Skagway is no longer a coast town.
The Alaskan declares its allegiance to
the doctrines of the interior and man
fully defends Fairbanks from the charge
of permitting unqualified voters to cast
tbelr ballots in the rect election?
Juneau Dispatch.
Poor, narrow soul! Of course Skag
way ts not a "coast town." Nor is it an
"interior town." It is an Alaskau
town.
The Dispatch confesses the sin which
will be the death of Juneau in so far as
influence in Alaskan affairs are con
cerned if the town does not purge itself.
It admits that it is sectional.
But the people of the remainder of
Southeastern Alaska understand what
means "sectionalism" in a Juneau "sen
timent moulder.-' It means JUNEAU,
nothing more. The interest of the
Dispatch in Southeastern Alaska is its
desire to have the remainder of the
section pull Juneau chestnuts trom the
fire.
The Daily Alaskan has but de
fended a representative of this dis
trict in congress? the man who divides
the honor of the highest, most exalted
and most honorable official station
within the district with only one man
{frank H. WaskeyV-from a maliciously
baseless and pettily envious attack.
Considered in the natrowest sense there
can be no sectionalism in that, for Tho
mas Cale is the chosen representative
of the people of Southeastern Alaska
as well as that as the remainder of the
district.
George Cotterill, who has been in
turn a republican, ' prohibitionist, pop
ulist, fusionists, democrat, middle-of
the-road populist, republican again, i
municipal ownership and workingman,
is a candidate for state senator oti the
democratic ticket at Seattle. While
he bas been serving all these various
parties, Mr. Cottrill has never forgot
ten to honor himsief. He bas been a
candidate before the people for the leg
islature, for mayor of Seattle and for
congress. He has been "spoken of" in
connection with nearly every office in
nearly every convention of nearly
every party in Seattle and the state of
Washington for the last dozen years.
He Is a wonder! But there is one thiag
that is always closely associated with
Mr. Cotterill, no matter in which party
he was serving for the nonce ?
DEFEAT. He has never been elected
to any office.

If the outcome of the New York mix
up should be the nomination of William
Sulzer for governor he would carry
Alaska? at least Southeastern Alaska.
However, while the wish in Alaska is
general that Mr, Sulzer might be '.he
recipient of any political honor which
bis ambition might crave, there
1* none but that recognize the loss it
would be to Alaska to have Mr. Sulzer
retire from congress. Mr. Sulzer
understands Alaska and Alaskan senti
ment* better than any man in con-1
gress? not even excepting the able
men w'.io make up the Washington del
egation.
Vice- President Fairbanks' candidacy
for the presidency has been officially
announced. The Indianapolis Star is
the chcien vihicle of President Roose
velt's running mate. This makes two
candidates in the race? Speaker Can
non's boom having been launched al
ready, If that railroad ownership
question does not split the democratic
party too much, the republicans will
have to do better than Fairbanks or
Cannon to win. The next president
will not be one of the old line machine
gang.
The Juneau press is hopelessly ad
dicted to the habit of misrepresention.
Whenever it is desired to oppose any
one who has taken an unassailable
position a Juneau paper will misrepre
sent the position and then assail the
misrepresen taxation. The Dispatch
has been freer from this malady than
some of the other papers down there
but toe habit seems to be contagious,
and it is no longer immune from the
unfortunate affliction.
Senators Foraker and Dick won out
against the ultra-administration crowd
| im the Ohio republican state
convention by about two to one.
Congressman liurton, of Cleveland,
while admitting his disappointment,
says the fight has but ^just begun.
He hopes to defeat the senators
two years from now and nominate
the state ticket.
The Saattle democrats endorse the
republican candidates forsuperior judge
and superintendent of schools. They
did this on the ground that the judici
ary and t{ie schools should be kept out
of politics and because the men who
were renominated by the republicans
had given satisfaction in ollioe.
So Jerome is trying to steal Hearst's
thunderl" He has declared for munici
pal ownership of public utilities. For
a long time he has been as seusation.
ally "yellow" in his line as have been
Hearst:s papers.
Just think of Koosevelt's being suc
ceeded by Cannon ur Fairbanks! No,
no! The people will never stand for
that. There is room for more republi
can presidential booms.
Did that close shave for Congress
man Littlerild have anything to do with
the president's order further extending
the eight-hour day?
