pePoitS WHICH are TecelVeQ Dy letters from Juneau say that miners are leaving there by the wholesale owing to the fact that better wages are being paid outside than in Juneau. That poisonous fraud called the Alaska Labor Union which was devised by the Treadwell does not | seem to be specific for the low wages and higher costs of living. On, Friday which will be also Tag Day, weather permitting the Solomon Derby will be run Six of the elitest ones in dogdom will compete for the prize and the start CTS will be as follows in the order named: Seppala, Downing, Victor Anderson, Fred Aver, w. H. Webb, and DelZene. It is anticipated that there will be very close contest be- tween few of these which will make the race a humdinger which being interpreted means a record spurt of sped will be developed. Because of Kennel Club event postponements the Moose Burden handicap has also been set back and the race is now officially charted for Thursday March 15. Entries it is announced will be closed Monday next at 2 P. M. and entry blanks may be procured from J. V. Shel- don at the Alaska Bank The off, cials advise that any team desiring to start after closing time win have to start scratch and will re- ceive no benefit from the handi- capper.
 As the time moves on towards the municipal elections, one may hear discussed the candidates who will have aldermanic or mayoralty aspirations. It was stated to Worker representative that a com plete citizens ticket would be in the field for every office, but upon an effort being made to get a line on who might be the candidates, the informant was very evasive. The hold over councilmen are Rose, Ross and Burgh. The officials va aa nncitiOnS Marnr Mnl1nr Councilmen Wesley, M'Allister and Poteet It is reported that all four are likely to be again candidates for office although Dr. Wesley so far has not given any intimation to this effect. In addition officers to be elected include the city attorney and the city clerk. Both Clerk Grimm and Attorney O'Ncill will. it is understood, be candidates to sue ceed themselves.

Jimmy Began sang Mother Machroidhe in brilliant fashion. A recitation by Mrs. M. Walsh on the Irish flag elicited great applause. Mike Walsh deliv- cred without hesitancy or fault the deathless speech from the dock by | the hero whose anniversary was ce- lebrated. Thomas M'Gann with degree of Kettle fire and more than Milesian eloquence ably discussed the day that was celebrated and the man whose name they honored. Re | treatments of delicious variety were served. and after the program | was rendered dancing was enjoyed until a late hour, marking one of | the most successful celebrations in the history of the order in Nome.
