?em* other* we may all recall to
mind
The law-* official to pat hi* foot

J K Willi* Mr. Wlllts ha* grant
?>1 interview* with the newupaper*
all the war from Fairbanks to Ju
neau Ktw at I<*w*w he bad to
break into print and tell them that
h?- bad rrconim. nded that the sub
port at Pair barks be not granted
At Juneau be said that the sab-port
idea was but the chattering of one
iM>w?|wpfr. and that he only sow on
cian mho ij wat*J it whil?- in Fair
banks
No* it i* xm probable that Mr. j
Willis saw but one man who advo
1
ra:??d it He only associated with i
the nunifr? of the N. C company'
and other corporations who are very
naturally opposing everything that
i* in the Interest of the consumer*
Had he r1sit?! the Fairbanks Com
mercial club he would hare seen a
very large body of earnest business
men unanimously asking for the sub
port He would have found that
they had wired the winrtt to the
department at Washington, he would
have found the newspaper* there aak
iug for It and a urout number of the
people all orrr the Interior asking
for It The White Pan* railroad Is
asking for It for the purpoae of j>HVr
ling in a competing ;ran*portoli?m
Hue Out deler*'?\ Jamea W1cfc?r
sham Is asking for it, nnd In #{iitt
of Willis and the corporation*, he
will get It.
ltuj Willis has tried the whole
e*se in the newsjtapers and decided
?Mitts: the p?"opl<*, even before the
department at Washington has said
any thing about it Willis has road*
a personal matter out of the affair
and 1?* petty politics enter Into a
subject which concerns all Of Alas
a. He did not even havko the cour
tesy and judgment to wait for a de
cision of his superiors at Washing
ton before he entered into a news
paper discussion of the case It
has been within the past week that
word has been received in Skafrway
from Secretary McVegh which
brines the information that no de
cision has been made in the case,
yet long ago. Willis has decided it
in the newspapers
Hon. James Wickersham when
shown the Willis decision in Dawaon
said: "Y?*s. the recommendation of
Mr Willis in this matter goes, but
not later than March 4 next Am
erica will have a different lineup
then Taft cannot be reflected un
der any circumstances. The people
of Fairbanks want an open port, an
should have it. and it is but a mat
ter of tim;> until they get It."
