THE ELECTION.
The election is only three weeks off,
and if there is much enthusiasm for any
candidate it is not visible on the surface.
For the long term Calo will probably
get as large a per cent, of the vote here
as he will at Fairbanks, the place that
put him into the race. What effect Mr.
Murane’s candidacy will have on Mr.
Cale’s vote is, of course, a matter of
conjecture. Cale will undoubtedly l>e
weakened at Nome, but he may gain at
other places, for Dick Ryan is hostile to
Murane and Colonel Perkins did not
want him nominated, and party strings
are not strong enough to hold any others
who may have a desire for revenge.
One thing that is against Cale: the i>er
eentage of people in the Tanana not
qualified to vote is very large. All
things considered, however, his chances
appear equally as good as they ever did.
For the short term Governor Swine
ford looks like a winner. It is an ad
vantage to him that he started in the
campaign on his own responsibility and
is not burdened with a nomination in
which the people had no hand, lie was
an inde]>endent candidate l>eforc he was
named as the democratic nominee. He ■
will get a large vote, distributed more
evenly over the whole territory than
that of any other candidate.
Tiik Juneau democratic convention
condemned the present Alaska raad
commission as costly, ilihitory ami
wholly inetlieient. It wouM seem that
the condemnation is at least premature.
The commission lias not had the means
wherewith to demonstrate its efficiency
to any considerable decree so far.
This killing of Judge Kmory in Seattle
by the love-erased youth, Thompson,
is liable tocause the death of the mur
dered man's mother, who had Is-en ill
ami suffered a relajsie on account of the

Dogs and Horses
Used for Food
Horae flesh ia ateailily overhauling
l*>rk aa the favorite meat in Germany.
During the last year the consumption of
pork fell off 10 ja r cent., while the con
sumption of horse flesh has increased 17
]ter cent.
The explanation is that horse flesh is
much cheaper than |s>rk and that the
working classes are growing )sMirer. A
good cut of horse meat costs 8 cents a
p mod, while jmrk sells at 24 cents, hav
ing risen in price 25 per cent, hy reason
of the high tariff levied on American
pork in the interest of the German far
mers.
norxe still, government itutMtin
show a growing demand for <log flesh.
The nuinl>er of dogs killed for fix*! in
Prussia hod year wax against 1,177
in I1<04. The mere fart that there are
many people who have lieen driven to
this dog flesh extremity for food is re
ganled a* serious.
These tigurex represent only the dogx
slaughtered in the Prussian puhliejnlmt
toirx ami do not include the hundred*
killed in the |xxirer |«rt» of Saxony and
Itavaria. It ix extimated that not lean
