BOYLE PLATED OVER OUTLOOK
 IN TERRITORY
Democratic Nominee for Auditor Predicts Sweep
 ing Party Sue ess

Elated over the outlook for suc- cess in the Third and Fourth Di- visions in which he has been campaigning for several weeks, Frank A Boyle, Democratic nom- inee for Territorial Auditor, re- turned here this morning and after a short rest will swing into his final drive which will cover the First Division.
 Clearly, this is a Democratic year. Every indication in all com munities that I have visited, and communications that I have re- ceived from all over Alaska, points to a sweeping Democratic victory, and the vote for Senator Anthony J. Dimond for Delegate to Con- gress will reach landslide propor- tions," declared MT. Boyle today
 Outlook Is Bright
 He visited Cordova, Valdez, Sew ard, Anchorage, Fairbanks and Nenana and many smaller com munities. He spent sometime in each place and, although he did not hold any public meetings, made hundreds of personal contacts with voters. The trend, in keep ing with the political swing na- tionally that seems to make the election of Gov. Roosevelt for President assured, is very largely Democratic. Many Alaskans who have voted the Republican ticket for years, despairing of true lead ership in that direction, have turn ed to our party for relief. The re- suit in the November baTiotina will be the biggest Democratic vote in the history of Alaska" he de- clared
 T Lave received letters from friends all along the Alaska Pen- insula, Y. me, the. Kuskokwim ani Yukon River points, places l was not able to visit, and they were all favorable, depicting the same political situation that found tc exist elsewhere"
 Dimond Strength Astonishing
 The sentiment for Senator Dd- mond, be added, is astonishing even to his closest friends Whf had expected him to get unusually wide support. T am not overstat' | ing the fact when I say that hf will be elected by the biggest ma jority ever given Democrats candidate in Alaska. He is strong not only .n the larger towns, where this wa: expected, but in remote precincts throughout the Territory MT. Boil. asserted. His campaign has ba..i clean, constructive an; appealing. It has struck a rs sponsive chord among voters o sll classes and parties"
 | MT. Boyle was in Fairbank awaiting the arrival of Senate Dimond when the latter wa brought there for medical treat ment and disqualification after a, airplane accident at Iditarod. Al though the injuries were serious only the dnportunities of hi friends prevented the Democrati candidate for Delegate from talk l ing the stump again as soon a

Flaxville Elevator Burns

FIaxville, July L. Fire which
started In the tip of the Winter
Truesdale elevator early last night
and which was not noticed until
about ten o'clock totally DESTROYED
the building and contents.
The town was in great excite
ment and men with buckets and
ladders and hatchets were running
about protecting houses where the
sparks were lighting on the roofs
Women carried wash boilers and
tubs of water from nearby wells
and it seems that everyone was
pressed into service.
Scobey was called on for helm
and the department from that CITY
came as soon as possible bringing
their chemical engine.
1t was feared that the Farm
ers elevator nearby would catch
fire. The coal shed caught fire
and only by persistent efforts was
the fire kept under control and
little damage done.
Carl Gum was employed at the
elevator.
1t appears that an agent of the
Winter Truesdale company visited
the elevator and Mr.. Truesdale
one of the owners was called tt
Bainville where he was attending
to business at the time of the fire
1t is thought that defective wiring
cause the blaze. The elevator anC
sheds were covered by insurance.

head. Erickson was stunned by
the blow and before he could re-
cover sufficiently to renew the
struggle the bandit who had struck
him with the chair left, half drag
In the injured bandit with him.
Nearby neighbors who had heard
the screams of Mrs. Erickson hur-
ried to the house and then phoned
to Plentywood for the sheriff
Sheriff Hans Madsen left immedi-
ately for the scene and upon ar
rival deduced that the thugs were
hiding in the grove across the
road. He phoned for assistance
and about IS men hurried to the
Erickson farm in automobiles from
Plentywood and Antelope. They
turned the car lights on the grove
and beat the bush thoroughly but
the offenders had escaped.
The following morning the sher
ifs force searched the place anC
took up the trail which led wes-
through the grain fields. From
the tracks of the fleeing bandit
it appeared they had been run
ming or walking at a rapid pace
The trail was followed for owe
five miles toward Antelope wher,
it was lost. On the trail wa
found a pair of overalls belonging
to one of the men, then a coat
then another coat and finally tn
masks.
The trail of one of the me-
showed that he was an execellen
walker, taking huge steps an
also that one of the men toe
out very noticeably. APPARENT
one man was larger than the 9th
er since the little fellow evidentl
was having a hard time keepin
up in the flight. Mr.. Erickso
did not recognize the man who al
tackled him even though he tor
off his mask in the the melee i
the house.
The victims of the assault we1
brought to the local hospital whe1
a surgeon dressed the lasceratior
in Erickson's scalp and the follow
ing morning they returned to the
home.
At this time the offenders hav
! not been aprehended though thu
