Special Dlipklcb (o The Dally AUslcan
Fairbanks, July 22 ? The Daily News of this city sold
out to the Hoggatt interests on Saturday last. Nhe News
has always been a consistent friend of Judge Wickersham
and fought for him against all opposition manifested while
he waii on the bench. The first issue following the sale ap
peared 011 Sunday when the front page was devoted to the
display of fake telegrams dated from all parts of Alaska
lauding Corson. One of these fake dispatches purporting
to come from Nome fell into the hands of the Wickersham
committee. It was written in Harry Steel's handwriting,
Harry Steel being Corson's secretary. The telegram was
placarded and framed and hung up in the window of a
business house on Sunday the day of publication. This
had the effect of discrediting the entire issue of the Corson
paper. Wickersham was the News' favorite in this cam
paign and it tried hard to support him, but it h*s been in
financial difficulty for a long time aud n?eded the money.
Wickersham is shown to be the most popular candidate ever
before the people of Alaska.
The Fairbanks band refused to lend its aid to the Cor
son interest last night iu an effort to trump up a so-called
open-air meeting. This is only one indication of the feel
ing toward Corson here. Wickersham is supported by the
Tribune and the Miner and is received with enthusiasm
everywhere. Iu the betting odds are given on Wickersham
against the field.
CORSON BUTS THE NEWS
Fairbanks, July 22 ? It developed today that Corson
has bought the News, the evening daily, outright, and has
made Harry St-el, his secretary, manager. Steel is a
newspaper man aud was one of the founders of the Dawson
News, and later of the Nome News.
Fairbanks, July 22 ? Corson influences are hard at work
in an effort to induce Cale to come back into the race. It
is clearly a piece of Hoggatt jobbery. Wickersham is grow
ing stronger daily and is in the fight to a finish. There is
nothing here but Wickersham and nothing can defeat him
but jobbery.
