earn 100000 extra votes over and
above the regular votes allowed on
each subscription. There is no limit
to the number Of clubs a candidate
may turn in.
Ii a candidate has done well pre-
vious to this time he will want to put
forth still greater effort now in order
to protect his previous work, and be
the winner of the special $25 cash
prize in addition to one of the capital
prizes. On the other hand, those who,
for any reason, have not done as well
as they might have up to this time,
will be wise to enter intellectually
into the race with all its exhilaration
and unprecedented reward.
New Determination Shown
Many candidates who call at the
campaign department are expressing
new determination to put forth their
best efforts during this important per-
iod, which ends Wednesday, August %
at 9 o. M. Letters from candidates in
the outside districts and their friends
filled with the same sort of enthus-
iasm make one believe that the re-
! mainder of the race will be more
spirited and exceedingly close.
About four weeks and this interest
ing campaign will come to close and
the stupendous list of prizes will be
distributed.
The second period is now in force
and will be until August %. After
August % we will be in the third per-
iod, and as you know, the votes are
going down, down, down. The sched-
ule is very sharply reduced in antici-
patton of the lowest vote schedule of
! the entire campaign, which is effec-
tive in the final period.
The longer you delay in getting in
"full swing" the less valuable your
subscriptions will be from a vote
standpoint. And this is what you are
after votes, or you should be after
them if you expect to be one of the
big prize winners. The Gazette's
prizes are distributed to those who
deserve them, to those who make the
best records in the vote column. As
we said before wishes won't get any
where in this campaign" but the vote
producers will be handsomely reward
ed in accordance with the effort put
forth. This is a campaign for Give
| Ones"
Who Will Win the Big Prizes?
On the streets, in the homes, in the
stores in fact everywhere people con-
gregate, the topic under discussion is
who will win the big prizes. The race
| is so close at this time that it is sur
prising how many of the favorites are
picked to win the big prizes. This is
probably due to the fact that most
candidates have such splendid vote
scores that a few subscriptions in
favor Of any contender would make a
new leader in the race. Every candi-
date has his or her loyal friends and
workers. There seems to be more real
interest and more enthusiastic sup
port for the different hustlers than
were ever seen in any political cam
paign. 1t is a truly wonderful race

A FRIENDLY ADMINISTRATION.

Gov Troy, returning home, was delighted to re-
port all official Washington" entertaining friend
~ attitude toward Alacka. He found everywhere
genuine and sympathetic interest in the Territory
and its normal we'll its emergency problems,
and desire the part of all the Administration
from top to bottom to be of aid here. That Is,
indeed a welcome and encouraging report 1t
nstils confidence in Alaskans to go ahead in their
work to develop another great State here on the
last American frontier
1t is especially gratifying to know that Secretary
Ickes of the Interior Department, which is most
largely concerned with Alaskan affairs, is particularly
interested in the Territory. Carrying probably a
larger load OF official burdens than any man in
Washington except President Roosevelt, from his re-
sponsbility Public Works Administrator and head
of the Board administering the oil code which is in
addition his regular duties. the Secretary is one
of the busiest of Yet, despite all of this
vital work he has found time to give Alaska much
thought
In the past eight ten months, we have had
many evidences of the friendly attitude of which
the Governor spoke Many hundreds of residents
at work today because of it, Roads and trails
have been built, old have been improved, much
beneficial work is being done public property
and will be done. All in all, Alaska has
shared abundantly at the Administrations hands
in the sort of aid that is about the only means
left just now to combat want and distress.

his outstanding characteristics He had many friends
because he himself the friend of many. He was
true disciple of Hippocrates. He of the
vanishing type OF the oldtime family physician. No
call that came to him was neglected. The question
of fee and its payment never entered his mind. His
mission was to relieve the suffering if it within
his power and he honestly and earnestly under
took to carry it out.
Adult and child loved him Perhaps his closest
contacts were with children. He made companions
of them, shared their troubles and their joys with
them. His untimely passing is distinct loss to
the community He will be sorely missed by many.

DAILY Journal of Commerce, Seattle)
program of material assistance to business
recovery in the Northwest has been announced by
the Seattle Chamber of Commerce. 1t is known as
the 1884 Pacific Northwest Recovery Program -
The principal objective OF the Chamber is the Sc
curing OF S600000O0 in additional funds for needed
work The program is not local 1t will be Of
benefit to the entire Pacific Northwest And since
the program is general in scope it is only fair that
generous support should be given the Chamber in
what certain to be effective efforts toward
the obtaining of the Federal funds sought
The Federal Government has pointed the way
toward recovery Vast public projects labor absorb
ing projects, are to be financed by the Government
Unemployed will be put to work Purchasing power
will be increased and thereby private industry will
be permitted to start the wheels turning again.
The areas that are backward whose people
have well balanced public works programs will
not progress will the territory which the Seattle
Chamber of Commerce serves
Aside from obtaining the additional $50 900 900
Federal funds the Chamber of Commerce is launch
ing preliminary plans for attracting hundreds of
thousands of tourists to the Pacific Northwest in
1884 The tourists will not only bring new money,
but many will be SO impressed with this that
they Will make their permanent homes here.
The Seattle Chamber of Commerce has the facili-
ties with which to put through its constructive
program next year. AS individuals we can do little
towards general recovery. The Chamber has a
Washington, D. c., office and most valuable con-
facts there with influential officials
The Seattle Chamber of Commerce is not pro-
vincal. 1t seeks to the State and the entire
Northwest well Alaska. 1t is an organiza-
ton whose record is of accomplishment. All
should support the Chamber in its 1894 Pacfic
Northwest Recovery Program" All should know what
next years program involves For many years the
Seattle Chamber of Commerce has been providing
leadership At this time the organization is in
position to work most advantageously for the good
of all citizens The cooperation sought by the
Chamber should be willingly given and thus the
organization can be more powerful force working
for the attainment of those things which all
recognize absolutely imperative if business re-
covery is to become an actuaty.

Grafton certainly involves a considerable
element of risk both to prosperity and

gold standard might be able to survive
another unsuccessful world attempt to
establish it, A proposal to provide some
method for making future necessary changes
in the price of gold without the necessity
of long years of economic distress and
political agitation would seem to be a con-

to have a chance of survival, it requires
some kind of safety valve.
Calling attention to the scramble for gold among
all countries, the possibilities of sudden movement
of gold from one country to another, the great
development of foreign investments, which at any
time may be shifted, and the war uncertainties
and the desire for gold for military purposes, Prof
Warren said these indicated fluctuations in the
value of gold to be expected. And, he added,
it is to be expected that these fluctuations will be
around high value.
