• ALASKA’S
‘ GOVERNOR
SEATTLE, Dec. 8.—It is now gen
erally rumored here that John W.
Troy, owner and editor of the Juneau
Empire, will be a candidate for the
governorship of Alaska in the event
of Governor Strong’s retirement and
that Troy has already secured the
support of the democratic organiza
tion of the territory. The story here
is that Strong is tired of the job and
has decided to retire and recommend
Troy as his successor.
WHITTLESEY MAY
BE COMMISSIONER
SEWARD—That Judge W. H.
Whittlesey will be the next United
States commissioner in Seward may
now almost be taken for granted. It
is known that he has the support of
the local democratic organization and
from democratic sources comes the in
formation that he is a candidate. At
the time Woolley was appointed
Judge Brown stated the belief that a
democrat ought to have the place and
he told the local democrats that he
with them. Leading democrats now
state that .Whittlesey, has received the
organization recommendation. At
torneys say that while it is not neces
sa#v to have a lawyer as commissioner
it\ advisable to have one in the po
sition. Frank Ennis, the popular in
cumbent, has never made an effort to
hold the job as he is a believer in the
spoils tp the victor theory, and Frank
is an out and out republican.

SUFFRAGE ARMY READY FOR
RIG DRIVE ON CONGRESS
WASHINGTON, Deo. 6—The front
line of the army of woman suffrage
formed here today for the “big push”
on congress to force through the Su
san B. Anthony amendment at this
short session.
The initial move of the campaign
depends largely upon whether the at
titude of President Wilson which
leans toward state instead of federal ,
action has at all changed. Some suf
frage workers believe it has, that it
may be passed on promptly to the
states for ratification.
The following official statement;
was made today by the union through 1
the United press: “The feeling is
general that a demand for a federal
amendment should be pressed much
more insistently than heretofore in
view of the previous delay of congress
in dealing with the measure.
“The case for national suffrage has
been unanswerably presented. The
movement has been endorsed by wom
en vot"rs at the polls and there is on
ly one answer the administration can
give, namely tne passage of a federal
amendment at this session. The wo
men are not in a mood to brook delay.
“We are confident the attitude of
the administration will be favoralde,
because the democratic party to
maintain itself must look to the
west. It cannot hold the west without
the women voters; and to win their
support must aid woman suffrage.”
Miss Ahne Martin, of Nevada, na
tional chairman of the Woman’s par
ty, Is in charge-of the campaign.

TO BECOME A BENEDICT.
JUNEAU.—Joe Maherin, one of
the popular “Knights of the Grip,”
who, for many years has braved the
trails and vicissitudes of trail and
sea in Alaska, contemplates leaving
for the south, more especially, San
Francisco, his headquarters, on the
fourth proximo.
It was whispered to El Gnidrah, of
the Dispatch, last night by a personal
friend of the suave and affable travel
ing salesman that shortly after his
arrival in the Golden State he would
become a benedict. The informant
emphasized the fact that he would
stand back of this piece of news in
the event Joe attacked its authentici
ty.—Ex.
CORDOVAN DIES.
On Wednesday afternoon W. J.
Shepard received a telegram from A1
Low and H. W. Ross, former Cordov
ans, announcing the death of Arthur
B. Cooper at the Sitka Hot Springs
sanitorium, where our well known and
highly estemed townsman went to
recuperate his failing health about
two weeks ago. No particulars were
received, but as Mr. Cooper was suf
fering from organic heart trouble, his
death, no doubt, resulted from that
cause.—Times, Cordova.
