CONVENTION IS
 CLOSED FRIDAY
 BY DEMOCRATS
Was Generally Harmonious Pledges Abolition of
 All Fish Traps

After a three-day session, mark ed for the most part by complete harmony on all questions, the Democratic Divisional Convention adjourned sine die late Friday and out of town delegations left for their homes in the southern end of the Division today. Sev- eral additional blanks and a few resolutions were adopted in yes terdays session.
 A resolution designed to disrupt the present Divisional organiza- ton was defeated by two to one vote. It declared that no party officer could accept public office and retain his official position in the organization.
 Favors Silver RemonitizatiOn
 A resolution offered by E. A. Andrews, Chairman of the Doug las delegation, favoring remoniti- zation of silver, was adopted unan- imously as part of the platform
 Oother blanks adopted in addi- tion to those previously approved in Thursdays session included: a pledge to abolish fish traps; the purchase or construction of a home for aged pioneer women: urging adoption of such laws that will, as far as possible, insure the employment Of Alaskan labor in the fisheries, canning and other industries, and insure the payment of an adequate wage for such la bor, and the payment of all wa ges to cannery and other em- ployees in the Territory, while they are employed in the Terri tory"
 This plank is a substitute for the MIRA plank incorporated in the original draft of the platform as it was reported to the conven- ton Thursday. That plank was not adopted as the convention de- cided it was not proper to take any step that might results in the injection of partisan politics into the MIRA code system in AL aska.
 Opposes Mining Modification
 Without a dissenting vote, the convention adopted a plank pre- sented by John Roman on modi- fication of the placer mining law relative to the method of stalking claims. It declared: "We op- pose the passage of any law hay ing for it's purpose the restora- tion of the 160 acre association placer claim, or the unlimited power of attorney"
 Ousting of Republican holdovers in Federal and other offices was demanded in a resolution adopted by a unanimous vote. It declared:
 We favor the elimination of all Republican holdover officials and other subordinates, at as early a date as it consistent with the efficient administration of their offices.e'
 No Nominations Made
 The convention adjourned with out making any nominations for any offices, and without having requested any candidates to file their declarations. However, from discussions regarding the ticket for the coming primary election it seemed certain that there would be several candidates for the Territorial Legislature, enough, in fact, to insure competition for all places in the Division ticket.
 The Conventions endorsement of Delegate Dimond and his leg islative program was unqualified and the sentiment was unanimous that he was entitled to renom- ination and reelection. It unre- servedly pledged it's support to the program of President Roosevelt and praised the administration of Gov. John w. Troy
