This Is What an Old Sourdough Says:
The name of Mr. George I). Schofleld, for ATTORNEY GEN
ERAL, was mentioned today in tiie presence of Captain Charles L.
Peabody who made the following statement:
“Yes, I know Mr. Schofield, and regardless of his POLITICS
he is, in my opinion, more than an ATTORNEY, he is a LAWYER
and un ORATOR.
Mr. Schofield is a man of very strong personality, resourceful,
reliable and capable and with his wonderful mental ability and his
cecity for rapid thinking, I feci confident that the voting |>eople
of ALASKA are making no mistake in selecting him for their
ATTORNKY GENERAL."

LIQUOR INTERESTS NERVOUS
—
Wading in the criminal morass of
! their own creation, the liquor inter
• ests in half a dozen states where Its
■ existence is threatened this year, are
sending up a loud cry for help. In
Alaska they have turned to quoting
Cardinal Gibbons, C. W. Elliott and
Dr. Abbott to help the liquor side but
it will do no good.
They appeal to the father whose
son they have ruined to come to their
relief that they may ruin some more.
They appeal to the mother, whose
daughter they have debauched In or
der that they may debauch some more
daughters.
They appeal to the wife whose hus
band they have hanged in order that
they may send more men to the gal
lows.
They ask the drunkard's daughter
to vote wet In order that they may
make drunkards out of more fathers.
They ask the support of the work
ing man whose pay envelopes they
have stolen in order that they may
continue to steal pay envelopes.
Voters, you have helped at tl.e polls
this old robber long enough. Help
yourself for a change and vote to
make Alaska dry next Tuesday. Adv.

JOHN RONAN
Democratic Nominee

ELECTION NOVEMBER 7
I was not president of the Mine Own
ers’ Association at the time the letter pub
lished by George Dooley was issued.
My term of office ended September
1st, 1907, when I resigned.
While I was president of the Mine
Owners’ Association it issued no such ord
ers, nor did it discriminate in any way
against union labor. The operators belong
ing to the organisation at that time were
paying $6.00 per day instead of $5.00, as
mentioned in the letter published by Mr.
Dooley.
