Victoria, B. c.. Aug. 27.-The rev
enue cutter McCulloch dropped anchor
in Victoria harbor at z o'clock wednes
day morning from Nome, having on
board the subcommittee of the senate
committee on territories. The party
is all we'll and report very pleasant
and profitable uip. The members OF
the committee are evidently persuaded
that Alaska should have a delegate In
congress, but probably are not pre-
pared to make him elective. The con.
struction Of q Dational highway from
Valdez to Eagle by the government
aid seems to be regarded with favor.
1t is believed too that the building of a
wagon road thrC ugh the interior from
the south coast will stimulate the de-
velopment Of the country to such an
extent as to hasten materially the time
when private capital will construct q
railroad over practically the same
route. The COZ mittee also seem in
clined to favor taking practical steps
to perpetuate salmon and other fisher.

lish hatcheries. to be supported by
taxes levied on the canneries and 9th.
er fisheries, recording to output. The
committee spent the day here, going to
Seattle last evening, where they will
separate for home.

Senator

Columbus, O., Aug. 27.-Tho Ayhn-
son program was carried out COM
pletely Wednesday in the Democratic
state convention. Although the oppo-
sition obstructeG the proceedings with
minority reports for some hours, the
name Of John -. Zimmerman of Spring.
field was not presented for the guber-
material nomination, and every nom.
ination on the state ticket, including
Mayor Tom l.. Johnson for governor,
was made by reclamation. Even after
the chair announced that the name Of
Mayor Johnson was the only one be-
fore the convention for governor,
there were some dissenting thinner
man votes on the motion to make the
nomination uaaI imous, but the Zim.
norman supporters subsidized after the
selections for governor and senator
were made.
The following ticket was nominated:
Governor, Tom L. Johnson Of Cleve-
land; lieutenant.governor, Frank B.
Niles Of Toledo, attorney-general, F..
s. Monnett Of Bucyrus; state treas

ton; supreme Judge. e. J. Dempsey of
Cincinnati.
John B. Clark Of Cleveland was in.
dOrsed for United States senator.
The opposition, by various obstruc-
ton movements, kept the convention
in continuous session for about seven
hours. While minority reports were
presented from the committees, the
only fght that worried the Johnson
managers was on the senatorship. The
only ballots forced on the dominant
element were l., that contest. The
minority report on rules and order of
business, which was intended to omit
the Endorsement of senatorial candi.
date, was defeated by a vote OF 2l1
ayes to 44S nays, which was consid.
cred a test vote between Johnson and
Zimmerman, after all the contested
seats had been decided in favor Of the
former.
