PURCHASE OF ALASKA BOATS
 BOATS TURNED DOWN.

Owing to the shortage of tonnage on the Pacific coast many bidders are in the field for all kinds of crafts. It was learned today that the North western Fisheries Company, during the past week, has turned down two very flattering offers for the purchase of it's fleet, which consists of several sailing vessels. As this fleet is en- gagged in the Alaska cannery business the company rejected all offers.

|S 4 CANDIDATE FOR
 GOVERNOR

Through some channels which it is impossible to follow the report has come that Jafet Linderberg, one of the discoverers of Nome, and the pre- sident of the Pioneer Mining Company, will be candidate for the governor ship of the territory if the Republi-- cans win the national elections this year. Iinderberg is a reputed mil lionaire and is undoubtedly popular For several years, even before he be- came a full fledged American citizen, Linderberg has been associated in a prominent way with Republican poli- tics and was even a delegate to a na- tional convention. He was also re- gently decorated by the king of Nor way. The question of 6 candidate for Republican gubernatorial honors seems now to be agitated quite a bit. There is nothing more heard about the idea that Wickersham will be a can didatc, but one might guess that no thing more will come out until after the Republican territorial convention One little item which must be taken into account, however, is the side that will be elected in the presidential truggle.-Seward Gateway.

UNPARALLED PERIOD OF HEAT
More than Three Hundred Persons Die as
result in Chicago-Hundreds of
Prostrations

| The intense heat, extending over the
entire area from the Alleghanies Oh the
east to the Rocky Mountains on the west
which terminated last Monday morning,
was the worst in length Of duration, SO
far as records show, which the Mississippi
Valley has ever experienced.
The maximum temperature in Chicago
last Lords Day was 1O1.7. At sever
clock in the evening not a breeze stirred
and the air was like the sitting breath
of furnace The record was the highest
in Chicago since July 21, 1910, when the
government thermometer registered 1929.
At that time, however, the heated spell was
not SO long sustained.
Following long spell of almost inces-
SAINT rains, the sun in the North Shore
region did not 60 behind cloud from
July to July IL. This record was in
turn passed, when the sun shone from
July 21 to July 80, a total Of ten days; and
it was during the last week Of this period
that the torrid heat developed.
The hot weather Of last week will long
be remembered by people living in Chica-
go and within radius Of several hundred
miles Of that city. During the last three
days of the period, three hundred and nine
deaths resulted from the heat, in the city
of Chicago alone, and there were hundreds
Of prostrations.
Last Friday it was announced by the
Chicago Board Of Health that one out Of
every five babies newly born in that city
was dying, directly or Indirectly, from
the heat. During the terrible heat of
Saturday and Sunday, this percentage was
greatly increased.
In addition to deaths among the popu-
lace, large numbers Of horses and other
animals were stricken down, and a con-
siderable number of persons were bitten
by half f-crazed dogs.
With many people in the loop district
it was simply fight for life, and people
crowded to the Lake Front and into the
parks by the tens Of thousands. Last Fri
day alone, it was estimated that 600, ,OOC
people sought relief in the parks.
During the early part Of Sunday night
it was almost impossible to secure sleeE
or rest, but just before daybreak love

SIR ROGER EASEMENT HANGED

Sir Roger Easement was hanged at Pen
tonville Jail in London at nine o'clock on
the morning Of August 3rd for high trea-
son. Every effort had been made to Sc
cure reprieve for the prisoner, but with
out avail.
Lord Robert Cecil, British Minister OF
war trade, gave out a statement to the
Associated Press, in which he said:
"No doubt of Easement guilt exists.
No one doubts that the court and jury
arrived at the right verdict The only
ground for reprieve would be political
expediency, a difficult ground to put for
ward in that this country never could
strain the law to punish a man for the
same reason that it could not strain the
law to let one off, "

twenty-five per cent for the three north
western states amounts to about 50,00O,.
900 bushels
The two Dakotas have already lost 35.-
100000 bushels.
1t is now possible that the total crop in
the United States will not exceed 7OO.-
100000 bushels The Canadian crop is
expected to be at least 1O0,000000 bushels
less than year ago, making the North
American crop 400O00,OOO bushels less
than in 1915.
While the big carry-over will partially
offset the shortage this year, changed con-
ditions, it is claimed, mean that there will
be no really low prices for wheat for the
coming season.
Chicago prices have now advanced near
ly twenty-three cents from the lowest
point Of the season, quoted a few weeks
ago.

THIRD YEAR OF THE GREAT WAR
BEGINS

Two years ago, on July 28, Austria de-
clared war ON Serbia The great Euro
pean struggle has, therefore, now entered
upon it's third year.
Lord Kitchener, at the beginning, pre-
dicted that the war would last three years
Although many prominent writer's at the
time differed from him, events now seem
to verify his judgment.
Intelligent students Of the wars pro
gress believe that, before another twelve
months, the nations of Europe will be
ready to at least discuss peace. AS one
observer remarks:
cone Of two things the third year seems
likely to bring: Either the entente pow
ers will discover that the task OF driving
Germany back within her borders is too
stupendous for achievement, or the cent
raj empires will collapse and ask for
terms Of settlement. Unless we misJudge
all the indications, the tide Of Teuton vic
tory has reached it's highest mark. How

is a question yet to be determined. That
! present holdings will be increased, is the
| least probable of all possibilities. -
In other words, the Teutons are now
practically everywhere on the defensive
| The question is this: Can the allies
drive them back, or will they succeed in
holding their lines intact? Will the cent
raj powers become exhausted and reduced
or will the allied nations expend them
selves in trying to subdue their enemies
According to official statements just
given out from Berlin, the soldiers OF
Germany, Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria, ano
Turkey, in the two years OF warfare just
concluded, have captured a total of 1858,
