has been mutually agreeable to the
people of this city and to himself.
Mr. Cale has impressed Skagwayans '
with his sincerity, the earnestness of
his purpose and his ability, and they
have given evidence of their apprecia
tion of that by assurance of support
such as could not but impress itself
upon the candidate and be pleasing to
him. ?
The informal reception at the
Chamber of Commerce rooms last night
was well attended, and to those who
attended Mr. Cale explaiued his po
sition on the issues of the day. He said
he is ..emphatically in favor of self
government and convinced that the ills I
from which the district suffers can
never be cured until the people bave
coutrol of the making of their own
laws. He says the desire for freedom,
liberty, self-government? all synon
ims? is implanted in the breast of
every worthy member of the human
race. The candidate referred jocular
ly to the report that he lias been styled J i
an anarchist. He assures the people!
that capital should he protected and en- |
couraged fo come to Alaska. lie said ! i
that capital will never come here in
adequate quantities until it is protect- i
ed by Alaskan made laws. He said,
further, that while self-government is
his remedy for the ills which confront
the district, if he finds it impossible to
secure that he will urge upon congress
such remedial legislation as the con
ditions may require. He asks that all
the people, in the event of his election,
make it a point to inform him of their
ideas.
At the close of the meeting Phil
Abrahams, on behalf of those present
extended thanks to Mr. Cale for his
frankness in answering all questions
that were put to him and in explaining I
hi- position so clearly on Alaskan <
matters.
Mr. Cale expressed bis thanks at the
meeting last night for the manner of ,
bis treatment by the people of'Skag- i

SPLIT OPEN
Iowa Reimblicans Are Id
Fatal Quarrel
[Special Dispatch to Daily AlaskaQ
Dts Moines, July 31? The republican
convention has split apart and is ir
reparably divided. There will probably
t>e two tickets in the field, each claim
ing to be regular. The bone of conten
tion is the governorship and the tariff
question. The strength of Gov. Cum
mins, candidate for re-nomination on a
platform favoring tariff reform, and
Representative George D. Perkinfc,
representing the "stand patters" on the
tariff question, is about equal. The
balance of power laid with the contest
ing delegations. The fight is very bitter
and today it seems that two tickets are
inevitable.
