There is no doubt in the world that
the big corporations that have served
in the capacity of owneis anil propri
etors of Alaska for so many years will
fight hard to maintain that relationship
to the district by the election of a del
egate to Washington who will repre
sent them rather than the people.
This is the thing that the voter him
self must prevent. If the delegate who
goes to Washington next winter does
not do the things we would have him
uo, or persisteatly does the things we
would not have him do, the voter has
oniy himself to blame. It is up to the
citizens of Alaska themselves to choose
which of their number shall go to
Washington. They should know their
man? choose one that they do know will
keep faith with them to the end.
Now we all have in mind the famous
Seattle convention, and how it made a
platform ami choese delegates to go to
Washington to advocate there the
thing set forth in that platform as most
desired. And we all remember that
no sooner had the sea! of the convention
been set upon the platform, and the men
selected to advocate it than one of them
blatantly declared in the public prints
that he was no belierer in the leading
tenet of the platform, and would not atl
vocate it. He set up his reasons too
set up his individual wisdom against
that of the convention, his employer.
The nan c of the delegate was Richard
Kyan and the article of faith referred
to was the fundamental one of terri
torial government.
Mr. Ry.-.n is a candidate for the nom
ination before the republican conven
tion at Ju ieau, but this reminder has
no refereLce to that fact, for the con
vention will have so little etTect upon
the results next month that it is hard
ly worth considering. It is to the vot
ers at large that it is addressed. The
voter* should see to it that their ballot
is counted for a man who will meet
their desires in all matters as well as
this most important one? a man who
will represent all the people of AlasUa
and the>r best asDirations. Former Gov
Swlreford has been tested these many
yeaisand never has he been at fault.
NOT ADVOCATING SHOUP
It wou'd seem that the Valdez News
is not an enthusiastic advocate for
Marshal Shoup for the delegateship. i
In a recent issue it says:
"!t cow appear* that Marshal J. M.
Shonp ar.d ex-Uovernor A. 1*. Swine
ford will be tht only candidates from
Southeastern Alaska for the position
of clelf <;ate to congress. It is said that
Shoup has practically a cinch on the
nomination at the republican conven
tion. He has crawfished on th6 ques
tion of territorial government and now
goes on record as being opposed to it
thourh during the past several years
he has by public speech and through
the j iess declared that he favored a
home government for Alaska.
"It is generally believed and under
stood that Shoup is looking to the cor- 1
pora on interests to elect him rather
than the whole people of Alaska. He
's sad to have reached an agreement
with the Nome corporations on the
matter and they have guaranteed their
support both at the convention and the
election if Shoup will run on a platform
of their making. That he intends to
do this is evidenced by his switch cn
the popular home government proposi
tion."
"Those who favor a non-partisan
campaign and the election of a delegate
on his merits rather than because be
belongs to a political tarty are taking
little interest in the conventions that
have been called but instead are looking
around for the best man. Gov. Swine
ford has announced his candidacy for
the short term and will receive a sub
stantial support from the territorialists
in each of the divisions. If information
now at hand is correct it is likely that
Sirineford will also receive the demo
cratic vote. Leading democrats in the
southeastern part of the district are
said to be of the opinion that no candi
date will he named at the democratic
convention to be held at Juneau, but
that an independent candidate will be
endorsed. It is believed Swineford will
be the man." ? Valdez News.

JOHN L. WILSON RETIRES
John L. Wilson's retirement from
politics in the state of Washington as
announced by him at Tacoma W ednesday
is calculated to mark an epoch in the
history of that state. Former Senator
Wilson has been a factor in the politics
of Washington over a period covered
by the memory of man. There is do
doubt that he has had influence upon
results there in nearly every slate
election. He was elected and served as
senator one term and has been a candi
date for a return at every election since
that time. He has been a thorn in the
flesh of and an irritation to all other
aspirants? but as for himself he has
never really stood the ghost of a show
of re-election. Had he limited his in
nouncement, therefore, at the big state
banquet of republicans, to the declar
ation that he would retire from poliiics
it would have been accepted not only as
interesting but important? if true.
When, however, he adds that he wiil
not accept any office in the future he
injects into a serious matter that ele
ment that makes men laugh.
Nome, or the Seward penisula, has
no dearth of men with ambitions to
represent Alaska at Washington. So
far as heard from there are Richard
Ryan, Dr. Cabell Whitehead, Judge
Muraneand Frank H. Waskey. And
this whole big district is only entitled
to one delegate.
Mr. Torn Taggart refuses to acswer
questions touching the trench Lick I
gambling casino of which he is alleged
to be proprietor. It is one way of
pleading guilty.
DOIW EXPERIMENT
Yon Will Mak? No MUtake if You
Follow This Man's Advice
Never neglect your kidcevs.
If you have pain in the back, urinary
disorders, dizziness and nervousi-iess,
it's time to act and no time to experi
ment. These aie all symptoms of Kid
ney trouble, ana you should seek a re
medy which is known to cure the kid
neys.
Doan's Kidney Pills is the remedy to
use. It has cured many stubborn cases.
No need to experiment.
A. M. Buck, a painter, living corner
of Ninth and Maple Streets, North
Vakima, Wash., says: "I cannot speak
too highly of that wonderful remedy,
Moan's Kidney IMls. My experience
with kidney trouble dates back to the
early put of the year. 1894, when 1 had
a siege of ttie grip, which left my kid
neys in a very disordered condition.
I doctored a great deal and took treat
ment from one of the leading physicians
of St. I'aul. Minn,, for three mouths,
but only received a temporary relief.
The pain was in the small of my back
and was so bad I could not stoop or
straighten up without torture. After
coming out here the complaint still
clung to until a friend advised me to try
Doan's Kidney Pills. I did not p*y
much attention to bis advice at the
t>me because I bad used so many things
that I had about lost faith in medicines,
but when 1 saw them advertised last
summer, as I was badly in need of some
thing to relieve the pain, I tried a box.
It gave me so much relief that I bought
more and continued until I took live
boxes. They certainly did me an im
mense amount of good, and I have no
hesitation in recommending them to
anyone suffering from any ailment per
taining to the kidneys."
