impurities. commonly call
ed uric acid deposits, were dissolved
in the joints and muscles and en-
PEELED from the body.
With this idea in mind he consult
ed physicians, made experiments and
finally compounded prescription
that quickly and completely Danish
ed every sign and symptom of rheu-
matism from his system.
He freely gave his discovery to
others who took it, with what might
be called marvellous success. After
years of urging he decided to let suf
ferers everywhere know about his
discovery through the newspapers.
George A. Gorgas has been appoint
ed agent for Allenrhu in this vicin-
ity with the understanding that he
will freely return the purchase
money to all who state they received
no benefit.
