York:
"This war has kited the price of

"Old Josh Lee was a miser and he

weeks supply of oatmeal on Sun

urday came around, was pertty stiff
and tough and hard to down. One
Saturday morning Old Josh found
his oatmeal particularly unappetiz-

he'd have to cook himself some eggs.

INSIDE HISTORY OF JUNEAU
 PRIMARY

A prominent Juneauite writes the following interesting account of the recent Republican primary. held there and the political situation in general;
 "Shackleford will have practically the entire delegation from the First division This he obtained on the strength that he would support Wick ersham, and put the latter in nomina- tion as the Republican candidate for Congress. Of course. I do not think he will do SO because I do not think you can very well fuse oil and water MT. Shackleford explains, as does Ed. Russell, of the Dispatch, that Shackle- ford and Wickersham have entered into an agreement by which Shackle- ford is to be given the patronage as national committeeman. and Wicker sham is to be given the nomination as Republican candidate.
 "Shackleford said about a week ago to NJ. ]. O'Connor, of Douglas, that he did not trust Wickersham, and that when he got the proxies he would go to Washington and take Wicker sham up to lilies. chairman of the na- tional committee. and make Wicker sham relinquish all claim to the pat ronage. You know that Wickersham is not going to do anything of the kind. What then, is going to result?
 "The Gastineau company threw it. self into the local fight with all it's customary vigor. The men were herd ed in squads from the mine and mill and ushered into automobiles, given a ticket, rushed up to the voting place in Juneau, where they were herded up to the ballot box, voted, and herded back into the auto and back to the mill and mine again. About twenty autos were engaged in this work, and there was continual string of them coming and going between Thane and Juneau all afternoon at top speed. Not one in ten of the men had ever heard there was going to be any kind of an election; not one in twenty knew what the election was about; not one in twenty saw more than one ticket. and would not know what either was if they did see it.
 Neither of the local papers dare say word about the affair, but the public nerve is atingle with excite ment over what has occurred. because they realize that the result of the per formance is likely to have a far reaching and lasting effect"
