ducuOn to be seen here, which is

satirically because he is dreadfully

around this character.
"Lightnin' is a gentle and plausible

A. L. Johnson. president Of the
Board OF Directors OF the Street and
Sewer Department. says It is almost
impossible at this time to make need
ed street improvements In this city,
and that the department faces a ser
ious situation due to the lack OF labor
and materials.
"A fairly well settled plan is being
carried out, however" says Mr.. lonn-
son, "and progress being made on It
as circumstances demand"
Among the streets on which inn
prOVemenis are contemplated are Ian
caster avenue extending west from
Union street, Concord avenue east OF
the Boulevard, East Fourth street.
sections Of West Fourth street, Mary
land avenue and West Eighteenth
street.
Il was hoped 10 resurface Marget
street from the Brandywine bridge
TO Twenty-third street this year, but
inc closing OF Washington street
bridge, and the consequent increase
.of tranlo on Market street, has made
II almost impossible TO close sections
OF Market street at this time.
IL was pointed out in the state
ment that the matter OF street re-
pairs was progressing much better
since the Street and Sewer Depart
ment installed its own asphalt and
repair plant. II is no longer neces-
sary 70 wait for street improvements
until bids have been sent in, but the
work can be started at once as needed
with confidence that II will be done
at the lowest possible cost by the

yAkUTAT VOTE

 AND F. 4, HEATH
Spoiled Ballot Costs One ol Other Democratic Nom
 nation For Senator
--ryYYYYIIl

When a Yakutat voter in the pri- mary election of April 27, last, placed cross opposite the names of both Isaac Sowerby and E. A. Heath, thus spelling the ballot, he cost one or the other of the candidates the Dem ocratic nomination for Senator from the First Division and tied the count. The Yakutat returns were received at the office of the Clerk of the Court this morning.
 The election registers shows three Democratic voters and two Republi can voters. The tally sheet however. gives MT Sowerby q total of thres votes. and E. A. Heath one vote canvass of the votes revealed the fact that one of them was marked for both candidates, thus spelling the ballot and counting for neither one.
 Exclusive of the Yakutat vote, the count stood Heath 14S and Sowerby 146 The Yakutat returns as for warded by the election board for that precinct giving the former one and the latter three tied them with 149 each. The actual vote however, after throwing out the defaced bal lot gives each man 14S votes.
 The returns are now complete with the sole exception of Port Walter. It is not believed that any primary was held there. In such case it will leave the two men tied for the nom- nation for which there is no prece- dent in the Territory and which is apparently not covered by ,, the Al aska Election Law
 The Yakutat returns, with the ex ception of the race between Messrs Heath and Sowerby, do not alter the returns as published in The Empire yesterday
