PURE FOOD LAWS
SAFEGUARD MEAT

Ii is out of -he question nova
days for cold storage companies TO
attempt to preserve meats by other
than the simple process of chilling,
according to Ralph Waechter. Ne
mana representative of Waechter
Bros. There was q time, he says,
when preservatiyes We're used in
connection with the freezing process,
but all that was stopped years ago
by the enactment of pure food laws,
which are strictly enforced by the
federal government. Meat inspec-
tors watch the meat from the time
the animals are driven into the pens
until their carcasses go into the
chilling rooms, and each piece Of
meat is labeled to show when it was
killed and that it has passed in
spection. Under these circumstances
it is impossible for the packers and
cold storage men to slip anything
over on the public, even if they
sought the opportunity.
This statement was made by Mr.
Waechter because of the manner IN
which The News referred to the
meat tests conducted recently at
Fairbanks. The News stated that an
analysis had been made to ascertain
if the usual commercial preserva-
tives" had been used, and Mr..
Waechter asserts that the use of
such preveratives sis not ''usual,"
for the reasons above mentioned.
On the contrary, he says, it is very
unusual, if not actually impossible.
Mr.. Waechter also has informed
The News that there is no meat now
in the possession of his company in
this country which has been in stor-
age for a longer period than thirteen
months statement, he says. that
can be substantiated by the dates
officially attached to the meat.

MPAICN FOR {.
 A ROOSEVELT . MEMORIAL

The Roosevelt Memorial Association will be composed of every man, woman and child subscribing to the $10,0OO,0O0 proposed to be raised to erect a monument in Washington, D. C., and acquire a park at Oyster Bay in memory of Theodore Roosevelt
 It is a nationwide association, and the executive committee or board of directors is composed of representa- tive men and women of all sections of the country and of all political parties Composing the board of directors are such well-known people as George Harvey, Elihu Root, Mrs. Medill Me- Cormick, Henry L. Stimson, William Boyce Thompson, Albert H. Wiggin and Otto H. Kahn It is only neces- sary to mention the names of such people to be assured of the proper ex- penditure of the funds.
 The campaign will begin Monday, October 20, and end in the States on October 27 the anniversary of Roose- velt's birth. Owing to the great dis tances to be covered in Alaska, the time for taking subscriptions has been extended to November 15.
 Chairmen and solicitors have been appointed in each community in the territory. The funds will be collect ed, receipted for and deposited in the First Bank of Cordova, and by it re- mitted to Albert H. Wiggin of New York city, national treasurer.
 Every person in the territory will be given an opportunity to subscribe. No one will be urged so to do, for every dollar must come as free-will offering from the people to perpetuate the teachings and example of a man who at all times and under all circum- stances was 100 per cent. American.
 Chairman Hazelet has just returned from a trip to the westward, and re- ports enthusiasm among men and women of all shades of political be, lief.
 On the summit of a peak in the Black Hills of South Dakota is a tower bearing the inscription, 'To Theodore Roosevelt the American" No further designation is necessary. He was a statesman, historian, journalist, big game hunter, explorer and naturalist, but in and above all he was an Ameri- can, whose ruling passion was his country. He served his country with every side of his versatile nature. And this is why men and women of differ, ent shades of political belief are anx- ious to perpetuate his memory and hand his example down to their chil. dren.
 This campaign is an Opportune time to preach the straight, undiluted Americanism of Theodore Roosevelt

DISAPPOINTMENT
T0GREAT CROWD

Slow time over fast track made
the ree-for-all pace, one of the clas-
sleSt races of the season on any
track, a huge disappointment. The
largest mid-week crowd in the history
of the fair was on hand for the spec
tacle only to see the PAGERS perform in
mediocre form.
Grace Direct, from the stables of
Earl Beck and driven by the owner,
won all three heats all by herself. AL
ways in front and never hard pushed
Beck won with her as he pleased
Leata j., owned by C. C. Jones and
driven by him, made feeble bids for all
three heats in drives down the stretch
but she lacked both speed and reserve
to make her formidable contender
against the sturdy little mare who has
matched her ability against the worlds
fasters PAGERS and emerged victorious.
South Bend Girl, also from the Beck
stables and driven by Vic Fleming,
developed little lamness in the first
heat and did not push Grace Direct at
any stage Of the proceedings. Bonde-
lin, owned and driven by Charles Silva,
never was serious contender and,
after taking third in the first heat,
had to be content with fourth in the
second and third.
In only one heat, the second, did
the PAGERS show anything like their
true form. In that mile, they went to
the quarter pole in 3o11. The second
quarter was turned in 30h and the
last quarter down the stretch in BIZ.
making the mile in 2.02h.
The last heat vas exceptionally slow
for horses of this class, the time
being 2:0SA.
Grace Direct, the winner, is a bay
mare sired by Walter Direct; dam,
Misty Gentry. In IS starts this sea-
son, she has won IA firsts and has al
ways been in the money. Her winnings
total s13,615. These figures are ex-

that added, she is undoubtedly the
largest winner of the year among the

ton will be taken looking to a meet
ing of the party committee sometime
next spring when the question of can
didates will be taken up. That is
really a big question and there is a
sharp division of sentiment concern
ing it. Aspiring gentlemen who do
not expect much favor of the commit
tee are anxious that the people be
undisturbed; that no committee adj
vice be given them and that chance
for a nomination be left to every am
bilious democrat, as the makers of the
constitution intended.
A feature of today's meeting will be
