The Wickersham rally at the A. B.
uall last evening drew a crowd which
died the large hull to its seating ca
pacity with an overplus of those who
.vere unable to secure seating accom
modations amounting to about one
uundred who were compelled to stand
throughout the evening.
Ladies were a prominent feature of
he occasion nml tiie gallery was
filled with members of tlie fair sex ,
and their escorts.
Excellent music was furnished at
intervals by the Nome Brass Band
of twelve pieces. Judge J. F. llobbes
acted as chairman of the meeting and
introduced the speakers in pleasing
manner. After a few remarks indi
cating his appreciation of the efforts
and services of Delegate Wickersham,
Judges Hobbes introduced Nome’s
baby orator, Chas. Wesley Brown. Mr.
3rown acquitted himself excellently
well In a well considered address in
inch he directed attention to the
msritous work of the delegate and
puiuteu out the benefits that have ac
crued to Nome and Alaska generally
as a result of his efforts. The ud
dress was concluded with the reading
of an eulogy of Judge Wickersham
printed in a Washington, D. C. paper
at the time of the passage of the Al
aska railroad bill.
Mr. Brown was liberally and loudly
applauded for his effort.
Following a selection by the band
Judge Hobbes introduced Senator
Senator Dan Sutherland, of Ruby, the
speaker of the evening. Mr. Sutherland
was greeted with a burst of applause
seldom accorded a political speaker in
Nome, regardless of his attainments
and which betokened an interest on
.he part of the audience totally dis
severed from politics. The audienco
apparently accepted the senator, us
an old friend whom they were genu
nely glad to see. Senator Suther
land opened his address with a few
remarks appreciative of his recep
tion, ascribing the cordiality of the
greeting to the fact that he was once
a resident of Nome. After stating that
the purpose of his appearance in
! Nome was to represent the delegate
who was not able to be present in
peison, the senator launched into an
of Limes eloquent defense of J udge
\V iekcisham, declaring that the prin
cipal opposers of his candidacy were
urn representatives of the “interests
.11 f cullicasleru Alaska together with
a few politicians and small office
ladders. The speaker then paid his
••aspects to the democratic platform
and literally rlddted that Important
enactment with broadsides of hot
shot, declaring that it was made by
iroy or the "subsidized Juneau press," ,
Cheney, the attorney for the hah
■ it.st and ilelleinhal, the legal repre
eeuutir. c of the Treadwell company,
ne also tore into the democratic
oaiiJ.da'e, Charles Sulzer and ridi
culed his ideas on the subject of ter
ritorial government. He also strong
' ly defended the attitude of Judge
Uickersham In the mailer of his op
position to mining law revision and
assorted that the democrats had blam
ed the delegate for opposing some
;n,iig that hud its inception In the
pie< nets of No. 42 Broadway. After
a discussion of the transportation
,u. s.ion and tlie attitude of the dele
gate thereto Senator Sutherland paid
eloquent-tribute to the delegate over
las'eltorLs to defeat the Alexander
bill, which he declared gave to the
usii trust complete control over
.he fisheries und the tidal property
lights along the Alaska- coast.- The
naiur concluded his address with
