HERRING AT LAST

After waiting for days, it looks as though the fall run of herring is on at last, and the bait famine is probably at an end. Capt. Thomas, who prob ably knows more about herring than any other man in this re- glon, brought in the first batch yesterday, S5 barrels, with which he baited up the schoon- CTS Pioneer and Orient. He states that he would have had much more if it had not been for the fact that his seine fouled and tore on the rocks, allowing the fish to escape. The her ring brought in are big fel- lows, all fat and plump, and will make fine bait The power boat, Pirate also brought in a few herring, having arrived this morning.

VOTE FOR HIM
 AND SAVE ALASKA

In the neighborhood of thirty people turned out at Moose Hall Saturday evening to listen 10 the presentation of the pol ltical situation by Mrs. Gibson and Gilbert Mann. Mrs. Glb- son read her platform and ask ed those present to vote for her promising to live up to her promise if elected. "Fatty" was the orator of the evening, and the way he landed on American institutions in general and our Fedral officials in particular wasn't slow. It didn't make any difference to him the fact he was lacking proof of a few of his utterances, he fired his broadsides anyway, and let it go at that. Both the Non-Par- lisan and Democratic tickets were subjected to the same treatment as our German friends have accorded Antwerp. and to hear him tell it, the Ter eitory will go to the "demnition bow-wows' unless he is elect ed. As a representative of himself he is a shining mark.
