TO PROMOTE NEW ORDER
WITH COMMENDABLE OBJECT
The wave of temperance reform which
is overrunning the country, resulting in pro
hibitum in some state-:, closed tmvns and
! r 1 option in others, and a general discred
iting of John Barleycorn and his cohorts in
all walks of life, has struck the Iditarod dis
trict, and has taken the unique form of a
proportion to form a secret organization,
whose purposes, however, have not yet been
fuily outlined to the general public. Com
rade E. M Stanton and ’Gene Ellis are the
leading spirits in the movement, and the
following notice has been is.-ued:
“NOTICE.
‘ All true and worthy Camels who desire
to form a Mother Caravanserai in order that
our deeds and those of our fellow spirits,
pickled and unpickled, may be handed down
truthfully and most properly to the genera
tions of Camels who hereafter may chew
the last straw, and fellow in our enlightened
paths, are urgently requested to be at Finne
gan’s soda water fountain at 12 midnight.

: Election day in Iditarod passed off with
i out incident worthy of note, other than
: the interest displayed in the contest by the
| la.’ics of the city. The weather was ideal,
i and at intervals during the day the ladies
were seen wending their way to the fire
ha'l. where the polls were located, singly,
in twos and threes, until the close of voting
! at 7 o’clock in the evening showed that
thirty five of the fair sex had taken ad
: vantage of their newly-conferred privilege
' and cast a ballot in the territorial election.
Perhaps this was due in a measure to an
| article appearing in The Pioneer of last
1 week, in which the validity of the equal
! suffrage law was questioned, and perhaps
it was a desire on the part of the ladies
: to refute the oft-made statement that they
rid not desire the franchise. At any rate
they made a good showing, and it is fair
tn say that a larger percentage of women
voters exercised their suffrage than of men.
The crude system of voting in effect was
i puzzler tu many, men and women alike,
and the judges were kept busy explaining
what was necessary in ord°r to cast a
vote that should express the : -eference of
;he citizen. But it is worthy of note that
not a single ballot was thrown out by
1 the vdges on account of being marked im
i properly. It is true that many of the bal
: lots were marked in such manner that but
! a small proportion of the candidates were
voted for, but it quite likely vhat as many
; men as women were guilty of this lapse.
' Altogether 108 votes were cast in the
j city proper, and 7 in Valley precinct, lo
1 rated across llie river from the city. Hat
: cast 120 votes, of which a large proportion
! were those of w; men. and Ih.-covery pre
! einct cast 64 votes. Dikcman has not yet
i been heard from, and it may be several days
• before the vote from that precinct is re
! ported.
Interest tenters en *J2:egdie
The chief interest centered cn the vote
, fci* dth-Tite to congress. Janie? Wicker
sham, the ineun.beni am! candidate to suc
i : himself, ha; many friend.-; in this dis
trict, and h; -is si others admire his ability
end a per v :i, - - WS.il • it we ■ n< .
th ' . ht possible i > defeat him. an clement
of speculation was thrown into the ( ute ’
by the strenuous effort mafic to draw party
lines in the contest, and to rally the Demo
! i rats to the support of Mr. Bunnell. On
the esc of the election teleprams were re
reived by various citizens ghing the text
of a teh pram said to have been received by
Mr. Bunnell from President Wilson, pur
porting to indorse the candidacy- of that
gentleman. Speculation was rife as to the
effect of this effort. The returns show that
the move failed dismally of achieving the
desired effect, Mr. Bunnell receiving but
eight votes in the city, one more than were ]
cast for the Socialist candidate, against 87 j
for Mr. Wickersham.
The following telegram was given wide '
circulation on Saturday night and Sunday:
“Valdez, Oct. 31.
“Charles E. Bunnell, the regular Demo
cratic nominee for congress, received the
following message this evening from Presi
dent Wilson: ‘White House, Washington,
I). C., Oct. 30. May I not upon the eve of
election send you my greetings and express
my earnest hope that you will be sent to
my support by the people of your terri
tory? (Signed) Woodrow Wilson/
“VALDEZ DAILY PROSPECTOR.”
Evidently the voters regarded this as part
of a perfunctory duty imposed upon Presi
dent Wilson by his obligation to his party,
and was no doubt a replica of hundreds
rent to Democratic congressional nominees,
whose “support.” or vote, was desired by
the President.
That the telegram was given wide circu
lation throughout the territory was shown
by the following telegram received by The
Pioneer:
‘■.Juneau, Oct. 31. j
“Pioneer, Iditarod, Alaska:
Z. R. Cheney. Democratic national com
mitteeman. received telegram from Thomas
J. Pence, secretary Democratic congressional
committee, saying: ‘President has wired
Bunnell telegram indorsing him/
“EMPIRE.”

On Monday 1’ne following telegram wa
received, and was reassuring to the friends
of Delegate Wickersham in this vicinity:
“Fairbanks, Nov. 2.

Gowan and Griffin on account of connection

“NEWS MINER.”
Another telegram sent out by the Demo !
cratic politicians, prepaid, was its follows:!

CLERK IN LAND OFFICE
REVIEWED OWN DECISION
_
The fallowing unique story illustrating
conditions formerly prevailing in the gen
I oral land office, which Secretary Lane has
done so much to abolish, is told by a
| correspondent of the Seattle Post-Intelli
: gencer:
j It will Surprise the general public to
l know that there are many inst ances where
r.ne civil service subordinate of the land
‘ office has written the decision of the of
i ficers of a local land office in a contest case.
! has then moved up to the general land
| office and written the decision on appeal of
| the case, and then, moving across the
; street, has written the decision of the sec
retary of the interior on the final appeal.
Here is one concrete instance out of
many, and names can be given if necessary,
though, for obvious reasons, I would prefer
not to give them, my information coming
from an attorney practicing before the de
partment :
An American citizen of sturdy, stubborn
stock, filed on a certain piece of land in
Los Angeles county, California. Suddenly it
appreciated in value. A contest, based on
frivolous grounds, was started while his
application was pending.
It was at a time when the local land
office was flooded with work. A law clerk
had been sent by the general land office
to help out the local officers in writing
the decisions. This clerk examined the
case and wrote a decision finding against
the original claimant.
This claimant was angry and expressed
himself freely in and out of the land of
fice. He appealed to the commissioner of
the general land office. The clerk was
called home. In the course of business this
appeal came to his desk for decision. He
wrote learnedly, upholding, of course, his
previous finding, and the commissioner of
the general land office signed the decision.
From this the claimant appealed to the
secretary of the interior. The law office
in the secretary’s office was piled up with
work and sent to the land office for help.
This particular clerk was assigned to go
: over. One of the first cases he picked up
j was this case from Los Angeles. He must
j have smiled at his old friend.
It was not difficult to write a third
ruling in quite different language supporting
Ixrth earlier decisions. Why shouldn't he
write it? No one in the department knew
more about if than he.
By this time the claimant was broke.
But he still had courage and determina
tion. Stowing away on a lumber vessel, he J
made his way to the Isthmus of Panama, j
walked across the isthmus, stowed away on |
another vessel bound north, landed at Bal- j
i timore, walked to Washington and pre- |
Isented himself at the office of a lawyer,
and told him his story.
Sounds like a romance, doesn’t it? But
it is absolutely true.
The lawyer investigated the case and j
learned the facts. He went to the first j
j assistant secretary of the interior, the offi !
jeer who had signed for ftie secretary the
! final decision in the case, and told him
I what he had learned. The first assistant
secretary was astounded and sent for the
clerk.
“Why,” asked the first assistant secre
tary, “did you write that decision the way
you did ”
“Oh, that fellow has given us a lot of
trouble. He is cantankerous. He made an
awful fuss out in Los Angeles, and we had
to have him arrested. He is a bad man.” i
“But what about the facts in the case? j
i Isn’t he entitled to the land?”
“I suppose so; perhaps he’s a little more
‘entitled to it than the other fellow, but he
makes so much trouble—”
“That will do,” said the first assistant sec j
! retary. “Reopen the case and write a rul
ing: based on the facts.”
The claimant got his land finally, but
| what would have happened if he had not
been so persistent? What is daily happen
jing to the claimants who are not so insist
! ent upon their rights.

TRAGEDIES OF PRIBILOFS
A FASCINATING STORY
The following is from a report of a lecture
by Professor Trevor Kincaid of the Uni
versity of Washington, written by Jack
Bcchdolt in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer: '
The fur seal, it seems, is not a true seal,
lie is kin to the bear family.
The true seal has no ears, but the fur
seal and his big cousin, the sea lion, have 1
ears like a bear or dog. He is the lineal de- ;
scendant of a bear which has learned to ,
swim.
The fur see! spends his winters in aristo
cratic ease around Honolulu, enjoying the 1
warm waters of the southern oceans. In
the spring the call of the North gets into ;
his blood and a law, mysterious as that
v. hich makn.' the tides to How and the salmon
to turn their noses toward the rivers of
their birth, starts the fur seal northward
t > the Pribilof and Commander islands,
which lie, f> g enshrouded, in the Bering
sea. I
hirst ;Do bulls, kuigs oi the herd.
These baUl'‘scarred leaders pick out a
home amongst the rocks, and having estab
lished themselves in cozy apartments by
right of conquest, settle down to await the
coming of their consorts.
The females arrive next. The year that
Professor Kincaid spent on the Pribilofs
as assistant commissioner of the fur seal
comini->i< ;» headed by Dr. David Starr |
Jordan, there were 10,000 bulls and 130,000
females.
The -eal is a polygamous brute, and he
gathers from ten to forty wives about him.
are'ruing to his strength in battle and
the chances of fortune.
On the outskirts of this community \
gather the bachelors, young bucks who j
have not yet essayed to break into seal !
.-(•ciety. and the females too young to
undertake family cares.
The first duty of each mature female on
reaching hind is to bring into the world
a pup.
This seal pup, barring human babies, is
just about the prettiest, liveliest, fattest,
most playful little brat of all the animals
God put upon the earth.
He weighs about ten pounds at birth.
His coat is a rich, soft black, lik*- the
finest black velvet. His great brown eyes
are human in their beauty.
The pups gather in groups, huddling to
gether like dog pups and playing like kit
tens, yapping and leaping and shaking their
fat little sides with seal laughter.
When the pup is hungry he seeks his
own mother, never another mother, and
takes his refreshment as God designed
babies to do.
The pup never feeds at any breast than
his own mother’s.
Keep that fact in mind.
A great many years ago women began to
crave seal.-kin coats. Women’s vanity drove
the Russian explorers to hunt new sealing
grounds, and in this way the Pribiiofs
were discovered behind the mist curtains
which hung over Bering sea.
A Russian company first exploited the
seal islands. Two American companies suc
ceeded, and now the islands are closed to
sealing.
vwme me Killing ui seals was runnneu
to the land. Professor Kincaid believes, the
harm done the herds was slight. But the
commercial conditions, the lease of the
privilege to one company, led to the deep
sea, or pelagic, sealing.
Once a week the mother seal swims out
to sea for food.
OlT shore, some fine morning, lies a
schooner surrounded by small boats, and
in each small boat are several skilled gun
ners or harpooners.
The glossy head of the mother seal ap
pears a moment above the surface. There
is a crack, crack of riiies and a swish
of harpoons.
A stain of red spreads over the water
and the mother sinks. Perhaps the boats
reach her in time to gain a pelt; perhaps
they don't.
But back on the beach there frolics a
roly-poly little pup, yapping for its break
fast.
In course of time the inevitable happens.
The pup yaps its last.
One of Professor Kincaid’s lantern slides
showed a group of seal pups at play.
The other was a grewsome scene—a beach
black with dark little bodies, each the price
of a pelt that went to make a lady’s coat.
Since Japan has joined the international
cling treaty pelagic sealing is becoming
a thing of the past. The government still
takes a few pelts on the Pri'oilofs, killing
the males from 3 to 5 years old.
The slaughter makes little difference in
the herd. For, by the scheme of things,
a certain number of superiluous males are
fated to lay down their lives in battle.
The announcement of this news was the
most cheerful part of Professor Kincaid’s
lecture.
1 wonder if the yapping little ghosts of
the orphans whose lives have been sacri
ficed to make up many a sealskin coat ever
pursue the proud wearer.
When you come in from the creeks don’t
forget to stop at the Crosby and try the
Electric Vibration for lame backs and kid
ney trouble.

Iditarod Camp No. 27, Arctic Brother- j
hood, held its regular weekly meeting last ;
Monday night. The installation of the re
cently-elected officers had been scheduled ;
fur that time, but by agreement it was
postponed until next Monday, November 9. j
:•<> mat arrangements could be made for ]
a social in connection with the event.
It was decided that after the installation j
ceremonies the lodge would hold open house,
and the camp extends a cordial invitation to
the public, and especially the ladies, to be
prevent at 9 :3U on that • vening.
It is the intention of the committee to
provide a program of music, dancing, etc.,
and a “sourdough lunch” will be served.
Admission is free to everybody, whether
members of the A. B. or not. and it is
hoped that a large crowd will be prevent to ,
enjoy the camp’s hospitality.
SEASON’S OPENING DANCE
WAS A GRAND SUCCESS
The dance given by the Arctic Brother
hood last Saturday night, which was -in
tended as the opening event of the winter’s
social program, called by that versatile ad
writer, Percy Charles, the “freeze-up”
dance, was a most enjoyable affair, and was
ijuite well attended. The music was Pu
nished by the Iditarod String Orchestra, un
der the direction of Mrs. Charles, the floor
was in splendid condition, and everyone ap
peered to have a good time.
The arrangements made by the commit
tee for the comfort and enjoyment of the
dancers were greatly appreciated, and the
committee was highly complimented on its
efforts.
The next dance to be given by the Broth
erhood will be on Thanksgiving night, and
arrangements are being made on a grand
; ! f> r that occasion. The same commit -
:e- will have charge of the arrangements,
and a big time is expected.
