Like many local women, Mrs.
Mary Ogle is so grateful for her re-
lease from a life of pain she wants
every one to be helped and so tells
her story: II have always said and
always will say that Tanlac saved
my life. Few people have suffered
as 1 have with stomach troubles in
the last ten years. The gas nearly
kills me. I would be deathly sick
and in bed sometimes for weeks at
a time. My stomach was sore all
the time, the gas would form and
collect right in the side and cut like
a knife. Sour stomach and gases
almost choked me to death and
bothered my heart. Meat and pota-
toes were forbidden. I spent lots
of money, but my suffering in
creased instead Of getting better.

Certainly harder task could not
have been found for Tanlac, yet this
medicine has succeeded and as I
said, saved my life. My stomach
troubles have yielded, I have a good
digestion and best of all is relief
from gases. I eat everything and
gained so much in strength that I
look like different person. In best
health in ten years, that expresses
it and tells the story Of what Tan
lac has done for me-" Just the first
dose or two of Tanlac will bring re-
lief that viii amaze you. Tanlac is
a real medicine based on modern
medical science. Like everything
good it has its weak and ineffective
imitators. So do not accept a substi-
tute. Tanlac must help you or.
money back. at all druggists. ..<s.

METLAKATLA INDIAN IS ORDAINED AS PRIEST BY BISHOP ROWE

Ordination services eonferring priesthood on Paul Mather, a full blooded Alaska Indian, were held in St. Elizabeth's Church at Metlakat- la last Sunday morning, with Bish- op P T. Rowe officiating. He wus assisted by Dean Charles E. Rice of Juneau, Rev. H. P. Conser of Wrangell and Rev. Carpenter of Ketchikan. Special music was fur nished by the St. Elizabeth's choir of 40 trained voices.
 Rev. Mather is the son of Ed ward and Alice Mather, members of the Tsimpsian tribe, and was born some fifty years ago at Met lakatla He was seven years old when Father Duncan moved his fol- lowers to the present town of Met lakatla. About a yean ago he was ordained as a deacon by Bishop Rowe.

TRY AND GET IT

Tn all criminal prosecutions the accused shall enjoy the right of a speedy and public trial"
 Thus reads the Constitution of the United States. The precise meaning of this clause has never ceased to be a matter for contro- versy.
 Last March two ex-service men. Sam and Pete Turner, were served with a warrant charging them with assault with a dangerous weapon, and arson; both of which crimes were alleged to have been commit ted a year previous at Craig. They were taken to Ketchikan for hear ing before the U. s. commissioner, and in default of the SS000 cash bond they were remanded to jail to await the action of grand jury.
 While they were in jail they pe- titioned the court for a hearing, but it was denied. After serving eight months in jail their case came before the grand iuny, and the evil dence was so fiimsy, and so patent ly the work of spite, that the case was thrown out.
 Released from jail with their honor vindicated-but minus the income from a summers work-the two brothers were informed that, since they had not served a term in jail as punishment for chime committed, they must pay their own fares back to Craig, whence the government had so kindly trans ported them free of charge.
 We aps unable to judge the mer- it's of the case because it never came to trial, but these two men seem to have served eight months in jail because of their insolvency. Had they been progressive criminals they doubtless could have found someone to vouch for them until their case came to trial. One sell dom hears of reputable bootleg ger going to jail for want of a bondsman.
 Apparently there is nothing that can be done about this bare-faced injustice-this slap in the face from a federal government too busy with momentous deals in the seats of the mighty to be very much con- cerned about a little thing like in- diYidual justice-the Constitution to the contrary notwithstanding. Small wonder that the seeds of radicalism find fertile growth in soil stirred by such callous injus- tiee as this.

EVEN ROBINSON CRUSOE
 ADVERTISED

When he was exiled on an island one of Robinson Crusoe's first acts was to advertise. His advertise ment was not newspaper ad, but an outdoor form of publicity. He hung his shirt on a pole at the waters edge and awaited results. Circulation was very poor, but he did not take his ad out because re- suits were not immediate. He left the ad "in" for a long time and eventually it got results. A pass ing ship saw the ad and took Rob- inson back to civilization.
 The merchant of today by regu- lar and consistent advertising can also gets results, for he has advan- tage of modern newspaper advertis- ing and good circulation, which guarantees that his message goes into the homes of the community comprising his trade radius.

TROLLERS PROTEST SEIZURE OF BOATS

Fishermen who man the big fleet of salmon trollers operating from Puget Sound held a mass meeting at Eagles Hall last week to protest the recent seizure and confscation of the trollers Tillie M, Sunrise, Queen City and May by the Cana dian government. Funds will be raised for a legal battle for release of the four American vessels. It is planned to carry the cases to the higher courts at Ottawa
 The owners of the Ti11ie M, the Sunrise and Queen City say they had entered Canadian waters to seek shelter in the lee of Graham Island. The owners of the May say the vessel was outside the three mile limit when she was seized. The state departmnt at Washington, D. C.. will be appealed to for relief, the fishermen said. The salmon trollers seized range in value from s5,OOO to s2O,O0O each.-Alaskan.

Miners Tunnel Thru Glacier For Rich Ore
STEAM PIPES HEATED BY BIG BLOW TORCH THAW THROUGH CHICKAMIN GLACIER

With more than $50 feet of ice tunnel run in the effort to locate the source of the bonanza float gold ore found on the property at inter vals in the past, operations on the Marietta group near the head of Texas Creek valley are making ex- ceIIent progress and with encour- aging results, according to the Fly der Herald. The ice tunnels have been run through an overlapping spur of Chiekamin Glacier to pick up the intersections of several veins running under the ice and which may be the source of the pieces of float running many thousands Of dollars per ton in free gold. Pieces of this ore are literally speckled with large flakes and blobs of the yellow metal and present a decided spectacular appearance. The belief of the Marietta owners that the source of this gold lies somewhere under the ice cap has been en- hanced several times during the driving of the ice tunnels by the discovery of additional samples of the same OCT.
 Two tunnels have been driven through the ice since work was be- gun. The first or lower tunnel was put in a distance of 110 feet. A crosscut from this tunnel follow ing the rock on which the glacier rests missed the lead by 110 feet, owing to the contour of the coun- try. When located later the lead was found to contain values 50 per cent lower than were found in the lead 400 feet down the hill, where it emegres from under the ice. Some good high grade float was encountered, however, and it was believed to have come from farther up the hill.

A SURE CURE
October 2s, 1880

October 2S, lSS0 Friend Bert:
 I have heard that some of the old dudes around town have been investigating the merits of monkey glands.
 Before they go into too much ex- pense along that line, advise them to drop down to my clam cannery and get a snort or so of good hot clam nectar.
 It is guaranteed to cure any ail- ment.
 It will make you go home and rob your own trunk, kick over the cook stove. chase the hired girl out of the house and heaye the old lady through the window In fact a two-year-old can't kick up as many antics as the dude who fol- lows the above directions. Canes, crutches and bald heads will go into the discard. It will grow hair on a door knob, not to mention your bosom, and in fact it is so ef- ficient that I have had to have a traffic cop on the job in the can nery.
 I hate to admit that any of our esteemed citizens really need any such rejuyenator, but won't be a bit surprised if the Citizens wharf won't be able to handle the crowd. Here's to the welfare of all our friends.
 Sincerely yours,
