ISSUE BECOMING PLAIN
The declaration of J. M. Shoup,
(made at Seattle, the place where he
announced his change of heart on the
question of partisan politics in Alaska)
makes the issue plain, so far as he is
concerned at least. HE IS AGAINST
SELF-GOVERNMENT FOR ALAS
KA, and his election would indefinitely
delay the acquisition of our right to a
republican form of government. MR.
SHOUP IS THE CANDIDATE OF
THE TOKIES,
This declaration also makes another
point plain. It indicates the service to
which the tories of Alaska would pros
titute the republican party. They
would use the party epirit of those who
take pride in their adherence to the
political organization, of which Lincoln,
Blaine, McKinley and Roosevelt were
presidential candidates, for the purpose
of whipping them away from the ad
vocacy of a REPUBLICAN FORM OF
GOVERNMENT FOR ALASKA. The
Daily Alaskan believes they will fall.
Time is justifying the action of the
people of Skagway in signing the pe
tition requesting Governor Swineford
to become a candidate for delegate to
congress. There are only 10 weeks re
maining in which to make decisions
and conduct a campaign that is of vital
importance to Alaska. That time will
be used by those who are afraid of
trusting the people with the reins of
government in which to perfect an or
ganization for the election which is to
follow. It follows that those who be
lieve as do the people of Skagway,
that the Alaskan people should conduct
Alaskan affairs, must unite, that they
might act in unison. In the support of
Gov. Swineford for delegate to con
gress is there offered the most appropri
ate basis for that union. Gov. Swine
ford is known from one end of Alaska
to the other. His candidacy for dele
gate to congress would make the issue
clear cut and obviate much of the ne
cessity for a campaign of education.
