PRIMARY :
ELECTION
. | *-•
■’ In the past it has been the practice
for delegates from Alaska to national
political conventions of both parties
to be chosen by convention. The last
# session of the territorial legislature
enacted a law substituting the primary
system for the old custom. Chapter
38, Session Laws of 1918, cover tihis
subject, the first section of which fol
lows: «
“At the primary election to be held
in the year 1920, and similarly every
fourth year thereaftere, the national
committeeman and delegates and al
ternates to the national conventions
of the different political parties shall
be chosen by. direct vote of the elec
tors in the manner prescribed by law
for the nomination of candidates for
territorial offices.
^ “Each person seeking to be elected
as national committeeman or such
• -• ** ,
delegate or alternate shall, not less
than sixty days before the date of the
primary election, file with the secre
tary of the territory a declaration of
his candidacy, which declaration shall
give the name of the political party
by whom he desires election, and shall
be indorsed by not less than twenty
five persons who declare that they
duly qualified electors and that they
> belong to the same political party a
the candidate whom they indorse.”
The last day for filing is February
26. The date of the primary electron
is Tuesday, April 27.

“Miracle Man,” Who Cures by Laying on of Hands
%_
NEW CARLISLE, L\L>.—A “miracle worker^ is accredited with such wonders
in curing the sick simply by the laying on of his hands, that he has lived
down this community’s skepticism. Leo Cassidy of the New Carlisle bank
and E. R. Smith, a business man, have
furnished money for the erection of
WHAT IN IQU'RE a sanitarium on Lincoln highway. It
THUNDER DID will be used by the “healer” in caring ;
yOU 00 TO smmc for hlin(^re(^s °f ill. lame and blind
IT 7 " Nnl. persons who are flocking to him. <|
In making this announcement the
editor of the New Carlisle Journal, a j
daily newspaper, asserts that from 80 :
i to 90 per cent of the afflicted persons ;
touched by the man have been rail- j
terially benefited, if not altogether
cured. The “healer” is William Mays
of Pittsburgh. He stopped in New Carlisle several months ago when his auto
mobile broke down. The first thing he did was to cure Joe Carr, the hard
ware man. of smoking by making his cigar taste “something awful” by simply
taking it in his hands.
Then Carr took him to the village doctor, an invalid for 28 months from
rheumatism and paralysis. Dr. James Burke Waynick appeared on the
streets next day, completely restored to health. - He says Mays had effected
the ciire simply by touching him.
The word passed around rapidly. Sick people of the neighborhood began
pouring in upon the stranger to be touched. With an overflow business, Mays
decided.to charge $1 for each treatment.
The fee did not stop the rush. The sick of surrounding towns, unable to
travel, sent for him.
In South Bend, Ind., he is said to have cured Burr Cassidy, a bed-ridden
invalid for 26 years. %
Many other seemingly miraculous cures are attributed to him.

j MARCH REPORTS ON U. S. ARMY NEEDS
A standing army of about 260,000
men, backed by a universal military
training system to supply reserves,
would meet the peace-time require
ments of the United States, Gen. Pey
ton C. March, chief of staff, declares
in his annual report.
General March founds his judg
ment on lessons of the world war. That
proved conclusively, he says, that abil
ity to be self-sustaining for an indefi
nite period, provided the army was ade
quately prepared, was the nation’s
greatest military asset.
So far as purely naval operations
are concerned, he adds, the United
States has nothing to fear from “any
conceivable combination” of naval
powers; but must be prepared to pre
vent seizure of bases by an enemy con
trolling the sea and intent on landing
troops.
General March recommends fixing
.
the strength of the regular army at
live army corps, maintained at half strength in peace times. The proposals
the department presented tentatively to congress during the special session
called for 509,000 men and the statement of the chief of staff is taken to
indicate that this will be sealed down to 260,000.
With a peace army of five corps backed up by a system of universal
military training, “no foreign country could, in view of our performance in
this war, disregard our rights.” General March says.
