Farm Vote the Factor.
There are several great outstanding
facts concerning the result OF III" ci''-
ton. one Of which is that labor II "''
the big industrial states except '!I"'
declined to give its undivided support
to President Wilson despite ms cla."'
to it on the score of having per>llAe"
congress to pass the At!0mSon 'eis'N'

diana, ali gave the Republican cali"'-
date pluralitirs. and Ohio'S vote in Ia
y0r Of Wilson is not certainly /" h' Ill.
tributcd 10 the labor vote.
Another interesting development WAS
The independence Of the West, when l.
asserting that it elected prc>lucN'
without the aid Of New York and Icilll-
Sylvana and other big eastern anu
central states. When it was lohliu'
early in the evening Of election Day
that the empire state had gone 1oF
Hughes the newspapers of the nclrol-
oils even those that had supported
Wilson, conceded the victory 10 the
Republicans, without waiting to near
from the middle West. When the re-
turns came in from these regions, II
was found that the farmer ana sloch
raiser had decided the election.
Yet another fact that calls for com
ment Is that Governor Johnson Of Cal
ifornia, running on the Republican ana
Progressive tickets, has been elected 10
the United States senate by somethln:
like 3OO, 900 plurality, and yet the state
went Democratic on the presidency.

How Congress Stands.

With returns missing from only one
congressional district in the United
States, the Republicans and Demo-
Gratis each had elected 2l5 representa-
tives.
The vote in New Mexico, which Is
still In doubt, probably will determine
which party Is to have plurality of
one over the other. The present men,

The balance of power In the next
house will be held by four men, one

from New York.
The action of these members ap,

a speaker, as we'll as the fate of legis.

The senate remains unchanged, 54
Democrats to 40 Republicans; a Demo

In addition to the hope of electing
a congressman at large from New
! Mexico, the Democrats had one grain
of comfort. 1t was that an official
count may disclose that Thomas J.
Scully has been reelected from the
third New Jersey district.
An unusual feature Of the result Is
the election of the first woman to con

thompson DEFENDS POLICIES
STERN MAKES CHARGES
Mayor Thompson: Settled the
street car strike in most satisfactory
fashion; made appointments to the
school board that were perfect; fos-
tered the movement to reduce the
price of gas; is solving the subway
problem in a manner beneficial to
all Chicago.
The above are some of the nice
things Mayor Thompson today said
about Mayor Thompson. The oc-
casion for the self-praise was an at
tempt of the mayor to refute the
charge of Aid. Stern that his admin
istration had not offered one piece
of constructive administration. To
show how wrong Stern was, the
mayor mentioned his accomplish
ments, as above related.
But! A political student had this
to say of the mayors story of his
own wonderful accomplishments:
States Atty Hoyne is the one who
effected a rapid settlement of the
street car problem by threatening to
force the company to open it's books
that the public might see its enor-
nous profits.
Among the mayors appointments
to the school board was Selig, the
moving picture king. Selig proposed,
according to the mayor, to put NOV
ing picture machines in every school
At how much profit to Selig?
Aid. Merriam is the moving spirit
behind all of the gas price reduction
propositions.
Aid. Nathan Stern, Sd ward, re-
piled to Mayor Thompson's speech
of a week ago opposing his re-elec-
ton last night at big meeting at
the Sd ward Republican headquar-
tiers.
He charged he was offered $4,000
to go along with the MAYOR, that he

REPORT ON FOX TROTTERIES
MYSTERIOUSLY DISAPPEARS

Where is the report on swell loop

peared.
Morals Inspector Francis Hanna
prepared the report. 1t is said to be
a scorcher. 1t came out about the
time that the Hotel Morrison fox
trottery was being branded by Judge
Uhlir as a place where young girls
are started enroute to ruin. About
at the same time the names of the
Hotel Sherman and the Bismark no.
tel we're mentioned.
Hanna turned the report over to
Capt G. R. Crippen, chief inspector
Major Funkhouser, second police
deputy. Crippen, it is said, was to
turn it over to Funkhouser, he to
Chief Healey and Healey to City
Prosecutor Miller.
Now no noe seems to know where
the report is. By order of court, Maj.
Funkhouser turned over all reports
in his possession to City Prosecutor
Miller. Miller did not let the news
men see them but said they were
only reports on street walkers.

STORY OF HEARTLESSNESS
 REPUDIATED BY SURGEON

Recently The Pioneer reprinted from the Fairbanks Times an article in which the death of man named Martinell under alleged distressing circumstances was re ported Among other things it was said that the man had been refused admission to the post hospital Captain Love, the post surgeon at Fort Gibbon, has written a letter to the Fairbanks newspapers which puts an entirely different light upon the matter. He says:
 According to the statements made by MartinelPs two companions at the inquest, Martinell became quite sick about fifteen miles below Fort Yukon. They arrived just above Tanana about a. m. the day of MartinelPs death They stated that Mar tinelE was so much better that he did not want to see a doctor. So the two com ,anions went up on the bank, leaving Mar tinell in the boat, put up tent and went to sleep Martinlel came up about lO:3O a. m and woke them up asking one of them to go for the doctor. One of them came up to the hospital about II 30 a. m. and telephoned me, as l was at another place in the post at that time, He said that the man had been quite sick, but was much better I asked him if it would be all right if came up at l p. nl., and he seid that it would few minutes later l met him on the walk and we discussed the matter. He at no time urged me to come before 1 D. m. Mr Dunbar of Panama telephoned a few minutes later, just after l reached the hospital, stating that Martinelh was dying. I sent at once for the launch engineer, but in a very few minutes another message came by phone saying that the man was dead
 "The companion who came for the doctor testified under oath at the inquest that Mar tinneli was dead before he reached the camp upon his return. So even if the un- dersigned had gone at once he would have arrived after the death.
 "Martinell was not brought to the hos pital nor did his companions make any at tempt to bring him to the hospital which was only about one mile from their camp ing place. down river. This could have been easily reached in one of their boats. His life might possibly have been saved if he had been promptly brought to the hos pital as he suffered from over distcnded bladder As usual, though those who are at fault try to throw the blame upon others.
 "All of the statements contained in this letter were established at the time of the inquest and can be easily substantiated."

CONVENTION OF DEMOCRATS WHICH MET AT FAIRBANKS
 WAS HARMONIOUS AFFAIR

"All was harmony at the Democratic al visional convention" held at Fairbanks on the afternoon of Wednesday, August l6, according to the Republican Times Of that citv Tn fact" 1t continues, the conVeh- tion is generally considered to have been one of the best meetings of Democracy held here for many day. Between torty-hve and fifty men were present at the conVen- ton, most of them being delegated to the convention, although some of them were sightseers, who went to the convention ex- pectng to see something spectacular. With the exception of the koyukuk and one or two other far outlying districts, every pre- cinct in the Fourth judicial division was represented by the delegates in person or by proxy
 The convention was called to order at ? n, m. hv J. Harmon Caskey, the former divisional chairman. The call for the con vention was read. after which the char an nounced that nominations for permanent chairman of the convention were ln order John A. Clark was elected by acclamatlon and W. F.

McGowan was placed in nomination by k F. Roth" Mir McGowan received the noml- nation by exclamation
 For representatives the names Of William T. Burns of Fairbanks, John w. Dunn Of Ruby, Luther C. Hess of Fairbanks and A. M kilgore of Iditarod were placed in nomi- nation.

L.H, COBB'S INTERPRETATION
 OF EIGHT HOUR LEGISLATION

The interpret ation of the territorial law which provides for an eight-hour day in mining operations in Alaska having been ceIled in question, Representative C. k. Snow of Ruby requested Acting Territorial Attorney General J. H. Cobb to write an opinion covering the more important points about which inquiries had been made. He has received the following reply:
 Hon. c. K Snow, Ruby Alaska.
 My Dear Mir. Snow: l have the honor to acknowledge receipt of your letter III which you asked me for my opinion regard ing the enforcement of the eight-hour law passed by the First legislature of Alaska and amended by the legislature of 1915.
 "The eight-hour law is one of the gen eral laws of the territory of Alaska, and stands upon identically the same basis as any other general law It is wholly imma- terial as to whether this law was enacted by congress or by the Alaska legislature. All the territorial laws that were enacted gy congress or by the Alaska legislature. All the territorial laws that were enacted by congress were so enacted by congress ln its capacity of g territorial legislature. In
  to perform identically the same functions in making laws for Alaska that up to that time had been performed by congress. It will therefore be seen that it is the duty ot the judges and district attorneys to enforce the penal provision of the eight-hour law exactly as though the law had been passed bv congress This IS true of all the penal laws passed by the Alaska legislature, with the exception of the penal provisions of the revenue laws, which by special prov- sion contained in such laws and in the amendment of 1914 to the organic act are to be enforced by the counsel of the terri tory, and afterward by the attorney general of the territory, when one shall have been elected
 The eight hour law is not one of the revenue bills, and it is the duty of the dis trict attorneys to enforce the penal Provl- sions of 1t exactly as 1t enforces the penal provisions against murder, robbery, theft, or any other pensl law of the territory,
 "You further inquire as to who can make the complaint for a violation of the elght- hour law. whether it must be one who has been injured by it or otherwise. Any Ollt Ai' iured by it or not, or the grand jury may indict the same as in any other violation of 8 penal law The complainant need not be one who has been injured by it.
 You further ask as to whether or not the workingman can be prosecuted for violation of it. Section 3 of Chapter 29 of the Session Laws of 1913 reads in part as follows:
 "'Any person, persons body corporate, general manager or employer who shall vio- late or cause to be violated any of the provisions of this act shall be deemed guilty of misdemeanor.'
 q am of the opinion that the language quoted is broad enough to bring within its penal provisions the laborer or employe as we'll as the employer. It is hard to see how it could be otherwise. The law cannot be violated by an employer without the participation therein by the employe; and generally all persons who aid or a5et in the commission of misdemeanor are prlncl- pals"
