Tis hard after all to account for the big vote boiled by Suzer against Wickesham Hitherto has been con. sdered that the only advantage be gained in opposing Mr. Wickersham is to have some attorney put forward for job when he became the so-caed standard bearer Deep down in his heart there was probably not one Demo- crat who believed that Suzer could have defeated the Honorable James It is not hard to understand how one precinct might change or two three but apparently every district in the territory to the conclusion all at once not to go so strong for Wckesham The vote at Ketchkan was a surprise to both sides The Democrats had been expecting to carry by large majority but it went about eyen In the last election out of some five hun dred votes all the opponents of Wckelsham received in Ketchkan only total of about 60 votes This time Suzer got hundreds of votes there Seward and Nome remain about the same but the Fourth division Wickershams home division let him down badly and apparently for no greater reason than they had The sudden change of opinion all over the territory on the delegate question is really remarkable It means the end of Wckersham eith or in two years and also means the end of mug wmnpey the politics of the territory The cause of the delegates political undong was perhaps not so much himself as some of his followers.

FLAGS FOR SCHOOL !9,)l HOUSES 1,)l-

AS will be seen elsewhere, commit
tees from most of the fraternal or
ders of Alexandria appeared before
tho Cit,y School Board, last night, ana ana
1 r,, that the law of the General
Assembly providing for flags for pub
lie School school buildings be carried . out.
John H. Trimyer, chairman OF the
Joint Joint, committees, and j. William "a. !.
Nav, secretary, in brief but pointed
addresses made known the wishes
of the orders represented.
The board determined to lay the
matter before the City Council as
soon as possible and the petition sub
mitted by the organizations will be
sent to that body next Tuesday night.
An appropriation will be needed IN
order to carry out the law.
During the past quarter Of CEN
tury the propriety of placing Amerl-
can flags upon public school buildings
has been recognized by certain PEaatrrl-
otto orders, and the Fraternal
Americans of this city have since
their organization manifested COM
,mendable interest in the. matter
Their insignia is the open Bible and
the flag Of the country land they have
at their own expense placed the Stars
land Stripes upon school buildings in
this city and upon others in the coun-
ty. The fag-raisings have been in
teresting occasions, having been ac-
companied by appropriate ceremonies
which have been enjoyed by all in at
tendance.
For time flags floated from Wash
ington and Lee structures, but wind
and rain eventually ruined the hall
yards and the flags became battered
and faded, and the School Board,
having no funds at their. disposal, the
flags could not be replaced. Hence
those which at one time fioated over
those buildings have not been seen
for some time.
Twenty-eight members of the vari-
Gus fraternal organizations of the
city composed the delegation which
visited the Lee school building last
night to present their petition to the
board. The board as. soon as called
to order invited the petitioners into
the room and listened to their state
ments.
