In I113 speeches on the creeks
Delegate Wickersham is claiming
to be a “Socialist at heart” “part
iy a Socialist” etc, He diet the

at Valdez he took occasion tc
“pan” the Socialists and appeal

Now Mr. Wickersham, evident

finite “Socialistic,” basing h:<
ciaim to that distinction no doubt
on his belated conversion to th
principle of government c w i-.v
