For President-^CHARLES EVANS HUGHES.
For Delegate to Congress—JAMES WICKERSHAM.
THOSE WHO MAY VOTE.
Tuesday, November 7, an election will be held in the ter
ritory of Alaska for a delegate to congress and an attorney
general for Alaska. In the four judicial divisions of Alaska,
on the same date, an election will be held for members of the
Alaska legislative assembly and a road overseer. We are in
the Third division of Alaska, which will elect one senator,
four members of the lower hoijse and one road overseer. The
Australian ballot system yvill be employed, which comprehends
that the names of all of the candidates for office that concern
any given division shall appear in the official ballot, supplied
by the government. In this division, therefore, the names of
the candidates for delegate to congress, the names of th6 can
didates for attorney-general, and the names of the candidates
in this division for members of the legislative assembly and
for road overseer, will appear. '
For the information of the voters of this locality, we quote
the law governing the qualifications of electors, as follows:
Section 22 of Chapter 25, Session Laws of Alaska, 1915.
“An act to provide official ballots for elections in the Territory
of Alaska,” approved April 27, 1915, prescribes the qualifica
tions of a voter as follow:
Ally perSUil U1 lilt? Ui -
who is a citizen of the United States, who has lived in the Ter
ritory of Alaska one year and in the judicial division in which
he or she offers to cast his or her vote thirty (30) days imme
diately preceding such election, shall be entitled to vote at
all elections held therein; Provided, that all idiots, insane per
sons, and persons who have been convicted of an infamous
crime afe excluded from such right and privilege, and pro
vided further that no person shall be deemed to have lost his
residence by reason of his absence while in the Civil or Mili
tary Service of the Territory, or the United States, nor while
a student at any institution of learning; nor while kept a pub
lic charge at any poor house or any other asylum; nor while
confined in any public prison; nor while engaged in naviga
tion of the waters of this Territory, of the United States, or the
high seas; absence from the Territory or said judicial division,
or city or town wherein-election is held, on business, shall not
affect the question of residence; provided he or she has not
claimed such right elsewhere. One of the said judges shall
keep said registration book, and before any voter shall receive
his or her official ballot, he or she shall sign his or her name
in said book, which signature shall be a statement of said voter
to the effect that he or she is qualified to vote under this Act.
Section ‘-3. Any person who can qualify as a legal voter
in the division in which he or she attempts or offers to vote,
may qualify and vote in any election precinct in such division
by subscribing to the qualifications required for registration in
this section. Any person who makes a false statement of his
or her qualifications to vote, shall be punished, upon convic
tion, by a fine of not less than Twenty-Five Dollars ($25.00)
nor more than Two Hundred Dollars ($200.00), or by impris
onment in the federal jail for not less than Ten (10) days nor
more than sixty (00) days, or by both fine and imprisonment
in the discretion of the Court.

r or.miie years a vessel ui uuuemcittuic h«u
bedded in the sands near Ocos, Guatemala. Within a few
weeks a salvage corps from Victoria, B. C., will have the ship
in deep water and back in the British merchant marine, to
their personal profit and the national welfare. During the in
terval the liner has served as a warehouse, and her dynamos
have operated the electric lights of the port of Ocos. Were it
not for the recent, present and apparently future prices of ton
nage, the end of this craft would have been quite different.
What has taken place in her case is symbolical of what is
known about hundreds of other vessels at present earning fat
dividends—vessels that in July, 1914, were on the scrap heap,
or bleaching their dismasted hulks on out-of-the-way coasts.
The battleground in the presidential- race appeals to have
centered in the state of New York. As the bettors, who are
close observers, are offering odds of ten to eight that the repub
lican national ticket will carry that state, we should worry
about the result. Hughes and Fairbanks will win._•
