McCutcheon, of Anchorage, the only Demo running for office in this district, arrived on the SS Northwestern Saturday. He seeks election to the legislature
 McCutcheon says that things are looking good for the Democrats. We had several rousing meetings and, speaking for GrigsbY, N think his strength is growing every day. I feel also that my chances are good I expect good support from my home town and A think | will poll a good vote to the south. AIS for Seward, altho I know you folks will rally pretty strong for your very good man Cal BrOsius, M feel that I have enough Democratic friends in Seward to make a good show ing even here I have been talking home rule, and good roads and workmen's compensation till I'm black in the face, and I'm still talking about them whether I'm ell ected or not Anyway, I'm convinc- ed Democratic strength is gaining and I'm sure that after Nov. my opponents will know they have been in race.

mer defeated in five starts already
and the latter victorious in but one
of five attempts, are scheduled to
face Stretch Murphy and his team
mates in a pair Of games each. Ohio
is the other weak foe.
Wolverines Improve
The other two games probably
will give the Old Gold and Black
quintet some trouble, Northwestern
and Michigan, and there is pos
sibility that Michigan, whom the
Lambertmen defeated at Lafayette
in their first conference tilt by
staging a spectacular last half rally
may provide an upset. The Wolver-
ines have improved and now loom
as one of the strongest quintets of
the nine.
Wisconsin appears as the Boiler
makers chief threat. With four
victories and one defeat Doc Mean
wells midget cagers now rank in
second place, and the lone defeat
probably will be their last one.
Seven More for /. u.
Northwestern, Indiana and Mich
igan should wage a real battle for
the next positions. Indiana has lost
two and won two, and has seven
games to play, including two each
with Ohio and Minnesota, and one
with Chicago, Michigan and Wis
consin at Wisconsin. The Hoosiers
may avenge their defeat by the
wolverines when the Maize and
Blue come to Bloomington, but
there Is little probability of up
setting Wisconsin at Madison. The
game with Northwestern at Evan
ston is not definite, but if arranged
may cause more trouble for the
Deanmen.
In addition to Indiana and Pur-
due, Michigan will play Chicago and
Illinois, while Northwestern has
games with Illinois 90, wisconsin,
Minnesota, Purdue, Indiana and
Chicago.
AS in past seasons there probably
will be upsets, involving Chicago,
Ohio and Minnesota, but this trio
probably will fight to stay out of
the cellar.
If Purdue goes through an I'M
defeated Conference season, which
is highly probable providing they
check Michigan. it will be the first
time a Conference net crown has
been won by an unbeaten team in
several years.

Babes Birthday Finds Him

Over Baseball.

ST. PETERSBURG. Fla, Feb. +
Babe Ruth, back from Miami and
Palm Beach, today celebrated his
thirty sixth birthday, playing golf
and awaiting the opening of the
1880 baseball season, during which
he is slated to receive the largest
salary ever paid a pro athlete. Jurt
at present he's listed as a holdout.
Seventeen of Ruths thirty-siX
years have been spent in the ma
tional pastime, and he admitted to-
Cay that his love for the game is
greater than ever. He was born in
Baltimore Feb. Z, 1894
You might think I'd be tired of
it." said Ruth between practice
swings with a mashie, his squinted
eyes envisioning a distant fence and
a disappearing ball. But III admit
I'd rather go up there and take a
cut at one and slap it over the fence
than eat
1T takes the same swing as bat
ting Ruth said, talking his fond
ness for golf. The only difference
is you don't run when you hit
golf ball. Not unless you hit some
body with it
IF they don't quit using up all
the acreage for buildings and park
ing spaces, there's not going to be
any more baseball" Ruth predicted
"A husky kid around the city now
hasn't got any place to let Oft
steam.
But I guess baseball's the favor
tie American sport and always will
be. It's healthy exercise and 1t
keeps the kids clean minded and
out of trouble"
