Delegate Asks Extension of
 Poor Convicts Law to Alaska

The Poor Convicts' law" will be extended to Alaska if a bill recently introduced by Delegate Dimond is approved.
 At present those who are fined for violation of law must serve out the fines at a speci- fled daily rate if they are un- able to pay, the result being in many cases that men are im- prisoned for months for non. payment. In continental Unit ed States, where sentence and fine has been imposed, the pris- oner can, after serving 30 days beyond the expiration of his sentence, declare himself a pauper and if he can prove this at a hearing he is released forthwith. Delegate Dimond's bill would have that section of the law apply to Alaska.

Moose Hold Memorial Services

Impressive memorial services in honor of deceased members of the lodge were held Sunday evening by Portland Canal Lodge, Loyal Order of Moose, and were attended by a large gathering from both sides of the international boundary line.
 Ritualistic ceremonies and an interesting address by Rev. Frank Bushfield comb i d with vocal selections by the Stewart Anglican Church choir and individuals, and read ings by Rev. Father P. l.. Wholey, formed the highligh::s of a program of unusual beauty and interest.
 Individual vocal solos, My TASK ana The Holy Clty, were rendered in pleasing and effective manner by Jas. Mor- rice of Stewart and Leonard R. Traversy of Hyder.
 Choosing as his topic, What is Life?" Rev. Frank Bushfield discussed the question from an unusual and highly interesting viewpoint and also paid marked tribute to the ideals of the Moose order. Piano ac- compartments were contribut- ed by Mrs. E. D. Haddon of Hyder and Mrs. H. Gibson of Stewart.

ELECTION RESULTS
 STILL UNDECIDED

With only one precinct unre- ported, returns from the recent primary election indicate with almost certain assurance the nomination of F. J. Baronovich, A. H. Zeigler, of Ketchikan, Joe Green, of Hyder, and A.. P. Walker, of Craig as the First Division Democratic leg islature candidates, and of Harry G. Mccain, of Ketchi- kan, Louis F. Paul, of Wrang- ell, and Frank Foster and H. R. Shepard, both of Juneau, as the Republican candidates. The unreported precinct is Lor.ng, which returned 30 votes at the last general election in 1882.
 At the time of the last report, Green was still leading Henry Messerschmidt of Juneau by a small margin of votes and was apparently due to land in fourth position.
 In the Republican division Shepard and Foster were tied for third place and Walter B. King was a few votes behind.
 Allen Shattuck of Juneau is certain of the Democratic nom- ination for Senator.
 Oscar G. Olson of Cordoya was more than 400 votes ahead of Martin Harrais for Terri torial treasurer with only a third of Territorial precincts still missing and his nomination is considered certain.
 Totals of the divisional vote will be given when received.

cated that the remainder of the group share the determina- ton of Senator Borah to contin- ue the battle for remonetiza- tion in spite of the defections.
 Radio broadcaIsts Thursday evening announced that Senat- or King of Utah had issued an appeal for national support of the groups efforts. Declaring that "now is the time for re- monetization of silver" the Utah solon urged supporters of the remonetization cause, to throw their weight into the scale and intimated that the struggle to break down admin istration opposition may be continued in the forthcoming election campaign if present efforts fail.
 A second conference held Friday apparently failed to in- duce any change in the presi- dential attitude, as it was an- nounced later that MT. Roose- welt refused to consider any form of mandatory silver legis- lation during the present ses- sion of Congress.
 Senator King also Issued a statement that progress was being made in drafting a bill embodying the Presidents compromise proposals, as indi- cated above.

The bill postponing annual assessment work on mining claims was finally ratified by Congress this week, according to- telegraphic advices from the Cantu Mining Company re- ceived by E. D. Haddon. The act grants exemption for the year ending July 4, 1884.
 Full details of the provisions have not yet. been received but the enactment is understood to grant assessment exemption only to claim holders who paid no income tax for the year 1883, and to exempt only six claims in the case of indivi- duals and twelve wherein part nerships and corporations are owners.
 It is also understood that mo- tices of intention to hold ex- empted properties must be filed for record on or before noon July l.

ROOSEVELT OFFERS FURTHER COMPROMISE
 ON SILVER ISS U E


 monetization, President Roose- welt offered further concessions to Congressional silver leaders following a White House con- ference Tuesday, according to radio news reports.
 The Presidents offer was said to include a proposal to nationalize silver by taking ever the available domestic supply on the basis of 50 cents per ounce, in addition to pur- chasing foreign silver at the same figure, and to increase silver currency backing to 25 per cent. MT. Roosevelt made it clear, however, that action under the proposed program must be discretionary with the executive rather than manda- tory.
 The latter provision, although diametrically opposed to the declared intention of silver ad- vocates to insist upon enact ment of mandatory legislation, was apparently acceptable to many of the Senate conferees, but was flatly rejected by SeE- ator William E. Borah, who was said to have left the con- ference openly declaring his in- tent.on to continue the fight for better terms for silver.
 Senator Elmer Thomas of Oklahoma, who drew the cur rency expansion amendment enacted at the special session a year ago, was one of the number acquiescing in the presidential program and was delegated to draft a bill en- bodying MT. Roosevelt's pro- pc'Sals.
 Reports indicate that the Presidents concessions were by no means inspired by any in- clination to broaden the sphere of silver. On the contrary, they were said to have been forced by a surprise maneuver by the silver bloc in attaching to the Glass bill, providing for directing loans to industry, an amendment embodying the main features of the Dies bill. The effect of this action would be to bring the silver legislation to a vote in the Senate.
 To avoid this unwelcome con- tingency, the President is said to have hastily agreed to fur ther discussion of the silver issue.
 What the final outcome of the new situation will be is con- jectural, as the presidential proposals must run the gaunt- let in both the Senate and House.
 Although the Presidents compromise proposals appear ito have won over a portion of the so-called silver bloc, re- ports received Thursday indi-
