 The Republican presents this morn ing partial returns from precincts in the county and territory which favor the assumption that the Democrats have been successful all along the line. The advices received at Republican headquarters, beginning early last evening, were far from encouraging, and the leaders soon made no secret of their conviction that the fight was go- ing against them. The figures relat- ing to the contest for delegate to con- gress proved to be very significant For more than a week the two commit tees, territorial and county, had pro ceeded on the basis that the fight was between ONeill and Doran. The fact became apparent last night that Smitlh's strength had been generally underestimated. Smith was found to be ahead in precincts which had been considered as safe for either Doran or O'Neill Secretary Barnes of the Re- publican territorial central committee said at midnight that in all probability Smiths plurality would exceed 300 This statement was based on returns from districts where Doran had been regarded as a certain winner Local | Democrats say the fip1IreS will ran oe much higher. At the time of going to press the indications favored the cleo tion of the Democratic ticket in Mari copa county.

Some of the more recent explorers of
Alaska and British America claim that
the Mississippi car no longer be re-
2arded as the longest river on the North
american continent. This distinction
is claimed for the great Yukon river
According to Ivan Petroff. who spent
over two years in Alaska, collecting
materials for the last census, the Yukon
empties into Norton Sound about one
third more water than the Mississippi
pours into the Gulf of Mexico. The
yukon basin comprises the larger part
OF Northern Alaska, and 900 miles from
its mouth the river is a mile in width
Many centuries before it was discovered
by white men it very likely served as
the water highway into the interior for
tribes whom we believe tc have crossed
from Asia to the American continent.
The Yukon river is over : 900 miles in
length.
