Candidate for Alaska Legislature
PLACER LAW
1 favor a repeal of the 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.
1 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,

CITIZENS LISTEN
TO JUOGE HUBBARD
Tells of Work At National Capital
That Brought About Railroad
Legislation.
The Orpheuni theater was crowded
to the doors last night to hear Judge
O. P. Hubbard tell the citizens of
Valdez of the efforts that were being
made to have Valdez selected as one
of the terminals of the railroad which
the government will build from tide
water to Fairbanks.
The Orpheuni management provid
ed splendid music for the occasion
and showed a two-reel animal feature
film which was one of the best pic
tures ever sent to Alaska.
The speaker of the evening was
then introduced by Secretary Fish,
of the Commercial Association, who
has kept Mr. Hubbard informed of
the work of the Association in get
ting Valdez recognized. Mr. Hubbard
is a fluent and convincing speaker,
and told of his interview with Sec
retary Lane, who directly represents
President Wilson, in the Alaska rail
road work.
He illustrated his remarks with a
map of central Alaska, upon w-hich
he had drawn a north and south line
crossing through Portage bay. On
this map was marked in colors the
mineral and agricultural resources of
Alaska that would not be benefited
by a railroad unless it should start
from Valdez. He did not think that
either the president or congress
would agree to any plan of railroad
routes which gave everything to the
territory west of the line and noth
ing to the territory east of the line.
Nor did he believe that it was the
intention of congress to depreciate
the value of the pioneers properties
by building a railroad from a new
location, but that the government
should build up and not tear down
property values of the pioneers.
