WILSON RANKS
WITH LINCOLN
Says He Is One of Greatest Presidents
United States Has Ever Had and
Ranks With Lincoln, Jefferson
That President Woodrow Wilson Is
one of a great triumverate of Ameri
can presidents who rank among the
great statesmen of the world—the
other two of. whom are Jefferson and
Lincoln—is the opinion of George
Hazzard, of Tacoma, former chair
man of the Washington State Demo
cratic Central Committee.
Mr. Hazzard voted for two of the
triumverate—Lincoln and Wilson. He
was a soldier of the Union when he
voted for Lincoln during the Civil
war, and walks on crutches to this
day as the result of an ounce min
nie ball which he has carried since
receiving it on a southern battlefield.
Mr. Hazzard, who is in Valdez en
route to Fairbanks, to visit a son-in
law, said:
“As in 1861-5, when the American
people were behind Abraham Lin
coln, so are they now behind Wood
row Wilson. Wilson is one of a
triumverate of great presidents. The
other two were Thomas Jefferson and
Abraham Lincoln. Jefferson wrote
the Declaration of Independence and
■purchased Louisiana territory; Lin
coln freed the slaves, and under Wil
son the United States has become the
greatest nation that ever inhabited
the earth.
- “See what we have accomplished
under the twenty-eighth president:
We have settled the tariff question,
unified the trust laws, passed the
currency law, nationalized the navi
gation laws, give the country a for
eign policy that is the admiration of
the whole world, and opened Alaska
to Its great development.
"In 1856 the ‘Free Soil’ Democrats
and the anti-slavery Whigs joined
with the abolitionists and with John
C. Fremont as the first Republican
nominee for president they gave the
pro-slavery party a lick. Then in
1860, with Abraham Lincoln as a can
didate, they gave it another lick.
That ended for all time the pro-slave
party.
“History is repeating itself. In 1912
the Democratic party, under the lead
ership of Woodrow Wilson, gave the
Republican party a lick. In 1916, un
der the same leadership, it will give
the Republican party another lick,
and that will be the end for all time
of the party of paternalism and spec
ial privilege, which, like its predeces
sors, the Federal and Whig parties,
will pass into history.
"Under the wise administration oi
Progressive Democracy the country
is destined to have a long period ol
industrial activity and highly pros
perous development.
“What is there left for the oppo
sition to President Wilson to stand
upon? Not the tariff, for that is, for
one, at least, and perhaps two, dec
ades, aB dead as African slavery. The
European war has removed the tar
iff from intelligent consideration for
many years. There is no occasion for
a tariff wall against imports that are
not coming, and cannot be expected
to come for a long and Indefinite per
iod. When the war ends the nations
of Europe engaged will be busy for
years rehabilitating their Industries.
They will be importers of our manu
factured articles Instead of exporters,
and a large balance of trade will be
in our favor for many years.”
Speaking of Alaska, Mr. Hazzard,
who visited the territory years ago,
said there has been a remarkable
chance in Alaska since he was here
before. He continued:
ureaier
"A greater development Is coming
to Alaska than Its most sanguine clt
izen anticipates. Towns will grow In
to cities and new towns will spring
forth to grow into cities in their day.
Railroads will traverse the territory
In every direction: agriculture will be
developed, and all cereals known tc
the north temperate zone, aside from
oorn, which requires the hot nights
that we do not have on the Pacific
coast, grasses and all the hardier veg
etables, will be raised In plethoric
abundance. !
“The present Democratic admlnls
tratlon has made way for this devel
opment, and It will further foster l1
as It proceeds on Its course.
"In the course of time—during the
lifetime of many men of middle age
now living—three great states will be
erected from the terrl'ory that no*
constitute Alaska. I hope they will
name them Alaska, Seward and Lin
coin.”

The marshal's office has been ad
vised of the arrival of the steamer
Cordova with the survivors of the
revenue cutter Tahoma at Unalaska.
The Cordova, having no license to
accept passengers, all of the men
from the Tahoma were left at Un
alaska. Marshal Hastings and a
number of witnesses needed by the
authorities of the district court will
take the Victoria to Seattle and then
come to Valdez and If the term of
court Is still in session at Seward will
go west.
CITY FATHERS
QUITTING VALDEZ
Mayor Ritchie is now in Seward at
tending court, Councilman John
Lyons leaves on the Mariposa for
Seward to attend court and Inciden
tally to meet the people of the west
ward town and appeal to them for
support at the coming election, as
he Is a candidate for the house,
Councilman Harry E. F. King leaves
on the Mariposa for a business trip
to the states and Councilman Al.
White intended also to leave for Sew
ard on the Mariposa, but has decided
to remain because of the fact that no
quorum would be on hand at the
meeting of the city council when it
sets as a board of equaliation on
October 12. As some of the prop
erty owners with land in the out
skirts of the city believe that the as
sessments have been too high they in
tend to have the council reduce the
amounts charged against them.
GERMANS TAKE
MANTPRISMERS
BERLIN, Oct. 5.—The war office
has announced the capture of 150,000
Russians to date. The men were all
captured during the Russian opera
tions in East Prussia, where, at one
time two full Russian corps, num
bering 70,000 men, surrendered at Al
lensteln. The war off'ce also states
that the Austrians have captured
many Russian soldiers to date and
that a large number of Finns sur
renuer because of the opposition and
hatred they hold for the Russian gov
ernment.
JAPS WELLED
TO EITEfl CHINA
PEKIN, Oct. B.—Tbe Japanese gov
ernment, in reply to the strong note
of protest made by the Chinese gov
ernment regarding the violation of
the neutrality of China by the invad
ing forces of the Mikado, replied to
day that they were compelled to in
vade the neutral territory through
which the German railroad ran be
cause it would have been dangerous
to have allowed the road to remain
in the hands of the German owners.
The Chinese government, however, is
not satisfied with the reply and has
sent another strong note to Toklo re
garding tbe affair.
