SEWARD ADOPTS THE NEW
 SYSTEM OF CITY ELECTION

The people of Seward yesterday voted in favor of electing city govern ments and city officials in future in the manner provided for by the terri torial legislature. The interest in the election was not great and only PAP people registered. Of those only 173 went to the polls but those who vot- ed showed a distinct preference for the election of officials separately and in showing this they showed a dis tinct desire to cut out future pOssi- bility of graft. The people voted separately on the two propositions. One was for the election of a mayor separately and the election of three members of the council anually, and the other was for the separate cleo tion of a city attorney, city treasurer

SEWARD CAN
 HAVE MILITIA
GENTLEMAN NOW HERE IS LOOKING FOR OPINIONS
 OF THE PEOPLE.

The bill which is now before con gress to create a national militia of a new order embraces Alaska as well as every other part of the United States and its territories and E. M. Huff the prominent life insurance man, who is now in the city is making inquiries to learn what the opinion of people is respecting the establishment of a company here. Mir. Huff does not say so, but it is pretty safe to say that Governor Strong has asked him to look into the matter so that AL askas stand on the subject will be known when the bill becomes law. Each town will organize a company if it wishes to do so and each com pany will elect its own officers. The size of a company may be anything from Q goodly number up to one hun dred and ten which is the war strength. The peace strength of company is sixty-fve and the officers consist of a captain and two lieuten- ants. Seward, like all other places which can supply sufficient num- ber will have it's own company if it wishes. Drills will take place twice each month and will be in some hall like the A. B. hall for instance Mir. Huff is a man with military training himself and is deeply interested in the subject. The bill now before congress carries an appropriation for the militia.

WASHINGTON HEADS LIST

Census Bureau Experts Estimate Number of People in U. s.
 at 1O1,2O8,315.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.-Census bureau experts estimated yesterday that the population of the United States on January 1 last was 1Ol,- 2O8,815 and that by July it would be 1O2,O173O2. On July 1 last year they figured the population at 1OO,- 399,318. Western states have led in growth, Washington heading the list with Oklahoma, Nevada, North Dakota, and New Mexico following in the order named. The bureaus esti- mates are based on the rate of in crease between the 1900 and 1910 censuses.

and city magistrate and clerk. The first section was carried by a vote of l28 to 40, thus showing that the peo- pie by large majority believed in the election of a mayor separately and the election of only half the council annually. In the voting for the separate election of paid city off cials the voting was 94 to 69 in favor. On the latter proposition a lot of electioneering has been done for per sonal and privately political reasons but the voters had evidently decided that the salaried officials in future must be independent as far as possi- ble of political rings in municipal governing bodies. Seward has cer- tainly shown its desire for clean government. The election is now only little more than a month away

VETERAN. S9, DUG HIS OWN
 GRAVE. NOW HAS SWEETHEART

Special to Gateway by United Press)
 MILWAUKEE, Wis, Feb. 22.- Out in Forest Home cemetery there is an open grave waiting for Francis Marion Collins, an inmate of the Soldiers home in this city. Five years ago, after Collins had been de uied permission by the cemetery authorities to dig his own grave, he went to the city of the dead one dark, rainy night and by the light of lantern prepared his own grave. Col lins is S9 years old. He had a tomb stone, inscribed as he directed, with everything but the date of his death, erected. But though Collins is nearly four score and ten years old and ready to die, he doesn't want to give up the ghost just yet. After making preparations for the last act of the long drama of his life, he turned eagerly to life and love. In fact he has a sweetheart now. Her first name is Annette. He won't tell the rest. She is keeping the veteran in- terested in life by writing him inter csting love letters and visiting him at the home several times a year Col Iins served four years during the war in the famous Company l, One Hun dred and Thirty-fourth Pennsylvania infantry, Army of the Potomac.
