Democrats are sticking solidly to Woodrow Wilson. he Republicans realize that they have absolutely no chance of electing Taft and are therefore straining every effort to beat the mighty Roosevelt at the polls. Even Roosevelt acknOwl- edges that he has no chance, and he too is confining most of his efforts to the defeat Of Taft. In fact tho past week has seen the battle center on the fight between the Progressive and Republican candidates for sec ond honors. There is not d possi- ble chance of anything but a com plete victory for Wilson, the only question being how sweeping that victory will be. The bitter fight that is being Waged between Taft and Roosevelt is disgusting many peo- pie who are swinging to the Demo cratic candidate That fight for see ond place in the popular vote is one of the greatest aids to Wilson in his efforts to establish a new record for plurality over his political oppo, nents

From the forecasts as sent from the coast towns throughout Alaska 1t would seem that there is more interest being taken in this election on the coast than anywhere else in the territory. There are more can didates in the race there, and th.. people seem to be taking more of an interest in the outcome than they are al the interior points.
 SOCIALISTS CAN'T WIN.
 It looks as though the only divi- sion that will get Socialist sena tor is the Second Our report re- ceived from Nome shows that Joe Chilberg. the Socialist candidate, is the strongest man there. In either of the two divisions on the coast it is extremely doubtful whether or not they will elect any Socialist candidates. In this part of the ter ritory the dispatches received would point 10 the easy victory of the entire Goi-gartisan ticket, although Ben tstby is conceded a good chance of 'iCtOry.
 IN THE FIRST. The politics in the First Division | point to a victory by small ma ioritv of the Progressives-that is the Wickersham faction of Alaskan politics. Emery. Valentine of Juneau will probably poll a good vote, as will l.eFevre of Skagway, the two senatorial candidates of that ticket The Ketchikan local of the Social ist party put an entire ticket in the | field. and a new candidate for sena | tor on the Socialist side has sprung up in Juneau in the person of Johr Nolan.
 IN THE THIRD.
 In the Third Division the victory can be accorded to none. There is but one man running who is reason ably sure of himself. The ticke, in the Third Division will be badly split if present indications hold out Milo Kelly is conceded a good chance Of election. and they hope that they will measure up there.
 IN THE SECOND.
 The fact that there is nothing t( say regarding the telegram from Nome would indicate that there i: little to be considered them for.

NEW YORK. Nov 2. -. The con census of opinion as gleamed from a non-partsan statistician taking as his guide the papers of New York gives Woodrow Wilson total of four hundred and thirty-five electoral votes. gives Theodore Roosevelt seventy-three and William Howard Taft hut twenty-three. If Wilson runs only three-Quarters as well as the non-partisan statistician says, he will get more electoral votes than has ever been given 10 any president of the United States. There seems but little doubt in this part of the country that Woodrow Wilson will have the greatest landslide in the history of American politics Roose- yelt and Taft by constantly fighting each other have ruined whatever chances either had for election MT Wilson's popularity is nation wide.
