MARTIN OLSON of IV>ugl*a
CAPT A \V. THOMAS, Ketchikan
L P. DAWKS, of WlM|l>
Chart** Ingersoll, the corporation
!????? candidate for the legislature
f> om Ketchikan. is doing the ?pwh
making for the 'Non-Partisan" par
ty Owr render* are entitled to
know something about Mr. Inger
soll's i\cord and his political stabil
ity.
Ingersoll until within the past 2
yr*r*. has supported Wtckersham
and IW Homo Rule cause It was
presumed he would do so during
the last con teat, and in consequent*
he w as asked to take part in the
campaign for home rule, but he
dared not do so because the corpor
ations had a mortgage on every
thing he owned, and they controll
ed him
Here is the true story, all abso
lutely verified by the editor of this
paper, which is taken from an edi
torial in the Alaska Sunday Tost
On Sept. 2$ last, Kmery Valen
tine of Juneau received a fetter
from Ingersoll in which be said:
"I am so involved financially that
1 do not dare enter the political
field this year. ? ? ? My experience
in the last campaign has put the
fear of Cod in me."
It is now known that Charles K.
Ingersoll owes J R Heckman. who
is the Alaska Parkers Association
in Southeastern Alaska. $8000 on
a mortgage on his hotel- in Ketchi
kan.
On Oct, i, Charles K. Ingersoll
sent this cablegram to Kmery Valen
tine:
Non-partisan caucus elected me
delegate instructed strong fight for
me this spontaneous against Hunt
slate and although myself absent
and publicly announced not in poli
tics Will your convention endorse
Confidential."
Valentine repiieo
"Will you accept nomination for
Ketchikan district and help us in
Heetion? If so wire proxies We
will ??oat your delegate and elect
yo? Convention meets tomorrow
Answer "
lngersoll replied:
"Rattle here is non-partisan All
parties against Socialists'*
Notwithstanding all this, the
Progressive party believed in Inger
soll. not knowing what was the un
seen string
Ingersoll came to Juneau, turned
over b> Hock man, the a^ent of the
Alaska Packers, to Gunnison, the
attorney for the Alaska transporta
tion combine, and the attorney for
the Alaska Packers, as a dog. led
hjr a chain, is turned over from
one master to another. And, help
lessly, at the bidding of his master.
Ingersoll declined the tendered Pro
gressive nomination he had sought
It is not contended that this debt
is cancelled in return for political
services But it Is contended he was
controlled through his debt The
statement made by Ineersoli that
he had been indorsed by the pri
mary Is untrue A resolution to
endorse him was defeated there
No one can see the unseen strings
attached to business and profession
al men. which the bic interests can
pull when the occasaion requires
Not that every business and profes
sional roan is ?o at th? mercy of
the masters, but no one can see the
unseen strlnjcs until they are pulled
sometime* not then
We hope the voters ot thta dis
trict will carefully re-read the
abore article and then aak them
selves If it Is to their Interacts to
vote for a roan who acknowledges
that he is under the domination of
the biit Interests. Ingersoll wired a
lie when he said that the Ketchikan
convention had endorsed him. H*
tried to get on both parties by ask
ing the endorsement of the Home
Rule party. He Is shifty, uncertain
and untruthful as his telegrams
prove If elected to the legislature
he will not dars to vote for the
ibolltton of the fish trap because
the superintendent of the Alaska
Packers owns him by his own ad
mission That is the man who Is
the mouthpiece of the "Non-Parti
san" party
Speaking In advocacy of govern
ment aid In the matter of railway
building to open and develop new
countries, Mr. A. T. Budd, the min
ing man, whoee home Is in Toronto,
told the Seward Gateway how the
Canadian government, as well as
certain provinces in that big north
ern country, were achieving splen
did results in thta direction
Canada, said Mr. Rudd, is the
pioneer in the way of aiding and
building railway systems to develop
new regions, and It has found the
policy highly profitable, from a fi
nancial standpoint, as well tu ad
ding new wealth In the way of re
sources-such as agricultural, tim
ber and mineral ? to the country as
a whole.
Mr. Budd cites the direct benefits
received by Ontario province in the
building of what is known as the
Temiskiming * Northern Ontario
railway system This road was
built and is operated by a govern
ment commission consisting of three
members It starts at Toronto and
extends northward two hundred
miles to Cochrane, Ontario, a di
visional point on the Grand Trunk
system A branch from this road
taps the rich Porcupine gold camp
Another branch enters the Toronto
river copper field. The system pays
a good Interest on the bonds sold
to raise money with which to build
it; pays operating and maintenance
expenses, and every six months
passes over to the province the
sum of llOrt.OOO, representing the
profit*
It should he onflMitood mmi mien
this system was projected by the
province of Ontario the country It
proposed to penetrate was nothing
byt a bleak, barren wilderness, al
most wholl* uninhabited. Now there
are prosperous settlements, support
ed by rich agricultural regions;
mining camps of great wealth, and
the lumber industry Is a big one.
A blacksmith employed by a con
tractor on the line, when it was
building, found a mineral discovery
which was the necleus of the great
Cobalt mining camp. Other employ
es found the Toronto river and
South Ix>rralne copper fields.
The Ontario road taps a country
almost similar, so far as climatic
conditions are concerned, as the
Matanuska and Susltna valleys. The
first hundred miles is through a
region about as mountainous as the
Kenai peninsula.
The Dominion of Canada has
built a road from Montreal to Hall
fax, a distance of one thousand
milea. It is known as the Inter
Colonial svstem. The dominion is
also now engaged In constructing a
system from Superior Junction to
Moncton, N. R., a distance of two
thousand miles It will cost, when
competed. $208,000,000, The sys
tem will be leased to the people who
are building the Grand Trunk rail
way from Superior Junction to
Prince Rupert, H. C.. thus making
a complete transcontinental system.

THE DRUGGIST
tered Into an agreement with the
Grand Trunk people. It stipulated
that the railway system should be
at least two hundred and fifty miles
further north than any other exist
ing railway system. It Is to be
constructed primarily for the de
velopment of a wholly undeveloped
section of country.
It is the opinion of Mr. Iludd
that the United Stati?s should very
seriously consider the question o(
government aided railways to this
territory. Alaska Is a country of
vast latent w-ealth in mineral, as
well as agricultural possibilities. Th?
climatic conditions are no more
regorous than those existing In
northern Canada a country which
is now blossoming as the ros? due
to the government's aid in building
railway lines
