 The Alaska election law passed by the last Leg islaure contains just two provisions that give any excuse at all for life. Those are the provisions re- terred tO-regisraton and the Australian ballot The need for the former requirement is made neces- sary here than in any other political division of the United States because Of another provision in the law that an electOr vote !u any precinct within his Division. The only safeguard at ell against fraud through this provision is that which requires the 10 register and thus give the officers of the law the evidence of fraud any is practiced that prosecution might follow. There is nothing to keep fraudulent votes of the ballot boxes. but registration holds the fear of punishment the head of illegal With the provision for registration diregarded there is absolutely safeguard about the election Instead there is plain invitation to any one who would cheat the people of their suffrage to do his worst
 And so with the Australian ballot It is a safe guard against fraud. When it is violated one of the two excuses Tor the existence Of Aaskas election law is knocked out

 The wife asCribes her happiness to these causes:
 Because I think there is like father
 Because l always willing to humor his little
 Because will do anything in the world to please him. food
 Because have always praised him when he deserved it.

This letter which hold in my hand contains error generally made at this time of the year. not because the writers are careless but because they have cultivated the habit of writing a certain thing mechanically
 During the life of the year expired the writers had grown accustomed to jotting down the numerals 1916. Doubtless first it required effort on their part to bear in mind that the last figure of the set and not 5 but after time the writing of became a mechancal act rather than mental act. It became second nature for them to write the date correctly.

The result is that instead of dating it January, 1917, he has dated it January, 1916. Just mechanical error, that's all.
