MR. M'GRATH MAKES STATE
MENT
In toother column is an article by
Luke McGrath, chairman of the com
mittee representing the men at the
While f'jfcsts shops who walked out two
or three weeks ago on account of a fail
ure to get a '20 per cent, raise in wages
which the; had demanded. Mr. Mc
Grath presents the case from the side
of the men. The article was written
in response to a InTltation extended to
Mr. MoGratb and other* of the men at
the 'time of the walk out, when the
Daily Alaskan informed them that it
would be pleased to publish anything
they had to jay, and would give pub
licity to the progreaa of the strike from
day to day as they viewed it, if they
would but keep it informed. This offer
sr request was frequently renewed.
Tuesday was the second time the
people of Skacway have given Martin
Conway a most emphatic demonstration
of their approval. He ran for city
councilman at the municipal election
in 1901 and received the largest vote of
anv man who was a candidate. Last
Tuesday he received more than 70 per
cent, of the ballots cast, setting more
votes tbin any man who was not a
candidate on both tickets.
Mr. Harriman will probably discover
that the peopl? are more concerned
over the fact that President Roosevelt
is right now than they are over the
fact that he might have been wrong In
>904. Whether the president has done
wrong or not is not now so important
as is the fact that good Is coming from
his administration.
The Minnesota state supreme eo-irt
decided that the state railroad commis
sion cannot prevent the issue of 166,000
000 bonds by Hill for the purpose of
laying new track It is ssid that th;*
guarantees a double track for the Great
Northern railroad for Its entire length.
In buying a residence in this city and
in deciding to spend a portion, at least,
of each summer here B. M. Behrends
pays the Sicagway ollmate a compli
ment?and the compliment is by one
who knows.
Well, Sullivan's control of the Illin
ois Democratic party would not mean
to much after all. The Democrats can
never hope to carry that state ^anyhow.
Ed. Harriman bad better look a little
outj and keep an eye open. That
big stick has room on it for another
uotcb.
