Seward Democrats
 Go After Spence
Ask His Retirement Because He Op- posed Regular Democratic
 Candidate.

The Democratic Club of Seward has now followed in the path of the Democratic Club of Valdez and Cor dova and last night passed resolu- tion asking that an investigation be made into the conduct of the District Attorneys office to the end that "the government of the United States be fairly and efficiently represented" ;" The following is the resolution for warded to President Wilson, the At torney-General and Senator Walsh:
 BE IT RESOLVED, by the SEW ARD DEMOCRATIC CLUB, a pOliti- ,al organization of Seward, Alaska,
 1. That it is incumbent upon this organization to respectfully request he removal from office of William N. Spence, United States District At torney for the Third Division of Alaska:
 ?. That we greatly regret the necessity of making this recommenda- tion, but deem it an imperative duty so to do, and that motives of charity ought not to cause us to eyade what appears to us to be matter of duty to our party, to our citizens, and to the Administration.
 9. That the present district at .orney perniciously took part in local Alaskan politics against our regular nominee for Delegate, which nominee .ad the presonal endorsement of our President, and said attorney did bring 70 bear the influence of his office to bring about the defeat of our candi- date.
 4. That such pernicious political activity immediately placed the of fro of Tinted States Attorney in gen eral disrepute among our people, ir- respective of party or creed, inas- much as the office should be kept free from taint and suspicion of favorit- ism.
 3. That the conduct of the office of United States Attorney by it's present incumbent is so notoriously weak and incompetent as to cause the same to be held up to ridicule.
 6. That an investigation as to the competency of Mir. Spence to hold such office, should, in all fairness, be at once made by those in authority to the end that the Government of the United States be efficiently and fairly represented in the Third Division of Alaska, and the duties devolving up- on the Department of Justice in the U. S. Attorneys office be administer ed in such manner as to retain the confidence of our citizens in such cffce.
 '. That we greatly deplore the fact that We feel in duty bound to for ward a copy of this resolution to the Attorney-General of the United States, and to the President.
 S. That copies of this resolution be sent by mail to the President of the United States, to his Attorney Gen eral and to Honorable Thomas J. Walsh, a Senator of the United States.

Jury Says Right
 to Let Baby Die
Child that Created Big Sensation Was
 Really MonstrOsity.

CHICAGO, Nov. 2O.-The jury which sat on the inquest into the death of the baby who was let die by the doctors and nurses of the matern- ity hospital last night brought in a verdict acquitting the doctor and nurses of all blame. The jury even upheld the action of the accused in permitting the infant to pass away. The first reports spread over the country indicated that the practise of letting babies die was common in the hospital and a great storm of protest arose but the jury found that only one baby's death was to be investigat- ed and that this baby was hardly less than a monstrosity, so terribly de- formed vas it. Some warm protests are still being heard in spite of the jurys verdict and the question as to whether it IS right to let any human life be lost under any circumstances promises to be one that will be dis cussed in the publications of the country for long time. Dr. Haiseld- en, of the hospital, was the chief ob- ject of the attacks but the jury has completely exonerated him.

 It is thought that the crucial point will be reached when Kitchener and Constantine come together but the very fact that the king asked the British minister is taken as favorable sign
