TO THE VOTERS OF ALASKA

In declaring my candidacy for. National
Committeeman for Alaska for the Republican
Party, I feel that my residence of 32 years in the
Territory has given me some qualifications
which other candidates do not possess. Since
first coming to the North in 1896 as managing
owner of the steam schooner L. J. Perry, I have
made it my home, invested every dollar I have
earned in businesses and properties in it, and am
today one of the largest employers of Alaskans.
Oldtimers will remember me from 1896 when
I first went to the Cook Inlet country. In 1900,
with the first standard oil drill ever brought to
Alaska, I went to the Alaska Peninsula in what is
now nkown as the Cold Bay district and for
nine years endeavored to bring in a producing oil
field. Probably I would have been there until
now had the Federal Government not withdrawn
the oil lands from entry and forced me to shut
down. I was among the first to go to Cordova
and helped build that town. Since then I have
built up businesses and still conduct them in Cor
dova, Anchorage and Fairbanks. At Suntrana,
on the Alaska Railroad the Healy River Coal
Corpooration, of which I am president and part
owner, operates the largest producing coal mine
in Alaska. I say without boasting, but with
pride in it, that I have been an Alaskan for more
than a quarter of a century and believe earnestly
in the right of Alaskans to hold positions within
the Territory. To that end, if I am elected* I
pledge myself to approve no other policy.
The duties of a National Committeeman are
not many, but they are important. Chiefly, he
is spokesman for the party organization, repre
sents the National Committee in the Territory,
with the Delegate makes recommendations to
the President for Alaskan appointments, and at
all times makes it his business to see that the
party organization in the Territory is alive and
active. These things I assure you I will look after
with the same degree of attention that I have al
ways given my own personal business affairs.
In closing let me say that I am paying my
own campaign expenses with my own money. I
am not supported by any organization, political
or business. I am under obligations to no such
organization or individual. If I am elected, I
shall ask no one, neither a candidate for any po
' sition nor any one else, for any contribution to
pay the expenses of myself as National Commit
teeman. I shall pay my own way, both in the
campaign and, if elected, afterward.
I believe that, being free from financial obli
gations to either individual or organizations, the
National Committeeman will be in a position to
represent the rank and file of the party more
fairly and impartially than could be possible oth
erwise. I shall appreciate your support in the
Primary Election on April 24, next.
Yours very sincerely,
A. E. LATHROP.
Fairbanks. Alaska,
March, 1928.
