Bruce Am ounces Plan Of Campaign
William Cabell Bruce said yester-
day that he expects to make his cam
paign for the United States Senate
mainly along the line of an attack
upon the public record of his Repub-
lican competitor, Senator Joseph Ir-
win France.
"ln the primary campaign just
ended" said Mr.. Bruce, "Mr. Lewis
Mr.. Norris and myself were all
Democrats and represented the tradi-
tional principles of Democracy.
will Assail Frances Position.
II propose to attack Senator
Frances record on these questions,
and in so doing my own Democratic
principles necessarily will be brought
out. On such matters as the tariff,
our foreign policy, disarmament, Gov
ernment control of industry and fed
eral interference with the rights Of
the States | differ widely from Sena-
tor France. and | propose to discuss
his record on those matters on the
stump, with an explanation of my
own views"
Mr.. Bruce said he had formed no
plans in regard to headquarters or
committee for the general campaign.
Both the State and city Bruce head
quarters in the Hotel Rennert were
closed Monday night. Mr.. Bruce said
that the engagement of Carville d..
Benson as his primary campaign
manager terminated at the same time.
II was suggested that the State Con-
vention probably will tender the sue
cessful candidate the courtesy of
naming his own campaign chairman.

Defeated Candidates
Barred From Running
AS Independents

Defeated candidates in the primary
election Monday automatically are
debarred from running Us Independent
candidates in the coming general
election, under law passed at tire
last session of the Legislature.
The new law probably will result in
a reduction of the number of inde-
pendent candidates in elections gen.
orally. 1t has been a somewhat COM
mon practice for men who lose in the
primaries to continue their fights for
office by securing independent nomi-
nation by petition.
Daniel c. Joseph, member of the
House of Delegates from Baltimore
city, introduced the bill c,mending the
old law relating to nomination by
petition The bill attracted little at
tention. il is said, and was not op-
posed strongly.
The new provision reads:
"No person who has been canal
date for nomination by a political
party at the primary elections pre-
cedng a general election shall be
nominated for an office to be filled at
such general election in the manner
prescribed by this section"
Another change in the law requires
a larger number of signatures to
petitions for nomination. In the case
of Statewide offices the minimum
number of signerS was raised from
500 to 1000.

PALMER CREEK ROAD

One of the important matters dis cussed at the meeting of the eXecutiv committee of the Seward Chamber Commerce yesterday was the reques from John Hirshey, a prominent min ing operator on Palmer Creek, for as sistance in obtaining road up Palmer Creek providing transportation to a very promising missing district.
 The road requested connects witt the present wagon road up Resurrec tion Creek from Hope at the mouth 0 Palmer Creek. There is road up Pal mer creek for nearly half it's length, the greater part of which has been built by Hirshey. It is is estimated that this road can be extended up to the head of the creek for the sum of little over five thousand dollars Min ing Inspector Stewart has recommend ed that such a road is absolutely ne- ccsasry for the development of this very promising quartz mining district There are several very likely pros poets on the creek and the Hirshey property is at present a paying mine
 This road when constructed become a feeder for the truck system of roads which the people of Seward through its Chamber of Commerce and City Council has requested be built to open up the rich natural resources nf Ers.s:i Peninsula and the request ff3ia ..; Hirshey for help to secure this road extension up Palmer Creek met the hearty approval of the Executive Committee of the Seward Chamber of Commerce. Every effort will be made by that body to secure the favorable attention of the government officials in charge of road construction on Kena Peninsula.

Prices climb, but so also do the objec- tons increase against paying the high er rate. Taken altogether, the chances for the st0gie are as slim as itself avs the Toledo Blade.
 As virtually ali Cubans can roll cigars so was it once possible for li@ny Americans besides professional cigarmakers to manufacture their own smokes. Hospitable folk of the ural districts thought it the fine thing 10 offer their guests cigars which had 5oen made in the house. The stOgie was the last of it's kind which could fe said to have dn unprofessiOnal Ori- gin, many thousands being rolled by ,0men at their homes in periods of the day when household duties were light. If now the stogie is to disappear. tigarmaking in this country will cease .o have even the slightest of the anna eur touch.
 This vanishing is to be regretted, rot simply because the stogie was d

Mistakes are things anybody can make successfully.

 Yes, and do it easy.

 These days I find myself wondering if 1 am not the fellow who invented them.
 Sometimes fellow takes a miss hat nobody else would take, and aft erWard finds out it was mistake.
 Anybody under twenty never admits that he has made a mistake.
 And he is usually honest about it.
 If anything goes wrong, blame t onto someone else.
 After twenty-five he begins to think of a few he made when he was eleven. By the time he Is forty-five he will forget the mistakes he made in early youth because, in looking back over the trail the little ones of childhood are completely hid by the whOppers ne has made since he was thirty-five. I don't know why people have to make mistakes.
 But they are built that way.

 This encourages me.
 For as I look back 0ver a mistake dotted career believe I have reached ehc roint at which I cannot make any mistakes without repeating.

WILL THE CAPITAL BE MOVED?
(F'rom Valdez Miner)

Down in the First Division there is some comment on the fact that at least two of the candidates for the Territo- rial legislature from this division. have expressed themselves in favor of re- moving the capital from Juneau and will ask the support of the people on this platform at the coming election Naturally Juneau does not desire to remove the capital, and the people of the First division will marshal their forces to combat any such attempt Whether or not the capital is moved depends upon the strength of the op- posing forces and will be an interest ing battle to watch.
 However these comments have one '' :~5 drought out the same old argu-
 :' Is t0 why Juneau should be the

 The truth is that the Third Division has paid the bills for a number of years, and if this is any argument for moving the capital then it should be -noved. But we believe there are other

It was the shopping period, and Miss Smith thought she would "drop in" on Mrs. Jones and ask her if she would assist her in the noble art of present, hunting.
 'Is your mistress in?" she asked the young maid.
 ''Yes, miss" was the prompt reply
 She was shown into the drawing room But an hour passed and no Mrs. Jones appeared. At last the lady got up and called to the maid:
 "Did you tell your mistress I was here?" she asked.
 "Oh, no. miss," replied the girl quickly; "she' hasn't returned from shopping yet
 "Not returned!" exclaimed the as- tonlshed visitor.
 'No, miss. You see the mistress told inc she was always home to you!"
