FOR DELEGATES FROM ALASKA
Short Term
A. P. SWINE FORD
Long farm
THOMAS CALE
THOMAS XALE
"1 would sooner go down to honor
able defeat than to make one pledge or
promise that would interfere in the
slightest degree with my doing my
whole duty to the people of Alaska. If
elected. I must be free to serve the
people with all my ability. If beaten 1 1
will try to take defeat like a man. I
will not accept victory at the price of
my conscience, or with any strings
fastened to me. The people are en
titled to a representative with no part
of him tied. If I am elected they shall
have it.''
In these simple words, Thomas Cale,
at the chamber of commerce rooms the
other night, gave an Insight into the
maimer of man he is, and the character
of a representative Alaska will have in
the tiOth congress.
ftThe declaration came naturally from
Mr. Cale. It was just what one would
expect to hear from him. He gave
utterance to the words as his kindly,
clear blue eyes, usually directed fixed'y
upon those with whom he is conversing,
were leveled at some unseen object in
the distance in that abstract manner
which indicates introspection. He was
communing with himseif and made
the ptomfse to his conscience more
than to his auditors and there was none
wbo questioned his sincerity.
It would be useless to add anything
to this except to say that the corpora
tions are which seeking to exploit
Alaska for their own use and benefit do
not want Mr. Cale as their represent
ative, They will decide the question
as to whom they will give their support
for the long term the minute they
make up their minds as to which of the
two party candidates there is most
chance of electing.
Thomas Cale is in the truest meaning
of the word the PEOPLE'S CANDI
DATE for the long term.

The campaign on the question of
joint statehood (or Arizona and New
Mexico is being waged with great in
terest. The law requires both terri
tories to vote in favor of the proposition
before it will oecome effective. It is
thought the vote of New Mexico will
be in the affirmative and that of Ari
zona in the negative, defeating the
proposition. A strong effort is being
made, however, to cause the tide of
sentiment to change in the latter
territory. President Roosevelt has
written letters to several of his friends
in Arizona in which he says he hopes
the proposition will carry.
Let the north end of Linn canal vote
as a unit a week from next Tuesday and
thus have a potent influence in Alaskan
affairs. If the community destroy
itself by dividing its strength, little at
tention will be paid to the town. Let
there be a majority of about 300 or 400
for our favorites and it will be known
th?t it were worth while to pay atten
tion when Skagway and Haines shall be
reached on the roll call.
An inexperienced delegate at Washi
ngton would be at the mercy of the
lobl-y. There is only one candidate for
the short term who has had experi
ence and who is prepared to defend
himself and the interests of the people,
and there will be no time between the
election and the convening of the short
session of congress in which for an
other to gain experience. Self-defense
demands the election of Gov. Swineford
for the short term.
Swineford and Cale are the candidates
who are making their campaigns in the
open. There are no strings to them.
They are bound to no self-seeking cor
porations. They represent no special
interest. They are free to do the right
thing.
Every one who can possibly do so
ihould make it a point to so adjust his
affairs that he can be at his residence
August 14, there to cast a vote at
first election.
Nelson, B. C., has reached the limit j
in one. direction. A faveliug silesman
was registering at a hotel there the
other day and paused long enough to
ask for tbe terms of the place. Upon
receiving the desired information he
fell dead. Heart failure was given as
the cause of his death. The shock was
too great for him.
