while attending the legislature as a

Praises Legislature
Attorney tJeneral Rustgard declared
that he believed the recent legislature
was tty best and most Industrious
law-making bixiy that Alaska ever
had. Ho said the members worked
hard fn committee room and during
busTtyss hours, and as a whole show
ed an honest effort to secure the best
results. Tie said, of course, there
were measures passed which ought
nut t«> have been passed, and measures
killed which ought to have passed,
but as a whole he thought a number
of meritorious measures had been
■placed on the statute books, which the
people would come to realize a little
later. He blamed re.'ictlonary meas
ures mostly to the old hold-over TV
motwats in the Senate, whom, he said,
blocked progressive legislation. He
emphasized the need of divorcing ter
ritorial from federal offices, and de
clared that he organic act had provid
ed for that evil. Mi-. Ttustgard de
clared that intense f.u-tioruil differ
ences were due to tlie failure of th*
•parties to map out in advance princi
ples for which the candidates would be
pledged. Hu said in broad territorial
njpttaai.es t.fu vote of the legislators
h;ui been mostly progressive, but when
dtvisonn! question* arose fac.t!6nal
feeling cropped out. He thought the
Republicans should :11 once l* gin to j
map out a. progm/m for th“ coming j
elections and know exactly the thngs
for which Uieir candidates must stand |
Quit The Old Machine ;
laid loft the PemocrtUic party was I t- j
eiiine in Alaska, which si
tate all appointments without any re
gard to the wishes of the pimple.
Sergeant Smith said although his
parents hafl fought against the flag
of the I’nLon. for the rebel South, tie
had earlier studied and absorbed the
Republican principles of government
and had nevor seen any reason to
change. 0
For a United Party
John B. Marshall made a plea for
a united Republican party, including
every division in Alaska.. He sa.ii!
that the people were Just beginning
ro sea the effect of the primary law
and ft was up to the voters to become
active and see 'hat the primaries were
not controlled by the reactionaries of
the old machine. He thought the Re
publicans should communicate with
each other through their clubs and
agree upon a. territorial-wide program
:u advance of the primaries, in order
that the candidates would hare definite
principles on which to stand for elec
t‘011 before the people.
Judge ReFevoe also spoke in favor
of party unity, which was voiced by
other speakers present.
