AL WHITE
Candidate for Alaska legislature
PLACER LAW
I 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.
1 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.
X 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,
Stands on a Constructive and Progressive Platform
The Big Place
Is Still the Attraction.
Ws wish to announce to the public that we nowjhave in stock

the troops of the Mikado it will be
returned to China.
China May Forestall Japan
It is reported here that China will
take measures immediately to recover
the protectorate of Kiao-chau from
Germany and expects to take it before
the arrival of the Japanese troops.
It is also believed that if the Ger
man government intends to evacuate
the province that it will be turned
over by them to China and not Ja
nan
Germany Needs the Harbor.
Because of the large amount of
German and Austrian shipping now
at Tsing-tau, and the further fact that
the place is strongly fortified, it is
believed that Germany will refuse
to sacrifice the ships now at that
place by forcing them to run the
gauntlet of English, French and Ja
panese ships now off the harbor.

Italy 8ure To Be Involved.
LONDON, Aug. 17—High govern
