MAY DIVIDE PRECINCT
u. s. Commissioner May Create Sev.
 eraI Election Districts

A copy of the Alaska delegate bill as passed by congress and signed by the president has been received by the Gateway from Congressman Cushman. It is quite long and its main provisions have already been printed. A clause which will interest Alaska residents is the one governing election districts in precincts outside of incorporated towns. This clause gives to the U. 5. commissioner of precinct the power to subdivide it into election districts. The clause reads as follows:
 "SEC. }. That all of the territory in each recording district now existing or hereafter created situated outside of an incorporated town shall, for the purposes of this act, constitute one election district; that in each year in which delegate is to be elected the commissioner in each of said cleo. tion districts shall, at least thirty days before the date of said first election, and at least sixty days before the date of each subsequent election, issue an order and notice, signed by him and entered in his records in book to be kept by him for that purpose, in which said order and notice he shall
 First. Divide his election district into such number of voting precincts as may in his judgment be necessary or convenient, defining the boundaries of each precinct by natural objects and permanent monuments or landmarks, as far as practicable, and in such man. ner that the boundaries of each can be readily determined and become gener- ally known from such description, specify a polling place in each of said precincts, and give to each voting pre- cinct an appropriate name by which the same shall thereafter be designa- ted: Provided, however, That no such voting precinct shall be estab- lished with less than thirty qualified voters resident therein; that the pre- cincts established as aforesaid shall remain as permanent precincts for all subsequent elections, unless discon- tinued or changed by order of the commissioner of that district"

.E. R. GRAY RESIGNS
 AS WHARF AGENT
Gives Up Place lie Has Held Since Railroad Started and Is Succeeded
 by T. H.. Banbury

E. R. Gray has resigned the post of wharf agent of the railroad com pauy and will be succeeded by T. II. Banbury, who has been his assistant. The change will take place at the end of this week. Mr. Gray gives up his railroad job to devote his entire time to the business of the Kenai Lumber x Fuel Company, in which he is large ly interested.
 Mir. Gray was one of the original band of immigrants who came to the head of Resurrection bay August 2S, 1903 and started the town of Seward. He became wharfinger for the railroad company as soon as it built the first dock and has been in the company'S employ since the day he landed. He leaves the place now simply because his time is worth more to him in his private business. Treasurer Stewart and other officials unite in saying that Mir. Grays work has been of the best quality and his services entirely Satis- factory to the company in every way.
 Thomas H. Banbury, who succeeds to the place, has been in the office with Mr. Gray all winter. Before that he was an employe of the Northwestern Steamship Company as q purser on it's steamers.

 The actuary stated further that it will require much time and careful computation to ascertain the losses by fire and earthquake in the California metropolis. The question of liability for fire losses when the original cause was the earthquake will enter in, as it is not yet known whether the com panieS will seek to take advantage of that fact. Some of them have an- nouuced that they will pay fire losses regardless of the earthquake factor.
