chamberlain's Collie and Diarrhoea
Remedy.

This is unquestionably one of the
most successful medicines in use for
bowel complaints. A few doses of it
will cure an ordinary attack of di-
arrhoea. It has been used in nine ep-
idemics of 'dysentery with perfect
success. 1t can always be depended
upon to give prompt relief in cases
of collie and cholera morbus. When
reduced with water and sweetened
it is pleasant to take. Every family
should keep this remedy at hand.

While in conversation with Hon. J. R. Hickman Sunday that successful business man told us that he is now paying exactly three times as much per inch for advertising in Ketchikan as he was two years ago. He said that in view of the present high price of paper and increased operating expense it would not be possible to successfully publish an eight page paper in Ketchikan unless high rates were charged.
 AS a concrete example of what the newspapers are up against in the way of operating expense we will state that it cost the large dailies outside one hundred dol lars cold cash to type and print the speech of acceptance of the democratic candidate for presi- dent.

 Texas has lately been develop ing its oil industry on a gigantic scale, and as there is a labor shortage there we will find many city jobs open. Therefore, it will not be long before we are sitting by our family's side recounting our interesting experiences in Alaska, the wonderland of the Golden North.

Editor Wrangell Sentinel:
 We desire space in your valu- able paper and are willing to pay for same for the purpose of ex- pressing ourselves on one or two matters before leaving this north. land.
 In the month of May our party which is composed of 45 young men of Mexican descent, arrived here from our beloved home in San Antonio, Texas, to spend the season working for the Alaska Packers association.
 We came to Alaska as a little adventure because we wanted to see what the far north was like. Unfortunately, the change of climate did not agree with us at first, as several of our number were quite sick following our ar- rival here. But owing to the skiIlful treatment of the company doctor, Dr. s. c. Shurick, we soon recovered and were again enjoying our usual good health. Dr. Shurick was so attentive and tender and kind to us when we were so far away from our par ents and relatives that the die. tates of our hearts would not per init us to take leave of this coun- try without first executing a pub lie acknowledgement of our pro- found gratitude to our benefactor. On account of his skill and be- nightly he merits and no doubt will achieve distinction in the eX- ercise of his noble profession. We ardently desire for this mo- table citizen of this northern port a long life of health and happi- ness.
 We are leaving this week for San Francisco. After passing through the Golden Gate we will go straight to San Antonio. We have enjoyed this trip very much. It has been somewhat in the na- ture of a vacation. The wonder full scenery here especially claims our attention. This northland differs vastly from the plains and fields of Texas. Therefore, we will have much to tell when we get back home. If we are able to arrange our affairs as we wish, we are coming back again next year. And if we do come, we will come prepared with a good baseball team and a good bunch of sports so that we may be well greeted, and make next years sojourn even happier than this one has been.
 We hope this little town will grow fast, for it has for its ad- vantages a very picturesque site, and is an ideal place for tourists and all kinds of hunting and fish ing sports.
 When we get back to the Lone Star State we will have good crop of corn, cane, and cotton

One of the best newspapers that comes to our exchange table is the Valdez Miner. Hal B. Selby, the editor and publisher, is an able writer and an excellent printer. Yet Brother Selby, not withstanding his versatility and the liberal support of the business men of his city. acknowledges through his columns that there is uncertainty as to the continued existence of his paper unless something is done to relieve the paper crisis.

Five little Indian girls from far up in the Arctic Circle at Rampant House, arrived at Dawson a short time ago and got their first glimpse of civilization. They had never before seen electric lights, and horses they followed around all day, calling them big dogs. Bicycles were also a wonderful sight to them. The little girls were brought out by Bishop Stringer and placed in the Indian school at Carcross.

There are certain issues that rise

drafting of the league and covenant.
When the covenant was in the max
ing ex-President Taft asked for and
was gladly accorded the privilege of
suggesting provisions. He cabled six
suggestions and all were adopted.
Ex-Justice Charles E. Hughes, Mr..
Wilson's Republican opponent in the
presidential campaign of 1916, made
five suggestions, all of which were
adopted.
Ex-Secretary of State Elihu Root
cabled over Article XIII which was
adopted verbatim. The American
peace delegation in Paris submitted
all the articles of the covenant to Mr..
Root in 1919. After considering them
he cabled through the State Depart
ment to Paris the following as to Ar
ticle X: Suggest you add to Article X
the following: After the expiration
of five years from the signing of this
convention, any party may terminate
it's obligations under this article by
giving one years notice in writing to
the secretary general of the League"
This was Roots only Suggestion
and it was not only taken care of but
withdrawal made even easier as fol-
lows: "Any member of the League
may, after two years notice of its in
tention to do so, withdraw from the
League"
Article X-as it was first drawn
and stands to-day: "The members of
the League undertake to respect and
preserve as against external aggres-
sion the territorial integrity and exist
ing political independence of all men,
bers of the League. In case of any
such aggression or in case of any
threat or danger of such aggression
the Council shall advise upon the
means of which this obligation shall
he fulfilled"
Who said all this?
"All who have pressed for League
of Nations to maintain peace and pre-
vent war must thank God as they
read the provisions of the constitu-
ton of the League upon which the ma
ltions in conference at Paris have
lagreed.
