The Juneau Business m n have organized a retail aSSocia- tion which will wage systematic opposition to mail order business and they will invoke municipal ordinance against peddlers The ordinance fixes a system Cf graduating license fees for non- resident house to house solicit ors.

DEMOCRATS POLL LARGEST ALASKA VOTE SINCE 1918

Polling 1929 votes in the April 26 primary election to 4,173 for the Republicans, reports from all but thirty five of the territorial precincts revealed that the De- mocratic party received more votes than the Republicans in an Alaska election for the first time since 1918.
 The thirty-f1ve precincts, five from the second division, twelve from the third and eighteen from the fourth, are in far scat tered sections of the territory and political observers sa d would report about 1,200 votes but would change the results of the election in but one instance.
 The Democrats boiled their highest vote in the three-corner- cd race for delegate to congress, won by A. J. Dimond of Valdez. George Grigsby, a former dele gate, was 847 votes behind Di- mond and A. H. ziegler, also of ketchikan, followed Grigsby by 160 votes.
 Dimond will oppose Delegate James Wickersham, who was unopposed for renomination by the Republicans, in the Novem- Der general elections.

 The Democrats named John w. Troy and W.,B. Kirk, Juneau: Harry Morton and Arthur A. shonbeck, Anchorage, an d Thomas A.

Col Bennett Champ Clark, victor in
the Missouri Democratic senatorial

with his career as the son of the late
Speaker Champ Clark-once a name to
conJure with in party councils, and a
name that very nearly appeared on
presidential ballots in 1912.

the organizers and first national COM
mander of the American Legion. Re-
turning to suburban st. Louis to make

three-cornered battle with Charles M
Hay, veteran dry, and Charles M

date, Clark drove about the State in a
"bandwagon" equipped with miCrOphone
and loudspeaker.
He was aided in his speaking cam
paign by his sister, Mrs. Genevieve
Clark Thompson. wife Of New Orleans
newspaper publisher.
Clark also had the support of Sena-
tor Harry B. Hawes, but the tremendous
strength of T. ]. Pendergast, Kansas

Howell. The latter led in early returns,
which included numerous precincts al

gift tax, higher levieS in the upper
brackets Of income and inheritance
