BAY VOTE SHOULD
 BE, IN SOON

Politicians all over Alaska are anxiously awaiting the count of the Bristol Bay vote relative to the dele gate election. The count will prob ably take place today or tomorrow as the boat bearing the official re turns of those precincts is due to reach Valdez soon from Seward.
 It is thought that upon the vote in the Bristol Bay precincts depends who will be the next delegate to con gress from Alaska. For the vote is so close at the present time that 1t is impossible to even guess who will be the winner, providing that the Bristol bay precincts do not give one or the other of the leading candidates an overwhelming majori ty of the votes cast. Such a majority would probably have the effect o1 deciding the election, as far as most of the politicians are concerned, al though there have been mutterinS of proceedings before the canvassinG board and even before the house Of representatives, in order that tho contest may be decided.

SUMMER MAIL
 ID BE BID ON

According to an announcement made by Postmaster Deal yesterday bds for hauling first class ma. from the coast to Tai banks ne 4 summer will be called for on tn, coast. This contract will probably cover only part of the entire firt class mail which comes to Fairbanks
 MT. Deal would like to see all the first class come over the trail, as the time consumed by this route is about half that taken up by the river route. This might be done Il the bids submitted are put in at a figure that is low enough.
 Local automobile men hesitate to bid on the contract if the route is U be est; blished from Valdez, as was done last year. In the earl. summer, and again in the early fall the trail over the summit of tn coast range is well nigh impossible, , and makes the trip an uncort}i' ne. If, however, the route coll be tstabl shed from Chitina. the is no doubt that all the first class mail could te h; ndlcd with ease anj at a fairly low figure.

 When Robbie got to the office he found that there was a mistake about the money, as they only wanted him to sign few papers, and when he had done this he learned that If the revenue problems of the gov ernment are worked out and every body pays their national taxes, and the French government is not de stroyed in the meantime, he will probably get $9.G0, as part payment for the SEQ which was lost when the Sussex went down. The French think that if he did not know the Germans any better than to risk that amount of money he deserves to lose it, and they are hard up at his time, too, so they can only pay him the above sum. And Bobb.e says if they are that short he is going to try to "Hoch the Kaiser" for the other $10.40.

'' 'DUC" MORGAN MAKING NAME
 fOR HIMSELF

R. Douglas Morgan, who will best be remembered in Fairbanks as a violinist and sportsman, but who, at various times also worked on the newspapers here as linotype ope- rator, is making a name for himself among eastern sportsmen. This is evidenced by an article appearing in Arm and the Man." sporting pa per, in the latter part of December. Dug" is now located at Washing ton, D. C., and the article regarding him has quite a little to say regard ing his Alaskan experiences ana where he learned to break 233 blue rocks without a miss, thus winning the amateur championship Of well known eastern gun club. The art. cle is as follows:
 When R. Douglas Morgan, of Wash ington, D. C., broke 233 clay targets in one continuous run in the West. Hogan trap shooting tournament at Atlantic City in the fall he edged hi way into the trapshooters' Hall oi Fame.
 On the day of Moreans splendid performance it was raining and tho wind was blowing d gale and tine conditions were anything but good or the shattering of the elusive claya, but it was Morgan's weather
 After he had broken 150, and smashed them all in the cente". shooters began asking, who is tn fellow Morgan?" Morgan, very quiet, unassuming man, 54 years old, spO! ting a Van Dyke beard, paid no attention to the inquiries but went right along and won the amateu championship of the Hogans.
 Since that time we have learned who this fellow Morgan is' an why he shot so well in the gale at Venice Park Fifteen years in tn Klondike gold fields fitted Morgan for just such trial. In those l years Morgan learned lot of things, but was never successful in banning any great number of nuggets. Morgan went up to the Klondike ,egiOns with the usual miners ups and downs. He was accompanied by two friends. They packed their own outfit of 5000 pounds over the Ch.lkoot Pass, whipsawed their lum- Der from native spruce built their own boats, navigated the Yukon and ran Five Finger Rapids and White Horse Rapids.
 Morgan mined in and about Daw- l son with the usual miners ups and l uOWnS.

While in Dawson Morgan promot- l ed and played in the first and only baseball game that has ever been staged at midnight. This was on June 21, 1898, On the same occa. sion he shot at 100 blue rocks under the midnight sun. Morgan and his partners killed all their own game. of which there was a plenty in the gold fields.

 more than once. They come to Alaska from the Outside, usually, with the idea that life here is much the same as 1t is in the lands they have left to come north, and possibly they are right to some extent. But the north has it's own peculiarities, and these the chee chaco must learn to distinguish.

 Last summer a young couple came to Fairbanks from the Outside, and like all cheechacoes they took things as they found them. Of course, as they have been going along, they have been observing the difference in conditions between Alaska and ,he Outside, particularly as regards the weather.

WILSON THREATENED.

An assistant district attorney op- ened the case by stating what the government expected to prove. He said that the prosecution will show that Mooney was directly impllcat- ed in throwing the bomb on prepar- edness day which resulted in the death of several persons and in jury of others, and that he had been hired to do the job by Berkman and other anarchist leaders. He com- mented upon Berkman as the leader of an anarchist conspiracy which threatened President Wilson's life, reading, as he did so, an editorial in Blast" an anarchisuc publIca- tion published by Berkman. This ar ticle said, in part: The suppression of anarchistic publications is not safe for the weather cock in the White House and he knows it. The sup pressing of the voice of discontent leads to assassination" Continuing, the assistant district attorney said that Mooney, one of the defendants now on trial, was the writer of the editorial
