 It is generally conceded here that the "drys" would have won two months ago when the petition was first circulated.

GEO. TAMIL TON MEETS DEATH
 BY DROf kINC
YOUNG FAIRBANk SAN FALLS FROM BARGE AND FINDS
 A WATERY GRAVE.

George Hamilton. young man vnl has made Fairbanks his resi- 4encc for the past seven years. met death ty drowning in the Cinema river shortly before noon on Satur- day The body was recovered Sat urday afternoon. or after the boat on which Hamilton had been travel Ing had returned to Fairbanks with news of his death
 Hamilton was one of the opera tors of the power boat Galatea, which Is running on the river be tween Fairbanks and Nenana. his partner in the enterprise being George Black The boat left Fair banks about II o'clock Saturday morning. pushing barge load of freight and carrying seven passen- gers. Among those who were on he craft were Wm Sinehold Harry Luckey and Mir and Mrs. Leon Kellum.
 Hamilton was in the bow of the barge manipulating sweep which had been placed there to assist in guiding the boat And it is thought that the sweep struck bottom and. flying back. knocked Hamilton into the river For the first that was known of his absence from the boat was when he was seen strug- gling in the river with his hand on the sweep. which had evidently been carried into the river with him.
 When it was known that Hamil- lon was ill the water the barge was cut loose from the boat and the lat ter craft turned upstream. Hamll- ton at first had a hold on the sweep, but just as the boat was turned toward where he was struggling in the water he sank. never to rise again The body was found in about seven feet of water. and had drift ed about 125 feet from the place where Hamilton went into the river. The accident happened just below the mouth of Deadman's slough, in comparatively quiet water
 Hamilton was well known here and had many friends. He was about 30 years of age It is under stood that he is survived by his v., l h,- hrnt hnr I sisters. all of whom live in Patter- sen. New Jersey. They have been communicated with. and no funeral arrangements will be made until they are heard from
 Commissioner Reed w. Heilig has investigated the drowning and states that, in his opinion, no in quest will be necessary. It is there fore probable that the funeral cere, pices of the Fairbanks aerie of the Fraternal Order of Eagles. of which the deceased was a members.
 During his seven years residence in Fairbanks young Hamilton had made his home at Mrs. Lyle Lau- meister's rooming house. In fact, as was stated by Mrs. Laumeister last evening when questioned con- corning the matter, he was like one Of the family For, although he had spent long periods of time in the hills. he always kept his room at his home in Fairbanks, return ing to it each time when he came ic from his trips

\ PRESIDENT FOR AMERICANS

Col Roosevelt has given assur- ances to a corresp spondent of a French newspaper, the Petit Parisien, that Mir. Hughes would be a more satis- iactory President for the allies than Nr. Wilson
 The German,American alliance has given assurances to the German ,oters that Mir Hughes would be a more satisfactory President for Ger many than Mr Wilson.
 Somebody is evidently mistaken, but one thing is sure. Whether Mr Hughes would be a better Presi- dent for the allies or the Germans than Mir. Wilson MT Wilson is a better President for the American people.
 Whenever the United States un- dortakes to elect a President for the allies or for Germany, MT. Hughes claims will be entitled to respectful consideration. But in the year 1916 the American people are electing a President for themselves.

DAWSON, Aug. 3l.-With returns in from 24 of the largest polling places and F of the smaller outly-

WELCOME to our fair city, MT Sulzer.
 EVEN the Times press report is not telling of the splitting of many pairs of gloves from applauding MT Hughes speeches,
 JUST because Mr Hughes has ac- cepted the Republican nomination is no sure sign that the people will accept Mr. Hughes as our next President
 THAT $81126,O48 profit of the Steel Trust in ninety-one days does not average quite a million day, Sundays included but what could be expected under Democratic free trade?"
 MIR HUGHES is much like the Fairbanks Times. The Times is forever telling MT Wilson how to conduct the affairs of the United States government, yet it cannot make it's own checks good.
 THE most serious charge that can be made against President Will sons administration is the person nel of some of his appointments, especially in the Fourth Division of Alaska. This should not be charged up against him, however, for had he known them as well as we do he would not have made them in a thousand years.
