in his resignation to President

Nome, Alaska. July 10? (Special
correapondence to the Daily Alas
kan)- The strength of Candidate
Oilmore In Nome Ilea In the federal
vote and the ao railed "400" of
thla rltjr. but the people her* are
now understanding Oilmore's trait
orous action in getting the nomin
ation on a ticket backed bf Shackle
ford and hla following. Thejr feel
he would not be a safe man to
truat In honeatly taking care of
the duties which would involve up
on a congreaaman 5000 mile* from
a struggling and neceaaarily t mat
ing community. Sad would be the
day when the "double-cross Kid"
would be elected to congress to
represent the "interests" which
are looking anxiously to ({obble up
the cream of our adopted home, to
the everlasting detriment of the
pioneer and his posterity.
W'e have b*?i protected so far
from the onalaughs of the enemy
by our worthy delegate James
H'ickershajn.
I have no knowledge of the po
litical situation in other districts,
but the Second division is safe for
Wickersham, and as the campaign
proceeds he keeps winning In
strength, so I shall be diaappolnt
<*d if then- is not a general statn
}?ede for the present delegate.
In conversation with the people
of Nome the general cry is "You
ran t beat Wicketsham."
