 Wickersham Lead First Diuisiion

Totals coming into this office point to a victory for the Hon. James Wickersham in all four Divisions of the Territory. Car rving the First Division by a good maj jority, his lead was aug mented by the votes of the
 Divisions to the Westward where he was running better than sev-
 en to five.
 With Knight 900 votes behind Smith it looks as if the West ward man would have but little chance of catching up but he is beginning to cut into Smiths
 lead so that there is a feeling of apprehension +, some quarters that Knight might win out. With Steel under a handicap of 700 he is definitely out of the running so that in November it is not unlikely that when the clouds of battle have blown
 away, the Democrats with a broad smile on their faces will be
 conSoling Gardner for losing in that battle.
 The fight between Breuer and Keller developed into just the dirty kind of sneaky, fight that was expected of Breuer. Seeking publicity with half truths he declared that Paul and Steel approached him and bargained for patronage in his office for Steel and $50 campaign funds. As to this statement one may l judge who speaks the truth. To- day sits in Breuer's office a young woman whose appoint ment was solely to receive SUD- port of certain federal officials.

 The "sluSh fund" so much de- cried ana condemned by tue Empire was a pro rata sha :e Ot the election-absolute cost. In comparison to which attention is called to the trip of Editor Pe- gues of the Empire and Eddie Morrissey of the Chronicle who went to Seattle to secure funds from the Packers for the cam paign. Eddie was said to have been all dolled up in a top silk hat and a gold headed cane pa rading around with the canners at their convention at VancOuv- CT. All costs of campaigns, the publicity has heretofore been carried by the Alaska Native Bro 1herhood. This year the candi- dates who would benefit finan- cially by election agreed it was no more than fair that they pay oroportionate share of the cost. Had Breuer been on the ticket ! he would have paid his share
