.. AN OPEN LETTER PROM
GEORGE W. ALBRECHT
ri To the Republicans of Alaska:
“1 am a strong party man. I be
lieve that the existence of two par
i ties, and th eabsence of more than
two, is essential to the success of
popular government.” This is from
; a very recent article by Chief Justice
Taft, and voices my ow nbelief pre
i cisely.
And through the party organization
i. and team-work is the only way to ac
i "omplish anything. A horse may be
strong and willing, hut if it will not
\ work with its team-mate it is worth
less, in a four-horse hitch-up.
And this principle applies when con
e 3idering the qualifications of ea:h and
i every candidate in the forthcoming
1 primary.
While not at the head of the ticket
t the leislative positions are, perhaps,
i the most important, certainly so from
the point of harmoniously working to
; gather for the good of all.
In the Fourth Division there are
i no complications, it simply being a
j matter of which four out of five good
t men shall survive; but in some, or all,
i of the other divisions there are candi
* dates filed as Republicans who under
no circumstances ever acted with the
, party organization, in matters of leg
; islation. These candidates should be
i. ruthlessly eliminated, and men of
known reliability and stability should
1 he chosen.
iftSls
The Delegate to Congress and the
i members of the Territorial Legisla
ture should work together. If you
i believe this to be true, then there is
really but one name before you—Dan
; Sutherland.
Scan every office and every candi
• < date, and study out just what it all
means in terms of organization, team
\ work and results. Ability is a good
^ thing, but worthless if not coupled up
\ with reliability and stability. Great
i effort amounts to nothing if not usa
._ ble, and is worse than nothing if mis
< directed.
For the purely political positions of
< delegates and alternates to the Repub
. tican national convention, the only
, names which should be considered are
t William H. Chase and James Wicker
: sham for delegates, and Jacob B.
' Gottstein and William D. Grant for
{ alternates. This for the very simple
but for powerful reason that these
these men represent the Republican
party, and not individual ambition or
Creed, and are the only ones endorsed
i by any Republican organization.
Any man who aspires to be Na
H 1 tional Committeeman ought to be
|gg i enough of a strict party man that he
will support the nominees of his
1 party; in fact in his declaration of
candidacy he swears that he will do
• this very thing; and yet, in the No
„ Vember, 1926, election Captain La
»; _
throp spent time and money against
the part ynominec and in. an effort to
elect Tom Marquam over Dan Suther
land; to try to elect a renegade whose
political backing was made up of
mugwumps, so called independents
and Democrats. The only reason Cap
tain Lathrop is in the field is that
certain parties desire his election for
the purpose of using him to offset the
influence of the Delegate to Congress
in matters of political patronage. A
vote for Lathrop is an injury to Suth
erland and to the entire Republican
party.
If I am elected National Comniit
; teeman I shali not rest until the on
j tire Territory is completely organized,
so that each locality may handle its
own political affairs, and as 1 have
often stated, shall always heed the
; counsel of those who have a right to
; speak.
j 1 shall not grasp at any power not
mine by right, nor shall I ever evade
any responsibility that I ought to as
j sume. I am not and never shall be
j either an autocrat or a coward.
i My candidacy is endorsed by every
; Republican organization in the Terri
' tory, with the possible exception of
the Second division, as to which we
are not yet advised.
In our country a man s greatest
privilege and highest duty is in the
exercise of his elective franchise. Do
not waste your privilege nor fail in
your duty; go to the polls on April
; 24th, and VOTE.
1 Yours for Organization, Team
work and Victory.
