OUTDOOR SLEEPS USE
Best Cure Enr Nervousness, Says
 a Society Woman.
PLACE GOT IN A PIAZZA CORNER

If No Porch Is Available, Construct .
 Room on the Top of the House, Says Mrs. Blanche (. Martin to an Audi-
 ence of Society Women Tn New
 York-she Hss slept Outdoors For
 Five Years.
 sleep out of doors if you want to know the wild joy of living was the advice given to society women by Mrs. Blanche C. Martin. an apostle of out door life, following recital which she gave in the waldorf.Astoria hotel in New York the other afternoon, says the New York Herald.
 - T have slept out of doors in cor ner of my piafza summer and winter for five years. and in that time have never had cold, though on several occasions it was p degrees below zero" she said. ''I believe that it is a cure for nervousness and many kinds of pulmonary troubles.
 From experience know that few hours spent in sleep out of doors is far more beneficial and refreshing than twice the time in bedroom even with the windows open. The buoyant feel ing in the morning following a sleep out of doors is one that surpasses de- scription.
 Awnings properly constructed and let down when 1t rains will be sufficient guard against getting wet.
 ''I wear just a simple white linen or muslin nighteown.
 'I wouldn't advise any of you to be- gin sleeping out a very cold night. but for woman who would like a start mild weather would be all right. Have plenty of warm bedding. good blankets, and you'll be comfortable on the cold est kind of nights.
 "I would suggest for such an out door sleeping room second story versnda-one where the cot can be placed in q sheltered nook. but if this is not possible then fx up a room on the roof with A top and have the sides ready to be let down in a storm.
 Mrs. Martin is q remarkably bealthy looking womss and hss such red cheeks that every one in the audience who saw her and heard her read Jus tin HuntIy McCarthy's If We're King longed to be like her

The vote cast at the recent municipal cleo tion shows a similar ratio in the popu- lation of tde two places, a. does the school enrolment.
 Ketchikan, which cast fewer votes at the municipal election of last month than SkagwBy, which has smaller school enrolment and which at the time of the taking of the last census was much smaller than this place, has one more delegate than Skagway. So with Valdez. They cast fewer votes there and have a much smaller town than Skagwsy, ant are given larger federation in the convention.

Special Dispatch to Daily Alaskan
 Los Angeles, May 26.-The Nelson Herrera affair resulted in a fiasco. When the time to weigh in arrived it was discovered that the scales were l5 pounds off. Herrera refused to weigh in. The crowd waited impatiently, complaining much of the time, until 10 o'clock, when the scales were re- moved. Nelson then came into the ring and told the crowd that he wanted it known that he was ready to fight the Mexican, though the latter weigh ed l4O pounds, without weighing. Her. rera refused, however, saying the articles of the contest had been violat- ed when the weighing did not take place at 6 o'clock. When the fight was declared off the crowd hooted and hissed Herrera. The gate mon ey was refunded

APPOR7IONMENT IS NOT FAIR
Renubcans complain that delegates not properly distributed--.Herron took too many for Candle and overlooked other places--NOn partisan action may result from bad feeling

Haines has been treated similarly. That town, including the Porcupine country, Chilkat and Chilkoot are given one delegate. Silver Bow Basin, at Juueau's back door, is given two delegates. No allowance has been made at all for the people between S>agway and White Pass at the var ious railroad stations.
 Carry this favoritism further. Doug las, which had larger population that Juneau according tc the census taken a year ago, is given 5 delegates to Junean's 10.
 Fairbanks, which by every test Is 50 per cent lBrger than Juneau has been allowed 10 delegates, the same as Ju- neau, and Cinema, an incorporated town casting l5O votes, gets one delegate.

Word coming from all portions oi Alaska indicate that the people have DO patience with the attempt to intro duce party politics into the coming political campaign in Alaska. That is the attitude of the people of Fairbanks, Juneau, Seward, Ketchikan and else where as well as Skagway.
 Leading Juneauites who were in Skagwoy last night, and who are here today, say there is not a score of people in that town who favor partisan pol tics
 At Ketchikan, Hadley, CopPermountr .Sulzer and other points in the southern end of Southeastern Alaska petitions are being circulated endorsing the non. partisan candidacy of Gov. Swineford. They were being generally signed. At Ketchikan, those who circulated the Swineford petition say that at the time they had secured 15O names to it only Il people in the town were believed to be opposed to the candidacy of their foremost citizen.

SKAGWAY SUFFERS
 FROM DISCRIMINATION

Complaint is being made from var ious portions ot Alaska because of the apportionment of delegates made at the meeting of the republican committee at Juneau the other day for the con- ventiou that has been called for July II. The Fairbanks News wires out that the people of that town will ignore the appOrtloument and the convention.
 A scrutiny of the apportionment in dicates that the people of Skagway and Haines have cause to complain of un- fairness in the distribution as have those from other towns which have pro- tested.

 FAIRBANKS NEWS"
 Here is the way the Seward Gateway puts the situation:
 "The fairest way to settle this Alas ka delegate business is to leave the bars down and let everybody run as in a primary election. The territory will at least stand as good chance of get ting a first-class representative in that way as through a nominating conVen- tion and the result will be free from the bitterness and recriminations which always follows convention in which numerous factions and local jealousy are the chief factors.
 ''In this Alaska delegate contest the time is is so short that candidate might as well be chosen by shaking dice as in a convention.
 "Just drop this nomination jobbery and give the territory square deal
 The Juneau Dispatch of Thursday says:
 "For reasons best known to those who have witnessed the bitterness ot political strife comes the appeal for contest which vii keep politics out ot Alaska. The mere fact that man may go to Washington tagged with a political brand is DO sign that he can accomplish wonders. The adminis- tratiun needs no assistance but all ot Alaska needs wise legislation."
