KATALLA-The picturesque Alas kan days are of the past and ncvel again will the world witness the unusu. al scenes incident to the 1898 rush tC the Klondike and the Yukon rivel country. A visit to this, the lates boom camp of Alaska gives proof o this assertion. Here are al present gathered men who took part in the eX- citement of a decade ago and one has only to stand around and listen to theii tales of pioneer days to become sat ling time which is all past
 There are many reasons for know ing that such things again can never be. But the principal one k that con ditions have so changed throughout the district that the picturesque law lessness incident to the rush into the gold fields cannot be repeated. Every thing in the district is now conduct ed on an orderly basis.
 Law North or o3.
 No longer can it be- said that there's no law of God nor man runs north of 53.' Laws are as vigorously enforced close to the Arctic circle as they are in the most densely populated centers, and it is probable that. aside from any law enforcement men respect the rights of others here more than In any other commonwealth under the stars and stripes. The trickster will of course, continue to take advantage of the uuwary, but no man who comes here and attends strictly to his own business and does not become too con fidential with strangers, need have fear that his rights are going to be tramplcd upon. The dance halls are running, but the gambling is only conducted secret ly in darkened rooms and in places to Inch the innocent are not easily rured.

THE SEATTLE SPIRIT.

At last a definition has been given of the Seattle spirit, which has met with the approval of the Seattle peo pie. At least the judges of the con test which has been on for two months in Seattle. have selected from the thousands of answers handed in one they consider to typify all that is meant by the spirit that has made Seattle what 1t is today.
 A rather unique distinction is at | tached to the victory for Alaska, for it was decided that Mrs NJ. l.. Allen the wife of George M. Allen, known to many here as the editor of the Daw- son Nugget. Mrs. Allen was formerly Miss Latimer and lived at Skagway. The following is the communication of the judges to the editor of the Post -Intelligencer. who originated the plan to offer a cup for the best ex- planation:

 "Thc committee to award the prizes offered for the best definition of the phrase Seattle Spirit has agreed unanimously in selecting the following as being an approximately true detini- tion, and the most satisfactory of all those submitted by contestants for the prize:
 "T'o the Editor: The Seattle Spir- it" is a characteristic force. engand- cred by association, environment and atmosphere. and manifesting itself in a deep public concern over all matters affecting the community interest It originated at time when the city was in the throes of fight for existence. At present it is the inspiration and al exposition. While ordinarily direct ed along utilitarian lines it has at times assumed the attributes of the es- thetic and intellectual. It has as its ul- innate object the erection on the shores of Elliott bay of the first city in the West in all of the following particu- lars: Population commercial and ine dustrial importance. moral tone, educa- tiOnal advantages, beauty of home sur roundinGs and per capita contcntment.

INTEREST -NEwAYoRk CONTEST
Fusion With Hearst to Defeat Tam
many in County Ticket.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2.-The present
contest for county officers in New York
has excited almost as much interest
as usually centers in a 5mayoralty
election in the metropolis The inter-
est is due chiefly to the fact that the
republicans have fused with Hearst's
independence league on the county
ticket. h-
Perhaps the fusion arrangement
would not attract so much attention
except for the fact that it was brought
about by Herbert Parsons, chairman
of the republican county committee
and hitherto looked upon as President
Roosevelt's personal representative in
New York politics. county and state.
A considerable element among the re-
pnblicans appears to be dissatisfied
with the alliance with Hearst and as a
result it is generally believed that
Tammany will elect its county ticket
by a larger ma ajortty than usual
The only state officers to be elected
in New York next Tuesday are two
judges of the court of appeals. The
republicans and the democrats have
nominated the same judicial ticket and
so there is no contest

MASTERPIECE WELL RECEIVED.
Large Audience Pleased With Rend-
ton of "The Holy City"

THE Holy City" the story of John
the Baptist and the crucifxion Of
Christ, pleased a large audience at the
Temple theater last night. 1t is a
production that gives ample scope for
each member of the splendid com
pany to show the high attainment of
the actors art that has won the praise
OF every city where The Holy City"
has been staged this season.
From the love scene at the meeting
of Salome, daughter of Herodias. and
Marius, the young Roman in the first
act, to the death scene in the tragic
finale, the audience is carried by the
power of the historic production
through all of the vicssitudes of the
great teachers of whom the Bible has
taught.
In general the caste is, particularly
strong, but in the characters of Sa
lone, Marius, the young Roman, Ju-
das lscariot and John the Baptist were
the higher possibilities of perfection
attained.
The character of the productions
brought to the Temple theater this
year by Manager A. w Kroutinger is
of the highest order, and the splendid
patronage accorded each performance
Is evidence of the hearty appreciation
by the Lewiston peope.

Big Stakes Make Exciting Contest in
Maryland Election.

BALTIMORE. Md, Nov. 2.-The
present campaign in Maryland is an
exciting contest for big political stakes.
In addition to the state ticket, includ-
ing the governor, controller and attor-
ney general, a legislature is to be
elected that will elect two United
States senators-one to fill the unex-
pired term of the late Senator German
and the other for the succeeding full
term.
The republican state ticket, headed
by George r. Gather, of Baltimore,
for governor, is considered one of the
strongest that the party has ever nam
ed in Maryland.
Austin L. Crothers, who resigned
from the judiciary on being nominated
for governor by the democrats, is a
man of coed family and high personal
character. fr
The issue this year is the election
laws enacted by a democratic legisla-
ture. The republicans allege that un-
der these laws most of the colored vot
ers are disfranehised. The party has
waged a vigorous contest and Is hope
full of electing it's candidate for gov
