They have sort of hope that the government will not displace them. "Tt might do us good and it can do us no harm" is about the phrase that would best sum up the reasons for the stalking.

MORE THAN TWO HUNDRED
 PEOPLE ON THE WAY HERE.
Three Ships Now On the Ocean Will Bring First Big Crowd to
 Seward.

Two hundred and twelve people are now on the way to Seward from Seat tie alone. The actual number sailing at this moment from Seattle to Se- ward is two hundred and twelve. Eighty-six are on the MaripOsa, eighty-fve on the Evans and fOrty-one on the Northwestern. These are ex- elusive of the passengers bound from Seattle to Knik and to them will be undoubtedly added a large number from different Alaska cities touched at on the way if the vessels have room to accommodate them. It is not too much to expect two hundred and fifty people to land here this week, not counting the people on the way through to the anchorage.

WILL NOT ELECT THE
 CITY OFFICERS TONIGHT.
Applications Handed In Will Be Read and Some Other Matters
 Will Come Up.

As the present city officers have been maintained in office for a month the election of new officers cannot take place until April 10 so that no election will take place tonight at the meeting of the council. The council men held caucus Saturday night to prepare. It has been decided to read out all the applications for positions this evening. Another matter which will come up this evening is that of purchasing a site for a new city hall. It is likely that nothing will be done but to discuss the business relating to it. The mayor will appoint commit tees this evening and the new council will then be in full swing.

CROWDS LINE SEATTLE DOCKS AS MARIPOSA PULLS
 OUT.
MANY ARE TURNED AWAY
EVERY INCH OF PASSENGER SPACE lS CRAM
 MED.

SEATTLE, April 19-When the MaripOsa pulled out last night for Alaska five hundred people crowded the dock to see her get away and never since the rush to Dawson or Nome has such a sight been witness ed. Every berth on the vessel and every inch of Steerage room was talk en up while many others who wished eagerly to travel to the country where the new railroad is about to be built were turned away. The total number of passengers aboard is two hundred and seventy but another hundred would have gone were it not for the fact that the great quantities of freight that had to be shipped compel led the company to take up with mer- chandise the places reserved for pas sengers. Of the two hundred people aboard two hundred and five are for Southwestern Alaska. For Knik Anchorage there are seventy-three first class and eighteen steerage. Amongst these are Lieutenant Mears and his party of forty-fve. By far the largest number of the passengers are bound for Seward. They number over eighty.
 The following is the list for Seward:
 W. Martin, Miss L. Lohr, c. Can't rell, N. Anderson and wife, J. Swak, Fl. Robertson, Henry Pope, J. Small, F. Woolley, Ellie Davis, W. James, H. Oliver, E. Nord, Wm. Cole, Patrick Shafer, c.

LIQUOR SHIPPING
Law IS INVALID
BONNER STATUTE DECLARED UN
CONSTITUTIONAL BY JUDGE
GUNTER.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, March 20. -
The Bonner anti-liquor shipping Ii
quor law, recently passed by the legis-
lature, was declared unconstitutional
today by Judge Gunter in a decision
rendered in city court. This liquor
law provides that no person may &c.
ceive more than one quart of liquor
per month and that the express com
panies cannot legally make such de-
liveries A test case was instituted
by ]. E. Whittle, of Pensacola, Fla
who sought to have the Southern Ex-
press Co. accept six quarts Of whisky
to a Raymer, Ala, consignee. The
law went into effect last month.
Judge Gunter decided against the
Bonner law on the grounds that it is
a regulation Of interstate commerce;
that congress cannot delegate to the
states the right to regulate interstate
commerce; and that the federal
Webb-Kenyon act does not debar the
shipment of liquor into the state only
in cases where the possession at ell
is unlawful He stated that the cases
in this state, in the supreme court of
the United States, the courts of North
Carolina, Kentuck, Delaware and Ter
nessee are in accord with the views
expressed by him. His decree was
made final so that an appeal may be
taken at once to the supreme court

NASHVILLE, Tenn, March 49,
Again the Kaiser the administra-
ton and the anti-Shields forces dom
mated the legislature. Two members
OF the state election board, selected
by Luke Lea and Rye, were unani-
mously named in the democratic eau
Gus on Thursday night. It is signih-
cant that Immediately after the cleo
ton Of the two commissioners the
announcement of the members of the
board Of control, the biggest bit OF
patronage within the gift Of the ad-
ministration, was made by Gss. Rye.
In fact it is regarded in polial cir
cles here as an open secret Aat the
Mlure of the governor to make
appointments was due to the delay
iS selecting the members Of the cleo
tifon board.
\ The members of the state board of
elections selected in the democratic
caucus are John M. Bracken, Of Dyer
county, for west Tennessee, and Lit
surdue, of Cheatham county, for Mid
die Tennessee. The allies early in
the afternoon were forced to concede
defeat. Judge Caldwell and Judge
Gholson, their candidates, refused to
stand for election. This was the blow
that killed the allies. They were left
stranded, and with the best possible
grace took their medicine.
It was straight out clean cut vic
tory for Senator Lea. He personally
directed the fight for the administra-
ton and was the center of the fight
