For President—CHARLES EVANS HUGHES.
For Delegate to Congress—JAMES WICKERSHAM.
THIS IS THE DAY.
This is election day and Anchorage expects every qualified
voter to go to the polls and vote, in order to make as good a
showing as possible for the tow*vt» There are two polling places
and it will require very little time to cast your ballot. There
is absolutely no excuse in remaining away from the polls.
While it is too early to reach a conclusion as to the elec
tion results in this territory, we may venture a prediction as
to the outcome. In the matter of the delegate election, we have
no hesitation whatever in predicting a decisive victory for
Delegate James Wickersham. The First division is the only
one in which there is any room for doubt at all, and our advices
today indicate that the delegate will carry that division by at
least 200 votes. We frankly believe that the delegate will car
ry every division in the territory.
A closer contest is that as between George B. Grigsby, the
democratic candidate for attorney-general, and George B. Scho
field, the alleged republican candidate for this office. We do
not consider the incumbent, J. II. Cobb, as in the race. ITis
campaign in his home division has petered out completely, ac
cording to our telegraphic advices today. As between Grigsby
and Schofield, we believe that Grigsby will win. We believe
this because we are confident that Alaskans, as a whole, will
vote for Alaska candidates, rather than a Seattle candidate
running on the Alaska ticket. Surely, if Schofield makes no
better showing in other parts of Alaska than he is making in
the Cook inlet country, his chances are mighty slim. Tn the
| Cook inlet countx-y the vote will be between Grigsby and Cobb,
<* with Grigsby leading, in our opinion. But in other parts of the
territory, Cobb will make no appreciable showing.
It is rather difficult to pick the winner in the senatorial
race as between Dooley, Ronan, Fi’ame and Geraian. All of
these candidates will make a showing in the Cook inlet coun
try. The republicans are going down the line in support of
Dooley, the democrats are supporting Ronan, the socialists are
faithful to German and the progressive democrats are working
for Frame. We believe, however, that in the division as a
whole, Dooley will be the victor. If he holds his owrn here, that
is about as good as lie can expect.
For representatives in the lower house of the Alaska legis
lative assembly, Frank B. Cannon is expected to lead all other
candidates in the Cook inlet .country. .Joe Murray and William
P. Henry are getting a mighty fine support and should come out
of here with a sxibstantial vqte. These three candidates should
be ejected, so far as wre have been able,to ascertain the senti
ment of the voters.
Hd. Wood, candidate on the republican ticket, has many
old-time friends in the Cook inlet country that are out work
ing in his behalf today, and he is sure to make a good showing
wdien the votes are counted.
BIG INTERESTS BEHIND SULZER.
Mr. Sulzer, in his speech at the Empress theatre Friday
night, stated lie was receiving the support of mining men in the
Territory. This statement, to a certain extent, is true. He
is receiving the support of some mining men, most notably that
of Bart L. Thane, the head of the Alaska-Gastineau Mining
company, of Juneau. Mr. Thane gives as his reason for sup
porting Mr. Sulzer, the fact the republicans have no candi
date in the field for delegate. However, he does not explain
WHY the republicans of the Territory have no candidate. The
so-called republican convention at Seward, April 19th, was
dominated by Mr. Thane, through his henchmen, L. P. Shackle
* ford, and others. They had the possession of a majority of
the proxies of the delegates to the convention which they had
procured by promising to use them for Judge Wickersham, and
they offered Judge Wickersham the nomination if he would
agree to one thing, namelv: THAT ALL PRESIDENTIAL
APPOINTMENTS TO PUBLIC OFFICE IN ALASKA BE
, MADE ONLY UPON THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE
REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEEMAN OF THIS
TERRITORY; and the republican national committeman was
a man that Mr. Thane had the power to select and did select.
Judge Wickersham declined the nomination. Now WHY is
Mr. Thane supporting Mr. Sulzer! The answer is apparent.
Because Mr. Sulzer has agreed to recommend for public office
in Alaska only such men as ^re satisfactory to the Alaska-Gas
tineau Mining Company. 1!
The republicans of the Third Division have repudiated the
action of the Seward Convention and have endorsed Judge
Wickersham for delegate to Congress.
Mr. Sulzer, upon other occasions, has shown his zeal in
behalf of the Alaska-Gastineau Mining Company. The pres
ent Workmens’ Compensation Act was introduced by Mr.
Sulzer at the instance of that company; and during the pro
ceedings that were had in the Territorial Senate while that
measure -was pending, Mr. Sulzer did the bidding of L. P.
Shackleford, counsel for the Alaska-Gastinea uMining Co., who
occupied a seat in the senate room immediately behind him,
and prompted what Mr. Sulzer did during the discussion of
the bill. •
Mr. Sulzer has also shown his unfairness to the other parts
of the Territory by attempting to keep for the First Division
the road funds derived from the forest lands, and his opposi
tion was so keen he caused the matter to be carried into the
courts, where it was finally held that this money belonged to
the entire Territory and was not for the benefit of any particu
lar section.
