CITIZENS WILL BE DEPRIVED OF VOTE
The last word received here as to a prospective
term of court was to the effect that Judge E. Coke Hill
might return from Juneau the first week in December.
Vve now are informed by wire yesterday from Valdez
that a term of court is to be held on two week’s notice at
Valdez commencing on October 30.
On November 6 an election will be held. It is estimat
ed some 125 to 150 voters will be compelled to attend
court at Valdez and thus this division will, on election
day, have the spectacle of quite a number of its citizens
deprived of a vote. Had the vacancy in the First division
been filled, or if there was any certainty as to when or
where terms of court would be held in the Third divisio,
It is possible electors could remain at home on election
day and express their choice for officials.
V e do not know whether this situation is a result of
control from Washington or otherwise. We think after
dl this delay and almost weekly uncertainty as to when
^ have a court it could very easily have been
a net deprive a citizen of his vote.

THOUGHT EXPRESSED HEART
ATTACK CAUSE ACCIDENT
ROAD GOOD SHAPE
COLFAX, Wash., Oct., 17, (JP)—
State Senator William Kirkman
of Walla Walla was killed and
several members of his family in
jured yesterday when his automo
bile was wrecked on the State high
way near here.
Mrs. Isabel Kirkman, the Sen
ator’s mother, was reported slight
ly injured and suffering from
shock; Leslie Kirkman, brother of
the Senator, was badly shaken
and is reported to be in a dazed
condition and unable to explain
| the accident; Mr. and Mrs. Allen
: Reynolds, the latter a sister of
I the Senator, were shocked and
Mrs. Reynolds is believed to be
severely cut about the head and
eyes. Mr. Reynolds injuries are
not as serious.
The accident, seemingly, is in
explainable as the road at the
point where it occurred, was good.
The party were enroute to Spokane
and went over an embankment,
turned over and crushed the Sen
ator who was a hold-over Sena
tor and widely known. He was a
batchelor. It is believed he might
have suffered a heart attack and
lost control of the car.
TO HOLD MEETING
The Seward Woman’s Club will
hold a meeting tomorrow afternoon
at 2 o'clock at the home of Mrs.
Pete Anderson.
