(Juneau Dispatch.)
With the opening of the third terri
torial legislature four weeks away the
usual speculation is being indulged in
regarding officers of both branches.
Two years ago Senator Dan Suther
and of the Fourth division, presided as
president, supported by the votes of
Gaustad, Hubbard and Aldrich. The
senate by reason of the death of Sen
ator Bruner only comprised seven
members.
It is understood Senator Aldrich is
an aspirant for president of the com
ing session. If Sutherland, Gaustad
and Hubbard, who are returning, sup
port him, he will only need the vote
of Heckman, of the First, or Sund
back, of the Second, to win. Heckman
and Sundback are republicans, while
Sutherland, Gaustad and Hubbard are
followers of Wickersham, without any
particular political affiliation.
Again Sundback and Heckman, reg
ular republicans, and Sulzer, Aldrich
and Ronan, democrats might form i
combination and elect the president.
In this event it would probably be
Sundback of Nome.
Inside information regarding how
closely the republican legislative tick
et campaign and the Wickersham cam
paign managed by Sutherland, in the
Nome division were consolidated
would have a great deal of bearing re
garding the position of Sundback.
Heckman, the republican member of
the First, was elected as a straight re
publican, and as far as known took no
interest in the delegate race.
If Aldrich goes with the democratic
minority then Sutherland, Gaustad,
Hubbard, Heckman and Sundback may
form a combination, which would
probably result in the selection of
Gaustad or Hubbard as president.
For clerk of the senate A. E. Maltby
is conceded the position. He served
two years ago with satisfaction to all
the members, is thoroughly familiar
with the work, and makes a most cap
able official.
For speaker of the house, Represen
tative Snow, the father of the prohi
bition referendum, holds the balance
of power. Representative Snow is a
democrat elected as a Wickersham in
dependent from the Fourth division.
From reports he was barred from the
democratic ticket to secure the wet
support for that ticket in the Fair
banks section. However, as William
Bums, democratic representative from
the Fourth, will be the democratic cau
cus choice for speaker, unless Nerland
who ran on the same ticket with Snow,
is the opposing republican candidate
it is believed Snow will support Burns.
Mr. Snow may want to be speaker in
which event he has seven democrats
and seven republicans to trade with to
get the necessary eight votes. With
the death of Representative Heid of
the First, the republicans lost control
of the house.
Barry Keown, of Nome, twice clerk
of the house, is returning for the posi
tion. It is believed Mr. Keown has as
surances of re-election as he made a
very competent clerk.
For the minor positions there will
be the usual overflow, gathering.
Rooms are already being engaged by
outside stenographers who expect to
be in Juneau seeking positions.
The legislature will convene on
March 5 in the Goldstein building. A
flood of new bills is anticipated by
those in touch with such matters. One
of the big fights of the legislature will
be over the compensation act. Promi
nent attorneys of the territory have
already bared their sheath knives for
this measure.
As near as can be estimated the ter
ritorial treasury will contain about
$300,000 when the legislature con
venes.
