SEWARD. ALASKA. FRIDAY. NOVEMBER :J. 19H»
Many of the men running for office at next week’s
election are reai old pioneers. 1 he two men running ini
delegate to congress are comparatively old residents hut
they arc young compared to the iellows that hit the tijh.>
in the brave days of old and now have a most laudable am
bition to take part in the territory's public affairs. Sul-cer
came about l!H.k! and Wickersham came later as district
judge to Fairbanks. The Socialist candidate only appear
ed a few years ago. .lack Rottatt is one of the out Kion
ilykers and was president of the mine operators union in
1-airbanks. but was not president when the strike break
ers were brought in. He was. by the way. a most popular
employer. John Noon is so long in the territory that only
John himself is old enough to remember when he came in.
t he third local man. Hill Henry, is well known, and while
speaking of the Henrys it may be said that toe otner
henry, the Socialist, was a newspaper carrier in Kuby
after the strike. Dan Sutherland, the I’atrocies to \\ick
ersham's Achilles, is also a pioneer and is running for re
election to the senate. He was appointed l . marshal
by Taft but his head was soon chopped olY l'or political
reasons. Ho is very popular. Tanner of Skagway is a
man who took part in the Soapy Smith debacle. He was
soon afterwards appointed deputy marshal there. Scotty
Allan of Nome, running l’or the lower house, is the famous
dog racer who took the dogs to France for the army. John
Sundback of Nome was clerk of the court there and was a
Ktondvker. T. M. Keed and Andy Anderson of the same
place are also pioneers. The former is a lawyer and the
latter is a mining man. Martin Moran of the same divis
ion was 1’. S. Commissioner in the Kobuk. George Grigs
by was l . S. attorney at Nome. George Scholield was l\
S. commissioner there. Several of the other candidates
in this di\ ision have also been a long time residents of Al
aska but they are too well known generally to make it
necessary to speak of them. It is diflicult to call many
others to mind in a hurry that would answer the descrip
tion of pioneers hut the percentage of oldtimers running
for the legislature is very large notwithstanding the un
usual influx of people in recent years.
Unquestionably it is more ditlicult to carry out gov
ernment work than private work. The government un
dertakings have all the people as bosses. Therefore, af
ter all, people should be slow to draw comparisons be
tween private construction work and government con
struction work. These little comments are brought forth
by the remarks being made by many oldtimers regarding
the work done by M. J. Heney on the White Pass route
when he conquered the awful summit in the very heart of
the dreaded winter. As Heney cut through the mountains
of rock up to the summit and over the temperature was
sometimes thirty and thirty-five below zero with die wind
blowing as only the wind can blow on that fatal height.
But Heney went through even when men had to wear
masks on their faces.
