drawn up by the special committe

appointed by Governor Ferris. It's

legislative leaders acknowledge that
1t would be poor economy to adjourn

to a decision on the bill.
Election Measures Lacking
None Of those important election
measures which were to come up dur
ing tn present session have yet been
reported on on the floor of the legis-
lature. Republican legislators have
been anxious to make some drastic
changes in the primary election ma
chinery but they have been SO busy
that they have not had time and If
adjournment comes on the 22nd of the
month the session will expire with
out any of the much touted changes
being made.
Appropriation bills are up to date.
Chairman Hinkley Of the ways and
means committee of the house has
seen to it that the bills have not been
neglected and for the first time in
years the legislature will not have to
wait for them.
The legislators have the privilege
of staying In their seats until May
20 and drawing pay for so doing but
most of them are anxious to get back
to their h mes and 80 It looks as II
the date agreed upon would be some
whore around the last day Of April.

Berlin Makes Drastic Regulations
to Limit the Consumption of Bread

the cards aFs sufficiently heavy to pre-
vent bakers from giving bread to per-
sons who DO not possess the proper
cards The amounts designated on the
cards are 3. 50, 100 and $50 grams (O.ss,
1.7s 5.63 and ss2 ounces).
The greatest difficulty encountered by
the authorities in actually working out
the bread question was the lack OF avail
able means to check hotel and restaur-
ants in melting out bread TO their patrons.
For public places the question Is not yet
entirely settled. but Il Is thought that
day cards win be given out in the hotels,
and that in the small restaurants pay
ment viii be accepted for bread
Another difficulty that has interfered
with the working out of this scheme is
the treatment Of persons. such as char
women. seamstresses, etc. who are en-
ployed in a given household for only an
hour or two each day. Such persons
must either bring their bread or their
bread card with them.
Hamburg and other German cities Of
over 5000 inhabitants are considering
similar measures. but as yet have not
followed Berlin's example"

333 VOTERS
 GO TO POLLS
NO EXCITEMENT BUT RECORD NUMBER CAST
 BALLOTS.

Three hundred and thirty-threC voters went to the polls yesterday out of a total registration of three hund red and fifty-one.
 This shows the interest in the cleo. tion in spite of the absence of any req fighting. c. A. Myers has the distinc, tion of heading the poll. Even before election people had come to the belief that his place would be ,"awayupp ir the list of the successful candidates but his running away from everyone else by so large a majority is unusual in territorial politics. He boiled 27S votes, just sixty less that the total number cast for all candidates.
 The result of the voting is that Myers, Borgen, Crawford, Chamber lin, Daggett, Choyin and Youngs were elected in the order named. Youngs just by six votes edged the present mayor out of seventh place. His cleo tion is regarded as remarkable as the fight waged silently and quietly, and which affected the voting consider ably, was meant to be to Young's in- jury.
 Another remarkable fact is that the men who are highest in the voting are all recent arrivals. That is three out of them are; They have been in Se- ward about a year or less and that is a fact which ought to be rember- ed when we take Alaska politics into account at all. Mrs. Ballaine as a candidate for the school board has been forgotten as her election was de cided upon by the people beforehand, She was, needless to ssg. chosen and the result of the council election was as follows:
 c. A. Myers, 27S; Gus BOrgen, 226; Chas. Crawford, 22O; E. E. Chamber lin. 21S; c. T. Daggett, 2O5; J. E. Chovin, 200; F. E. Youngs, TIA; G. G. Boe, 16S; L. V. Ray, 185; H E. Revell' 112; E. E. Rudolph, 5S; E. o. Sawyer, 40. One ballot was spoiled.

 It is possible, says the writer, that he may have found land in the Beau fort sea, and in either event it would be impossible to hear from him be- fore the opening of the Arctic.
 However, says che inspector, ii Stefansson drifted eastward the chances are he will not be heard from again.

RUSSIAN REPORT.

PETRFOGRAD, April 7.-The Austrians have made an attempt to outAank the Russians in the neighbor- hood of Czernowitz but the plan has failed. The enemy apparently had a scheme by which they thought they could envelope our troops but the plan was discovered and the Austrians have been beaten back. The Russians have again taken the offensive in diff feent quarters and expect to drive the Germans once more out of northern Poland. Our advance in the Carpath- fans is unchecked but we are meeting with a stubborn resistance from the Austrians who are reinforced by Ger mans.
