The Dispatch says: "Can any
' one find an issue for the delegate
race. With the exception of Nome
vs. Fairbanks, Valdez vs. Seward.
Jo ieau vs. Sitka, we cast around:
vainly for a plank to fit the plat-1
’ form. Every convention that |
meets will endorse the Roosevelt;
administration, territorial form of
government, a local government
for the people and by the people,
sympathy for the people of Cali
fornia, and either a bunch of
honev or a big scare head roast for
the judge of the Third Alaska ju
iScial division. The only live is
sue that presents itself is whether
the First division will line up with
Nome, Fairbanks or Seward. Ini
either event with a full vote at
home she can land the plum.
The house has passed the senate
bill making several amendments
to the Alaska wagon road law. one
of which allows members of the
road commission subsistence at the
expense of the government while
traveling on official business.
Alaska is officially a “territory”
of the United States, and not a
"district.” The territorial desig
nation is carried in the Alaska
delegate bill. All legislation here
tofore enacted for Alaska lias been
for the District of Alaska. In the
new delegate bill the words “Terri
tory of Alaska” are substituted in
stead of “District of Alaska,” in
the enacting clause and elsewhere,
wherein the whole domain of Alas-;
ia is referred to.
It seems very strange after all
the presure that was reported as
being brought on Congress to act
in the Wickersham matter, that no
action was taken. Can it be that!
the reports were some more of the j
“unreliable press” furnished by j
Walter Clark?
The Nome Nugget recently af
firmed that “some of the litt le whif- j
fets who are snarling at Gov. Brady
are like a lot of yellow curs snap
ping at a wounded mouse.” The
Valdez Prospector copied the par
agraph approvingly but some typo
grapf ical fiend set it up to read
"yellow cure snapping at a wound
ed mouse.”—Gateway.
Seward must have a “typograph
ical fiend” too.

After tho politicians have sung'
their song, watch the sections line j
up in Alaska to get in their man.j
Any time you think that you can j
lasso a voter in Alaska and put on I
a political brand because he voted '
the Republican or Democratic |
ticket ten years ago, you are mis-j
taken. The delegate fight will re-j
solve down to local issues, regard
l*?s of the active politician.—Dis
patch.
The Juneau Dispatch mentions
Judge Wickersham as one who isj
prominently spoken ot as a candi- j
date for the delegateship. The
Judge has not announced his can-1
didacy here as yet although it has
been expected for some time.
Ln a report on the hill authoriz
ing the sale to private parties of
the government cable and teh - j
graph system in Alaska, Gen. Al-1
len, Chief signal officer, estimates ;
the cost of 2,333 miles of sub
marine cable at $1,121,000. I!j
installed nowit would cost 2 per
tent more, owing to the increase1
in the cost of material. The land
lines, 1,405 miles long, cost $807, |
500. _
The Juneau Record-Miner in a
recent issue had a scare head stat
ing that “The Governor Dined”.
Dinners must be very infrequent ;
in that section. Even the printers '
in Valdez dine every day.
