BUT ONE ANSW FER.

With the election but one day away il hehooVes the voters of Seward Pen insula or at least those who have a due regard for the welfare of this dis tl'ict, to virtually take time by the fore lock and make up their minds 10 the fact that if Seward Peninsula is to ob- tain any benefits whatever from the forthcoming legislative session il can only he by electmg one OF the other of the candidates for the senatorial office now on the outside
 By any common sense process of de- dneiion il is plainly to be seen that the So called inside" candidate. McGann cannot, under the most favorable cir cumstances hope 10 reach Juneau be- fore the earlier days of April, at which time the legislative session will be half over Under these conditions no man. regardless of his qualifications, can be effective in the procuring of such bene- fits as will best fill the legislative needs of this district. and voters may just as well make up their minds to the fact representation they are compelled to abandon all personal likes and dislikes, and all class affiliations and elect a man who can at least be on the spot in time to see that Seward Peninsula is not en- tirely overlooked in the law making processes.
 Thr argument that the candidates now on the outside are invalidated or that their election will constitute pre- cedent which may ultimately cause the voters of this district to vote into office one who is not an active resident of the territory, is the veriest tom foolery and an all too evident attempt to pull the wool over" the eyes of the voters.
 In measure such contention is an insult and a islander on the intelligence of the people of this district The peo- t+t 'A '9' VI llA tAAliSDlit Etft dS lnltIll- gent and as competent 10 look after their best interests as those of any community in the United States and there is absolutely no reason to be- lieve that they are going to utterly for get all the intelligence and foresight displayed in handling Of their affairs in | Inc. past neither now or hereafter
 AS before stated all such arguments are only advanced 10 delude the voters into accepting a man who can in no sense Ill the bill. Not that he is in any way personally incompetent or un- worthy but simply that he cannot pro- cure the results desired because of natural difficulties which no human being can hope to overcome.
 There is absolutely nothing to be gained by electing a man who can only

arrive on the scene after practically all the preliminary work of the legisla- ture is completed: when all hills have been introduced and discussed and when nearly every avenue of legisla tive process is blocked and eumbered with the business previously entered A half loaf may be considered better than no loaf at all in some quarters but il is not believed that the rank and file of the voters of this district will look at the matter in that light and will vote accordingly.
 n..e election of McGann can in no way be other than a failure as far as tesults are concerned and will simply result in adding an Honorable" to the name of man who can do nothing to reward that honor regardless of his best efforts
 There Is one thing however that the voters must not overlook even if they do not intend te vote for McGann As pointed out in the published circular of the Anderson Campaign Committee, Anderson and James are expected to draw from the same clements and this fact is of vital interest as a close con test between James and Anderson is bound as stated, to initiate in favor of McGann." and the closee the vote he more the result will he in his favor hence il would seem the part of wisdom for the voting public la unite on one of the "outSide' candidates and thus ob vlate the possibility of the wishes of the people being rendered entirely ne gative in that manner.
 known and the platform of Anderson has been published so there is Gttle reason io withhold judgment because If il lack of Knowledge of what they stand for. The platform on which An derson is running as placed before the voters last November. differs but slightly from that o' McGann and such differences as occur ale in no way vital Both advocate the eight hour law. which is of such vital importance to the lahoring masses. and in the balance of their platforms they are also nearly agreed on every item, and parison icvelopes the significant fact that An 1erson's platform is the more eompre- hensiye of the two
 Judging from the results of last No semher Anderson Is the more popular candidate of the wo"outside'' men and win probably poll an equal vote in the present contest This possibility con sidered il would appear that in the pest interest of the district it were well for the voters to unite for he most pop atr man The Nugget has every re- sard for Mir. James and has not the east desire to work against his candi- daey hat in the face of the present circumstances feels that it must sup bort that candidacy who is the strongest and in the best position to further the interests of the district. which is entire lN in keeping with the suggestion of both James and Anderson published some time ago which was advanced with the same idea in view
 Judge from the premise this seems the only logical course to pursue if the people desire full and active repre- sentation and the voters are urged to unitr in following this plan namely choose what is conceived to he the strongest candidate and thus secure such benefits as the present legislative session can confer

Italians in Struggle
With Tyrolese Jaegers
10000 Feet Above Sea

GENEVA. June 10.-Ten thousand
leet above the level of the sea. Italian
Alpinists and Tyrolese Jaegers are
locked in a fierce struggle for posses
sion of Stelvio pass. the highest car
Rage road in Europe.
The rattle of machine guns Is sweep
ing a region once the mecca OF tour
ists. The Austrians are defending
themselves from behind rock oarri-
cades, the Alptnists attempting to rush
these positions with bayonet charges.
From the heights above the Italians
have wrecked one after another OF the
Austrian defenses by sending. great
stones rolling down the mountain side.
The scenic background for the StelVio
mass battle surpasses any of the war.
The Italians advanced to the attack
along the vine-c clad slopes of Valtel-
lima To the north shells are Shrek

bombardment of the Austrian positions
around Rovereto continues, the ltal-
ians seemingly having settled down to
a long siege. Elsewhere along the
Trentino and Carniola frontier border
clashes are occurring constantly.
Dispatches received here today de-
cIared that all non-combatants in
Goritz had been ordered to evScuate
the town, which is now under BAN
nardment by the Italians along the
Isonzo. The Austrians have rushed
several heavy guns to F1ume TO
strengthen that seaport against pos
sible attack.

FALL OF G0RITz IS NEAR
Victor EmmanueIs Troops Drive
Back Austrians in Bloody
Mountain Fight.
LUCIANO, Switzerland, June
10.-An Austrian torpedo boat
was torpedoed and sunk by an
Italian submarine in the Gulf
of Trieste. The crew was lost.

ROME, June 10.-Italian troops have
won their most important victory Of the
war.
In the first stages of the great bat
tie now raging along the Isonzo they
have captured the railway center OF
Monfalcone near the Adriatic.
The fall of Goritz. capital of the Aus
trian province Of that name, Is believed
to be imminent.
To the north, in the fighting on Monte
Nero, an italian regiment drove the
Austrians from a rocky height. in a
hand o-hand struggle with bayonets.
The enemy fed. leaving 100 bodies and
so wounded on the summit of the peak.
Our losses in the Isonzo battle thus
far have been very light" said an Of
ficial statement from General Cadorna.
prisoners report that the enemy has
suffered heavily. We have captured
more than 400 Austrians."
Monfalcone lies twelve miles inside
the Austrian frontier. sixteen miles
northwest of Trieste. Its capture py
the Italians, after fierce artlllery anu
infantry engagement, represents the
greatest advance into Austrian terri
tory since the war began.
The right wing of the Italian armies
along the lSonzo made the maj on
slaught on Monfalcone from Ronchi
after Italian batteries had silenced the
Austrian guns and weakened concrete
works on the outskirts of the town
The Austrian garrison, from entrench
ments inside the outer forts, fought
with great bravery for several hours
and in their retreat destroyed the sta
tion on the railway leading to Trieste
Included among the 400 prisoners arr
seventy Austrians who voluntaril!
crossed to the Italian lines neal
Caporetto and surrendered, Genera
Cadorna reported.
Evacuation of both Gradisca anC
Goritz by the Austrians is expected
within the next few days. With Mon
falcone in the hands of the Italians ant
another Italian force holding the rail
way southeast of Gradisca, the Austrian
position, there. is. growing more perilou
every hour. Bombardment of Goritz a
long range already has begun.
