NEW ONE
Candidate iShonp Takes
Another Position
James M. Shoup, one of the active
candidates for delegate to confess,
while in Whitehorse last week, accord
ing to the Whitehorse Star, says he
still favors self-government for Alaska
but believes this is not the proper time
to urge it. He says it would be defeated
if pressed at this tftne.
The Star says:
"Although strongly in favor of terri
torial government for Alaska, he (Mr.
Shoup) does not think that question
should be made an issue in '.he coming
campaign as he is of toe opinion that
the present unprecedented influx of
settlers in Alaska will make it neces
sary to subdivide the district by the
time the next census is taken and to
make an issue of the territorial ques
tion now might, he thinKs, defeat the
very object which ai' patriotioA askans
hot*? to attain."
ELDtR MAY COME

time ago on the Columbia river, has
