W|CKERSHAM BEAT
THE ORGANIZATION
His Re- election as Delegate From
Alaska.

Juneau. Aug. 10.-JuGge James
Wickersham independent repub-
lican, was elected to succeed
himself as delegate in congress yes
terday over Ed S. Orr, organization
republican by a plurality variously
estimated at from 1900 to 1000. The
exact figures will not be known for
several days and perhaps weeks, as
many of the precincts are in iso-
lated sections.
Orr, had support of National
Committeeman l.. p. Shackleford,
but ii appears that he led only in
the territory about Cordova, where
it was conceded he was strongest.
In other large centers Wickersham
had large majorities. Even in Val
dez district, where Orr makes his
home. Wickersham polled 1856 votes
to his opponents 81. O'Connor, the
labor candidate, had light vote
and was strongest in the Tanana
district
The campaign that ended in yes
terday's election was one of the
most bitter that has ever been wag-
ed i'm Alaska, where the political
situation is always in a turmoil.
Wickersham followers charged Orr
with being Guggenheim man.
while the organization men retail
ated charging that Wickersham
himself once sought employment
from the Guggenheims' attorneys.

OLD VIRGINIA SOCIAL SYSTEM.
Distinction Between Classes Rigidly
Defined by the CoIonists.

In no part of the world were social
distinctions more rigidly defined than
in colonial Virginia. The founders of
that colony stepped from the brilliant
court of Elizabeth into the forests of
Virginia. The lord proprietor trans
ported to his estate a little army of
gentlemen and intended servants, and
afterward came the negro slave. Each
formed a class apart from the others,
and almost at once there was created n
quasi-system of aristocracy.
The proprietor Obliged himself to
protect his tenants from the Indians;
they in turn agreed to follow him to
the system inaugu-
rated by William the Conqeror for the
military defense of his realm. His en-
vironment naturally bred certain habits
of command, fostered a capacity for
directing the efforts of others, and i'm
posed sense of responsibility upon
