CAPT. !. C. GRAHAM |s
 OP7 jM|ST|C OVER THE INCREASE OF SUPPLIES

After many years of bringing sup plies to Alaska, believe we are real ly starting something according to the demand that it is developing to the Westward" said Captain Charles c. Graham of the Admiral Watson, one of the oldtime shippers of the North, in port yesterday. We brought about 1900 tons general cargo, most of which consists of machinery and cannery supplies for the ports to the west The folks up the railroad to- wards Fairbanks are also demanding things. We brought in nearly 4,000 ties for the railroad and about 100 tons of general stuff that goes up the line. However, I wouldn't be sur prised if there are some consignments' for the KoyOkuk and the Kuskokwim. !"
 Assisting Captain Graham are Pur- ser H. G. Williamson, Chief Engineer H. N Knoell, and Pilots E. Thomsen and A. L. Olsen. The passenger list leaving Seattle numbered about 130 of which a number were landed here. The ship proceeds to Port Graham, Seldovia, Shyak Strait, Uganik Bay, Uzinkie, Kodiak, Shearwater Bay, Three Saints Bay. At the latter place the ship leaves equipment for the new cannery that Is being made ready for operation there. There are two canneries at Uzinkie that are also being better equipped and enlarged. According to present schedule the Admiral Watsn will be back in Sew ard Sunday on her way Outside.

MEXICAN PAPER
ON
HAVANA PARLEY

MEXICO CITY, Jan. IA l(P1-
Excelsior predicts editorially that the
Havana conference will bring no
change in the policy OF the United
States toward Nicaragua.
In its news columns Excelsior says
that the Mexican delegation to the
Pam American conference will not
remain silent but, on the contrary,
will play a strong and important role
in the conference, befitting Mexicos
position in Latin American affairs, ii
the Nicaraguan and political ques
tions come before the conference"
The paper expects that President
Coolidge's speech will be "a hymn
of peace for Pan-American fraternity"
but expresses doubt as to its effect.
''This is not the remedy for Mic
aragua," continues Excelsior, "Sandino
and his heroic companions will be
annihilated. Violation of Nicaraguan
sovereignty will be consummated.
Again we will be shown that the
colossus OF the north does not respect
and does not wish to respect the
rights of little nations" t,
This belief, according to Excelsior,
exists among the people of the United
States as well as those OF Spanish
America.
1--WE hope that we are mistaken"
the paper concludes, land that the
conference may plant the roots OF
real fraternity among the peoples OF

A husband said to his weeping wife
AS he patted her permanent down
81 am going to mix in the stir and

Of the milling and madding town
And if it should happen, don't
come back,
Do not die from alright and shock
For it's more than likely you'll find
your Jack
In the hoose gov down the block
And when she cried: why, where
are yof going?''' . nam
He said with a Ieer that was ,evil1y
knowing:
"I'm going to a night club dear
And it will not be odd
If amid the din there should break in
A law enforcement squad.
The door they'll crash, the lights
they'll smash,
Perhaps they'll try to shoot me,
But never fear, my pretty dear,
They can't .electrocute me-"
A sorrowing wife in the morning sat
By a cell in a city Jail,
Which was where repoSed her hand
some Jack
AS he waited the needful bail;
His clothes were rent, he was black
and blue
From his heels to his tousled head
His tie was gone and his collar toe
And his eyes were extremely red,
And when she said: What hap
pened dear?"
He hoarsely whispered in her ear:
"The law enforcement squad broke in
The way I said they would,
They pulled the place and. Dashed
my face
Which did me little good
I will go today to a magistrate
Who sternly will harangue me
And spend spell in prison cell
But, gal, they dassen't nang mel!

WASHINGTON-The best govern
ment worker in Washington was
selected after contest for the honor
the other day and from among the
many thousands OF eligible men and
women who are giving faithful service
with nothing but financial reward
and very little of that, the judges
chose Miss Anna E. Black.
Miss Black has been in charge OF
the bureau of information of the
u. S., civil service commission since
1905. She has been in the govern
nent service here since 1891
Before telling why Miss Black was
chosen to be the best government
worker, let's tell how.
Editor Lowell Mellett OF the Wash
ington DAILY News decided that he
5WasE Etfed OF hearing government
workers attacked as clock watchers,
drones and what-not He said so
to Secretary of Commerce Hoover.
"Se am T. replied Hoover, and
began to tell Mellett OF long hours
of hard, intelligent work, OF work
at night without pay, OF men hanging
onto $500 jobs in the face OF $4,000
offers, OF girl stenographers and clerks
who rose to emergencies and new
important responsibilities Secretaries
of Labor Davis and Interior Work
told the editor of many other in
stances. So out came the Washington
News with an offer of a 5000 reward
for the federal employe doing the
best job and 500 more to the fellow
worker who would write the letter
OF nomination. The judges were

service commission, who won the 500
prize for the following carefully
corroborated letter about the subse-
quent winner OF the 5000 prize, Miss
Black:
"Slle influences the lives of more
persons than does any other employe
on the government roll. Ninety
thousand men and women, more than
the entire personnel of the Wash
ington' service, visit her annually She
draws out the essential facts about
their experience and suggests WHAT
positions they can best fill and how
to get them. Each visitor presents
ia different problem which calls for
sympathetic understanding which
Miss Black is admirably fitted to give.
Thousands who cannot come, write,
asking about appropriate examina-
tions. She maintains remarkable
mailing list OF more than 10000
names, including individuals in every
state
'She knows more about the general
work OF the government than any
other person. The public instinctively
thinks OF the civil service commission
as a source of information for the
entire service. Thousands appeal to
Miss Black for information on mis-
