SULZER LEADS WITH ONLY FOUR PRECINCTS
 YET TO HEAR FROM

All of the precincts in the territory have made theH returns on the dele gate election with the exception of Naknek, Nushagak, Dillingham; and Koggiung. in the Bristol bay district and as the total vote now stands Sul ger has a plurality of 27 votes.
 James Patterson of Valdez leads Jo- scph II. Murray of Mccarthy for the legislature by seven votes.
 The following returns were received by the clerk of the district court at Valdez on Saturday night:
 Kenai-Sulzer. '; Wickersham. II.
 Nonilchie - Sulzer, 5; Wicker sham, 4.
 Sanak-Sulzer, 3; Wickersham, G.
 Chignik-Sulzer, II; Wickersham, 5.
 Unga-Sulzer, 23; Wickersham, 3l.
 Iliamna-Sulzer, 14; Wickersham, O.
 There Is little probability of hearing from the unreported precincts. where it Is estimated there are about sev- enty-ive votes. Koggiung held no election two years ago Naknek is 150 miles from Cold Bay. whore the small boats touch. and 1t Is 100 miles further inland to Nushagak. There are not likely to be any returns re- ceived from that section this winter, or before the official count takes place.

FORT LISCUM
 BOYS WANT TO
 RETURN HOME

The Alaska boys. who are attached to Company E. at Fort Liscum, are anxious to be discharged now that the war is over and have written to the Cordova branch of the National Council of Defense praying that they be allowed to return to their usual pursuits. They presnt very good and plausible reason why they should no longer be retained at the fort and request that the matter be taken up with the proper officials in order that speedy action may be secured. The boys are from COrdoya and the Cop per river valley. Seward, Valdez, An chcrage and other coast towns The justice of the contention of the sol diers was recognized by the local council and it instructed it's presi- dent, Geo C. Hazelet. to Communi- c:tc with the Territorial council ask ing that these men be returned home wfere they are needed on account of the labor shortage, which has been done. ItsStommun.cation of Com pany B. Thirteen Battalion. United Stcos Guards, is as follows:
 We, the members of Company B. r. s. Guards desire to aCquaint you with conditions existing at Fort Lis cum with a view to securing your CO operation
 Company B. is composed of 15S men. Ninety-eight percent of these men are Alaskans. drawn from the industries or Alaska. We have every reason 10 beliove-in fact at one time we were told that orders had been received to discharge us. but after several weks of dilly-dallying we are now told that we vii have to remain here until June or July. They tell us that we cannot be discharged until navigation opens in the interior so that the soldiers stationed at Fort Gibon and other interior points can also be relieved We believe this to be untrue; and should 1t be true, we believe it to be unjust. especially in view of the shortage of labor that is bound to exist In Alaska the coming season.
 DO not misunderstood us. We are not in any way trying to shirk or evade any duty that our country asks of us. During the crisis just passed there was not a man of us who was not willing to make the supreme sacrifice" but now that the emer- gcncy has passed and the war is virtually over we are anxious to get back to work for ourselves. especially as 1t is an utter impossibility to do any training during the winter months. We are simply staying here at the expense of the government of tte United Staes. doing no good either for ourselves or for the gov ernment.
 We believe that like conditions prevail at Fort Seward This would make total of 300 men who are be- ing held at this time when the season is just opening and their services are so badly needed for the development of the Territory.
 We. therefore most earnestly re- quest that you take this matter up with our governor and our delegate that we may receive an early dis charge and get back to work to help develop the industries that are so vital to the future of Alaska"

BARNEY OLDFIELD'S
 GOLDEN SUBMARINE
 WILL RACE MAY q

Indianapolis, Ind.-Barney Oldfield will compete in the 500-mile Liberty Sweepstakes on the Indianapolis speedway, May 31. in spirit but not in person. Oldfield has filed his entry for the Oldfield special, with Roscoe Saries, the Los Angeles sensation, as the pilot
 For two years Oldfield drove the car under the name Golden Submarine,7 IS 1t had a body in which the driver was entirely enclosed anddhe body had been gilded. That the car has speed and lots of it, is attested by the official records of the contest board of the 4. A. A., which show that it holds all he worlds dirt track non competitive marks from one to 50 miles. Oldfield drove the car to it's records in July 1917 on the Maxwelton track in St. Louis. He covered the mile in 45 sec onds Hat, which is merely so miles an hour and the 70 miles in 40:4760. only 13.57 miles an hour. This may not seem fast to the fans who have watched the averages climb but it is faster by far than any other driver has ever been able to drive on a dirt track.
 Oldfield is not given 10 picking win ners or making rash predictions but maintains that he believes that Sarles 1fill make the best substitute that he could find for the car as long as he himself will not drive. Barney points 10 Roscoe's record. In four starts on he Pacific coast the former mecnanfc

and relief driver for Louis Chevrolet has copped three firsts. in the other race a spectator wandered on the course and Sarles deliberately wrecked his machine to keep from running down this curious individual. Oldfield opines that if Sarles does not meet with an accident that he will one day wear the speed kings crown and wield his scepter.
 After Oldfield made the deal with Sarles on the coast a few weeks ago Roscoe and Waldo Stein. Barney's me chanic- chauffeur, took the car 10 Har- " Millers shops in Los Angeles to re- build ii. The car will have more speed this year than ever before as Miller has done some things to the engine that Oldfieid expects will add not less than five or 10 miles an hour. Also the old body held the car back because of the large amount of surface that encount- cred the resistance of the atmosphere. Now 1t is fitted with narrow stream line body, having a tail that weigh, less than 30 pounds.
 In fact Barney eXudes so much con- fidence that when he filed the entry he was almost willing to accept the win ner's end of the purse and begin count ing out the $20,000 that goes with first place.

RUBBER COMPAN|ES| IN
 b|G ATHLETIC LEAGUE

Among the many interesting features of the seething industrial activity of Akron, Ohio, the worlds largest rub Der manufacturing center, is the prom thence of athletics in the affairs of the great tire building concerns All of the big four" such as Miller, Good year, Firestone and Goodrich, and sev- eral of the smaller companies have their own extensive athletic associa tions supervised by the American In dustrial Athletic association. Compe- ton is keen in all sports including boxing, bowling, wrestling, basketball, track, baseball and football.
 Just at this time the Miller Athletic association, an organization sponsored by the Miller Rubber company, manu- lecturers of uniform mileage tires and druggists sundries, is attracting un- usual attention. During the war. the company had little time for sports it's main ambition was to keep up with the demands of the various war boards. As soon, however, as the war orders were cancelled and regular production got under way again, athletic interest was revived.
 There is no more enthusiastic SUD- porter of athletics in the company than one of it's most prominent officials F. c. Milhoff, the general sales man. ager. For years he has been a devotee of the boxing game, for which Akron is noted from coast to coast Horse racing is another of his favorite sports. In fact, he is an ardent admirer of both indoor and outdoor pastime and is one of the most loyal rooters that Miller has
 "Suey' Welch, one of the best known recreation men in Akron, is head of the Miller recreation department. Mil Ter baseball talent is htaded by the great Nap" Lajoie, of long distinction in major league baseball, who is a Miller salesman in Cleveland. At the factory in Akron, are such industrial baseball stars as Lefty Wilhelm and Larry Yeager, members of a Cleveland championship team last year; Jack Bline and Stubby Hartgrove, who played with Akrons championship | club in 1918, are also in the aggrega- tion. General" Vaughn, another Ak ron star, heads the pitching staff with Beanny HeinzIeman holding down first base.
 With the Miller girls planning on taking an active part in athletics and the above widely known industrial league men available for the teams, it promises to be big Miller year.

USE TRACER BULLET
 IN AERIAL SHOOTING

tfrom tn Scientific American>
 One fact about aerial fighting which has never been mentioned is that, after the first sight has been obtained, the pilot never uses his sight at all. He watches the bullets-literailyl That is. he watches the tracer ammunition. One in every three shots is a cracer-a bull let which trails little path of smoke; and it is much more interesting to watch the tracers than it is to keep the eye on the sights.
 Most pilots would like to use all tracers if they could, for they kill as readily as the regular bullets. But, unfortunately. tracer ammunition is dirty, and will soon choke the bore of the gun. As it is. great many pilots load their magazines and belts with every other one tracer, though it is strictly against the rules. The tempta-
Arizona republican., 1919-05-04

tion, though, is too great to be resisted.
 The tracer is made the same as the ordinary bullet, except that, in the end, is small quantity of magnesium which ignites. It is not quite accurate, as it is lighter and drops a little in it's flight. but it serves it's purpose wonderfully.
 There is a fortune waiting for the man who can devise tracer that will not foul the bore, and which will ac- cordingly permit the aviator, or indeed any machine gunner operating at short range, to employ it exclusively.

The attacks and pogroms have not
as yet stopped. The Poles do not
spare anyone. They even attacked the
home of the Rabbi of Kozenitz and ar.
rested 20 "Chasidm." The attack was
made Saturday night when there were
many "Chasidim" at the house of the
Rabbi. The Police claim that the gath
ering there did not look like relig-
ious one but more like a political one.
All those arrested were finally freed.

POLAND MAX ES 4 FARCE OUT
OF 4 POGROM SUIT.

London, Aug. 6.-(By |. J. p. b.
A trial took place at Kalich of those
who were charged with making the
pogrom there upon the Jews. The
whole trial was a farce. Out of all
the accused only one Pole was con-
demned to 20 months Imprisonment
freed. Even the one who was con-
demned to 20 months Imprisonment
received his punishment not because
he made pogroms but because they
caught him stealing.
During the trial details were also
found out of how badly the Jews are
treated in the prison camps. The
counsel for defense treated the whole
trial not as a pogrom suit but as an
incident altho in this incident one fell
dead and s were wounded, and the in
IDENTITIES amounted to several thou
sand mares.
