SWINGING INTO LINE FOR THE DELEGATE.
Telegraphic reports from the First division of Alaska, the
home of the democratic candidate for delegate to congress, in
dicate that Delegate Wickersham will carry that district by
two or three hundred majority. The First division is the only
one of the four divisions of Alaska about which any doubt at
all has been entertained by supporters of the delegate, hence
this news is reassuring and hopeful. Of course, the delegate
can be elected without a majority vote in the First division,
but his supporters are nevertheless anxious that he shall gain
a decisive vote in all of the divisions. And as indications now
point, this desirable result will be achieved. While the dele
gate was at his post at the national capital, working until the
last in the interests of Alaska, his enemies were busily employed
in framing up against his candidacy. But his duties ended and
his return to the territory has had the effect of running his op
ponents to cover. This situation was especially true in the
First division, but with the advent of the delegate, he brought
order out of chaos,and the result is that the republicans in that
division, whom Shackleford and his adherents sought to gain
to the support of Sulzer, have swung into line and will remain
in line until election day.
While the news from the First division is especially grati
fying, hardly less so is the latest information which comes from
the Fairbanks district. The Fairbanks Times, the largest and
most influential newspaper in the interior of Alaska, wires the
delegate that it will aid him to its utmost and places the col
umns of that publication at his services. The support of The
Times was wholly unsolicited on the part of the delegate. It is
but an evidence of the strength of the delegate in his home dis
trict.
As far as the Cook inlet country is concerned, the dele-!
gate’s reception in Anchorage is ample evidence of the feeling
of the people toward him in this section.
Reports available from all parts of Alaska are highly en
couraging for the delegate, and his re-election to the congress
is as certain as anything not an accomplished fact can be. Ev
erything is moving along smoothly. Our friends, the enemy,
have no chance whatever. So much for the delegate campaign
in Alaska.
In national politics, the election of the republican candi
date for president is easily predicted, when one takes the trou
ble to analyze the electoral vote of the various states of the un
ion. The campaign has advanced far enough to reveal the
fact that by far the largest number of those who formerly be
longed to the progressive party are returning to the republican
fold under the leadership of that splendid type of citizenship
—Charles Evans Hughes. Col. Roosevelt, generally conceded
to be the best campaigner in the United States, has taken the
stump in his behalf, and good results are sure to flow from the
colonel’s speaking tour in the west. Our democratic friends
are pointing to the fact that the countiw was never more pros
perous than now. This may be true, in certain industries. But
the world war is responsible for this unnatural condition of
things. Neither the democratic party nor the repdublican par
ty are responsible for the good times prevailing. It is a condi
tion that was thrust upon us; not one that was sought or
brought about by any policy or party. This is a self-evident
proposition, and it is a false pretense for the democratic party
to claim the credit for the result that has been following the
great world war.
President Wilson has been weighed in the balance and has
been found wanting. Not only in internal matters and policies,
but particularly with respect to foreign policies. His employ
ers—the people—are now serving notice that his services will
no longer be needed upon the completion of his present term.
George Dooley, republican candidate for senator from the
Third judicial division, who is a visitor in Anchorage in the
interests of his campaign, as well as that of other republican
candidates for office, informs The Times that he is especially
well pleased with his reception here, where he has met scores of
old-time friends from Valdez and Cordova Mr. Dooley admit
ted that previous to his arrival, not knowing the condition of
things here, that he entertained some doubts with respect to
this point, so far as his candidacy is concerned. Since his ar
rival, however, all doubts have fled. George, as he is more
generally called by his hosts of friends, says that save for the
different environment, he could easily imagine himself in either
Valdez or Cordova, because of ?<he numerous old-time friends
he has met from both towns. Mr. Dooley deserves, and will
get, a good vote in Anchorage.
Twenty-six thousand dollars in thirteen days’ time is the
record of production of the famous Martin mine in the Willow
creek gold cam]). Here, such news doesn’t hardly make a ripple,
It is taken as a matter of course. In such states as Colorado,
Nevada, Arizona or California, such a published statement
would lead to a stampede of big proportions. Somehow or oth
er, we expect such things in Alaska, while even in the mining
states of the west, they are considered of unusual occurrences
that result in stampedes.
In an article in a recent number of the National Geographic
Magazine, the subject matter is based on grand sights that may
be seen by tourists throughout the various parts of the United
States. Among the sights featured is Mt. McKinley, the high
est peak on the American continent. As this mountain may be
seen from Anchorage, there is no reason why we should not em
ploy it as an advertisement to attract tourists to this point.

Preparedness seems to be the password nowadays—and yet there is a
good deal more of common sense in it than it appears to some. A Hot Water
Bottle does not seem to have very much to do with preparedness, neverthe
less it means just that:— Preparedness against a bad cold, against an at
tack of cramps, and many other ills. We sell guaranteed rubber goods only.
A young man with an elegant jag on (it did not happen in Anchorage)
asked a policeman where he could get a taxi to take him home. Said the cop:
“Next street to the right you’ll see two taxis. Take the first one—the other
won’t be there.
This is a good time of the year to take a tonic. If you feel tired, drowsy,
if you have no appetite, if in general you feel somewhat run down—take
Comp. Syrup of Hypophosphites with Soda and Lime. It tones up your sys
tem, enriches your blood and puts new vigor and life into you. It is not a
patent medicine. $1.00 per bottle.
We have a lot of bathroom supplies, like towel racks, glass and tooth
brush holders, bath brushes, wash cloths, and genuine Mediterranean sponges,
rubber sponges and Turkish towels. A good deal of comfort at a small price.
Well, a few more weeks and navigation will close for the next six months.
Now is the best time to send some souvenirs home and to your friends. You
will undoubtedly find something suitable among our assortments of gifts. R.
Service’s poems, Alaska Albums, articles made from genuine Walrus Ivory by
genuine Esquimaux are always appropriate and welcome.
In our last advertisement we spoke of selling Victor Phonographs on part
payment plan. The response to it was amazing. We have to triple our order
for phonographs and records. Who said that Americans are not musical ?
Did you leave your order for a Victrola?
To our out-of-town friends we say again that their orders will be taken
care of to the best of our ability.
A Webster Dictionary of 940 pages, well illustrated and bound in genuine
flexible Morocco leather, is a useful book that everyone should have on his
desk, or in his home. We have a limited number of copies of the dictionary.
Its regular price is $4.00. We sell it for $2.50. This is an opportunity to ben
efit through a mistake of the publishers. We ordered six and they sent us 60
copies. Rather than prepay return express charges they made us a special
price on the lot.
If you are looking for some good views of Alaska and Anchorage to send
home—come to us. We have the largest assortment of All-Alaska views ever
collected under one roof. Each photo post card is a work of art. Get a col
lection for yourself.
Lyr White Pine and Tar Mentholated is still the most popular and effi
cient cough mixture. 50c and 35c per bottle.
If your hair is falling out, if it has dandruff, if your scalp itches, try a
bottle of our Quinine Hair Tonic. 65c and $1.25 per bottle. It does the work.
