THOUSANDS HAVE KIDNEY : TROUBLE AND NEVER
 SUSPECT IT re
Applicants For Insurance Often >i Rejected

,s Judging from reports from drug. gfsts who are constantly in direct touch with the public, there is one preparation that has been very sue cessful in overcoming these condi- tions. The mild and healing in- fluence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the high est for its remarkable record of sue cess.
 An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies. in an interview of the subject, made the astonishing state ,ment that one reason why so many applicants for insurance are reject ed is because kidney trouble is so common to the American people. and the large majority of those whose applications are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease. It is on sale at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes, med tum and large.
 z However, if you wish to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. .Kilmer &Co., Binghamton, N. Y, tor |, sample bottle: When writ ing be sure and mention the Alaska Daily Empire. Juneau. Alaska .--adv.

POLES BESIECINC AMERICAN CONSUL
 FOR PASSPORTS
Hordes Seeking Entrance Into United States Before
 Bars Are Put Up.

WARSAW, April 15.-Crowds .of besieging daily the wise bureau of the American Consulate here to ob- tain the Consul's wise of their pass ports to the United States. For months there have been large num- bers of applicants waiting at the bureau every morning. but since the latter part of February the crowds have been increasing, owing to the vague and sdisthrbing rumors which have been circulated thrpughout Pc land of restrictive legislation pend ing in the United States Congress.
 Herded together by relatives or organizations endeavoring to get per mission for these persons to enter an American port before the ru- mored legislation became effective, the hopeful emigrants invaded War saw by every train. They were mostly women and children They came not only from, various parts of Poland, some of them were refugees from the Ukraine and other nearby parts of Russia
 Unable to obtain accommodation in lodging houses or hotels owing ts the crowded condition of the city many of them made their headquer ters in the railroad stations whera they slept upon the floors or cn benches Or chairs.
 The number of vises granted h9 the Americans here is about 200 q hay. This is much less than forme-- lv and the reduction is due to the Polish passport frauds uncovered sometime ago and also to the ire 1uent presentation of fraudulent documents of Identification.
 For time it WAS possible to pur- chase g counterfeit Polish passport for few dollars, but most of the ringleaders of this fraudulent plan have been arrested and are await ing trial in the Polish courts.
 Hundreds of Uiranian passport have been sold recently in Lembere and in other cities of the new Re nublics of Central Europe for a few dollars each to refugees from Rus sia eager to reach the United States The Ukranian nassport. however. is not recognized by the United States f,onsulates on the ground that there is no organized Ukranian govern ment.
