Deputy Marshal Sam Brightwell
has received instructions from Judge
P(*er D. Overfield directing t^at
notice be given that all saloons in
Cordova and surrounding country
must be closed on election day, from
the hour of opening to the closing of
the polls. Heretofore this has been
the only division in the Territory
where saloons have remained open on
election day, and the court deemed it
best that drinking places be closed on
that day. The order has been tele
graphed from Valdez to all distant
places.
R. J. R. Mill will be an outgoing
passenger on the Alameda, expect
ing to be gone for a couple of year3
and to temporarily locate in the

o’clock. She brought 62 head of
horses that were shipped to Chitina
this morning for the Orr Stage line,
50 tons of powder, 450 tons of coal,

Skagway and over the White Pass
& Yukon railroad. From there they
will go to Prince Rupert and ex
amine the facilities of the Grand
Trunk railroad, and will return east
over the Canadian Pacific railroad
from Vancouver. While here the j
members of the Commission fortified
themselves with all available data
about the Copper River & Northwest
ern railroad, made a close examina
tion of the rolling stock of the rail
road and thouglily examined the har
bor.
The steamer Alameda arrived from
the westward at 9:30 o’clock this
mornning, and is now taking on
about 370 tons of copper ore from

Seattle her next trip will be made by
the steamer Northwestern, leaving
Seattle on the night of the eight, in
augurating the winter schedule of
coming via Cape Flattery and the
outside passage. While laying over
a trip the Alameda will undergo her
annual inspection at Seattle, and will

The returns in the third division
have been received from all the
towns, but there still remains to be
heard from various precincts on
Prince William bound, a few in the
interior and a number to the west
ward from Seward. It now looks as
though Geo. E. Baldwin and Col. B.
P. Millard have been elected Sena
tors, with L. V. Ray a close third.
For Representative—R. D. Gray and
Milo Kelly are undoubtedly elected,
with H. B. Ingram and Dr. F. M.
Boyle almost certain to be the other
two.
FAIRBANKS, Nov. 6—This city
and fourteen creek precincts, includ
ing Chena, Circle, Eagle, Ruby,
Washburn. Hot Springs, show that
the entire non-partisan ticket has
! been elected by a good majority.
Tom MacGowan, independent candi
I date for Senator, shows considerable
j strength in the city but received very
, few votes elsewhere. On the Socialist
ticket Brooks and Estby made the j
best showing.

JUNEAU, Nov. 6—Returns from :
!
all the larger precincts of the First
division indicate that the entire Pro- (
gressive ticket, headed by Emery Val- j
entitle, and containing Wickersham j
men, has been entirely defeated, j
The successful ticket is composed of
non-partisans, who were named after
the Progressive convention.

Tlie returns from the National con
tests, although still incomplete, indi
cate a sweeping victory for Wilson
and the Democratic party. At a late
hour this afternoon it was generally
accepted that Taft had carried hut
three states, Rooosevelt six, and Wil
son the remainder of thirty-nine
states. The victory was more sweep
ing than the most enthusiastic had
hoped for. The above shows prac
tically the result in the various states.
There may be some slight change as
a result of official figures. A dis
patch from Washington states that in
ail probability the Democrats have
carried both branches of Congress,
though there is no certainty about
this. The Socialist vote increased
from 420,70:1 in 100S to nearly
double that number, which is a dis
appointment to the Socialist leaders,
according to a telegram from Chica
go, as they had hoped to poll a mil
lion and a half. They were greatly
surprised by the vote whereby Victor
I,. Berger, the only Socialist in Con
gress, was defeated in the Milwau
kee district by former Congressman
William H. Stafford.
