The Primary Showing

Republicans should not be discouraged by the respective demonstrations of the two parties at the primaries Of course they will not be discouraged either at that by the discrepancy between the strength of their party and that of the democratic party shown by the registration far Only that part of the undecided which always desires to stronger side will allow itself to be swayed by appearance of superior numbers. fjut to repub lcans as a rule the fact that the combined vote for Olney and Hunt will be much greater than the vote for Campbell will mean nothing.
 It would be strange if the republican vote at the primary not light one. We suppose that hun dreds of republicans who have registered will not attend the primary. There many other hundreds who did register for the that there impending that would require their for decision.
 A very large number of ill-advsed republicans have been registered democrats for other pur- pose than to vote for certain democratic candidate at the primary. How many such registrations there is conjecturaL In the counties of Maricopa and Pima alone there said to be not fewer than 70O In the latter county where the republicans have systematic checking system the than 300 repub- licans who have been registered have all been interviewed and all have declared that they are as good republicans and expect to repub lcan ticket at the general election.
 In all these circumstances 1t may be expected that the democrats will make much superior show ing at the primary though it will fall far short of the vote they boiled two years at the primary, for the registration is much lighter than it then Hundreds of democrats have neglected to register and many democrats have registered independents and cannot, therefore take part in the primary But in spite of their defecton the number of democrats and primary democrats, Qrepublcans) will greatly exceed the number of a formaty at the republican primary

MODEL RURAL SCHOOL
 FIRST IN ARIZONA

New to the professional work in the Normal, and, in fact, the first school of it's kind to be established in the state, is the new model rural school that is to be opened two miles south of Tempe on September IS. Taken over shortly after the close of the term in the spring, the rural school building has been renovated completely; the grounds have been improved and school will be opened in one of the best equipped one-room schools in the state.
 Associated with the Normal training school as it is, Miss Louise Lynd will have charge of the school and will give her entire time to it. Enough teachers will be supplied that children may have individual attention in all sub jects. It is planned to give special at tention to music and drawing, play ground supervision and neighborhood activities. A truly model rural school is the aim of those behind its estab- | lishment.
 The training school proper and the kindergarten department will open as previously announced, on next Monday morning, September II.

IN POLITICAL CIRCLES

Five hundred or more Tempeans turned out night before last to hear politics discussed by the George A. Ol- ney forces, and as many people were disappointed because there failed to leak into the meeting any of the ex- citing incidents that predominated at the Hawkins rally on the Monday night before. Judge Baker talked; w. T. Webb talked, and George A. Olney talked some more, and number of ex- cellent musical selections were render ed by the Merchants band. Attorney F. C. Struckmeyer, who was billed for a meeting here at the same hour spoke for a couple of minutes prior to the Olney session, on his candidacy for the attorney generalship. Henry l.. Eads, republican candidate for representa- tive to congress, cancelled his date for Tempe that evening in favor of the other politicians, with the promise that he would get back to Tempe after the primaries, if nominated then.

Discoveries of carvings on the .Ocks at the southwestern end of Kodiak Island seem to connect the history of that place with the stone age. according to IL H.

In our telegraph columns today ap- hears an item from Seward relative Ia s speech made thereTuesday night b. Delegate Wickersham The mes saee came from our Seward core sa,ndont, the Alaska Evening Post which paper is pro-Wickersham. We ,ab,ish the telegram practically as ,-..,i,,d and in doing so have no a.,.l,p.cs to make But We do de s.re fo disclaim any intention of this paper to make an attack on Col.

 The speech made by the delegate al Seward is an outcome Of the quar- rel between himself and Col. Rich .rison. ol long standing. And he b.s made other like speeches. The yliification ot the road builder on fh. pal1 of the delegate at the pres eDt time is undoubtedly due to the fact that Col. Richardson and his friends have just caused an attack on Delegate Wickersham to be dis trfbuted in pamphlet form throughout the territory.
 May the day be hastened when these two men, both big men in Al aska. will settle their differences and agree upon something. For with them working in harmony in stead of at odds. great deal more good could be accomplished for the territory.

ITS JUST BULL.

Perfervid bursts of political oratory now flood the land from stem to stern, but the good burgers on board the ship of state are not seriously frightened. Perhaps the reason for that feeling is that those prophets have so often threatened sand bars and destroying tornadoes that never came
 The savage ire with which they tear one another passes the ordinary man like distant snowslide. It affects him very little. The furi- ous language that two distinguished Americans hurled at one another four years ago was received with calmness by the people and they are not likely to be deeply moved by any violent as sertions of the modern knights of the tongue.
 IL seems that the calmer the people as whole become the more obstrep- erous the politicians vociferate. Per haps in the course of time those gen tlemeR will learn that reason and deeds will get them much more than vitu- peration. It is a good sign for our citi- zenship when the voters are immov- able in the face of a storm, whether il be a real or conjured one.

MINING OF ALASKA
 TIN IS PROFITABLE.

Gales blowing day in and day out, and only stopping long enough for the wind to change to another quar- ter have proved too hard problem for even the ferocious Alaskan mos manager of the American Tin Dredg- ing company The company ope- rates on Buck creek, near York. 50 miles north of Teller MT. Graham works force of men on the dredge all the summer season. and while other marsh districts of the north are simply swarming with mosQui- toes, this region, which Is right on the coast, gets the full sweep of the gales from the Arctic ocean and is kept free from the pests. There is too much wind for the insects to even get a foothold on solid ground. let alone trying to fly up into a mans face" said MT. Graham. The wind blows almost constantly. The only time when 1t is ever calm at other quarter Then there may be period of a few minutes when there is no breeze" The American Tin Dredging company takes out about sixty tons of tin in a season, says Mir Graham. This tin, which is sold in Singapo brings about Sl 900 ton. But for every ton of tin recovered from the bed of the river the workers get about $22 in gold dust and nuggets. According to MT. Graham, the company has several years work ahead of 1t, and as they are working from the streams mouth upwards the deposits should get rich CT as they go up stream We are one of the few tin mining com. panies in the country" he said. We particles from the bottom of the stream just like gold is dredged else where. While we ship our ore to Singapore, a new smelling company which handles tin is now operating in New Jersey. and we may ship our product there. The tin ore we get runs about 6S12 per cent pure, so you can see it is valuable pro- duct"

It consists of a group of fourteen claims. covering three veins of the average width of 45 feet, 10 feet and 65 feet respectively. Col. Mill lard says reports from experienced mining engineers who have exported the property. say the ore values range from 1850 to $5.1O per ton, and is 5,bOut three times the values found aska There has been about S20,OO0 spent in development work on these claims, opening up vast quantity of ore, but owing to dissension among the parties interested, nothing but the assessment work has been done for two or three years past By a decision of the court, the title to the property has been cleared up and is now in the hands of C. C. Canavan. Col. Willard will have the annual
 assessment work performed on the property this fall. the season being 100 far advanced to start work at this time, and during the winter and will make preparations for de- veloping the claims on an extensive scale. uc pIOpelly IS duiuIIdDly situated for economical mining and milling, there being an abundance of waterpower available for all purposes und with water transportation right 10 the property through Alagnic slough and Mckinley lake Col Mil lard is much pleased with his deal and confidently predicts that the property will become one of the l largest producers in Alaska.

WHICH IS IT?

large number of the people or Fairbanks have been asking them selves. as well as others they meet these days, this question: Which ls the governing power in Fairbanks the city council or the Fairbanks Automobile Club?" The reason for the question is obvious to all those who have to cross the streets of Fairbanks at any time Of the day or nicht For il can trutnfully be said that the cross walks ot the city were never before in the condition that they are at present, and all because the council, at the request Of the automobile club, had the crossings lowered when new ones were put in last summer.
 At the time the crossings were put in very few people gave the matter a thought They supposed that, as long as low crossings would be an accommodation to those who owned automobiles, it would be all right ts put them in that way The fact that the city council might not keep the crossings cleaned off never occNF- red to the majority of the people who are today made the sufferers to certain extent For there is not a crossing in town that can be used for anything better than mud wallow.
 The question is not who should be considered, the pedestrian or the au tomobile owner, for the aatomoh owner has already received the con sideration of the city in the matter of the lowering of the street cross ings But the rights of the pedes trian should at least be respected by the city to the extent of keeping those low crossings, particularly iA the down town district, cleaned off.

He reports that he searched all of the sloughs in the vii cinity of the supposed drowning, and that he found no sign which would indicate anything concerning the whereabouts of Gilliland's body. He made a pretty thorough search too. although the rising of the water on the last day he was searching kept him from staying there one day more.
