SURVEY IN INTERIOR INDICATES
OVER 300 MARQUAM
MAJORITY
FAIRBANKS, Nov. 1. (£*)—A care
ful survey of Fairbanks, shows Mar
quam will carry the town by more
than 300. Over $5,000 has been bet
on the general result of the election.
In one lump a $5,000 bet was offered
today on Marquam but so far there
have been no takers. The 'white
people are indignant over the Wick
ersham-Sutherland statement naming
Paul the crown prince to succeed Su
therland. It is expected Fairbanks
will cast the largest vote ever.
Let’s go to the Liberty!
FOR SAIF
Will sell the timber and land or
the timber alone on my homestead of
320 acres located three miles out of
Seward. There is approximately three
million feet of timber on the land of
which from 1200 to 1400, one hundred
foot piling, can be obtained; also
probably about 300,000 feet of mer
chantable hemlock. It is one of the
choice homesteads of this district, tf
