Delega Anthony J. Dimond at the head of the Democratic ticket appears to be leading the field and if he makes the same sort of showing in the other Divisions as he did in the First, he will be returned to Congress with a splendid vote of confidence for his fine efforts in behalf of the Territory. The trend is definitely Democratic, but all the Democratic candidates are not going to receive any such vote as appears to be piling up for Delegate Di- mond. H. R. Shepard, the Republican candidate for Sena- tor, polled an excellent vote in this end of the Divis- ion, his home section, and a race is on between him and Senator Norman R. Walker, although the latter is being given the best of it in the Ketchikan area While it will be days before the complete returns are known, there is much of gratification to the Demo- cratic party and its candidates in the face of the partial results. It reveals that the confidence in Dele- gate Dimond was not misplaced; that the people of Alaska are cog task well done, and that they feel his efforts in their behalf should be carried on. It means Alaska is on the march toward develop- ment and ultimate statehood. ant of a THE DEMOCRATIC TREND IN WASHINGTON STATE returns from Washington State not complete, there are sufficient to reveal that the trend of that state, normally Republican, is decidedly Democratic. Indications are that the state is going approximately four to one Democratic. Former Gov. Roland H. Hartley, who led the Re- publican machine for so many years in Washington, apparently is again that party’s choice but his vote is less than a third the Democratic poll. Gov. Clar- ence D. Martin apparently has captured the Democra- tic nomination over his rival, County Commissioner John C. Stevenson of King county, who made a re- markable run in his own county, but was no match £ r Martin in the state as a whole. An interesting angle presents itself in the Martin-| son race, and one entirely parallel with the sitnation in 1932, At that time Martin failed in King which includes Seattle, but Pierce county, h includes Tacoma, and Spokane, gave him sub- stantial leads and the election. Reports from the state are While the sounty today indicate that the same situation prevailed at| yesterday’s primary. Stevenson apparently is a potent political figure in King county, just another candidate, indicating that st the “cow counties” still prevails. y the most interesting thing in the Wash- ington primary, is the astounding vote given to Lieut. Gov. Victor A. Meyers, the jazz band leader. The musician ran away from his ticket and every other ticket in the state. He swept through like an aval- anche.
