Candidate for Alaska legislature
PLACER LAW.
I favor a repeal of the existing placer
haw 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.

ADMIRAL SCHLEY
NOW IN FRISCO
—
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 5.—The
steamer Admiral Schley, of the Ad
miral Line, arrived here today from
New York, having passed through the
Panama canal. The steamer brought
John J. Aughan as a stowaway and
it is believed he is the first stow
away to have passed through the ca
nal. Aughan was paid one cent, for
the work the captain forced him to
do to earn his passage. He was
made to polish brasswork for eight
hours a day for twenty-three days,
the time it required for the ship to
reach here from New York.
The Admiral Schley will be placed
on the run between this city and
Seattle and will relieve the Admiral
Watson, which is to replace the ill
fated Sampson, which was rammed
and sunk in Puget Sound.
