Young women of healthy minds and bodies. That is the pressing need of Alaska today. So the chivalrous John G. Brady of that territory sends out in his annual report, just made public, an ap peal for young women to come to Alaska, hear the gentle words of love told by the mighty men of the northwest and to try home building. His is the true cry from the wild for wives. "As fine specimens of manhood as ever stood on two feet are they who would be come husbands." Declares this governor who ought to know. "All health and courage, they have come to a country in arch of a fortune. They have not been as successful as they ex pec ma, 'uul .y have not given up the struggle. Man was not made to live alone, even when pro specting." But why not return to the States for a wife? Governor Brady says they have too much pride to corns back to their old homes for a visit and a wife as long as they have not the fortune. THE ORIGINAL.

"It is noticed." says the govornor, "that schoolma'ams and other young women who come here do not reside in a place but a short time, before soma worthy ad mirer turns up and tells the old story. : A number of these chose matrimony during past year. There should be no such thing as race suicide in Alaska, where we have more than nine square miles per capita. But to get these young women, that is the question. Shall the government resort to importation of them, as women were brought to Virginia centuries fcgo to rr.ir ry the man who would pay her passage?" How to do it the governor can't decide. "It ia a delicate matter and not easy to arrange, but it is desirable to have more women of good mind and health to try tills :.?? nd home building," says he. "Those who have a love of children and a dssire to rear a family should learn what special advantages Alaska has to hold to them." It has been suggested Alaska would be a good place for a match-making mother to take her daughters. POLITICS IN BAKER COUNTY Sheriff H. K. Brown, of Baker county was in Salem yesterday, having brought a prisoner to the penitentiary. Mr. Brown has served two terms as sheriff of Baker county, and in pursuance of theunwritten law of that county, which prohibits a sheriff from serving more than two terms. he will retire at the expiration of his term next July. Mr. Brown says political candidates are the all-absorbing topics of interest in Baker county. Baker county candidates belieye in getting out early. In fact, this is a characteristic of all Eastern Oregon men. It was this spirit which caused Hon. C. A. Johns and Judge Robert Eakin to file their notices of intention' with the secretary of state at the earliest possible moment. Mr. Brown says the nomination for supreme judge is conceded to Judge Eak in by the Republicans . generally in the eastern part of the state. He has not heard of any Republican, he says, who aspires to the place in opposition to Judge Eakin. Locally the greatest interest centers in the circuit judgeship for the eighth district which comprises Baker county. This is a new district, which was created by the last legislature. Governor Chamberlain appointed Samuel White as judge to serve until the next election. Judge White is a candidate for election before the people, and will seek the Democratic nomination at the primary election in April. His Re publican opponent, in all probability, will be W. C. Drowley, of Drowley & Levens. Baker county is close when political lines are sharply drawn. For many years neither party has been able to elect a full county ticket. The judgeship contest promises to be an exciting one this year. County Judge Wallace Trayillion. who has held some office in the county for 50 years, will probably be a candidate for re-election on the Democratic ticket W. J. Lackner, who announced himself for congress, will in all probabilify be op posed in the Republican primary election by State Senator John L. Rand. The friends of Mr. Rand are urging him to consent to the use of his name, and he is seriously considering the proposition. J. H. Aiken, of Huntington, would like to have the Republican nomination for state treasurer. This has been his am bition for several years, and he may try conclusions in April. With two candidates for state offices and two for congress, and a lively interest taken in the contest for county nomina tions, Baker county is in a political fer ment already. "Death was fast approaching, writes Ralph F. Fernandez, of Tampa, Fla., de scribing his fearful race with death, "as a result of liver trouble and heart dis ease, which had robbed me of sleep and af all interest in life. 1 had tried many dif ferent doctors and several medicines, but got no benefit, until I began to use Elec tric Bitter. So wonderful was their ef fect, that in three days I felt like a new man, and today 1 am cured of all my troubles." Guaranteed at Newlin's Drug YOUNG WOMEN . English women of the highest rank and social position are accustomed to take a lively interest in elections, and to vote for all offices save for members of Parliament In the Isle of Man they have long exercis ed full enfranchisement. , Australia has given women full suffrage, as hat also New Zealand. The United States has ha approved of much that is good in Australian political methods, and has found it advisable to copy the Austrialian ballot system, it would therefore be in line with governmental advance to emulate the modern, progressive spirit of the land continent and enfranchise the women of America, who are surely the peers of their Australian sister. KILLED BY MARSHAL , Shoshone, Jan. 1 0. Word reached this city this morning that the town marshal of Minidoka had shot and instantly killed an Italian last nigiit between 9 and 10 o'clock. The Italian is said to have been drunk and abusive. Tne fatal shots were fired while resisting arrest.

LIVE MEN, LIVE LOCALITY, At the' State Horticultural Society now in session in Portland, the Journal says: . "There are more Hood River fruitgrow ers exhibiting this year than from all other horticultural distr cts in the state. The whole world is being made to know that Hood River is on the map. and grows "big red apples," and other fruit This is because there is a set of the li vest men in that locality found anywhere else. Fruits will grow in hundreds of other places in Oregon, a large, tempting and luciou as in Hood River, but th world doesn't know it The vim of th Hood River people is commendable, and should be imitated all over the state; and when this is done, the word "Oregon" on a box of fruit will find eager purchasers at the highest prices in Europe, Asia and the isles of the ocean.
