That eleventh hour telegram p"1'-j
porting tQ come from president i
Woodrow Wilson, and being posted |
around town by a local democratic
politician, ia which Mr. Wilson is i
represented as sending bis greet- I
lugs to Mr. Bunnell and expressing :
an earnest hope that that gentleman j
would be sent to his (th© presi
dent's) support by th# people of
Alaska, ia plainly of the "hauti
picked" yariety, and ia being used |
for the purpose of blinding the j
eye» of honest voters, with a hope
that they may be persuaded to re- j
nounce a tried and true friend, |
and fearless advocate of their |
rights for oue who, however great
hi« ability, is still among the list
Of untried, where from all appear- i
Huctjj he is likely to remain for
the next two years at least.
Wq draw the attention of ouri
readers to the two following tele
£Tams received by the «Dailv Alas
kan Saturday too late for publi
cation and also refer you to two
others which appeared in our adver
tising columns on the same day:
Juneau, AJeska, Oct. 31, 1914.
Alaskan, Skaagway:—
Z. R. Cheney, democratic nation
al committeeman, received a tele
gram from Thomas J. Pence, sec
retary democratic congressional
committee, saying, "President has
wired Bunuell telegram eudorsing
him."'

(You will please note that the
Umpire does not take any res
ponsibility upon itself for tke above
information, nor does it say that
thg news is authentic.)
Valdez, Oct. 31, IS 14.
Alaskan, Skagway:—
Charles E. Bunnell, the regular
democratic candidate for~congress, J
received the following message this
evening from President Wilson:
•"White House, Washington, D. C. '
"Chas. E. Bunnell,
"Valdez, Alaska;—
"May I not upon the eve of el
ection send you my greetinas and
express my earnest hope that you
will be sent to my support by the
people of your territory?
"(Signature) WOODROW WILSOX.'
Valdez Prospector.
Mow while we have no doubts as
to the good faith of either of the
above papers in forwarding this
matter as genuine items of »o\ys,
we do have very serious doubts as
to the authenticity of their sources
of information.
Does it seem reasonable to any
thinking man or woman, with
the strenuous fight that has been
going on in Alaska ever since Mr.
Bunnell was nominated at Skagway
convention several months ago,
and the reiterated appeals of the
democratic party organs through
out the territory for his support j
on political ground alone, that j
President Wilson would fail to send j
his endorsement of Mr. Bunnell un
til the last minute if he is really '
so anxious for his election?
These politicaal tricks have been |
"put over" too often on the peo- j
pie of1 .Skagway for them to take
any stock iu the one t-hat is now !
being presented to them from a

BIT WEAK TO PERFORM
Prom the Juneau Dispatch, Oct.
29th.; it must be very apparent
to every close observer that the
Juneau democratic club is excep
tionally strong on promises but
somewhat weak on performances.
lu. the legislative ticket fathered
by the local Tammany ring, It asks
support "Because they will endeav
or to Uavj the Alaska insane car
ed for in the territory."
Dr. Goddard at Sitka offered a
bid for the care of the Alaska in
sane lower than that put forth by
the Portland sanitarium. The Dis
patch took up the fight for Alaska,
and was all alone, other than the
support given by some citizens of
Juneau individually. What was th
democratic club doing then? With
a favorable administration so anx
ious to assist Alaska, and with a
democratic club so close to Presi
dent Wilson as the ring organ
claims, why did not the club got
busy? Delegate Wickereham did all
he could for Alaska, but the Dr.
uoe comDinauon provea too su-oug.
About all the democratic club in
Juneau has done so far is to try
and get favorites placed in office
and to dictate appointments and
form a close corporation in order
to carry on the spoils system. Its
promises are not worth the paper
they are written upon, judged b-v
Ltg actions.
