TAKING A BEATING.

IL Was not to be expected that the NeWs-Miner would take the defeat of its candidate with any considerable degree of pleasure. Nor was it to be expected that that paper would express itself willing to support Del egate Wickersham as the elected representative of the people That would have been contrary to all pre- conceived opinions of the News-Miner and its editor. But We think that the people of Fairbanks were some what surprised to see how badly the News-Miner behaved the day after the election.
 Seldom has more spleen been com pressed within such small space. Rarely has so much personal abuse, inconsequent remarks, and canned malice been exhibited in the columns of newspaper.
 Now that the fight is lost, the News-Miner turns with unsuppressed wrath upon those whom. but a few hours before it was lauding to the skies. Why this sudden change? If Hoggatt and Shackleford were such amiable persons week or so ago; if their influence at Washington was so much to be preferred over that of Delegate Wickersham; how comes it that the defeat of Ed. s. Orr has made such a profound difference? If the advice HOggatt was so ready to hand to the President was good last session, how can it be called bad now? Has Hoggatt changed? or ShacklefOrd? No. The change is with the News-Miner To our mind the Hoggatt-Shackleford clique al ways exercised 6 baneful influence at Washington, and we never could m. derstand how any intelligent news paper could support them. But now that their machinations are at an end, and their prwer but T shadow. the News-Mina" trrns anl rends them. Such cChs, stency!

GEO. FENWICK WILL RETURN

Mr. and Mrs. Godski have received a letter from Mrs. Fenwick to the effect that the Fenwicks will prob ably return to Alaska next year. When George Fenwick and his wife left Fairbanks some months ago it was with the intention of spending the rest of their days in the South, but after a short vacation they are pining to return to Alaska. They are at present in Mcn-a,ia, but intend to visit New York end other parts If the United States and Mexico. This itinerary completed they will probably return to Alaska and start business in the Iditarod.

DELEGATE HAS BEEN AGAIN SELECTED TO GO TO
 WASHINGTON.
FULL RETURNS NOT YET IN
But It Is Not Expected That the plated Camps Will Make Any Difference in the Resut-O'Con- nor Down and Out.

In many ways the election proved a surprise
 Such misleading news had been appearing in the Guggenheim organs. that it almost looked as though Orr, or maybe O'Connor. would prove the winner in the race.
 For example. when Valentine sent his telegram saying that the unions had denounced O'Connor, the trust organs flatly contradicted it, al though in light of recent events Val entines telegram was true. O'Connor only scored five votes in the whole of Southeastern Alaska.
 From Nome, too. messages were received by the aforementioned pa pers saying that Wickersham was yanduished. That too proved to be false
 The public also read in the trust organs that O'Connor had captured a Wickersham meeting by his won derful logic. O'Connor got three votes in Cordova. In many sections of Southeastern Alaska O'Connor did not score at all This was not be cause the labor cause was not a good one. but because the candidate was not the best man that could have been selected His title to speak for trade-unionism was not sufficiently well established to con vince organized labor
 The collapse of Orr in most of the districts was pitiful. Had it not been for the Guggenhcim vote along the Copper river railroad his showing would have been very poor indeed Mir. Orr was sacrificed. The vote in the town of Fairbanks was above expectations, which show. cd keen interest taken in the cleo tion Although a large number oi ners had left for the Idi'arod, the ~hortage was only 129, compared with last year
 The result of the polling to date may be seen by glance at the table below. Several re turns from outlying districts, in cluding the Iditarod, Bonnitield and other districts are not yet to hand Al. | the election in any way.

1t is worth remembering that Mt.
Taft is the first President to set the
example of living up to party prom
Uses as made in party platforms.
1t is worth remembering that he
has tried to make his party enact into
law the pledges made by the conven-
ton which nominated him.
1t is worth remembering that he
could not compel his party to ratify
the income tax amendment submitted
to the states by act of Congress. He
saw to it that Congress submitted the
amendment to the states. Thereby he
KEEP his word and the word of his
party
1t is worth remembering that the
Payne Aldrich bill. which has proved
SO unsatisfactory. was passed while
Mr.. Taft was yet novice in the office
of chief executive.
1t is also worth remembering that
as an executive he has improved daily,
the result being that. in the opinion
OF some wise persons. the 61st Con
gress will close it's first regular ses-
sion after passing more important
and beneficial legislation than has
been achieved by any other single
session since the Civil War"
Finally. it is worth remembering
that any party which aims to sup
plant the one now in power. or any
section of any party which aspires to
bid for the favor of the people of the
United States. will be held to strict
account for every platform promise
made. The day of joshing the whole
nation has gone by. Whoever hopes
to succeed Mr.. Taft in office must
show that he can beat the Taft record.
