UNIONS
 SEEK CONTROE
Will Try 10 Line Up Seattle With San Francisco at Coming
 City Election
ry Ca.la to The Dolly Gateway.


 Seattle, Feb. g. A finish fight be- tween the advocates Of municipa, ownership of public utilities, including nearly all the votes of organized labor in this city, and the Republican or. ganization, which will cvadc the issue IS promised in the Seattle city election which will be held March 6. It i, claimed that Abe Ruef, the labor leader of san Francisco, will come here to as. sist in and practically direct the fight Ruet has been the backer of Mayor Schmitz, who ha, been three times elected mayor Of San Francisco over candidates of the cid parties.
 Ruef for several years controlled the Republican machine of San Francisco and became very obnoxious to the more reputable elements of the party. Al ,ne primaries last fall they succeeded in defeating him but ne managed tine cumpaigu of rao @hor party and won, It is bcUpvpd that Rucf is planning the organization of a municipal ownership labor party to control the politics oi ,.e Coast. Such au organization is al. ready in power in the California met, rupois and # seattle can be captured iuc leader, balieyc every large Coast city will fall into line.
 It ha, been prmticaliy decided by Republican managers lo nominate John RipIuger, present. city comptroller, for mayor at the coming convention of of the party. Mayor Ballinger has positively declined a renomination.
 The labor party and the municipal ownership party have already nomi. mated William +. Moore, former judge of the superior court ard now state senator, the only Democrat from King county in the last two sessions of the legislature, for mayor and it is eX' pected that the Democrats will indorse him.
 Although the city has been strongly Republican at every election for sev. eral years it is believed that the fusion ticket will have a good chance to win, as it will draw large number of votes which have been Republican in national and state elections.

WILD FLOWERS IN ALASKA
Native Blooms Grow in Great
 Variety and PrOfusion

Native Blooms Grow in Great
 Variety and Profusion
 Sixty-fve different specimens of wild flowers were gathered by Mrs. l.. J. Casweu near Seward last year, These have been carefully pressed and the number does not include several which failed to preserve entirely and were thrown away to be replaced next year. Nearly all these flowers were picked within easy walking distance of Sew ard, about haIt a dozen were brought from remoter localities and one was sent down from Turnagain Arm.
 Mrs. CaswelL who k an enthusiastic amateur botanist, believes that sine can bring her list up to at least loo the coming summer, as it would be contrary Co botanical law for all the towering plants native to a large re- zion Go be found within radius of a few miles in any part of the district. She reasonS therefore by analogy, that ii sixty different Towering plants grow wild in the suburbs of Seward and several others are found a few miles twther away the number should be largely augmented by inclu- sion Of much greater area.
 Alaska flowers are difficult to press, aHrms Mrs. Casweu, who has pursued the occupation from the Gulf states to ,ht. northern coast. Their fiber con- taius an unusual quantity of moisture and they have to be aired each day to avoid spelling iu the drying process. Another peculiarity is that some of them lose nearly all their color in dry. ing. Several spocimensof bright color faded OF, almost white and were dis, carded. Others of the same kind will be uricdueNtyear by different processes ia the hope that some method will pre- serve their chromatic quality.
 The specimens in possession of Mrs Caswen include many of the wilt flowers known in the northern states such as violets, daisies, lilies, blue bells, mayHowers, gcraniumS, poppies lady slippers, panSies, roses and other: too numerous to mention. Some were found, also, which Mrs. Caswel is un able to identify, and which seem to bC peculiar to this region.

PILOT BALLOON FOUND.
Feared That Stevens Racer Has Been
Blown Out to Sea n Lost.


The pilot balloon which was liberated at
Pittsheld last Saturday afternoon by members
of tho Aero Club Of America has been found
IL was sent back to the club by Alden NJ.
Curtis from Worthington, Mass, and arrived
Yesterday. Mr.. Curtis sent a letter to the
club saying that it was caught In a tree on his
farm and he asked why II had been sent UP
and why information was wanted about 1t.
Worthington Is about sixteen miles from
Pittsleld, where the balloon was liberated.
MIR, Curtis gets S1~lor senulnB the balloon
back.
Augustus Post yesterday got a letter from
a weather bureau man stationed In the White
Mountains which said that on Saturday
evening at one time the wind blew more than
sixty miles an hour. He thinks that the bal
it's moorings, was caught In a current that
sent 1t several thousand feet in the air, where
II found n wind blowing at least 100 miles an
hour and in this wind was driven out to sea,
He thought that even when half filed the
balloon would keep ZIP for a long time and
then would float on the water when 1t came
down.
The accidents to the balloons of Charles
Levee and Leo Stevens last Saturday have
put a stop to the experiments of the members
OF the Aero Club for some time. Levee's
balloon Is badly damaged and It is doubtful
II i can be repaired Stevens has another
sions viii be made until tine weather is more
Count de la Vaulx, who is one of the best
known aeronauts OF France, Is now on his
way here. He Is expected on the steamer La
Champagne. which, Is due on Friday. He is
bringing with him three balloons, one Of which
car, He will probably make some ascensionf
while here.

MORRELL WANTS TO SERVE.
Former Chairman a Candidate for Auto
Racing Board.

Though he positively declined a %reappoint-
ment as chairman of the racing board OF the
American Automobile Association. Robert
Lee Morrell has by no means lost his interest
in automobile racing. He said yesterday that
he would he very glad to serve as a member
of The board for 1906 and that he hoped to be
appointed by President Farson and Chairman
Thompson. The latter gentlemen are expected
to announce the names of the racing board
members when the board Of directors holds
its April meeting in this city.
Last year Mr.. Morrell made a great record
In the difficult roleo of racing board chairman
and head of the Vanderbilt cup commission,
In fact ii was very largely owing to Mr.. Nor
rell 8 u~ntiring work and diplomatic handling
Of the farmers along the course that the con-
test for the Vanderbilt cup was run without
interference. Az. the Automobile Club of
France has turned the Vanderbilt, cup oyer
to this country another race will be run for
it next October. and Mr.; Morrell would be Of
great assistance to Chairman Thompson
should the former head of the board be a
member for the ensuing year. Mr.. Morrell
said that since his appointment as New York
State COMMISSIONS 70 the jamestown Expo,
sltlon was announced he knew that he would
not have sufficient time to remain at the head
Of the A. A. A. racing board, but that he could
spare the time to serve as a member
