Custom of Giving Tickets to
Keepers of Small Stores
Is Now to Be Discontinued

The managers of local theaters have
decided to discontinue giving passes to
small stores for displaying ads. as 1t
has been discovered that the practice
has permitted grafters to beat the
shOwhouses out of about $4,000 year.
This discovery was made by Harry
Campbell, the wide-awake treasurer of
the Grand Opera-house.
A few days ago a woman appeared
with six passes such as are given for
displaying Autographs. Campbell be-
came suspicious and told the woman
that they were no good. why, they
ought to be-" said the woman. II paid
rs cents for them
This gave Campbell the clew and he
collected evidence that convinced him
that j. E. King and Tony Bianci. who
handle these passes for the Grand
Opera house, the Columbia and Fisch-
er's, had been making money by selling
passes.
An employe Of the California Theater
WAS discharged for the same cause.
The three have been acting with keep
ers of small stores, TO whom they gave
part of the money received. King and
Bianci did not appear at the Grand
Opera-house last night. They will be
discharged.

POLICE COURT LAWYER
MAKES SERIOUS CHARC
District Attorney Byington Is Ac-

Act TO Conceal Mistake

Act to Conceal Mistake.
Attorney Newburgh, in a brief filed at
the Supreme Court yesterday, makes a
violent attack upon the honesty and
professional conduct Of District Attor-
ney Byington. 1t is alleged that the ac-
cused official committed a criminal act
in mutilating a court record. Byington
is not alarmed over the charges.
The trouble arose in the course Of pro-
ceedings in the case Of William Noon,
for whom Newburgh is acting as coun-
sci. The defendant was convicted OF
burglarizing a house at 503 Mason
street and received a sentence of twen-
ty years at San Quentin. An appeal
was taken to the Supreme Court. 1t is
alleged that Byington cut a page from
the transcript to conceal an error made
by one Of his assistants.

SUBSCRIPTION RATEa
IRE DAILY ALASKAN WAS
 CORRECT

A Skagway correspondent, who does no, sign his name, asks why it is, if the defeat Of Bird S. Coler for governor of New York in 1902 was caused by the opposition of the democratic leaders, Ed. Murphy D. Cady Herrick and smith NJ Weed, as was stated in the Daily Alaskan that the counties in which they reside, as given by the Daily Alaskan, had given republican maforiues no greater than they had in lS96 and 1900.
 Everybody who knows anything at allof New York state politics knows that among the democratic strOngholds outside of Greater New York in that state are Albany and Rensselaer, coun- ties. They fail Co give democratic ma iorities only when facti0ual fights divide the party s voting strength. The same. influences which changed a normal democratic plurality in New York state of more than aquarter of a century's standing to a republican plurality of 26S 900. in 1896, changed the normal democratic plurality in these counties and Clinton county of about 5000 to republican plurality in that year of about three times that figure. Like wise the same influences which gave Mckinley a plurality in New York state Of 143,OOO in 1900, were also at work in Albany, Clinton and Rensselaer, counties.
 That there was an unusual fight made against Coler iu the counties in ques- tion in 1902 is known by everyone who read the New York papers atthat time, and it is proven by the fact that the counties gave substantially the same republican pluralies that year, when the state went republican by only 5000, that they gave in 1896 when it went re- publican by 26S,0OO. These figures were accounted for by the fact that the regular democratic organizations in those counties, under the respective leaderships Of D. Cady Herrick, Smith M. Weed and Ed. Murphy, refused to support Co'er.
 Everybody knows that. politically sDeakfnr. the years when W. J. Bryan was the democratic standard bearer were not "usuaI7 years. The issues of the campaigns Of 1896 and 1900 caused eastern democratic s,rongholds to give republican majorities, while iu the west Che change was from the republi- can column to the democratic. Any comparisons of the election returns from New York state. or many of the other states. for that matter, which in- c.ude figures for the elections when NIr. Bryan was a candidate for presi-  dent. are mauitestly unfair.
 A comparison of the election returns from New York state since 1870 will show tha. the Daily Alaskan, as usual ly Is correct.
