GEO. GRIGSBY TO RUN
FOR HIE DEMOCRATS
I
Popular Nome Man Almost Sure to be
Standard Bearer This Year.
George B. Grigsby, of Nome, \ ill
almost certainly be the standard
bearer of the Democrats of the ler- j
ritory at the election tor congress j
next year. The Gateway is in a posi
tion to make thi* statement attei
having received intelligence from
different sources. It is absolutely in
a position to say that Grigsby will ac
cept the nomination if it is offered to
him, and the chances are good that
it will be.
Mr. Grigsby was tormeriy uisinci
attorney of the Second division under
the republican administration but
claims to have always been a demo- j
crat. Since he lose his office ow ing
to his independence ar.d his refusal
to do what the powers asked him to .
do he has been identified with the
democratic party in Nome and was
one of the strongest supporters ot
Robert Jennings in the last election
but one. Indeed, Grigsby was slated
then for a pb.ee and would probably
have receive*! it were it not for the
fact that the administration took it
upon itself to send in carpet-baggers.
If George l». Grigsby is a candi
date he will probably take a lot of
beating. He is immensely* popular
in the Stnond division and will can s
Nome hands down. He is a young
and brilliant attorney, fought in the
Spanish war and his father before
him held the rank of Colonel.
As he has signified his intention of
accepting the candidacy, and as the
j democrats could probably not get as
strong a man anywhere else, it is
1 safe to say, as the heading of this
/
story says, he will run for the demo
crats next year.
Grigsby occupies a position politi
cally similar to that of Marshal F. R.
Brenneman, who is now in Seward.
When Brenneman was appointed
United States marshal everyone
thought him a republican because he j
held office under a republican admin-1
istration. but Marshall, who is now
vice-presklent, knew Brenneman
when the latter took an active part
; in democratic politics outside. The j
same may be true of Shorthill, new
; secretary of the governor, whom .
everyone thought a republican but j
who declares that the only president
he ever voted for was William Jen-i
nings Bryan.
