BOV BBIOV I THE IRREPRESSIBLE RULER OF ALASKA, ASKS FOR CONGRESS To Send A Committee Out To Hu Gold Fields. Seattle, Wash., Dec. I—lna recent interview Governor John G. Brady, of, Alaska, said: ‘‘The business men and officials of Alas ka are concerned in effecting some change or aplication of the laws as they are at present in force. “They will combine to submit to Congress a proposition to au thorize the appointmet of a com mittee which will considder the needs of Alaska on the ground. My idea is that the committee •honld consist of a Senator a Re presentative and three bona fide residents of Alaska. “If we were able to get a com mittee something may be accom plished for the public good of. Alaska. Otherwise the time de voted to Alaska will be frittered away in the consideration of in dividual bills of no benefit to the country as a whole. “Many think Alaska should have a territorial form of gov ernment The objections to this are manifold chief among them is the sparse population of this country. A terutory m-a- s taxa tion and the people are not there co be taxed. It would be of lit tle avail to submit to Congress resolutions for a change in the code now in existence. These things must be investi gated by a committee which can ascertain the needs of the peo ple by personal observation.

The doctors said I had Cancer of the most malignant type, and after ex hausting their efforts without doing me any good, they gave op the case as hopeless. When in formed that my father had died from the same disease, they said I must die, as hereditary Cancer was incurable. “At this crisis, J was advised to try S.S.S., and in a short while the Cancer began to discharge and continued todo •o for three months, then it began to heal.

Misdemeanor Convict Gareds eqr. Atlanta, Dec .1— Speaker Jenk ins believes the house will pass a convict bdl. After the oft-repeated and ii < flV.dual efforts to legislate n that direction, 't is interesting t<> know that one sr whII informed on all public matters and so in touch with the sentiment f the h use believes the knottv problem will be settled by the present leg islature. Tn an interview granted a Jour nal representative, Speaker Jenk ins said: “There will certainly be legisla ‘i"D on this question. The house •vil' pass a convict bill before the expiration of the session.” Wh“n asked what be believed wnld bo the rrture of the meas ure Mr Jenkins replied. “The nldebodied convicts will be "gain leased. The aged, infirm and wnanen convicts will bi pined on a farm and the earnings over and above their own maintenance will bo devoted to the support of public institutions. “ M sdemeanor convicts will be hired out either in the county of tneir conviction to parties or will he sent to the state farm, “All misdemeanor convicts will he under state supervision and control.” The above, Speaker Jenkins is confident, will be the text of the bi’l which th > legis’ature will pass for settlement of the convict question. This suits the proposed cen tral p nitentiary, and the prison commission, the two most im portant provisions of the reform measure which has been under consideration for two weeks. Tin-only suggestion of reform in the legislation to which Speaker Jenkins looks forward is in the farm for the women, boys and infirm convicts, and in the super vision and control by the state of misdemeanor convict*. fjIOOD POISON 4 ><»!> I'OJSON permanently ’ days. can be treated at 11 4 ‘D’o piiceiirjt t pnmesrutirau* •I; i .to come hero wc will cot> ; y railroad fareandbt.tol bills and *1 to cure.
