INSIDE DISTORY
I
A prominent Juneaulte write's the
following Interesting account of the
recent Republican primary, held there,
and the political situation in general:
"Shackleford will have practically
the entire delegation from the First
division. This he obtained on the
strength that he would support Wick
ersbam, and put the latter in nomina
tion as the Republican candidate for
Congress. Of course. I do not think
he will do so. because I do not think
you can very well fuse oil and water.
Mr. Shackleford explains, as does Ed.
Russell, of the Dispatch, that Shackle
ford and Wickersliam have entered
into an agreement by which Shackle
ford is to be given the patronage as
national committeeman, and Wicker
sham is to he given the nomination
as Republican candidate.
"Shackleford said about a week ago
to M. ,T. O’Connor, of Douglas, that
he did not trust Wickersliam, and
that when he got the proxies he would
go to Washington and take Wicker
sham up to Hiles, chairman of the nn-'
tional committee, and make Wicker
sham relinquish all claim to the pat
ronage. You know that Wickersham
is not going to do anything of the
kind. What, then, is going to result?
“The Gastineau company threw it
self into the local fight with nil its
customary vigor. The men were herd
ed in squa<ls from the mine and mill
and ushered into automobiles, given
a ticket, rushed up to the voting place
in Juneau, where they were herded tip
to the ballot box. voted, and herded
back into the auto and back to the
mill and mine again. About twentv
autos were engaged in this work, and
there was a continual string of them j
coming and going between Thane and
Juneau all afternoon at top speed. Not
one in ten of the men had ever heard;
there was going to be any kind of an j
election; not one in twenty knew what I
the election was about: not one in
twenty saw' more than one ticket, and
would not know what either was if
they did see it.
“Neither of the local papers dare
say a word about the affair, but the
public nerve is atingle with excite
ment over what has occurred, because t
they realize that the result of the per-J
formance is likely to have a far
reaching and lasting effect."

•‘WHEN THE GOLD IS IN THE
BLOSSOM.”
Tho balmy day sare drawing night,
when again we'll swat the fly. brush
the spider from tile wall, and hasten
to the hand rake's rail. The chip-1
monk comes from out his laid, to chal-'
lenge the ferocious bear. The bumble
bee will bum around, to rob the flow
ers on the ground. The snow will
leave the mountain side to go and
mingle with the tide, and compensate
for all it steals, by beating on the
Pelton wheels, and help the giant
nozzles toss, the gravel from the bed I
of frost. The dredge will strain against1
tho spud, the digging ladder's in the'
mud. some will plow for gold and then,
others scoop up.placer tin. The Si
wash will have burned his bed, the
double ender's in the shed, the parka's
lying on the roof, the moss is springy
underhoof. The malamute will live
anew, for he'll have nothing much to
do. hut chase a rabbit now and then.,
and look in vain for ptarmigan. The
prospector will poke his face, from his1
hibernating place, and cease to brood
o'er the chances missed, to hook an i
Eastern capitalist, then to the moun j
tains he will skip, to study nature's
manuscript From Circle through tot
Ketchikan, there's every mineral
known to man (Since suffrage won.
that will not do. we'll have to malce
ii woman too). The cheeehako from
down bMow, will tell you lie’s a sour
dough, and in his boots he'll tuck his
jeans, mush out to the glacier streams,
and there he'll dig the barren rocks,
shovel in a sluicing box, muse and
dream of wealth untold, and how he's
going to corner gold. The tourist
comes to "rubber neck." and snaps his
camera from the deck, deciding he
will stay a year, the climate Is so
healthful here. The fish will show
they’re far from wise, for they'll be
gin to moholize. and with the help of
alien hands, the salmon will move
into cans. The lusty miner leaves the
slope, to hunt the wiley mountain
goat, but later on will wander back,
to hunt another single-jack. The
time's ripe for colossal deeds, so if
you enterprising men, would get to
gether once again, you could do a deal
of good and help the Arctic Brother
hood. by putting up a plant to can,
the Aurora Borealis and, label it a
home product, before the government
grabs it up. If by now you have a
pain, don't imagine this to blame, it
won't affect you any more, than many
things you've seen before, but if you
are a pessimist, and don't believe a
word of this, you may charge the
silly rot to a mutt in Kennecott.
