Gov. Brady... Hands Bunch.
To The “Learned Jub&£
v »> *» r k
Governor Brady in a .recent interview
published Hi the Sitka Cablegram, -says
among other things :
**As far as Wickersham’s failure to
>v ' *et confirmedis concerned, that is his
- own -fault. At the time the senatorial
pan^jTwamiii-Alaskar Wfckershanrtdld
theon embers of 'it what: a great -. need
theie wad for a fourth judicial district.
Hisr arguments* were so good and- his
reasoning so sound that the committee
haddiis remarks taken down,by a sten
ographer. .Later Wicker sham visited
Washington and practically drafted the
bill {providing for the additional judicial
district. "'
* ‘The bitt went.Jjefore the senate, ju
diciary ccunmiUee.and.was championed
by Senatog Ndlson.: Wickershaur.went
to New! York. You can imagine the
surprise of the committee when he op
posed the -bill upon his. return, to Wash
ington. Acting, .upon . his: suggestion
the&ill had been drafted, and then ho
turns abound -and denies the necessi ty
r for itl.rThe situation was decidedly em...
baomssing for Senator Nelson and his'
^ confreres.^ j
“When Wiekersham’s . nomination
came up for confirmation it was turned
down. The senate would .not confirm
- aftri- his action on the extra judicial
district'bill.
“Hei is a bright man and knows'the
laws* but there are . things about .his
private character I do not like. I nev
er opposed‘his confir mation. My rela
tions with 'Tvey are too 'welHthowrr' to
need any explanation, It is foolish to
couple :his name with ’mine.’ , Mr. Heid
was a candidate for governor, and it is
, lurd*y likely that we entered into any
combination to defeat Wickersham or
for any other purpose.”
