TO THE VOTERS OF ALASKA:
In submitting mysetf as a candidate for the office of Alaska
Delegate, I desire to set before you the main facts concerning my
qualifications and the principles for which S stand in seeking your
suffrage, as follows:
PLATFORM
1st.—I have lived in Ketchikan for a period of seven years
and have a wife and three children.
2nd.—I have served the public of this city for a period of two
years as principal of the Ketchikan Public Schools.
During the remainder of my residence in Ketchikan have
followed the occupations of fisherman and carpenter.
During the period of American war participancy, I served as
a “Four Minute Man.’
3rd.—During my residence in Alaska I have never at any
time actively affiliated with any political party, and am beholden
to neither political groups or individuals.
4th.—The first principle of the platform upon which I seek
your suffrage is opposition to ring rule with its corrupt and in
efficient employees. •'
5th.—I am unqualifiedly in favor of instituting the Eight
Hour Day for labor in Alaska and the elevation of Labor to its
proper sphere. I am also an advocate of the principle that the
settlement of all industrial disputes should be on the basis of the
greatest good to the greatest number.
6th.—I stand for the completion of the government railroad
in Alaska, by the government, under efficient management.
7th.—I believe that the present transportation situation is the
result of conditions which may be altered and corrected by a
strict governmental inspection of steamship rates and services.
To the support of these views and principles I pledge myself,
as well as to all other services of benefit to the Territory and its
citizens.
Signed: J. L. Jones

Senator Henry Cabot Lodge if* do
ing his bit to add to the gaiety of na
tions. It is iitting that the man who
•opposed the enfranchisement of wo-,
men should have gravely introduced
in the “greatest deliberative body
earth” a bill requiring every trades
man who happened to carry in stock
t& jackknife or a fiddlestr ng made in
Germany to post on his outer door,
and in other couspictous places a
statement that tho said tradesman
deals in German made goods. This
it seems is necessary in order that
members of the American Defense So.
ciety, and other superpatriots, may
not unwittingly defile themselves by
coming in contact with Hun made
goods, it had !>een supposed when
first, announced that the bill in ques
tion was tf joke, introduced for the
purpose of reviving our worn spirit*.
Gat since the head of the Defense So
ciety haa telegraphed his approval
cue is in doubt. It is a Joke, true
enbugh. a most stupendous joke, but
the woman hating Senatqr from
Massachuetts has not yet seen the
point. Not so the club friends of a
certain New York dealer—shall we
say In books and stationary— who
are laughing at the story of his no- j
r.'ces to his patrons that as a good
American citizen he proposes to sell
no German goods. After which he
had his stock overhauled to remove
the German stamps and imprints,
and have them replaced by Amert
Pan marks. It is hard on the morals
of the clerks who were cautioned not
to "give him away.” But doubtless
such things must bo after all great
wars. On : recalls how the Rlue an 1
Grey of our Civil War used to fra
ternize. while the politicians waved
the “bloody shirt”. But we must bej
patient. Tee strain is much har i-r !
i n those 'vhti stay at nomo. The men
who go to the front fight to a finish
and quit ;l>ut those who stay at home
and talk about it do not begin to
fight till the war is over. Then they
show their mettle.
