HOW THE POLITICAL
 POT IS BOILING

The ClOSe Ol LH0 pflHldTy III
 ing period finds two complete tickets for each party in this division. On the republican side there is a contest for every pub
 lie office on the ticket. There are two candidates for Attor- |ney General, two for the senate and thirteen for the House.
 On the Democratic ticket there are no candidates for the Attorney Generals office, but otherwise the ticket is com
 plete. There are two candl-
 dates for the Senate and five for the House. Frank A. Boyle, former Register and Receiver of the Land Office was the only Democrat filing for the Dele
 gateship. Following is the list of those whose names will ary appear on the Republican primary ticket.
 For Delegate-Dan. A. Suther- land.
 For Attorney General w. D. Coppernoll and John Rustgard.
 For Senator-Forrest J. Hunt and J. H. Davies, both of K etchikan.
 For Representatives: (Four to be nominated )-Trevor Davis, Leroy E. Noland, H. R. Shepard, c. J. Skuse, A. J. and V. A. Paine, all of Juneau; Howard Ashley ard Perry M. Hern, of Skag- way; w. D. Grant and A. E. Gurr, of Wrangell; c. B. Ferg- ueon, of Craig; w. L. Paul, of K .tchikan and James Simpson, of Douglas.
 For preference for Governor: C@sh Cole, Emery Valentine, of Juneau, George D. Scho- field, of Seattle.
 The Democratic ticket will slow the following:
 For Delegate: Frank A. Boy le.
 For Senator: w. A. Holz . heimer and N. R. Walker; the former of Juneau, the latter of K etchikan.
 For Representatives: (Four to be nominated) w. w. Cas- ay, J. J. Connors and N. O. Hardy, Juneau; Chris. Christ ansen, of Petersburg. The Jun ecu Empire adds the name of Joe Green, of Hyder to the list of candidates for represe>tt- alive, stating: While no offic- ial notice has been received that the latter has filed, pri- Vate advices received here yesterday said he had done SO in the Hyder branch of the of flee of Clerk of Court"
 The statement is in error with respect to the party in question having filed in Hyder, as no filings for any office have been received locally.
 Filings for party offices are IS follows, according to the ! Empire: For Repub- jean National Committeeman Arthur Frame; for delegate to he Republican National Con- Harry G. Steel; for Democratic National Commit seman, T. J. Donohoe. This 1t least is all that had been an- nounced officially up to the .ime the last mail left the cap- tai.

nounced his candidacy for rep uolican National Committee
 man but his name has not been
 announced among those filing
 for that office.
 Reports from the Fourth Div ision say complete Democrat lc ticket and contests for vir- tGally every place on the Rep IuDlican ticket will feature the April primaries in that district.
 At the close of the filing per iod five Democrats and nine Republicans had filed for Leg islative positions.
 Four Republicans filed 6or Legislative positions in the End. Division but no Democrats. One Democrat aspired to the senatorial toga. The only Re publican aspirant for senatorial honors in that section is lady, Mrs. Lulu J. Welch, wife of Dr. Curtis Welch, a prominent phy- sician.
 Delegate Sutherland filed by telegraph from Washington, being unable to file in time by other means. In connection with the delegates filing, At torney General Rustgard ruled that filing by telegraph is val i'd, although precedent for rejecting filings of that char |acter was established some Iy ears ago.
