I MINERS ENDORSE 1
DELEGATE CALE
I
Valdez Branch of Federation
Strongly Opposes Hog
gatt Faction Man.
Thomas Cale's candidacy for dole
gate to congrose received unqualified
and enthusiastic endorsement of the
Valdez Federation of Miners at a
meeting of the organization held Sat
urday night. After the meeting the
miners sent a telegram to the federa
tion in Fairbanks, telling what had
been done here and advising against
placing any candidate in the lleld
who would have a tendency to draw j
votes from ('ale.
The feature of the meeting is the
animosity toward Governor Hoggatt
felt and expressed by the member* of
tin- federation. The members of the
miner's organization in this part of
Alaska arc not particularly well ac
quainted with Delegate Cale but they
I know that he was elected on a miner's
ticket and believe that he has done
all in hi* power to aid the cause of
labor; when it comes to Governor
Hoggatt, however, the miners are
thoroughly familiar with the details
of that gentleman's official career
and the hurden of the majority of the
remarks made at Saturday night's
meeting was an excoriation of the
governor and his policies.
1 logan Olson, of Kllamar, was pro
minent anion}; those of the miners
who addressed the meeting and lie
strongly advised against doing any
thing that might in any way threaten
the ehanees of ("ale's election, with
t he consequent aid to the lloggatt
eandidatc, John Corson. Many others
of the miners made speeches) along
similar lines and these remarks were
well received by the forty or more
members of the organization who at
tended the meeting.
The miners were also addressed by
Dr. \V. A. Kystrom, who is an honor
ary member of the organization, and
by Charles Wulll, secretary of the
territorial committee. JJoth speakers
emj hasi/.ed the necessity <>f Calc's re
ceiving tin* undivided support of the
labor element it it be desired that all
danger of success of the lloggatt can
didate be removed. Dr. Kystrom ad
vised that if the miners desire a can
didate partieularly tlx ir own, that
tlie nominal«cn of such a candidate
be deferred until another election,
giving the miners time to thoroughly
perfect their organisation, thus prac
tically assuring their success. Charlie
Wnllf dwelt on the fact that Cale is
preeminent 1 v a labor candidal)! and
that lie lias al\va,\s been known as a
miner and as a friend of labor. Moth
speakers were well received.
Allot her phase of the meeting and
one that promises to bring results in
t he fnt lire is the demand of the miners
that the date of election be changed
from August to some time late in the
fall. It was pointed out that the pre
sent date of election finds the majori
ty of the miners in the bills and there
fore deprived of their vote. The
miners will make an effort to have
the election date changed by an act
of congress.
The ad of the national committee
in scaling the lloggatt delegation to
the national convention has had the
effect of increasing the Cale senti
ment in Valdez and the mass meeting
to be held in McKinley hall tomorrow
night for the purpose of giving him
an endorsement, promises to be so
largely attended that the capacity of
the hall will be overtaxed.

HQGGATT BUNCH
GETS THE PLUM
National Committee Seats
Shackelford and Shea as
Alaska Delegates.
Washington, June 13—The Alaska
delegation composed of L. P. Shack*
elford, of Juneau, and Georgo Shea,
of Nome, representing the faction
controlled by Governor Hoggatt, was
seated this morning after a sharp
light in the national committee. Shea
announced that he will vote for
Shackelford for national committee
man and the Hied faction is routed.
It is announced that the action of the
committoe places Governor Hoggatt
in complete control of Alaska.
At the opening of the Alaska con
test Senator Fulton, holding the Cali
fornia proxy, moved that the those
so-called regular delegates be seated
with a third vole each. Statter
amended this motion so as to provide
for seating the entire Heid faction
but this failed to carry by a vote of
17 to '27. Chairman Newton announc
ed that he was opposed to splitting
the territorial delegotes and moved
that Shackelford and Shoa be seated.
Senator Fulton withdrew his motion
and the Hoggatt delegation was
seated without further opposition.
The action with regard to Alaska
is conceded as being in Taft's favor
and New Mexico has also been given
to the war secretary. Hitchcock is
now claiming 701 votes and election
on the llrst ballot. The committee's
figures give Taft 603 and he has won
every contest with the exception of
two district* in Virginia and one in
Ohio.
The committee adjourned today.
In view of the fact that the resolu
tions committee in in the hands of
Taft supporters, the southern states
led by Foraker are arranging to pre
sent their protests in open conven
tion. Asked if lie believes that the
convention will seat all the allotted
Taft delegates, Speaker Joseph Can
non shifted his cigar and said "Of
course."
John Hayes Hammond, the mining
engineer mentioned for vice-presi
dent, is in lite eity and is busily en
gaged in denying alleged interviews
in which In* is said to have predicted
himself as viee-president.
HITCHCOCK IS TO BE

elected Shaekleford as national com
mitteemen.
