DID STARS PREDICT
EUROPEAN CONFLICT
Not everybody believes that the
stars reveal coming events to those
who claim to be able to read them.
But it is a well known fact that as
rology has its adherents today, just
is it had thousands of years ago, and
many persons peruse carefully the
'.horoscopes” published by a well
inown newspaper syndicate. A reader
)f the Daily Times calls our attention
oa rather interestin item written by
heso modern soothsayers, published
>n April 14, 1914, In It the credulous
nay find an intimation of the bloody
;vents that commenced in Europe
with the outbread of hostilities be
ween Austria and Servia. The Item
s as follows:
“Mercury is in a place strongly evil,
while Jupiter and Uranus are both In
idverse aspect. Ambassadors, en
voys, and all who mediate between nn
ions are subject to an unlucky rule
while this configuration prevails. The
sign is particularly sinster for Ger
many, Austria, Italy and Turkey, and
he United States has reason to be
Jautions, the seers declare.”

Who in to he the next Judge of the
Fourth judicial division of Alask?
That question has been asked many
times during the past month, and par
ticularly during the past few days.
As congress is now In session, there
is much speculation ns to whether or
not the President has selected a man
•r the place, nnd whether or not
any name will be sent to the senate
during the first few days of the ses
sion.
Owing to the fact that there are
many cases now pending before the
district court, many criminal matters
to he Investigated by the grand Jury,
and a number of defendants in jail
unable to give ball, with all of which
'he department is aware, It Is thought
in official circles In Fairbanks that
it will be but a few days before a
Judge Is named.
Another question heard In the Tan
ana valley in many places Is: "Will
the next Judge be a Fairbanksan?"
1 There are three candidates in the
field from there, and each of these
has a number of Fairbanks support
ers, as well as some outside people
working for him.
Commissioner H. K. Dillon has been
working for the place ever since it
ecame known that Judge Fuller was
) resign. Many people in Fairbanks
tre working for him, but if he has
any outside influence it is not gener
ally known. He has been a lawyer
or many years, and on account of
his experience as commissioner, his
riends claim that he would fill the
place admirably.
Luther C. Hess, vice-president of
the First National bank, and an Alas
kan of long residence, also ‘s a can
didate. He, like Mr. Dillon, has a t
ubstanti&l Fairbanks following, and f
is said to have some outsiders work- 11
ng for him. Who the latter people v
are is not generally known. At one f
time Mr. Hess was assistant United 4
States Attorney for the Fourth divis- d
ion.
G. Ellis Gardner, assistant tinited 1
States attorney, is the third Fairbanks '
candidate. He has not been a resi- (
dent of the north so long as the other c
two candidates have, but since his ar- *
rival at Fairbanks last spring he has 1
gained some local support for the
office. His chief support, it is un
derstood, comes from North Carolina, f
' here he practiced law before going *
n
to Fairbanks. It is said that he has
substantial congressional support from
that state.
Charles E. Bunnell, the democratic
candidate for delegate to congress at
the recent election, is spoken of as
i candidate for the pudgship. When
he was at Fairbanks before the elec
■ ---- — 1 "T
on. he said that he was not working
ir that place, but as he was defeated, 1
nd as a number of his friends are i
orking for his appointment, it is :
OBsible that he lias changed his at- .
Itude. Whether or not he is a cnn
idate is not definitely known there.
Last Spring, Frank Goodbody, a
romlnent Democrat of Tombstone,
.rizona, wns mentioned as a candi
ate for the position. Advices re
eived at Fairbanks are to the effect
hat he is still after the place, and
hat he has a following from his own
tnte working for him.
At least one other man, an East
mer, whose name cannot be learned,
j said to be working for the place,
’his is mere rumor, however, and
othing definite can be learned of any
uch candidate.
