MEMORIAL, GAME.

At the suggestion Ot two O1 the teachers of the local school, Manager Beam and his baIpayers have agreed to donate all the funds, over and above actual expenses, taken in at the gate during the next three games to the Memorial Gymnasium Fund. The first of these Memorial games will be played next Sunday at Exposition park.
 The fund for the proposed gymnasium IS already started. The first money going to it was made by school students by giving d matinee at Thornes. The boys of the local school will this week conclude an earning cam paign which will add to the start already ob- tained.
 It is hoped that the baseball teams will be able to turn in a substantial sum to the cause. Neither team nor any individual, will benefit one dollar from the games. It IS not a com mercial proposition with the boys. They do- nate their time and services freely. They have been furnishing good brand of ball this season, and aside from the Worthlncss of the cause they have espoused, deserve the support of the town A good crowd should be at Sundays game and the remaining ones of the Memorial series Boost for them. Go to them Help promote the proposed gym nasum and swell the fund by purchasing d ticket.

A WORD FOR THE PLAIN MAN.
(N. \. Globe.

The t11g O1 the a1rmen seeking to cross the Atlantic with key to unlock sealed cham bcrs of vision and fancy. But, unfortunately, such events do not occur every day. Most of us plod along, day ill., day out, and we find no such key and the chamber stays sealed. We feel sure that if there were only some miracle to jar Us out of the rut we should be able to find within ourselves beauty so vivid and thot so splendid as to lift Us up to the very throne of the gods themselves. But the miracle we look for does not come.
 And yet no miracle is needed For the very things that we desire greatly are in that despised rut In the man who faces the rOu- tine of life, going fresh to the assault each day, beset by many winds of evil chance, prey to the crotchets of superiors, keeping his temper tho sorely tried doing all suffering all, perhaps for the sake of his good name, more likely for the sake of the family shelter ed behind hm-in this man there is heroism as great and noble as fires any Columbus of the air. Consider how he accepts the greatest reSpOnSlbllities-theW welfare of tamlly-and stays to carry them out rather than to run from them when the whole wide world is open to his feet Would selfish inclination urge any woman to be wife and mother and to do all the multifarious duties involved, working ear lv and late, with little break in the routine :? She submerges herself and her inclinations for the good of others.
 With all due respect to the alr1nen, the polar explorers, the men who climb mountain peaks, dare the trackless desert, or brave the tropic jungle, it is easier to be a hero than a plain man. The one has a straight course ahead and everybody pulling for him. If he loses, he loses; that is all. The other must take defeat every day and yet come back for more And the only chance he has to have the band play for him or to get his name in the papers is to give in at last to Death

READING ON VII, SON.
(New York Evening Post.)

Lord Reading leaves as British Ambassa- dor after paying the highest tribute to Presi- dent Wilson as a great factor in both the war and the coming peace At almost the same time, Lord Parmoor in England was saying that but for the force and skill of Mir. Wilson at Paris, the League of Nations never could have been made a reality. No man in Great Britain carries more weight today than Lord Parmoor; and his praises of Wilson are echoed by the English press.
 All this would have caused no embarrass- ment to stalwart republicans in the good old days They would have sprung to their feet to point out, with mingled shame and scorn, the trucking of democratic President to Great Britain. But it happens that just now, the major premises of our stalwart republi- cans is that the democratic President has been messing up our good relations with England, angering British statesmen, exasperating Brit ish public opinion and, by his ignorance and pig-headedness, endangering the whole peace settlement.
 Consequently, the clear and high recogni- ton of the work of the President by repre- sentative and eminent Etngshmen is, coming at this time, an awkward thing for his violent critics at home It will compel them to display all their logical agility. It may make it neces- sary for Senator Lodge to stop, look and listen.

WHY THEY ARE DISQUALIFIED.

The thirteenth specification in Nlcker- shams charges in filing his contest over the 1918 election reads in part as follows:
 "This contestant is informed and believes and therefore alleges that at the said election for delegate to congress on November ;, 1918, i'll the precincts of Granby, Copper Center, Sourdough, in the Third division, and in Rich ardson, Fairbanks, Chcna, Nenana, Hot Springs Panama, Ft. Gibbon, Louden, Ruby, NuIato, Eagle and Circle, in the Fourth divl- sion, and in Iaines in the First division, and in other voting precincts n Alaska, large number Ot persons * cast the1r votes tor Charles A. Suzer for delegate to congress, which votes were received and counted and 1re included in the total number of votes can vasscd and compiled by the canvassing board; that each of said persons was an enlisted sol dier in the army of the United States and not a resident of Alaska prior to his arrival III Alaska. * *''
 And Mr. Wickersham asks that this large number of votes be thrown out as having voted for AIr. SuIzer. He takes no considera- ton of those soldiers who may have voted for him, proceeding, perhaps, on the theory that if any soldier voted for him they were en- titled to vote At Ioudcn, which he includes in the list of precincts wherein soldiers voted, the returns showed that Nickersham received nine votes and his late opponent not one. Yet 1t is specifically mentioned as being one of the places giving soldier vote to Mr. Sul- ger. At Eagle he says soldiers voted, while within a few days the writer has been inform ed by one of the election officials of the Eagle precinct, himself a Wickersham supporter, that no soldier voted there in the 1918 elec- tion Richardson is also included and the operator at that place is not even an American citizen and could not and did not vote.
 Among others included in the list are places where men, who voted, are married, have families and taxable property, have been discharged and re-enlisted in Alaska, others who have long ago passed their term of en- listment and are being held under the emer- gencv clause in the military service, and all of whom possess the necessary voting quail hCations Mr. WiCkerSham has either been poorly informed or else bases his beliefs upon his political prejudices.

AMERICAN RED
 CROSS NURSES

BUCHAREST. June CA P. Cor rospondence.)- The children of Ruma mia are the special care of the Ameri can Rcd Cross nurses who are show ing Rumanian mothers how to care properly for them. They are dis tributing infants clothing, condensed milk soap. talCum powder and every thing that contributes to baby's com fort In this field of relief work tn, efforts of the Americans already have shown remarkable results. Tn" con dition Of the children has been won dcrfully improved
 The Red Cross workers found the children in all these war-affrcteG towns in a pitiful state of impoverish ment Many of them were slowly dy ing of starvation Others had bella gra and ma lignant skin diseases These little ones are now being cared for and given nOurishing and fatten 4IlS l'O'S Slltll iS DdNDii, .ldIll, Nou liver oil. etc They have shown won derful improvement since the Ameri cans came.
 All these children have been under the stress and strain of war for foul years and have really never known what childhood is. In common with their parents, they have borne the keenest privations and suffrrings Since Rumania entered the war they have not known what it is to play or to laugh Hunger has robbed them of that spirit The war has blightpd their lives. No smiles have come tC their faces, no happiness into then hearts. They are like flowers which, have never seen the sunshinn Theil wan. pinched little conferences tel a tragic story. They have had neither proper food sholter nor clothing Many of them have lost either one or both parents.
 The Red Cross gives them Ameri can jam and sweets. the things that youngsters the world over crave for and their dark eyes, frank and melar choly. light up with a new radiance They become children again. Tho Americans give them clothing. shoes stockings. They bathe them. The little tots become real human beings

ENCI AND WELCOMES PERSHING

While not unexpected, the manner in which the government and people of England have welcomed General Pershing cannot help but be gratifying to Americans. The honors being shown him are scarcely less than those shown to President Wilson when the latter visited London, and are indicative of the high regard in which he is held by the English on account of the valiant military services he has performed as commander-n-chief of the American Expeditionary Forces in France
 General Pershing's ability as military leader is generally recognized in America, and his choice as head of the expeditonary forces by President Wilson is now conceded to have s8Asea oae of wisdom. It is apparent now that

MAKE, TT BONE DRY.

Wednesdays telegraph despatches say that the fight over the prohibition enforcement measures now CenterS over whether or not it shall be declared unlawful for individuals to have liquor in their homes for private con- sumption. When legislation enacted in the past is considered 1t is not understood just why there should be any serious difficulty III the matter.
 Alaska went dry under a congressiona, act That act make it illegal for individuals to have alcoholic liquors in their homes. It is the real simon-pure, bone dry article And as we remember 1t there wasn't much scrap ping done in congress over it's passage. Not enough at any rate, to attract widespread comment.
 If such law is right and just for Alas kans it cannot be less right and just tor other Americans To legislate otherwise would come under the head of class legislation, which Alaskans would resent Not that any one desires to play the dog-in-the-manger part but we believe that 1t would do no harm for the whole country to have real prohlb1- ton if it is going to have any at all.

MUCH FREIGHT
 LEFT ON PIERS

NEW YORK, July 16.- P) The marine strike now under way is the cause of d vast accumulation of freight on the piers of this port. Three hundred vessels are tied up by the men refusing to work and the shipowners now look to the federal shipping board for some solution of the transportation problem.
 The seamen who have struck com prise firemen. oilers and water tend CTS, men Vitally necessary to the op- eration of the ships. The shipping board has intimated that naval crews may be used to operate the conner cial vessels unless the strikers evi- dence a willingness to return to work. Efforts to effect a compromise have utterly failed and the board is now making no overtures to the striking sailors

CONGESTION INCREASE

NEW YORK, July 16.- (P) The congestion of freight on the piers here is rapidly increasing Every hour sees additional carloads of merchan- disc billed up on the docks to await the movement of the cargo carrying ships. Additional guards have been stationed all along the waterfront to protect the merchandise and the ship ping from possible theft and injury
 The shipping board announces this evening that, after several futile con Iferences with the leaders of the strik
 ing marine workers of this coast, no further attempt will be made to run their vessels until the strike is defin
 itely settled. It had been thot the shipping board would use naval crews to man the ships but it has evidently abandoned that idea It is estimated that there are four hundred vessels tied up on account of the strike.

Of Harris County died. Mr. Ander
sons friends persuaded him to make
the race for the unexpired term of
Sheriff to which he was easily elect

the people in this important office
for fifteen consecutive years. Then
Mr. Anderson declined reelection
and retired 10 private life. He cast
his lot among the people of Houston

Perhaps you can pay for your room
