"I haven't considered it at all,"

Mr. Benson stated that it is too

As for the democratic faction in
town, it is not expected that thero
will be any stir until the election
day. A prominent Berlin democrat
said today that the, party has no
possibilities in the wind at the pres

party as a whole is rather discour
aged with the. way things have been
going on past election days. He said
that a candidate will probably be op
pointed at the caucus, but he hinted
that such a candidate will probably
not have enough power to swing
over any of the republican votes.
"They'll do anything but endorse
the candidate chosen by the Li. O.

democrats.

FLOATING HOSPITAL
Alaskan Governor Flans Boat With
Doctors and Nurses To Senc 5,000
Isolated Persons.
Seattle, March IS (I1) Governor
Parks of Alaska, announced today
that a, floating hospital to carry a.
physician and two nurses will be put
in service this year along 4.000 navi
gable miles of the Yukon river In
the interior of Alaska and srro
5,000 isolated natives and whites.
"Throughout the district drained
by the Yukon and its tributaries."
Parks said, "we have only two doc
tors and three nurses.
."When news of an epidemic of
any kind reaches us it takes days
and sometimes weeks to medical as
sistance to the stricken area. Most
of the natives live along the rivers
so that a. hospital boat will be able
to reach practically all of them.
"Not long ago a. number of na
tives, 400 or ron miles from Fort
Yukon, died from eating spoiled
earibou'meat. Our traveling hos-
pital will prevent such disasters."
