J.EST WE FORGET
Two years ago, when the demo
cratic administration was in the T-iU
fl'ish of victory and Alaska demo
crats were being rewarded with of
fices for party feajty there was a
delegate election in Alaska, says
the Fairbanks Nawn-Jliuer. The
same issue was at stake that is at
stake this year—that of sending a
party man to congresa. The same
old arguments maintained and there
was plenty of money for democratic
campaign purpaiee. Delegate Wick
ereham had until then, expressed
no sympathies with the democracy
or the administration and did not
hare to his credit the Alaska rail
road, Alaska public buildings fwi*
the winnings he ha* made in the
past Vwo years, and had far less
claim upon the people of Alaska
than he now has, yet the voters
insisted upon giving him nearly
three times as many rotes as they
cast for the democratic candidate,
Jennings. Following is the official
vote, certified to by the Terriotrial
secretary;
WICK. REP. SOC.
1st Dist. 604 191 227
2nd Dist. 290 *>S5 271
3rd Dist. 750 539 192
•4th Dist. 1,691 311 998
3,335 1,726 1,688 1,174
The Democratic candidate, with
the full backing of the administra
tion, finished a poor third in tli®
racee, making a miserable showing.
Such democratic strength as has
been gained in Alaska in the last
t>>o yeara, not being due iu any
way to the influx of population,
must have been gained upon the
principle that there is money in be
lug a democrat today. The num
erical resul* of such a gain in this
territory is too small to mention,
the gain being located around the
centers of district government. Iu
the past two years Delegate Wicker
sham hag done his greatest work
for Alaska and has received his
widest commendation and en
couragement from Alaska. There
U every reason why the Wickersharn
strength should have iacreased ex
tensively in Alaska in the past two
years, and no reason why the demo
cratic strength should have increas
ed. As Delegate Wiekersham two
years ago beat the democratic candi
date nearly three votes to one, it
stands to reason tat the Wicker
sham majority this year should be
five to one over the democratic
candidate.
Figures wom't lie, aud Here are
the figures for the democrats.
4 AFTER THK WOMAJC VOTE"
Th»> Juneau Tammany ring in an
appeal to the women to "wake up''
aud rote for the democratic legis
lative ticket, written by Si Tanner,
Is about the best joke yet perpetrat
ed in the name of politics in Alas
ka, One must at last give Mr.
Tanner credit for a sense of humor.
WUeu one considers that it was he
who was beaten by ths women in
his home town, because of hi6
radical anti-suffrage expressions,
and that Arthur G. Shoup, one of
the candidates on the non-partisan
ticket, whom the Tanner circular
attacks, was the legislator in the
first territorial assembly who fath
ered and put through the measure
which gives women in Alaska the
right to vote, the full humor of the
situation is apparent.—Juneau Dis
patch.
PREMATURE, BUT TRUE
The Valdez Daily Prospector in
Starting out Its leading editorial in
ltj issue of October 21st, sayfi;
"Chac, E. Bunnell, choice of the
democrats of Alaska for delegate to
congress. has come and gene."
Of course, in writing a man's
obituary it is customary to wait
until he has ceased to breathe, but
in thlg instance we car. see a-here
tho Prospector la justified in l'8
"prematurity," it wo ny be allow
ed to use the word.
