GAP THROUGH WHICH
 GOODS ARE STRUGGLED

KATTOWITZ, Upper Selisia, Jan 23.-There is hole or. gap in the eastern customs border of Germany as well as through the west and through both, it is charged, articles of luxury and German money is flow ing. Illegal traders from Poland slip through the German lines every day and return to Poland with what ever they can purchase in the way of shoes, clothes. textiles, sugar and food, much of which Germany wants to retain for her own use but which is also greatly desired in Poland.
 There is no border and no hind rance of this trade. It is alleged that the goods thus shipped from Germany into Poland has run up into millions of marks.

DOUGLAS. ISLAND .N'fWS||
vIvE LES CHAMPIONS :!

The big honors of the teachers basketball game at Juneau last Fri day evening went to Douglas.
 The Juneau team showed burst of speed at the beginning but was unable to continue on high, and could not stand the pace.
 We don't know whom to mention in talking about the winners as every last member did her level best. 'Tis true they faltered just a wee bit during the first part, and many thought they were breaking at the three-quarter post and were go- ing to fail, but the falter was merely a breathing spell while they tight cned their belts for the sprint down the home stretch, and at the last quarter the way they pushed Juneau in the mud was pathetic.
 All we've got to say is that we have never seen as pretty finish and even the Juneau rooters felt like throwing their hats up in the air and yelling "atta girl.'
 r We are certainly impressed with the spirit of both organizations and only regret that victory could not perch on the banner of each. It may be that some time in the future our team will suffer defeat at the hands of their worthy foe and we hope it may lose at gracefully as they have done. They are good game bunch of fighters. They had no excuse to offer but gambled and lost and yielded gracefully. They passed the palms to the Douglas team and will permit it to bask in the, spotlight of popularity and do it's little stunt in front of the drop. We promise that Young's crew will live up to it's reputation, for it has that never say die" spirit to come under the wire at the finish with the same enthusiasm and the same spirit they started out with. It's members are developing a team spirit that will lead on to victory, They are on to good start and whoever beats them will have a wholesome respect for them.
 But the games behind don't count. It's the games ahead we want. We're on to a good start and in the next game we know they'n have the punch to put across another win.

HELENA Mont. Jan. 24.-State Forester J. C. Van Hook thinks newspaper publishers of this section err greatly in not going vigorously after the oft-broached proposition of making paper of lodge pole pines. There is litle commercial demand for this timber and forests of it, he says, go to waste.

SENATOR MILFORD WINSOR FOR GOVERNOR

least 1 800 over his nearest op- ponent. In the November cleo tion he will have the biggest majority ever given to a candi- date for any office in Yuma county.
 The reason for this hearty support is that the voters of Yuma county irrespective of party, believe that Senator Win sor, is the best equipped man in the state to fill the office of gov ernor. They have known the Senator many years and they recognize his very great ability as business man. They are sure that he will administer the affairs of state with good judg- ment and that he will play fair with all sections of the Common wealth. Winsor is personally popular and his wife and child ren are also a big drawing card with the people of Yuma. Mrs. Winsor is equally as popular as her husband.
 No greater tribute can be paid to any man than for his home county to rally to his support unanimously for great office like the governorship of this state. If the people of the state could be lead to know just how strong Senator Winsor will be in Yuma county in lis race for the Democratic nomination for governor it would add immeas, ureably to his strength in other sections.
 The campaign is young yet and it is too early to make pre- diction, but everybody in Yuma county is of the opinion that Winsor will win the Democratic nomination for governor at the September primaries and that his strength will increase with every day that passes between now and September 1.-The Yuma Sun.

Yuma county's candidate for governor is making progress. The Winsor Home County for Governor Club is doing some very. effective work. The re sponse of the press and the peo- pie of the state to Senator Win sor'S announcement of his can- didacy has been cordial in the extreme. The work of organiz ing the Winsor campaign on safe and sane lines, with business methods has proceeded rapidly. Literature is being printed and mailed out to a list of 5O,OOO voters, a real list, secured by a good deal of care and expense. The Winsor Home County for Governor Grub is an active or ganization with big potentiali- ties for effective work. The Winsor headquarters occupying suite of rooms in the Shields building, is one of the busiest places in Yuma.
 One of the most gratifying features of the campaign to date, is the very great cordiality with which Senator Winsor's candidacy has been received by his home people. Democrats and Republicans alike have de clared that they will vote for Winsor. Of course the Repub- l1cans who have registered as Republicans can not vote for him in the primary, but they state openly and above board that they will vote for the Yuma candidate for Governor in the November election. Dozens of prominent Republicans have personally made this statement to the editor of The Sun. The support from the Democratic voters of Yuma county which will be accorded Senator Winsor at the primary election will be practically unanimous.

A number of friends gathered at a hotel late this afternoon to convey their best wiSbeS to the minister be- fore his departure. Mir. Hunt had little to say to the press aside from asking that the circu- lation departments of a daily and a weekly newspaper be re- quested to forward papers to the legation at Bangkok He did, however, outline his voyage which will take him to number of Chinese and straits ports be- fore he reaches his destination.
