Candidate for Alaska legislature
PLACER LAW
I favor a repeal of tlie existing placer
law passed by the last legislature and be
lieve the legislature should get as much
information as possible from the prospect
ors of Alaska, relative to mining legislation.
ELECTION LAW.
I favor the enactment of a lawful and
proper election law; one that will meet
with the approval of the people of this
district.
LABOR.
I favor the passage of proper legisla
tion conducive to the prosperity and hap
piness of the laboring man. and, therefore,
I favor a repeal of the present eight-hour
law. I believe laboring men have a legal
and moral right to form trades unions for
the purpose of peaceably assuring concert
ed action in behalf of those things to which
they are entitled and which, without or
ganization, individuals cannot obtain.
I advocate and defend the right of work
ers of every branch of activity to organize
for the purpose of securing shorter hours
and increased wages.
I favor the enactment of a law making
it a felony to participate in any combina
tion or conspiracy to blacklist employees.
I also favor an employer’s liability act,
as well as safety appliance legislation to
protect the limbs, lives and health of the
workers.
CANNERIES.
I believe a law should be enacted and a
tax levied on the canneries and their pro
duction—a law that would compel the can
nery interests to pay.
DEVELOPMENT.
I favor the immediate development of
all the resources of Alaska and especially
this district, and believe the control should
be left to the people of Alaska and demand
that our coal, timber, oil and all other re
sources be opened for entry.
UNJUST LEGISLATION.
I am opposed to unjust and oppressive
sumptuary legislation which intereferes
with the personal rights of citizens.
To all of which I am pledged.

Colorado National Guardsmen Held
Not To Blame for the Shoot
ing at Ludlow.
i
« . -
1 DENVER, Aug. 26.—The findings of
the state court martial which inves
tigated the shooting at Ludlow two
months ago, when national guards
men killed many strikers and set fire
to the strikers’ tents, killing many
women and children, who were burn
ed to death in the pits that they
had dug in the ground in which to
retire when the battles between the
strikers and troops commenced, was
made public today and the militia are
exhonerated of any wrongdoing.
The court held that the strikers
had started the attack and that in the
fighting which followed the militia
had set fire to the tents, behind which
a constant fire was poured into the
troops, who at first feared to reply
because of the danger of hitting the
women and children and latei* be
coming convinced that all had
sought shelter, they drove the men
away with machine guns and then
set fire to the tents, never think
ing that the women and children were
in the pits.
The union officials, however, will
take the cases to the civil courts
and hope to punish the state troops
for the wholesale murders.
