proficient election forecasters. Its
Juneau man said that Murane would
carry Southeastern Alaska for the short

Swineford defeated Murane by three to

term, and Gale has along lead for the
long term. Juneau spectacles have

The Daily Alaskan desires to offer Its
commitments to R. W. Jennings, z. r.
Cheney and those other faithful ones
at juneau who fought a good fight in
the camp of the ''enemy" for Gov.
svineford. They secured a majority
for the grand old man under trying and
difficult circumstances. They deserve
great praise for holding the banner for
self-government sloft where there are
81 many who have so little respect for
American principles of government
They have justified the hope that there

GALE AND wASKEY

The election returns reSeA'eu AoSS
Yesterday from Nome insure the
election OF frank h. Wsskey as dele
gate for the short term and Thomas
Gale for the long term by majoritieS
that are overwhelming and conclusive
The result Is not surprise to those
who have studiously observed conditions
in Alaska for the last few years and
who have not permitted themselves to
be blinded by local pride and bumtIouS-
ness or by undue selfshness. The people
Of Alaska have but awaited this oppor-
tunity to 90 on record against toryism'
subserranean politics and maisdminiS'
trstion. They have slckenedo OF govern
ment from Washington, under laws
and regulations made in the tainted
atmosphere Of a hired lobby, and they
have decided to take unto themselves
that which belongs to them.
There is no doubt but that the people
have chosen yell. Those who know
our newly elected representatives best
are their strongest admirers. Mr.. Gale
we have seen, and that he is sincerely
standing upon his home rule and square
deal platform is believed by all who
met him. He is a miner, q man OF ex'
cellept ability and not little expert
ence. Mr.. Waskey, we do not know
but the Daily Alaskan is quite resay
10 believe that which has been said OF
him. he is said by those who know
him 20 be q university graduate,
thinker, careful student and fluent
public speaker-he has even been
called an orator. He is 8 miner and IS
regarded as rather conservative than
radical. That he is sincere aid thor
oughly honest is admitted By all. Both
Mr.. Gale and Mr.. WaSKey received the
emphatic and almost unanimous en-
dorsementuent OF their immediate
neighbors and those who are best &C
qusiuted with them.
Mr.. Gale and Mr.. wsskey ran as non
partisan candidates on platform which
contained as its first plank simple and
direct demand for THE ESTABLISH
MENT OF A TERRITORIAL FORM
OF GOVERNMENT AT THE EARLI-
EST POSSIBLE DATE" and that is
the plank which made it possible for
the people Of Alaska 10 unite so thor
oughly in supporting them. That
plank, and the frank adherence to 1t by
those who stood upon it is the present
hope of the people Of Alaska.
It is a fortunate thing that the sup
port of Mr.. Gale and Mr.. WaskeY was
so general that it cannot correctly be
called in any sense sectional. Indeed
Mr.. Gale has carried all three divisions,
and Mr.. Waskey would have done so had
It not been that he had as an opponent
such grand, old patriot as Governor
Swinsford, who has served the people
for 50 many years and so faithfully as
they would be served, that those who
have lived here long rallied to his stand
ard with a unanimity equslling in all
respects that which those of the second
and third divisions gave their candi-
dates.
In fact, the only regret the Daily
Alaskan has to express in connection
with the election is the defeat OF Gov.
Swineford, and there is nothing in
that regret which reflects in the
slightest degree upon Mr.. Waskey. It
is due solely to the fact that there is
absolutely no one who could have SO
we'll represented the district as him
who has been it's valiant champion for
so long and that there is none who de-
ssryes so much at the hands of the

The election returns will give a few
of those tories down at Juneau, who
have acted as il their town is all there

after a while what a small figure they
cut any how.
