JOHNSTON LOSING
|. A. M. ELECTION,
RETURNS SHOW
Check Up to April 21
Gives Anderson Lead

The election in the International
Association of Machinists as reported
by the Anderson group, looks like
Johnston is going to have to do some
tall election cheating to count him
self in Premonition may account for
the Johnston gang prophesying that
Johnston is going to get from $4,000
to 10000 votes while Anderson is due
to get from 10000 to $4,000. And
then again it may not be premonition
but premeditation in figuring that
they will give an take about that
much in the counting.
The Anderson group has issued the
following statement Of the returns
that have come in up to April 81:
Some Of these locals have closed
their polls; others will continue vot-
ing till the end of the month.
(NOTE) An asterisk following the
lodge number indicates that lodge
nominated Johnston. (nn) following
lodge number indicates that lodge
made no nominations.

WEST FRANKFORT, Ill-A very
interesting mass meeting took place
here with Freeman Thompson and
John Watt as speakers. Il was the
intention to hold the meeting at the
band stand in the open air. But the
local branch OF the Harrington ma
chine succeeded in having the elect
ric light of the bandstand cut on.
II the speakers had used it, they could
have had an audience of several thou
sand. So Farringtons agents got that
stopped.
The meeting, therefore, had to be
held at the South Mine Local hall.
The hall was packed to full capacity
and hundreds OF men had To be turn
ed away.
The meeting lasted until 1880
p. m, but not a man left the hall be-
fore the meeting was over. Many
times Thompson, and Watt also, had
to stop speaking on account OF ap-
plause.
Freeman Thompson promised 10 re-.
turn in about two weeks. When he
does, the militant workers here will

than they had tonight. The ball Is

ARE TIMES HARD?

What constitutes hard times? Lack of business or lack of ready cash to carry on that business?
 In tour of the town by a Gate way representative, many merchants complain that times are hard, while others claim to have had the best bus mess in January and February for many years past. Since our arrival in Alaska many years ago, we noticed that the winter months, while dull, are not nearly so bad as the people remaining in the Territory suppose, taking the volume of business as a whole. It is true that many resi- dents go outside thruogh the winter. and those who do generally outfit for the year while there, thus leaving their money where it does the least good. Thousands of dollars are talk en out of each community in this way. Alaska also shuts down most outdoor work through the winter months. ow- ing to deep snows, cold and added ex- pense of operating.
 But times are not nearly so hard here in Alaska as they are outside. ac. cording to returning sourdoughs, AL aska has no bread line and no one is really suffering for the necessities of life. One can live cheap1y through the winter months, and jobs are plen- tiful through the summer.
 Hard times are more are less a state of mind. Expenses are low in the AL askan towns. Rents are cheap. fuel IS cheap, and what business house lacks in trade it makes up in low overhead

THEY WOULDN'T PLAY

Here is one for the doubting Thomases who question the claim of the United States army and navy to the champion craftsmanship of the world. When Washington was snowed-in by the big blizzard lately the news photographers who cover the White House tried to have a little fun with cabinet officers. As Secretary of War Weeks and Sec retary of Navy Wilbur were coming out of a cabinet meeting, the pho- tographers asked them to pose in schoolboy fashion, throwing snow balls at each other.
 Wilbur and Weeks solemnly did agree. The secretaries picked up the right amount of snow, and pat ted out hard icy balls. The pho- tographers got behind their cam eras and prepared the focus The cabinet officers aimed. Fire" bel lowed the photographers. Weeks and Wilbur fired-and hit two cameras square in the lenses.

MIDDLE GLASS GERMANS AIDED BY OUTBREAKS;
 - COLLECTING $50O,OO0

NEW YORK, Mar. 1.-The con version of German army wagons into food trucks for peacetime
 charities literally fuIfills Isaiah's
 prophecy about swords beaten into
 ploughshares and spears into prun- | ing hooks. The American National
 Lutheran Council suggested to the
 German Republic that it's idle artil-
 lery caissons and quartermaster
 trucks could be put to good use transporting food and clothing ship ped from America for the relief of the suffering middle class in that country. Hundreds of these trucks, manned by army waggoners, are now busy in carrying supplies from steamship docks to railroad stations and warehouses, and from ware houses to the Church free tables where impoverished middle class Germany receives it's daily bread.
 Not only are former army vans pressed into blessed service, but ample warehouse storage space, in- cluding new annex to the govern ment customs house at Hamburg. has been put at the disposal of the American Lutherans free of all cost. Free transportation has been provided on all government rail- roads. Others were sent down the line to railway employees to give right of way to all National Luth- eran Council relief shipments.
 The imitation of the mark had robbed retired mechanics, business and professional men, and widows of their lifetime savings, their courage and health, and reduced them to direst want. Millions who had independent incomes are now dependent on the charity of others, Church free tables were devised to which thousands come on personal invitation from local committees. Every dollar contributed by the churches is matched from private German charity.
 For the contribution of this serv- ice the Lutherans of the United States and Canada are now collect ing s500,0O0.

STANDARD OIL COMPANY
 LOOKS FOR GOOD SEASON


 The local staff of the Standard Oil Company are working hard getting things in shape for the coming sea- son, which they expect will be a good one. Several improvements are con- templated at the plant, and trade with the interior will be stimulated Since the installation of the local tanks, the prices of gasoline and oils have drop ped to fraction of their former cost. and the increasing number of auto- mobiles show that citizens are taking advantage of the fact. Prices at in- terior points are less than half what they were, and mining and other in dustries have been greatly stimulat- ed. The policy of the Standard Oil Company is to sell it's products at the lowest margin of profit, and their en- trance in the Seward field was one of the greatest benefits to the surround ing district, that the city has exper- fenced from any industry.

VACCINATION NOT POPULAR

In many parts of the States war is being waged by scientists and others upon the question of whether or not vaccination is worse than smallpox. So many youngsters have been ruined by vaccine virus that parents in many cases refuse to al low their children to be punctured or scraped by physicians at so much per injection. Back fifty years ago, when lot of us attended the little red schoolhouse vaccination was un- heard of, and if a boy were vaccin- ated he showed the scar on his arm for weeks as something to brag about, and even capitalized, the price of examining the huge cicatrice be- ing one agate or taw. The girls were vaccinated also, but their scars were concealed. Nowadays if a girl attempted to conceal her vaccina- ton scar she would have to be vac- cinated behind the ears or on top of her head.
 There is a new serum now for practically every disease During the war the boys were lined up and punched as full of holes as a col ander. Many of them could eat nothing but oatmeal they leaked so badly. These things run in cycles. Ten years ago a scholar could not learn his three R's unless he was vaccinated. Today people are be- coming more tolerant.

ALASKA RADIO

ARMY SIGNAL Corps officers hope some day to build a gigantic radio station in the icy wastes of North Alaska to communicate directly with Europe via the North Pole. The frigid polar air was found to be a superlative medium for carrying ra- dio waves and by linking up the Western United States with such a radio station through cables, over land wires, or radios, fast transmits sion of messages to Europe could be effected.
 Arctic phenomena, including the aurora borealis, do not appear to interfere in the slightest with radio communication. Though mu c h blame for static has been placed on the aurora, it is believed to ex- ercise no evil effect on wireless transmission.
 Signal Corps men stationed at tiny Alaska posts to afford them radio communication with the Outside world frequently enjoy concerts from European broadcasting sta- tions, notably Berlin, when com pletely out of touch with American stations.
 This fact is what first gave the officers the idea of trans-polar com- mercial communications, which some day may be a fact
