KEEP POLITICS OUT

The people of Douglas are moving to have a straw election on the national election day. It is hoped they will abandon the plan. The people of Alas ka should do nothing to encourage a di- vision on political lines. Particularly Is that the case at the present time when one of the parties has inserted a plank in it's platform declaring in favor of territorial government for the dis trict while the other party has remained silent on the subject.
 The people of Alaska should under no circumstances show by a straw ballot or otherwise that they are indifferent to the fact that the democratic national convention has promised to them the boon for which they have prayed so long nor should republicans be asked 10 vote for Parker even for amusement in order to be loyal to Alaska when the exegencies of the occasion do not re- quire it.
 Since the foregoing was written, it is learned that the Roosevelt republican club of Skagway has decided Co chal- lenge the Skagway democratic club to a straw contest. They should not in- sist upon the challenge, and if they do, the democrats should decline it.
 Skagway has been the foremost town in Alaska in the fight for self-govern- ment, a right the people have insisted is theirs because of their American cit izenship, In this fight democrats and republicans have worked shoulder Co shoulder. They have sent del- egations Co republican conventions democratic conventions and to non-partizan conventions to labor for territorial government. The chamber of commerce, the city council and mass meetings have begged, petitioned and demanded the right to make their own laws. Let Us assume, in the face or this record, that a majority of the peo- pie of SSagway should vote, even at straw ballot, for the republican candi- dates who are running on platform which promises Alaska nothing and against the democratic candidates on a platform which promises Alaska the very things for which we have labOred so long. The fact would be taken up by the tories and 1t would be used 70 show the authorities at Washington that the people of this city are not in favor of territorial government. The Daily Alas an does not believe the re- publicans of Skagway want tO place their town in this position. and it be- lieves they will withdraw their chol- lenge. On the other hand, the demo- crats of Skagway should not ask the re- pubIicans to go on record against their party when such action is not required. It were better that their be no voting.

interested attention not only on the
part of the delegates, but on the part
of the church at large. OF still more
interest to the general public, how
ever, will be the elec4on of nIw
bishops. Two active bishops have
died since the last general conference
and several others may be superan-
nuated. The number of missionary
bishops that will be chosen is prob
lematical. The election of three new
bishops for southern Asia has been
recommended, and in addition, Bishop
Moore, who has been in charge of the
missions in eastern Asia during the
last four years, advises that three mis-
sionary bishops be elected for that
territory.
While whatever action that may be
taken with reference to the missionary
bishops will have some effect on the
number of bishops, there is no doubt
that at least three new bishops will
be elected Successors will be chosen
for Bishop Hurst of Washington and
Bishop Ninde of Detroit, both recently
passed away, and a third vacancy,
caused by the coming retirement of
Bishop Merrill of Chicago, must be
filled.
There appears to be no lack of ma
terial for new bishops. Among those
most prominently mentioned for the
Office are James r. Day, chancellor of
Syracuse university; James w. Bash
ford, president of Ohio Wesleyan uni.
versity; Joseph F. Berry, editor of
the Epworth Herald, Chicago, and
general secretary of the Epworth
League; William F. Mcdowell of New
York city, corresponding secretary of
the board of education; Henry c.
Jennings of CINCINNATI, publishing
agent of the Western Methodist Book
Concern; Henry Spellmayer of New
ark, N. j. Luther b. Wilson of Wash.

100000 members of the church scat
tered throughout the world. For the
first time in the 100 years history
of the church women will hold seats
in the body as delegates. This rev.
olution is the result of action taken
at the session of the general confer.
ence held in Chicago four years ago
In addition to the delegates the con.
ference has attracted thousands of
visitors from all parts of the United
States who are interested in the pro.
ceedings.
Several subjects that are to come
up for discussion and action will rem.
der the general conference this year
of far more than ordinary importance.
Among these are the proposed unfit
cation of the publishing houses and
consolidation of the benevolences.
The subcommittee appointed four
years ago to take into consideration the
proposals to unity the publishing in
terests has prepared a report in which
it proposes that the publishing inte-
rests of the church shall be consoli-
dated into one corporation, which
shall consist of one publishing house
and three branch houses and FIVE de-
positories. The publishing house and

located in some central place con-
venient for production and distri-
button. The branch houses shall be
at New York, Cincinnati and Chi
cago, and the repositories at Pitts
burg, San Francisco, Boston, Detroit
and Kansas City.
The scheme for the consolidation of
the benevolences includes the doing
away with the one missionary society
which now administers missions both
at home and abroad, and the organ
ization of separate home and foreign
boards, and a third organ
ization to have charge of education.
These proposed consultations in
volve a tremendous revolution. the
outcome of which gives the church
serious anxiety. Many believe them
to be supremely wise and that they
will result in greater efficiency and
larger collections others fear the re-
verse. Re-adjustment of some kind,
however, is deemed necessary and in
evitable and the present conference
IS certain to see important changes
n this direction.
Among the other important mat
.ers that will in all probability come
before the conference is the adoption
Of some plan by which better pro-
vision can be made for aged ministers
and the widows and orphans of de-
ceased ministers, and a change in
