WHO IS MISINFORMED?
(Continued from Fere On»l
reindeer number 91,000. This is the official report of the i
committee.
Turn 91,000 reindeer over to the mercies of an or-j.
ganization owning but 34,000 on this roundup! Of these |
88,673 deer are owned by natives.
Now let’s have more “poppycock.”
The Gateway has copies of official documents on file
in the Reindeer Service together with a vast amount
of private correspondence, enlarging upon the entire
subject of reindeer propogation from the date Sheldon
Jackson bought the first herd on money raised by popu
lar subscription to the present state of development. It
has already published much of this material, but not all!
It has copies of the telegraphic correspondence be
tween Ben B. Mozee, former Secretary of the Interior
Ray Lyman Wilbur and Governor George A. Parks,
wherein Mozee was offered another job and retirement
pay, if he would strike his colors in fighting to conserve
a federally owned industry established for'the primitive
wards of the government and yield to the dictation of a
Wall Street Corporation.
It has copies of official documents showing wherein
the first deer were alienated from the government thru
the Swedish mission, without right or authority and sold
to Lindeberg over the protest of Walter Shields, super
intendent of the N. W. district.
We have the official reports of the Bureau of Edu
cation estimating the number of reindeer in Alaska at
more than 1,000,000.
Thus giving the Lomen Corporation all it is entitled
to and based on the percentage above shown, the natives
would own more than two to one of this herd.
The Gateway has a copy of the Lomen’s organiza
tion plan presented to the committee, in which it was pro
posed to abolish brands and allot deer on a percentage
basis!
Not having the space the Empire boasts, it is j
impossible to reproduce this great mass of evidence in
support of the Gateway’s statement from which it does
not retract, that every, step within the past eight years j
has been toward placing the reindeer industry solely in |
the hands of the Lomen Corporation. ? j
In view of what transpired prior to Governor Troy’s |
incumbency as chief executive of the Territory, it is
difficult to reconcile his endorsation of the situation in
the light of the Kendrick hearing and recommendations. I
It is difficult to believe that he accepts the heirship of the j
plunderbund administrations which succeeded Franklin i
D. Roosevelt, and the slogan of the “new deal.” j
The term “poppycock” does not belong either to ed- j
itorial discussion or debate. Anyone in the street may
sling mud and vituperatives, but the public demands
facts in both editorials, discussions thereof and debate.
Let the Empire parade its arguments, not its persi
flage. \
The Empire’s error is NOT having reviewed ail
the evidence but in accepting the report as gospel simply
because it was promulgated by two cattle kings.

ORANGEBURG, N. J. June 22. —
Johnny Buckley, manager of Jack
Sharkey, is vigorously denying the
report that the champion will

Square Garden auspices in the fall.
Regardless of the June 29 fight

gram for any other bouts this

in defense of his title until next
summer.
