THE GUBERNATORlAL CANDIDATES

The News, of Baltimore, an indepen-
dent newspaper, with strong Democrat
ic leanings says.
There is so much buncombe in DO
ltical campaigns that it is frequently
difficult to know when an argument is
advanced seriously for the consideration
of serious minded persons and when it
is political claptrap put out by party
organs for consumption by the credu-
lous. In a State that was not Just
winding up four reasonably comfortable
years with Republican Governor and
Democratic Legislature and Board of
Puplic Works it might be possible to
brighten voters by conjuring up some
of the terrible things that would befall
If the electorate again determined upon
similar divisions of responsibility. But
how that bogev will be made to do ser
vice in Maryland is not apparent.
The same argument was advanced
when Mr. German was the Democratic
candidate against Governor Colds
borough. 1t was carefully weighed
and deliberately ignored Looking
back, we DO not see that any mistake
was made. If the choice were to be
made over again, even with the
knowledge Of all that has transpired in
the last four years, we do not believe
the result would be changed. 1t may
tickle the ears of the groundlngs to
prophesy that calamity will visit the
State if once more the electorate
divides power at Annapolis; but with
the proof staring them in the face of
what actually transpires in these cir
cumstances, sensible voters will not be
frightened.
with experience to go by, they do
not need to ask anybody what is likely
to happen.
in the last two sessions of the Gen
eral Assembly the Republican Cover
nor blocked no good law the Demo.
cratic Legislature wished to pass wi tt
the exception of the prison reform bill
concerning which he had his own views
He vetoed no bill that aimed to effect q
good purpose. He had no quarrel with
the majority party that brought discord
and interfered with proper conduct of
public business. In his selection for
the Police and Liquor License Board in
this city he set as high standard as
any of his predecessors, Republican or
Democrat. His administration has
been free from scandal and when he
goes out of office his opponents will be
put 20 1t to demonstrate satisfactorily
to the minds of fair minded voters in
what particular the State suffered by
electing him, Republican, instead OF
Mr.. German, a Democrat. to act in
conjunction with Democratic Legis-
lature.
These are the facts in the case. Be
ing so, why should not Independent
voters weigh carefully the merits of
the two present candidates for Cover
nor IN the light of their official records,
their efficiency as administrators in the
offices they have held, their experience
as business men and the impression
they make in the campaign for upright
ness, sincerity and honest intention to
give the State the best in them?

"A BUSINESS administration by bus
mess man, is the Republican slogan.
1t means getting more for the money.
1t means lowering a burdensome take.
1t means reorganization of govern
mental agencies under the direction of
a trained and capable executive 1t
means a new era of progress such as
Senator Lee said is the crying need of
the State. 1t means having man at
the head who is in sympathy with devel-
oping the agricultural resources of the
State. Mr.. Weller is just the type of
man who naturally appeals to independ-
ent voters.

THE difference between the Demo
cratic platform and that of the Re-

first promises certain reforms through
indirection. This does not make for
efficiency. The other promises these
reforms and others, as well. directly.
This assures efficiency.

 MUCH EXCITED
RECALLED TO STAND AND HAD TO BE CALMED BY
 COURT.

SYRACUSE, April 29.-TheOdore Roosevelt lost his head today on the witness stand and became so much ex- cited that the court found it necessary to order him to be calmer. This hap pened when he was recalled to the stand after it was supposed that his cross-examination had been concluded. His excited condition resulted from a cross examination as to his dealings with Boss Platt. The former presi- dent declared emphatically that Platt obeyed his orders but that he himself never obeyed Platt, and that any statement to the contrary was lie. During his excitement he pounded the chair and spoke with heated em- phasis until the court ordered him to remain quiet.

NEWS NOTES

Gabriel Santo will suspend business in the Germania Cafe this evening, It is likely that the man from whom he had it leased will reopen it.
 The railroad office building was brought in yesterday on handcars from the head of the bay and will be used here in the city.
 The Northern pocket and billiard rooms have been splendidly improved by their proprietor, Leo Margules. A new billiard table of the most perfect kind and a first class pocket billiard table have been installed. The rear wall of the spacious place has been covered with a great mirror and on the whole it is probably the finest place of it's kind in Alaska.
 It is believed likely that the city council will swear in only one member of the firm that has been elected city attorney.
 G. c. Darlington has decided to make his business headquarters here and has sent out for Mrs. Darlington. He is the pitcher who finished the game for the Federals in the last match.
 The old building which was brought from the head of the bay on handcars yesterday has been sold by Harry Hoben.

GREAT RUSH ON STOVES
 PAINT AND WALL PAPER
Brown & Hawkins Get One Order For Fifty Stoves From
 Knik.

One more of the prophecies has been fulfilled. Brown & Hawkins now have three men steadily at work getting out stoves as fast as possible to meet the tremendous demand which has taken place for those articles since the rush to the railroad site be- gan. It is worth noting that Yukon stoves are still the chief delight of the stampeders. One of the orders being filled by Messrs Brown and Hawkins now is for no less than fifty stoves for Knik and that neigh borhood. Another indication of the building boom that has started in is shown in the fact that the same firm has offered such inducements to G. c. Darlington, the building materials man, that he has quit the Washington territory and taken a position with the local house. He is a specialist in wall papers, paints, sashes, doors, etc. and the demand for such materials has made the possession of such a man necessary.

He has written to the forester asking for this information and is awaiting an answer. The chief office of the department for Alaska is at Ketchikan and information might be secured by writing there.

The report is that the twenty thousand allies were attack ed by the Turks in force and that af- ter a bloody engagement the allies were routed, twelve thousand of them captured killed or wounded and the remaining eight thousand driven back to the sea.

The chief battle in the counter offensive will probably take place for the recapture of St. Julian where the French are chiefly engaged but that the British also lost several positions of more or less i'm portance cannot be denied.
