HOGGATT GIVEN CONGE.
At last Gov. Wilford B. lloggutt
I as been ordered to leave Washingtoa
l>. and a time limit was set on his
going. The news was welcome to all
loyal Alaskans. Uoggatt has consist
ently opposed the best interests of
Alaska and assumed a sort of direc
torship over our elected delegate.
This worked well enough with Cale,
but Wickersham is a man of differ
ent caliber and exactly one week af
ter he arrived in Washington, Hog
f.att was ordered to leave. Hoggatt.
with unparalelled assumption, stayed
several weeks more in the face of
this order. Wickersham forced the
issue, however, and now our chief ex
ecutive makes his reluctant exit
from the arena of national affairs.
Had he been given his conge long
before. Alaska would be better off.
Senator Cullom wants to increase
the presidential terui to six years.
In behalf of William Jennings Bryan
;uid Eugene Debs, we want to regis
ter a protest. To lengthen the term
\- ill decrease the number of times
that these gentlemen can be candi
dates. It's hardly fair.
