GOODWIN KEEPS HIS SECRET
Judge Wickersham Carry
ing Everything Before
Him at Nome? Crowd
Cheers While He Flays
Corson and Hoggatt? The
Betting Is All To The
Good For vv ickersham.
(Unit. J Press Telegraph-Cable Service.)
Fairbanks, Aug. t> ? Advices from Nome declare that
Wickersham addressed the largest audience ever brought
together in a hall at that place and that the audience
cheered him for an hour and a half while he Hayed Corson
as the representative of the corporations, the ordinance of
17S7 and Governor Hoggatt. Special trains were run from
the creeks and went to town loaded with miners.
It is certain that he will beat Corson two to one in the
Nome division. In the betting 011 the election, so far from
giving odds 011 Corson, Wickersham it the favorite at even
money against the field. Corson is selling two to One
against all competitors with Wickersham not counted.
The money wired from here was refused.
Paul Fisher, a miner, took up"Till the Corson money to
be found here.
I'. S. Commissioner Goodwin, who is on the stump
for Corson, is a brother-in-law of t Judge Reid. He still
refuses to L'ive the Wickersham committee the informa
0 *
tion asked for as to the names of th? judges of election
whom he himself appointed. Citizens have wired the at
torney general the fact and appealed to him for justice.
The marshal's office is very busy and declares an inten
tion of protecting every precinct in the division against
illegal voting.
After the rcjju ar session of the Klks
lodge tonight there will be an inform il
hop In honor of Ju?]<jp Gunnison and the
court people Dancing at 0:30.

N. L BURTON FOR WICKERSHAM
I
"Of course I am for Wlckersham for
delegate to congress," said Judge Itur
Um, well known Juneau lawyer and
memaer of the firm of Winn & Uarlon.
"I have known Judge Wlckei>barn
many yearn? intimately acquainted with
him. I am a republican but I am voting
forjudge WicVershara because I doom
hitn the man for tftt> place. I think be
would be the ideal representative from
Alaska for every reason that might be
advanced in a canvafsof essentivi quali
ties. He has traveled all over the dis
trict and knows lis needs better than
any other man that 1 can call to mind,
tic knows ihcra from having the ills we
arc heir to up here rehearsed before
him whiie he was on the bench. Ho
h:s the ability to tell the story of our
needs and to frame the legislation
necessary to correct them. He has
energy and ambition. I have practiced
before Judge Wii'kersham in Fairbanks
nnd Juneau and know bin ch?rac'er.
"Ii will be interesting to note that
Thomas Nowell, miner, of Juneau, who
lost a most im|iortant cane by a judg
ment rendered by Judge Wicketsham?
the famous Berners Ujy ca?o ? is one of
:be most active and staunoh supporters
of Judge Wickersham It is rather
efreshicg to note this fact since about
.be only enemies ibe judge has up here
are those wbo lost cases in his court,
and several of theso have been most
vindictive. I ul here Is one who lost
: the last hope he had of winning an im
|K>riant case by a judgement of Judge
\ Wickersham and yet who recognizes
his bonesty and ability to auch extqpt
that he is outspoken in his favor. I am
satisfied that Juneau will go for Wick
ersham by a substantial majority. Ju
neau appreciates what he has done f> r
this division." Juiig<* Hurtou left f?-r
Juneau today.

Perhaps you I .vc not ?een thi cur
