Do not vote for representatives Of the BANKS, to-wit: First National Bank of Juneau; Bank of Peters burg, and agent for the PETERS EURG PACKING COMPANY of Pe- tersburg; BANK OF ALASKA, of Wrangell. ALLIED INSURANCE, of Juneau.
 Representatives of banks do not give much consideration to. the needs and wishes of the people, The first consideration they bow to is the power of money.
 The efforts of Delegate Suther- land needs no comment from us to the labor constituency His effort has incurred the enmity of the if nancial interests. Judging a man by the enemies he has lined up against him shows in what line he is work ing. Did Sutherland ignore the de- sire of the mass of the people of the territory, did he oppose the wish for a better control of the fisheries, the rank and file would desert him in starter Did he favor the ''reserva- tion" system of parcelling out our fisheries to the favored few, as Sec. Hoover attempted to do a couple of years ago, the fishermen and the la boring men would not go across the street to vot for him. What is true of the general run of electors in the Territory is true of the so- called mass voting" of the Indians
 The record Dan Sutherland has made in his term in Congress is the record his friends and true Alas arc proud of. He has fought a good fight, he has kept the faith, he has represented the smaller man and the bigger man fairly. Were heless fair in his work and effort to truly re- present the Territory, he would not have incurred the enmity of the f. nancial interests of Seattle, San Francisco and Chicago
 The legislative ticket are men tried and true. Everyone has labor in the Territory and each enc is ac- quainted with the problems which cause depletion of fish and popula- ticn. They are fair minded men. They are capable men, They are men who have minds of their own and they owe no allegiance to any bank or corporate interest. They will go ,o the legislature with thought of tlIC UCOl lHIOl Col OI LIIO CI 1IOl ct large and their efforts will be bent that way. For any man to say that Charley Benjamin will knuckle down to dictation from any man is to de- c.are him a veritabel cheechakoo. Who says that William Worth call of dictator does not know Worth. So on with the rest of the Republican ticket. They are men with thought of the best interest of the Territory first, last and always.

my youngest boy, and I need your

and selected a blouse from stock to
illustrate his reply.
Look here" he said, "at the collar.
Manufacturers want your little fellow
to be comfortable in his blouse. and
they've put d vent in the collar at
the opening. 1t allows the collar to
sit easily and comfortably. and leaves
room for sons tie. Watch out for
blouses that pull tightly together; they
always ride and catch son under the

said, Notice that there aren't any

Clues to Character
By ]. o. ABERNETHY.

This faculty gives the mechanic and
inventor the capacity for building.
modelling and running machinery
Constructiveness gives an innate per-
ception Of the laws and operation of
natural mechanical forces,
When this faculty Is large you Will
have an urge to build, invent, to con-
struct, put together and improve
things. Sometimes this trait mani
tests itself along mechanical lines,
sometimes in business, in art, in mu-
sic and often In literature. An excess
OF this faculty, il not balanced by rea-
son, leads to impractical inventions
and useless mechanical contrivances.
In the raw-boned, heavy -jawed,
broad-chinned type the constructive
ability inclines toward mechanical
lines. In the fat man this ability
trends toward creating things condu-
Give to physical comfort.
The faculty Of construction Is seen
in the forehead. on the outer edge,
about two-thirds UP the forehead be-
low the hair line. If this region Is
broad, we'll filled out, you will know
that here Is constructive ability.

at Fort Island to attack them. On
Wednesday. about O'Clock in the
afternoon, the galleys hove in sight of
the men'of-war and about began
the attack. which brought on a very
heavy cannonading on both sides, that
lasted three or four hours, when the
ROebuck ran aground and the Liver
pool came to anchor to cover her.
1t being then dark. the firing ceased
on both sides and In the course of
the night the Roebuck got off. Dur

day before and took n brig in the
employ OF the pirates.
On Thursday afternoon, at 5 O'clock,
the galleys renewed their attacks OH
the Warships with so much spirit and
skill that they obliged the ships to
make the best of their way down the
river. The boats pursued the war
ships keeping up q constant fire till
they got below Newcastle, six miles
from the place Of action, where the
boats moored for that night. The
warships have since gone further
down the river.
Wo are well assured, by a gentle
man who has since been alongside OF
the ships, that our cannon did great
execution to their hulls, and that they
were Obliged to keep their carpenters
patching and mending for two days
after. Several Of our armed boats were
slightly damaged. One man was killed
in the first engagement, and two
wounded In the second. The greatest
praises were given to the courage and
spirit of our officers and men, by the
many thousand spectators, who lined
the shore on both sides of the river.

gaueys were little more than floating
platforms, sometimes propelled by
oars only, but occasionally they had

DAYTON, Ohio.
Please tell US how the Jews and
Christians are going to arrive at a
common understanding under the
Fatherhood Of God without going
through Jesus as. the Christ TO get
there. He tells us that all power in
heaven and earth is given unto Him,
and that no man, not even the Jew,
cometh unto the Father but by Him.
He says further that only thieves
and robbers try any other way. and
that to deny Him is to deny God who
sent Him.
Answer-The influence OF Jesus ex-
tends far beyond the bounds where
lie is consciously accepted as Lord.
II is true that He said no man could
come to the Father except by Him.
But He also spoke of His 'other
sheep which were mot Of this fold"
A person may realize the Father
hood Of God as proclaimed by Jesus
without recognizing that he owes this
great truth TO Jesus. Indeed, II IS
impossible to live in a Christian land
and not ba affected TO some extent
by Christian ideas.
AS q matter OF fact, Jews and Chris
tianS may share tt common attitude
10 God while yet having a radically
different attitude toward Jesus. They
may agree on much that He said
about the Father and disagree con-
cerning what He said of Himself. Yet
there is today in many Jewish circles
an increasing appreciation OF Jesus
as u great prophet of the chosen race.
We who believe He was the reyela-
ton of the Father TO all men can fos-
ter that appreciation and rejoice in
the progress Of the fraternity He died
to establish.
Those who also believe that Jesus
reigns forever in the Kingdom Of the
Spirit consequently believe that He
direct the beneficial movements Of
every age. Is not the coming together
of Jews and Christians on a. common
theistic basis an exhibition Of His
gracious power?
