CAPT. A W. THOMAS, Ketchikan
U P. DAWtt, of Wr*#|*U,
Charles InKersoll, who to Join*
the speeohmakinj for the "Any-Par
tisan" party published the follow
ing In the Ju.??au Dispatch when he
acceptor the nomination on that
ticket
*1 hare a high admiration for
Mr Valentine and have many close
friends in htai party, and am not
impugning hi* pwd motives or po
litical Judgment. I am highly sen
sitive of the kind intention# to
wards me and the honor conferred
upon me. and deeply regret any ac
tion upon my part that may hay*
possibly placed me in a false atti
tude in this matter, but my beat
judgment dictates that to accept
the nomination upon the Progres
sive ticket of representative would
not come within the reading of the
trust reposed in me by my friends a
home, and 1 must refuse to accept
the same "
Mt, in the light of subsequent
events, Inrereoll's talk about "the
trust Imposed In me by my friends
at home is certainly amusing His
friends at home have turned him
down Kveryone of the delegates
who attended the coaventlon with
him from his own town of Ketchi
kan turned him down and wouldn't
even vote for him in the "Any-Par
tisan** convention, but repudiated
him and then asked Captain Thom
as to accept their support on the
Home Rule ticket. The delegates
to that convention went back to
Ketchikan and are today working
for the Home Rule ticket
Delegates were lead Into that con
vention by a big talk of "doing
away with old sores and getting
together for Alaska," bat when
they got there and found the con
vention was being dominated by the
same old crowd that has always
fought Wickersham and the Home
Rule party they bolted and would
have nothing to do wl'.h it,
*lr lngersoll admits that he did
not dare to openly support Wicker
sham during the last delegate elect
ion, because of unfortunate finan
cial entanglements with the Super
intendent of the Alaska Packers As
sociation in Southeastern Alaska,
but tm' will observe that he is not
the least bit afraid to openly sup
port the Anti tfomc Rul? crowd
There is a reason.
To vote for a party which is
hacked, influenced and dominated
by the Alaska Packer* and the
Tread well interest*, is an Insult to
Wickersham and a *tab at the vitals
of Home Rule.
Alaska cant afford to throw
down Wickernhani by electing hi*
rtifmlf* to the legislature The men
who wore foremost in dominating
tUt "Any-I?artisen" party *?? fopr
inost in supporting Gilmore and Orr
?ud all those * ho have opposed
home rule Stack thorn up on the
;K>lltioal ash heap, and elect men
who are patriotic enough to believe
the cititenship intelligent enough
for self gorrenment and who refuse
to truck with thaw who thluk other
jjjfcfc _ j 1^1
\\> do not think the rotor* of Al
aska hare so soon forgotten the
Jong, bitter fight against Shacklc
ford, that they will voto for the op
position to Home Rule masquerading

A leopard may change its name

The success of George F. Henley,
of Oawson, in maturing nheat in
the suburbs of Dawson, and of the
Pelly river grower* in producing
and threshing a large crop of oats
should attract attention far be
yond Yukon. The production of
ceraals means much to every laud.
If the cereal producing belt can be
crowded northward to this region,
It will mean a grsally increased as
set to Canada. It will mean also
that Yukon has far greater capabil
ities in self-maintenance than at
first suspected.
A region that has to import its
cereals and foodstuffs Is greatly
handicapped. One that can pro
duce all these articles Is indeed for
tunate
Yukon, although it may not pro
duce its own cereals, has the re
source# which yield the wealth with
which to buy the staff of life. But
if the cereals can be produced here
it means more w eal h kept at home,
and that is on<< great advantage in
the upbui'ding of a region
Those who hare looked circum
spectly on Canada and have scanned
her future have not forgotten to
look carefully at her northern limit
of cereal production. Now that
there is promise of the Yukon break
ing into the cereal growing class,
it is well worth while that the fed
eral government make a series of
practical tests in this territory. One
or more of the moat capable men
from up-to-date agricultural college
should be sent to Yukon to try out
the situation. The hardiest grains
from all countries of the subpolar
regions should be tested here.
The government owes It to Yu
kon as much as to any other part
of the Dominion to ascertain what
th? people willing to settle here can
hest produce from the soil
Success in grain growing in Yu
kon will mean success in turn hi
keeping herds, and in many other
phases of general activity that will
mark this as a region of homes and
render the efforts at northern em
pire building a greater triumph thaa
many ever dreamed ? Dawson New#
