FRATERNAL
 MONUMENT

This writer returned on the Cottage City from Juneau, where, on March IS, Juneau Lodge No. 420, Benevolent and Protective Order of I1lks held the dedi- catory services of their elegant new building. This magnificent structure dhe most imposing of any Alaska build- lng) has recently been completed and furnished at a cost of almost s30,000, and the Juneau Elks are to be congratu- lated upon the grand success which has crowned their strenuous efforts to erect "home" that will stand for many years as monument to the fraternal spirit which cements the ties of friend- ship and brotherly loya between man and man.
 The building occupies very slightly and conspicuous spot upon one of the principal streets of the capital city, and is easily accessible from any portion of the city. The foundation is of concrete. with large plate glass windows to admit the light into the various rooms which occupy the basement, viz: the billiard room, the reception room, the library and reading room, and the buffet. In the basement are also laid the finest bowling alleys in Alaska, with beauti- ful fountain sparkling in the entrance.
 On the second floor is a theatre with fine stage, auditorium and gallery, the seating capacity being about 600. The auditorium floor is level, so as to be used for dancing.
 On the third or upper floor are the lodge room, property room and ante rooms. Running parallel and the full length of the lodge room is luncheon room, supplied with a thoroughly equip ped kitchen at the rear. Every floor, and even the- gallery, is provided with toilets, and the furniture throughout s as fire as money will buy. All in all, this building is a credit to the Lodge, the town and the territory.
 Juneau Lodge No. 420, comprising about two hundred members, and still rapidly growing, is made up of the live and energetic citizens of Juneau and the neighboring towns. The membership ! list includes the best of the territory's ctizens-men in whose hands the future development and glory of Alaska rests, ! The Elks is not an insurance or assess ment organization. They are an optim- | istic clan whose blood circulates. Their cardinal virtues are to aid the sick, bury the dead, and inject sunshine into dark places. They are not saints; simply dispensers of practical Christianity. They live by the way and lend unto the Lord, for they give unto the poor. Their mission is to do good; and they do good. There are no Elks in potters' fields or county shrouds. There are no hungry Elks. A square meal beats prayer for an empty stomach. 4 hot Scotch dis counts advice an cold morning.
 Webster defines fraternity as body of men associated for common interests, business or pleasure, and Juneau Lodge is an exemplifcation of that definition, Here's health and hearty congratula- tions to Juneau Lodge No. 420.

was made in the state primary for
the reason that the law providing
for popular election of this official
was passed after the primary had
been held. AS a consequence there
are six or seven candidates in the
field.
An interesting question has arisen
in connection with this contest The
law under which the commissioner
of pensions was made elective by the
people instead Of appointive by
the governor states that he shall
be elected in the same manner as
governor and the other state house
officers. The constitution requires
that these must receive a majority
of the vote cast in the regular cleo
ton. 1t is manifestly apparent that
with eight or more candidates in the
race no one of them can expect to
get majority In the absence of
a majority vote for any of the can
didates it looks now as if the cleo
ton would be thrown into the legis-
lature, and that the next general as
sembly would have to name that
official.
The Disfranchisement Amendment.
What is perhaps of most wide
spread interest in connection with
the general election is that the peO
pie of Georgia will pass upon the dis
reimbursement amendment to the
state constitution. 1t is the general
belief that this amendment will be
ratified, though undoubtedly large
vote will be cast against it. This
vote will come partly from the heavy
registration of negroes which has
been in progress this year all over
the state, and partly from opposi-
ton to it among certain white ele-
ment, more particularly the republi-
cans, who are likewise strongly reg
istered. Then there will be opposed
to it a small element of the demo-
cratic vote which fought disfranchise-
ment when it was first proposed.
1t is not considered that this COM
bined vote will amount to anything
like enough to prevent the ratifica
ton of the amendment, for which
purpose only a majority Of the vote
cast is required.
Georgia will be one of the last of
the states with a large negro pOpu-
lation to adopt the disfranchisement
law. Under an amendment to the
act adopted at the recent session of
the legislature If ratified it will not
go into effect until Jan. 1 next, thus
giving all voters registered during
the current year the opportunity of
voting in the national election with
out the necessity of having to reg
lister again under the new law.

The PENSION OOA1AuSSAOACHSAAP TIC
Only Contest Outside of That for
Governor, and Election May Go
Into Legislature. The Disfran-
chsement Amendment.
The able voter viii make another
charge on the polls today, and elect
governor and other state officials.
The vote promises to be the
heaviest in years. In Terrell county
the total registration, after the reg
istrars finished the work Monday of
purging the list, was about 1863,
of which 1900 are whites and 800
negroes. The total number of ne
groes who registered was 544, but
the names of about ITS of these
we're stricken on account of being
tax defaulters.
The election is arousing more than
the ordinary amount of interest this
year, owing to the fact that for the
first time in twelve years the regular
democratic nominee for governor has
independent opposition.
Independentism has not shown its
head since w. Y. Atkinson defeated
Seaborn Wright, who ran on the
populist and prohibition platform
twelve years ago. This time dis
affection in the democratic ranks as
the result of unusually bitter par
tisanship seemed to offer encourage
ment to independentism, and as a
result Joseph M. Brown, the white
primary nominee, is opposed by w.
Y. Carter of Hart county, who was
brought into the race ostensibly by
the observation-disclosures Independ-
ence organization.
As a general thing, there being no
opposition in the regular election,
the vote is light. In today's
election, however, an exceptionally
heavy vote is looked for, though it
will hardly be as large as that pOlled
IN the state primary, when 210, 900
votes were cast
Carter's Vote Not Over $4,000.
That some of the disaffected ele-
ment which sought to renominate
GOV. HOke Smith will bolt to Carter
IS not questioned, despite the fact
mat Gov. Smith himself has an
nounced that he will stand firmly
by the primary and vote for Mr..
brown. Estimates of conservative
poilticians give Carter not more than
$4,000 votes in the entire state,
ana there are those who pretend to
peIeye that his vote will be consid-
eraDly less than that.
Likewise it is the general belief
mat the nominee, Mr.. Brown, will
get from $4,000 to 100000 votes
out OF an anticipated total of 1907
wy 10 125, 900 votes that will be
