WEATHER HOPS ARE STARTED
 AT FAIRBANKS
Forecast Expected to Be of Great Value to People in
 Canada, United States

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15. = A specially equipped airplane was ordered to hop at Fairbanks at 5 o'clock this morning for the first of a series of flights aimed at dis covering cold waves long before they sweep across the United States, Weather Bureau officials announced. The flights, which are authorized under the Bankhead- Jones law, may make both aviation and weather history as the polar air masses which move down across Canada and the United States each winter provide little advance data before reaching the United States.
 Twice daily the flights are made at Fairbanks from September Is to March 15 and are expected to furn- ish information so that the wealth erman can warn the public ir lime to guard against severe weather.
 Charles Harold Gillian, commer- cial pilot. who won the contract, and w. B. DraWbaugh, Meteorolog ist from the Washington Bureau, have been in Alaska some time pre- pairing for the experiment. Daily hops three miles up are considered in the ambitious undertaking.
 Previous records show that Fair banks temperature varied 100 de- grees in eight days between Janu- ary and IA, 1884. It was 34 above on the sixth and slid to 66 below on the 14th that year.

STRANGE ORE {. LURES AUTHOR TO TERRITORY
Rex Bea ch Arrives Here This Morning on Alaska
 for Ten-Day Stay

Only time will tell the import ance of the opening of the Glacier Bay to mining" stated Rex Beach, noted author, Alaska booster and proponent and active cilmpaigner for the bill passed by the last Con- gress opening this section, on his arrival here today.
 T knew that there was ore in the Glacier Bay region and figured that the only way to determine it's worth was to get the place opened to min ing men the author continued. My only fear about it is that. the ore there may be broken up and not of important tonnage"
 MT. Beach also spoke of his plan for aerial exploration and mapping, which was approved recently by the President. He would like to see this scheme and also plan like that of Canada for training prospectors put into effect, believing it would be of immeasurable aid to the Territory.
 Object of Visit
 The object of his visit to Alaska, which will keep him here about 10 days, is to visit Joe Ibach, who has discovered strange deposit of min eral on Lemesurier Island. Accord ing to the author, the deposit as yet has not been identified but is called mineral rubber" by its d.s- coverer. Beach and a number of friends in the States are extremely interested in 1t.
 Rex Beachs latest story a5cut AL aska appeared in the Cosmop 2litan Magazine some months ago and was entitled "Kougarok," the story of the old Alaska dog sweep5t ks in Nome, in which country Beach las mining holdings. A serial, Mod ern Miracle Men" which is run ming in Cosmopolitan now was par tially responsible for the authors trip here, he stated today He made the trip West gathering mater al for the serial and decided that he could come up and look at the Lemesurier Island deposits almost as quickly as he could get letter here.
 After flying from here to Leme- surfer Island and return, MT. Beach will leave for his home in New York

Congress Big Prize in
 Approaching Elections
By BYRON PRICE tChief of Bureau. The Associated Press, Washington

The special importance of the , Congressional elections of 1886 is amply attested by the close atten- ton which is centering upon them from the headquarters of the two major parties
 Most of this solicitude on the part of the national leaders escapes gen. ! eral notice. The activities of the Presidential campaign itself not en- ly are more spectacular in a nation al sense, but they are more readily followed by the public from day to day One big show is easier to watch than many smaller shows, all going at once.
 In it's physical and technical sense, every campaign for Con- gress is a local matter. The ten dency of almost all voters is to be interested in the Congressional elections in their own respective districts, and pay little attention to those in other districts, or to what the sum total of them all may be.
 The party Ieaoers, however, are fully alive to the national aspects Of the case. They do not advertise all that they do about Congression- al campaigns, for they hope to es- cape all suspicion of outside inter ference in any situation which might be considered local.
 This year, especially, these lead CTS not only are on the alert. but they are active, for special reasons. c. o. P. SITUATION PECULIAR
 For the Republicans the situation is peculiar one, without prece- dent in recent years.
 The Republicans cannot attain majority in the Senate next session. no matter what they do. With only one-third of the Senate member ship coming up at a time, the Democrats are sure of a majority even If every Republican Senatorial nominee is elected this Fall.
 That means that if Governor Landon wins, he is certain to find one branch of Congress controlled by the opposition party; and it makes imperative an especially vigorous attempt to return a Re- publican majority in the House.
 But the Democrats also have their problem. The Senate is safe- ly Democratic, but it happens that it is the House which originates the money bills" that are certain to play 50 great a part in legisla- tive policy during the next four years.
 If MT. Roosevelt is elected, how far could he hope to get with his program with the drafting of ap- propriations and revenue measures in the hands of Republicans?
 Such questions are not exactly new, but they are coming home with greater and greater force as election day hears.
