Anchorage extends its congratulations to Seward’s enter-;
prise in taking the initiative in aranging for a preparedness
program in connection with the Fourth of July celebration to j
be held on Resurrection bay.
l'nder the caption of “‘Burnside on Fritz Again—That
Joy Yacht That Is Never in Condition,” the Fairbanks News
Miner excoriates the Burnside, a cableship that is never in a
state of preparedness, so far as breaks in the cable are con
cerned.
The placer and quartz gold properties of the Willow
reek and Cache creek districts are beginning to attract not
only the attention of the prospectors but also capitalists and
ere long we expect to see that section one of the busiest in
Alaska.
The high cost of living, which has hit the printing trade
hard, will not prevent The Daily Times from enlarging to
twelve pages tomorrow, making it the largest daily ever pub
lished in Alaska and at the same price the residents in other
towns are paying for a four-page newspaper.
Again we take off our hats to the ladies of Anchorage,
they being the first of the fair sex in Alaska to organize a reg
ular baseball team. And we violate no confidence in saying
that when the club makes its initial appearance on a local dia
diamond it will give a good account of itself and draw one of
the largest audiences of the season. Of course we all love the
ladies and will be on deck to boost for them. Why not have
this aggregation of feminity booked for one of the Fourth of j
July games?
Political conventions originated in 1796, when “caucuses”
were held in various states to select officials and candidates. j
The first state nominating convention of regular form was j
called in Xew York in 1824. The first real national politcal
convention was held in Philadelphia in 1830 by the Anti-Ma- ]
sonic party. Exactly a year later, to the day, September 29.
the “National Republican” party met in convention at Balti
more and nominated Henry Clay.
—
The coast and geodetic survey has been given quite a jolt
by the house committee on appropriations in denying the need
ed money to keep its vessels in repair and also in its refusal to
provide funds for the building of a new vessel for use in Alas- i
kan waters, to replace the worn out hulks that are now used
for that purpose. Congress also fails to realize that there are
23.000 miles of shore line in this territory yet to be surveyed
and that the loss in ships for lack of surveys in Alaska to the
United States ha> amounted to more than the original cost of j
the territory. $72,000,000. from Russia.
In the republican convention, precedent has established
that a majority vote is sufficient to nominate. Division of:
state votes is also permitted by custom. The democratic con-.
vention is governed by the “two-thirds” vote and that “unit :
system”—that is, two-thirds is necessary to vote, and the
votes of individual state delegations must be cast en bloc. This i
practice dates back to the 1832 convention, when Jackson in- j
vented it to force Van Buren’s nomination as vice-president on
the ticket with him.
