The Democratic Candidate's
Voice Retires Him
(Special Dispatch to Daily Alaskan.)
Rochester, N. Y., Oct, 31 ? Candidate
William R. Hearst, was unaole to
speak here last night on account of
the failure of his voice. His strenuous
campaign in Brooklyn overtaxed his
voice, and the constant speaking since
then has compelled him to take a rest.
His personal attorney, Clarence J.
Shearn, spoke for him here. He ex
plained that Mr. Hearst had lost his
voice driving nail* in the coffin of Pat
McCarren, the Brooklyn democratic
boas.
RsoHTilt lurua Down Republicans
Washington, Oct. 31? President
Roosevelt received a wire this morning
from Timothy L. Woodruff, of New
York, chairman of the republican state
committee, saying that the pamphlet
the independents are circulating in
New York showed trust seeches by
President Roosevelt and William R.
Hearst in parallel columns indicating
that they ire of one mind on the trusts.
President Roosevelt was requested to
repudiate the sentiments attriouted to
him. He refused to do so.
Secretary Root will speak ai Utica,
Nov. 1, when President Roosvelt's po
sition on the New York campaign will
be stated.
Hugh?? Asks For Sanity
Oswego, Oct. 31? Candidate Hughes
in bis speech last night enlarged upon

C tubman Talks at Saattla
Seattle, Oct. 31 ? Representative
Frank W. Cushman spoke here last
night, addressing himself particularly
to youug republicans who are reported
as about ready to vote for some of the
democratic ticket. He said republi
can* should by no means flirt with dem
ocrats. The democratic party is the
most unpromising political remnant, he
said, on the political matrimonial
counter of the world. He said it has a
very bad record for many political hus
bands and divorces.
Republicans Will Carry Washing
ton
Seattle, Oct. 32. ? Congressmen Cush
man, Jones and Humphrey, republi
cans, of this state, are sure to be re- j
elected. The democratic congressional j
candidates were nominated when it was j
believed that Samuel Gompers would j
come to the state and attempt to defeat
Representstive Jones. The failure of j
Gompers to come has caused the aban
donment of hope by the democrats. J
The rote will prooably be light.
Bonaparts Roasts D?moorat?
Elkton, J Md., Oct. 31 ? Secretary
Bonaparte, of the navv, speaking here
last night, denounced the democratic
party. He said the democratic news
papers and public speakers who two
years ago misrepresented, ridiculed and
abused President Roosevelt, hsve now
ceased perpetuating the blunders of
Judge Parker, and are posing as Presi
dent Roosevelt's true friends. He says
they are dishonest when they say the
president owes the success of his
policies in the last congress to the
support of the democratic members.
He said President Roosevelt had ans- j
we red this claim when he asked the!
country to give him another republi
can house of representatives.
TORY BUNCH BEGIN WAR
ON CALE WASKEY
[Continued from Page I.]
election of these two saints who boast
that they are neither democrat or re
publican was brought about. If this
new and almost unhatched tledgling
who imagines he is a congressman will
keep aut of the papers he will save
himself much just criticism."
If William R. Hearst has done noth
ing more for his country he has given
us words that define this kind of stuff*
"chewed wind'" are the words used by
the New York newspaper man.
It it were not for the childish silli
ness which calls ?'forth pity for the
author of this "chewed wind" the mis
representations woul.l cause One to feel
righteous indignation add anger. \ et,
incredible as it might seem, this is the
kind of talk those high in authority
have been indulging.
If the statement that party lines lhai
nothing to do with the election of Mr.
Cale and Mr. Waskej is incorrect, how
it is that the "party" candidates were
defeated by more than two to one a1 the
recent election, losing all three of the
political divisions? Will the Record
Miner or its torv adviser explain?
The story about a cabal, conspiracy,
corruption and $4.~>,000 is absurdly false.
Its authors know it to be untrue.
They know that Mr. Cale was nomi
nated by the miners? republicans and
democrats? of the Tanana,and endorsed
by the democratic and republican or
ganizations of Fairbanks. They know
that Mr. Waskey was nominated by the
miners, and most of the business men
of Some. They know that both of
them received the votes of the men
who are producing three-fourths of
Alaska's gold. They know that they
carried southeastern Alaska as well as
the Tanana and Seward peninsula.
The fact of the matter is the su|>
porters for Cale and Waskey did no
more than did the supporters of the
other candidates. Waskey sent John
McLaughlin to Southeastern Alaska.
Murane sent Tom Marquam to Fair
banks and Mellen sent J. A. Hellenthal
there.
But the Daily Alaskan is familiar
with the facts. The cost of Waskey's
campaign was borne by Waskey him
self. ONE-TENTH OF S-i.^OOO WOTLD
BE NEARER THE TRUTH AS TO
A.UOCNT OF THE EXPENDITURE.
Further than that, the PURCHAS
ABLE, FLOATING VOTE OF NOME
WAS CAST AGAINST WASKEY
AND CALE. THOSE WHO MAKE A
LIVING THERE BY VIOLATING
THE LAWS WERE FOR MURANE.
The assertion that congiess will pay
no attention to members elected as non
partisans is proved to be false at each
session of congress. That "argument"
was used in the last campaign and the
people of Alaska, including those of
ALL THREE DIVIVSIONS repudiated
it.
The statement that the expense of
running a territorial government in
Alaska would mean the confiscation of
the property of the the territory is a
time-worn fabrication that everybody
knows to be uttered just for the sound
of the words. The fact is that terri
territorial government is endorsed by
the moneyed men of Alaska. Terri
torial government is supported by the
mining interests ot the Tanana
and Nome districts where
they produce annually more money
that would De required to buy out alj
the tones in the district. They en
dorse it because they know it would
mean government by those competent
to govern, government by a contented
people and government on economical
lines.

Too Much to Ask.
A traveler In tlie bighlauds observed
while at a tavern in a small village e
rery beautiful collie. At his request
the owner was pointed out to hlin, and
he asked the uian what he would take
for the dog.
"Ye'll be taking him to America V
the Soot asked cautiously.
"Certainly, if you sell him to me."
"I no coul' part wie Rob," the dog's
owner then said emphatically. "I'm
aiuckle fond-like o' him." And libera)
iffers were no Inducement.
To his astonishment, tb? traveler
later saw the dog sold to a drover for
half what he bad offered and after the
drover had disappeared requested ad
explanation. "You said that you couU
not Bell him," he remarked.
A twinkle came into the bigblander's
eyes.
"No; I didna say I'd no sell him. I
9aid I couldna part wie bim," he said.
"Rob'll be hame In two or three days
fra noo, but I couldna ask bim to swim
across the ocean. Xa; that wool' be
too muekle to ask."? Harper's Weekly.
Pew? That Carry a Vote.
The parish church of Chertsey poa
sesses a curious auoumly. It has sev
eral pews in its gallery which are
bought and sold by auction, just like a
table or d chair, and these pews give
their owners for the time being u legal
right to vote at parliamentary elections
In the division. Moreover, the owners
of the pews have to pay the poor rate
of ?2 a year Into the bargain, a privi
lege they are not so eager to use as the
former one. Many years ago the church
wardens of Chertsey were at their wits'
end in order to raise money for the res
toration and repair of the sacred edi
fice, and they could find no solution to
the questiou until some parishioners
suggested mat they should sell the gal
lery pews to the highest bidder. They
accepted the idea and obtained a spe
cial act of parliament allowing them to
do this and also giving the privilege of
a parliamentary vote.? London Specta

Rtitlni a Model.
Many artists have the reputation ot
being Inexorable In their demands up
on the model's strength. A character
istic example appears In an anecdotc
o f the late Adolpbe Manzel, the Cer
man painter, who at one time was en
?aged on a work ot mural decoration
will kept a man posed in an exceeding
ly fatiguing position on a scaffold foi
two hours. The great painter worked
aw.iy, heedless of his model's discom
fort. Finally the victim called down.
"Herr Professor, how about the re
cess?"
"Certainly, m.v dear sir. Come down
right away, and you shall have you?
recess."
As the model was descending froa
the scaffoldtng bis limbs assumed t
position which was one for which th?
artist had long been looking.
"Stop!" Menzel thundered. "Hold!
Ah, fine! Keep that while 1 make ?
little sketch of It!"
The artist <lrew vigorously for hall
an hour, at the end of which he called
out imperatively: "There, that will d?
for now. Get up on the scaffold again
We have bad our recess."
