Echoes From Ketchikan

Despite the fact that the national committee gave Alaska and the insular territories but two delegates apiece Alaska is sending six delegates to Chi cago in the belief that each of the ter ritories will be given the representa- tion hitherto accorded them. The bolters' delegation is carrying John G. Held, the present national committee man, with them to give added support to their fight.
 There is no real fight by the bolting faction against John Corson, nominee for delegate. Of the men who walked out of the convention only Col. w. T.. Perkins of Nome, Chauncey Boyer of Fairbanks, and the Hunt-Butler fac tion of Ketchikan stayed out against Corson's nomination and asked Gale to be their candidate. Elmer F.. Ritchie of Valdez, Frank E. Youngs of Seward, and Chris Shea of Skagway, all gave pledges of support to CorSon. In fact Shea announced that he would not bolt the regular convention, and Youngs, who is the new chairman of the territorial republican committee, made a speech in Ketchikan favoriug Corson'S election. RitChie committed himself to CorSon before the regular convention adjourned, leaving the Ketchikan delegation and two holders of Nome and Fairbanks proxies stand ing out alOne.-Seattle Times.

Gale Is the Man
ritor,y.

The result of the effort of the "Hog- gatt faction" to run things in the con- vention and to secure an endorsement that was not coming, are today two candidates before the people put out by the republican convention or by two republican conventions that ought to have been one, and of course there will be divided party vote.
 Mr. Gale is the candidate of the free republicans of the district and he will be eleted-there is no doubt about that Mir. Gale has a good record in Washington. He has worked at great disadvantage, and has not, on account of the great and unlocked for opposi- tion, placed much legislation on the books in behalf of Alaska, but hls eff forts have been well directed, consist ent and earnest.-Skagway Alaskan.

Height of Land, Depth of Sea

The mean height of all the land now above the sea is referred to by Lyell as being 1000 feet. The mean depth of the ocean is at least l2,OOO feet, that is, it exceeds the height of the land twelve times.
 This is because the extreme heights of the land, although probably no less than the extreme depth of the sea, yet are exceptional heights, while the ocean maintains its depth over enor- nous areas.
 Owing to the fact that the surface of the ocean to that of the land is as two and a half to one the ocean would accommodate the whole of the land thirty times over were it all pitch ed into the ocean area. Knowledge and Scientific News.

To Put on East Boat

F. C. Woolsey and John F. Wheeler left here yesterday to go over the trail to Sunrise and thence to Tyonok where they intend to put on fast boat to run up the Susitna as far as Port age creek just below the falls at the head of navigation. They expect to have the boat in operation in thirty days. There will be many prospectors going into Valdez creek region this summer, and these parties expect to get a good share of the traffic up the river.
 Messrs. Smith and Cochran were in the party. They will spend the sum- mer prospecting and will hunt and trap for furs during the winter.
 A man by the name of Locan has dis covered a rich ledge of quartz at Mt. Dall and party of men from Seattle are going in there later this season.

Hanging the Bell

In order to give a better alarm in case of fire the members of the Seward fire department have rehung the fire bell. It formerly stood between two short posts. These being only a few feet high the sound of the bell was ob- structed by the buildings. The re- hanging of the bell was completed yes terday. It was placed upon two high poles that swing the bell high enough for the tones of alarm to sound out clearly over the entire town.

Representative From Washington Sure Congress Will Aid Alas.

By Cable to The Daily Gateway.

Seattle, June, II Congressman William E. Humphrey has returned from Washington. He says congress is ready to help Alaska when the peo- pie of the territory can agree and give information as to the charac- ter of the legislation they want enact ed for their benefit. He said that there was no unanimity manifested in the requests made to congress, and as long as there was pulling in opposite directions little could be expected in the way of legislation for the ter ritory.

Not Thought That Document
In Custody of Wade Ellis
Will Be Changed Materially,
If at All.
RESOLUTIONS COMMITTEE
MEETS ON TUESDAY.
At That Time Various PIanks
Now Being Agitated Will Be
Taken Up and Considered
BY 1t.

Chicago, Ill. June 15.-It was an
would be no further changes in the
tentative platform, now in the safe
guarding of Wade Ellis of Ohio. until
it is handed over to the tender mercies
of the committee on resolutions this
afternoon. When the committee gets
hold of it, however. it has the entire
right to do anything it wants to with
it. 1t can throw the document in the
waste basket if it wishes to.
But nobody expects it to do anything
of the kind. In fact, II is claimed and
not seriously denied that when the
committee gets through with it the al
terations will not be serious enough to
cause comment. The idea held by most
of the informed people is it will go
through largely in it's present shape
and what difference there may be be-
tween the committee report and the
tentative draft furnished the commit
tee will be largely minor and more of
wording than of substance.
1t is this which has led everybody
TO get into the platform, as we'll as
those who are anxious to keep some
things out. to seek Mr.. Ellis and try to
get the draft fixed up so it will include
or exclude the things they do or do not
want They would have that much
better start before the committee if
they could do it.
But inasmuch as Mr.. Ellis came here
as the special messenger of President
Roosevelt and Secretary Taft. carrying
with him only the expression of their
wishes as to the platform all outsid-
ers will have to make their appeals to
the committee.
Taft Men at the Helm.
The committee will be essentially a
Taft committee and by more than what
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1908-06-15

Chicago, June 15.-Unless some sill
ver-tongued orator sways the conven-
fion by means of laudatory praise of
Roosevelt, and thereby starts an ire
of the President for another term,
which many delegates of the ALLY
camp predict would sweep the conven-
tion like wild fire, the ticket will be
Taft and - However, joseph
Healing, of Indianapolis, this morning
said to Hearst News Service writ
er, Taft probably has enough votes
to nominate him, if they stick. 1t will
be several days before vote will be
taken, however, and many things may
happen in that time"
When asked what might happen
Healing was dumb. On the other hand
many who confess they believe a
stampede will be attempted, say they
believe as firmly that such a stam
pede will surely fail.
Vice-PresidentiaI Booms.
The active vice-presidential booms
are for Governor Franklin Murphy, OF
New Jersey. which is a very lively af
fair, as his boomers claim to have -four
hundred delegates already pledged
for Governor Guild, of Massachusetts
which is full of rigor: and for the
John Hays Hammond boom, the latter
being less seriously considered.
Among the passive vice-presidential
possibilities. Fairbanks, Hughes, Cor
telyou and George A. Knight, of Cali
fornia, stand chance of filling the
blank above alluded to.
The final touches are being put on
the program for tomorrow. All the
delegations have arrived and caucuses
are being held to choose various mer
for honorary positions.
