Democrats Win Legislature

William Britt, Democrat, with 8 torial Senator, defeating Ed. c. Rus sell.
 l. Sowerby, F. J. White and w. w Casey, Democrats, and John H. Da vies, Republican, have been elected Representatives. and Jerry J. Wiley Democrat, leads Jack Wilson by S4 for Road Commissioner and is prob ably elected.
 In the race for Representatives Davies the high Republican, leads Connors, the low Democrat by 121 Connors carried Gastineau Channel precincts, and the North end of the Division, but Davies big vote at Ketchikan and the South end of the Division has probably given him the election, though Connors is expected to run we'll in the unrepOrted pre- cincts.
 Casey, the next lowest Democrat leads Mccormack, the next highest Republican, by 7S votes, and his lead will probably be increased. Wiley's lead of S4 is expected to be increased.
 Gastineau Channel
 Delegate Sulzer carried Juneau by B votes and Gastineau Channel by 103. Sulzer's prize precinct on the Channel was Thane, where he re ceived 89 votes to "A for Wicker sham.
 Wickersham carried Douglas Isl and, where the vote was small, by IA, the vote being Sulzer 91, Wick ersham 105.
 The Democratic Divisional ticket all carried the Channel.
 Vote Was Small
 The downpour of rain, the influen- ga and other untoward conditions re suited in a small vote in the First Division caused a very small vote.
 The vote of the fishermen, who were mislead by the propaganda on the Sulzer Fisheries bill, was largely cast for Wickersham candidates throughout the First Division.
 Detailed First Division votes will be found in the table printed in this issue

THE DEMOCRATIC
SPIRIT IN MUSIC

Every school boy knows that you

Both are quite wrong. Music is
bigger than any one kind OF music.
II is a genuine and natural source of
delight Someone once described
music as the chief recreation for tired
humanity. At any rate it was in
tended not for a selected class but
for everyone. So, TO promote more
music. TO give tired humanity more
recreation there is no place for scott
ing sectionalism.
In the scheme of things musical,
there is room for the overalls the
dress-suit. and all the intermediate
types. The catchy fox-trot Is not
going to prove the means Of natural
expression for the same mood as a
weird polonaise. and vice versa. The
rousing military march. the aria from
grand opera, and the simple old hymn

If people get away from all pro-

they feel the real hunger OF a starved
appetite, they realize the
ability Of music TO satisfy all needs

The foregoing is but one illustra-
