j To THE PEOPLE OF THE DISTRICT OF ALASKA:
I beg to submit my name to your consideration as a
candidate for the nomination for Delegate to Congress, and
if in the course of events you should choose to elect me as
such delegate I pledge myself to the people of Alaska to
honestly and faithfully serve them, to protect their inter
ests, and to do all that in my power lies to aid in the devel
opment of Alaska, and the promotion of the cause of Home!
Rule. I hold that in the hands of a man entirely trust- [
worthy this delegateship is but the stepping stone toward
securing for the people of Alaska that which is the birth
right of every American citizen ? self-government.
I am ax Alaskax. My home is here, my interests are
here, and here my children have been reared and educated
to the extent that our educational system reaches, which
system should be extended in its scope by federal endow
ment. Here in Alaska I expect to live and die.
No party lines confiue or limit my adherence to the
cause of progress, equal rights and a "square deal'' for
Alaska, and if I am chosen as Alaska's representative to
congress I pledge myself that no special privileged class
shall control me. I will at all times endeavor to protect and
aid the honest miner and actual settler.
Respectfully submitted,
A. F. WILDT.
