Grigsby responded that he surely
could have no complaint on the
■introduction or on the number of
1 people who had come out to hear it.
STARTS VIGOROUSLY
He then launched vigorously into
; the theme of his discussion
by saying that many false issues
had been raised which he wanted
cleared away.
First of all he wanted it under
stood that he stood n the Seward
Democratic platform as well as the
National Democratic platform
which call for Home Rule in its real
sense and that he was proud of the
fact that A1 Smith was the Demo
cratic candidate for President,
: since he has been one of the best
Governors New York has ever had,
i and that he is a friend of develop
ment and a friend of Alaska. He
Caid he heard his opponent speak
in Fairbanks and never heard him
mention the name of Hoover once. :

He said that his opponent had j
very successfully clouded the issue

been so busy attacking this and
that candidate to the Territorial
Legislature that the people might
j -vpl1 believe that he was running
1 for the Legislature himself. He
| declared that from his standpoint
candidate for Delegate to Con
gress he was neither for or against
the Controller Bill but since his
(opponent had apparently made it
j‘m issue, if he had any issue at all,
j then it must be considered ai,
; though it was purely a matter for
j the Legislature of Alaska to decide
upon.
He referred to the Philippine |
Board of Control which was an in- 1
c'ustrial control board with the j
handling of $50,000,000 but no soon- ;
0” got in power than they began j
wild extravagances, loaned out'
their money to private interests!
and even speculated on Wall Strew
This board became such a stench to
the Government that it-had to be
abolished.
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY i'i
I Without attempting to quote the
'speaker in full, he went into the
j history of the Territory’s first at
tempts at Legislation in the first
! l egislative assembly in 1912, when
jw.Vnout money the Legislators laid
the duties of collecting taxes upon
iU. S. Commissioners and U. S.
Clerks of Court, which they refused
land which was corrected by Wick
! erham’s Validation Bill in Con
gress permitting the imposing of
additional duties upon Federal of- !
Lees here not inconsistent with I
their Federal duties anct which;
went into effect in 1914. Since that j
time in every Legislature, he dc- !
dared, Boards have been created, j
imposing duties of all kinds, clerks J
and stenographers hired, infinitum, j
a nd in that way Territorial work i
was done as an adjunct to the Fed- j
cral Administration.
GANG GETS BUSY
It F’S th»n t,h"> ^ r'cr^Ti’O'J
j that some men in the First Division
| saw the opportunity of creating a
j political machine and cooked up
l the Controller Bill, it was invent
ed by Wickersham and fathered by
William Paul. They saw an oppor
tunity in this Board, he said, to
control ail Territorial functions,
and with the biggest vote in that
District they felt confident of their
ability to control that Board. They
even propoed, he said, when the
Bill became a law to establish a
steamship line controlled by the
Board. This Bill later was intro
duced by William Paul.
“But my opponent who if elected
will owe his election to Paul who '
controls the Indian vote of the
First Division, must back every
Ilegislative candidate who is for the
Contrller Bill and denounce every
one who is against it.-’ His oppon

cnt, he said, had been particularly
vehement against Tony Dimond of
Valdez, Democratic candidate for
Senator because he feared Di

the Controller Bill. He said that
they called it a Home Rule Bill but
toat they could never get Home

the fish story
^aKing up the fisheries theme he j
said that the Bureau of Fisheries
‘seemed to care more for a fish f
than for a fisherman,” which i
i brought a round of applause. Al- j
j though the .fisheries represent 70 ;
j percent of the Territorial output in
j wealth, the Territory has not a sin
jgle voice in its control, but one man
'of the Bureau of Fisheries, Henry
O’Malley, can make or break a
community or a while section in 24
hours. He declared that the peo- j
pie of Alaska were amply able to
handle their own fishng problems 1
U-S w°h as their game problems. He I
quoted President Coolidge and,
lormei Secretary of the Interior ;
Franklin K. Lane to the effect that
Bureaueiatic Government should
not exist, the latter declaring that
Alaska had suffered more from this
tyranny than any other Territory, j
He said that he was against ultra- ;
I conservation; was against the leas- I
ing system and that coal and oil!
should be mined without royalty. I
jHe spoke of a declaration of his op- !
ponent that the fisheries were un
justly taxed and that the Kenne- !
cott Co., got off cheaply. He quot- !
ed figures showing this was untrue .
and argued that if the tax on cop
per was increased it would neces- I
aarily follow that the tax on gold i
must be increased just at the time I
vhen mining is beginnng to get |
Pack on its feet after companies j
have spent huge sums in Fairbanks
-nd Nome which it will take them l
30 years to get back.
BONE DRY LAW UNJUST
He was strictly against the Bone
Dry Lav/ because it worked out in
so many unjust ways and the whole
prohibition question was adminis
tered in different districts in dif
| rerent manner, some under the
| /olstead and some under the Bone
Pry law. He thought it time to call
!n halt when a man could get a year
and $1000 fine as happened in Ket
chikan, just for getting drunk, and
fhe same man could stagger down
both sides of Pennsylvania Avenue
| in Washington under the very
(dome of the National Capitol and
| the policeman would only tap him
on the shoulder and tell him to go
home.
