Last Minute News Flashes

Liberal Party Still for Free Trade.
Manchester Guardian.0

The annual report of the Liberal Federation the forty ninth-deals with the political events of the year. It notes that since the election it has become apparent that all the understandings and pledges which led millions of Liberals to vote Con- servative have gone for nothing, in face of the pressure from overwhelming Conservative major ity; and thus, without any definite appeal to the electorate on this subject, Free Trade has been destroyed by Government which the Liberal party helped to establish and which includes Liberal Headers.
 The declaration defining Liberalism and it's tasks in the new era, which forms the first of the reso- lutions to be put before the Conference includes the following:
 Liberalism believes that self-reliant individual energy is the of all progress and its aim lis to create the positive conditions which will enable every and woman to make the most and the best of their own powers This cannot but be prevented either by policy which aims at the rigid regmentaton of human activities under the control of the State by a policy dictated by Ideference to vested interests to wealth and to cannot and will not base itself upon any class however rich numerous, however powerful or well organized
 Liberalism regards trade not a form of con- flict between nations but means of conferring mutual benefits. It believes that an unimagined material prosperity would to the world if the products of everybody's honest work were freely Interchangeable for the products of everybody eses honest work. Meanwhile it believes that any nation which will give to its people unrestricted access to all that the world produces will do best for its own people and for the world at large.

DON'T FORGET JIM CONNORS.

Juneau Democrats ought to vote unanimously for James J. Oonnors for National Committeeman If the Democrats should carry the National election the position of National Committeeman will be very important. MT. Connors is a man that meets the requirements of important matters splendidly. He has served Juneau City Councilman and Mayor time after time and he was never found wanting m any particular. He is of sound judgment and splendid courage He is sturdily honest and honorable His word is good as a bond He is thorough Alaskan, and able representative of the Tarritorys best interests. AS Alaska's member of the National Committee he has been energetic. on the square and working for his party and the Territory all the time. The Democrats of Alaska could search with fine tooth comb and find no one better qualified in every way to represent them on their National Committee

DISREGARD SCANDAL MONGERS AND
 MUDSLINGERS.

One thing the voters ought to remember above all others when they go to the polls Tuesday: They should guard themselves against being carried off their balance by the rawlings of scandal mongers and mudslingers. They know the candidates who are running for office, and they know the charges of thsoe Ketchikan people who have been smothering the Territory with sanderous mimeographed circulars regarding Democratic candidates are not true The charges ought to be wholly disregarded
 Senator Dimond in his Juneau speech said he did not ask anyone to vote for him on account of personal friendship He asked for the votes of those who believe he would make the best Delegate to Congress That ought to be the standard by which voters measure the candidates They ought to study well the list of candidates and they ought to pick out those whom they believe would serve thsm best and cast their votes accordingly

 Ben Franklin made himself immortal teaching the people the high art of saving Save your money, he said, and escape your troubles Those were the days when food and raiment came hard The food was dug from the soil with crude blow and a hoe. The clothing was got by laborous spinning and weaving by hand. Such a thing as "over- production" of necessaries was unknown Savings the making of necessary capital, came hard
 Save, save, Poor Richard said The good citizen was the citizen who bought little and 'hoarded" as much he possibly could Had there been safety deposit boxes in those days, Ben Franklin would have been for voting them a subsidy

NO OFFICES PROMISED.

In another column today Democratic National Committeeman James J. Connors declares that the Democratic organization in Alaska has promised no office to any one in the event of Democratic suc- cess. He says the Democratic organization does not parcel out offices behind closed doors If the Demo- crats should win the National election he says there will be square deal and an equal opportunity for everybody The purpose will be to let the officials be selected by the Democrats of the Territory. He believes that each Division ought to pick the men that to the Division and the Territory at large do that service for the Territorial offices
 As Mir Connors well says the discussion of candi- dates for appointive offices would be decidedly premature. The first thing is to win the election There will be plenty of good men for all the offices when the time comes, if it does come and every one of them will have equal opportunity.

SHORT NAMES FOR HEADLINES.

If Gov. Roosevelt ever becomes President that nine letter name will try the temper of many headline writers Short names make building news heads easy. Hoover is convenient So was Wilson Taft was a constant delight The former President Roosevelt was not bad because all newspaper men claimed the right to treat him familiarly and they had recourse to Teddy" In New York they call their Governor Prank but the people generally are not sufficiently familiar with him to put up with such informaity, and then there are too many Franks" to make it distinctive
 That suggests that there have been few recent Presidents and none among the early ones who had the peculiar characteristics that made nick names popular. Old Hickory was the first President to have a nickname that generally used "T1ppe- canoe, Rough and Ready" or "Old Zach" and
 Old Abe were popular for much the same reasons that caused people to like to call Gen Jackson old Hickory" They, too, rugged frontiersmen People were familiar with Frank" Pierce and "Old Buck" for other reasons They were mixers, hail fellows, popular with 'the boys"
 There have been nick-names for practically all the Preidents, but since the days of "Old Abe" there has been but that was generally used There was occasional use of Unconditional Sur renderg Grant Honest Grover" and others but only Teddy" was accepted by those of all classes It was suggestive of the type of the man it was applied to.

 BARGAINS

We have just received a few more diamonds from a Hollywood Broker and they are just as good bargains as the others. Our cus- toners for those are highly pleased and they should be as we have seen nothing to compare to these values in our thirty years in the diamond business.
 This price condition is only tenn porary. The Diamond Syndicate has not reduced prices one cent. They are doing just as they did when the Russian Debacle threw so many diamonds on the market. They simply said Our price is the same" and waited until the distress goods were reabSorbed and then we paid the same. Diamonds at these prices are better buy than any bond or stock on the market as any firm may go broke but the world will not, and lovers will always buy diamonds.
 We have fine white perfect 94 hundreds for $275.00, usually worth about six hundred It is in an old fashioned Tiffany mounting such as your mother wore. and will need resetting. A fine white perfect 76I hundreds for $150.OO in real Snappy modern mounting is anoth- CT opportunity. Also a wonderful forty-two hundreds for seventy dol lars.
 We haven't the least doubt we will be glad to pay the purchaser of these a nice little profit on them in couple of years. If you are interested come in and have a look as there is no obligation to buy. The terms are cash or gilt-edge security as we must either return the stones or the money promptly.

 He did not look at her. He had walked to the window and he stood there his back to the room.
 Things have come up.p he wens on, vaguely, his tone uncon- vincing. "You'll have to explain to Phil. I've telegraphed him. Of course, you'll go just the same. D
 Kitty put her hands cut blind- ly, trying to catch something for support.
 @You don't wans to leave Marge, before she goes" She did not know that she had said it aloud Her throat felt too thick for speech. But she must have, for the words, the angry tone of them, hung in the air between them.

 He swung around. His face was dark, tortured, and there was an odd, unhappy pleading in his eyes as if he were mutely asking of Kitty something that he could not put into words.
