The Juneau Empire is very
much delighted that it succeed
ed in “mass voting” the people
of Juneau for Marqutom.
“The fact remains that the
Republican ticket were picked
for the position to which they
were selected by an Indian boss
and they will be dominated by
him in their legislative acts”
(from Stroller’s Weekly of
Nov. 6, 1926). The Juneau
Empire says; “Those who know
these men say they will mot
permit Mr. Paul to dominate
them and make them parts* of
his well-oiled political machine.”
Get together, boys.
“The defeat of the candidates
on the Independent Divisional
ticket is a tragedy, the cost of
which time alone will compute.
—Strollers.”
We guess the cost was plenty,
Stroller, but you didn’t have
to pay it, and the canneries
won’t tell.
“The defeated element has
the satisfaction of havin'g con
ducted a campaign wholly free
from calumny, slander and
filth.”—Strollers.
Well, you helped to name
Manquam, didn’t you?
“The successful Divisional
ticket is not, with one exceep
tion, composed of Indians and
the majority of them are said
to be representative men/’
Strollers.
What do you mean by “the
majority of them”?
Please copy, Cordova Times,
Juneau Empire, Seward Gate
way, and others; Rollic Davis,
cannery superintendent, paid a
fine of $100 f®r illegaj voting
last November. The Associat
ed Press reporter has not yet
learned of the event.
“Secretary Hoover is delight
ed at the recovery of the Al
aska salmon fisheries.”
^Well he should be. With
over 100 more traps in S. E.
Alaska, the canneries put up
26,000 more cases over 1925.
“He (Mr. Hoover) even sent
college boys up there during
their summer vacation to count
the salmon and do laboratory
work'.”
We have seen some of the
work and we conclude that they
really came to do “lavatory”
work, instead.
The Bar Association of Jun
eau felt sorry for one of their
members who was indicted by
a grand jury for subornation of
perjury and at once advised
the court that their associate
was not guilty, or at least he
should be retained as commis
sioner.
That bunch of lawyers give
us a pain.
“Nugget says Nome will go
for Marquam.”
It went for him and got him.
“There will be a landslide'’
Juneau Empire. There was.
The people of the Third
Division did not appreciate the
statesmanship of Mr. Charles
Wilcox, ex-speaker.
William Hanlon, mayor o:
Sitka, certainly picked out the
“false prophets.”

Billy, you will have to get
back on the water wagon.
It’s -a peculiar thing about
Juneau, the spell comes on just
as the speaker says, “Friends
of the Juneau Commercial
Club.” After that mayors and
others are, like the man who
said “Sure, honest, I only took
one drink.”
The Juneau Commercial Club
used to . bunk the people of
Juneau by Jiving a “Commun
ity Chest V5*ive” once a year.
Last year they gave about $250
to charity from the “community
chest.” The rest went to the
Juneau Empire and others.
“Help yourself. It is for the
poor, you know.” ^
Talk about gall! A bunch
from the J. C. Club, galled upon
Judge Wickersham ior a con
tribution—for the Juneau Em
pire’s community chest.
