Pertinent Facts as to
Election for Delegate
(Edited by Chas. A. Derry)
This department is conducted in the interest of Charles A. Sul/.er,
Democratic nominee for delegate in congress, and for the purpose of
putting before the public facts in support of his election as the route
sentuDve of the territory of Alaska at Washington.
-- - ■ *
1
Tin’ rcliirii of Delegate Stllzer to
' Alaska to render an accounting for
his stewardship as their representa
tive in congress should be a pleasant
task to him, for the people are already
pretty well informed of the work that
he has done, says the Juneau Umpire.
They know that he has been the hard
est-working and most successful dele
gate in congress this territory has ever
bad. He has literally worked day and
, night in the interest of his eonstitu
I ents, without regard to locality or to
| politics. He has never asked what
j would be the effect on him personally.
He has simply asked if it would bene
fit Alaska and Alaskans
Not the least of Delegate Sulzer's
achievements for the territory are the
friends he has made for himself and
; Alaska at Washington. There is not |
.1 cabinet department in the capital or
! a bureau where he is not known and
where he is not liked. He is regarded
at the national capital for what he is
an able, conscientious, fearless, per
sistent and tireless worker for the
best interests of Alaska and Alaskans.
He has not played politics. He has
! not worked simply for a record. He
| has not sought vengeance. He has
■ not nursed any grouches lie has not !
tried to punish enemies He has not I
; tried to set one person against an-!
I other. Yet he has been fearless of
j the consequences when hot
thought Alaska's welfare was in |
voiced.
In spite of the fact that the present j
I congress has devoted its time almost!
exclusively to war and war revenue
! measures, Mr. Sulzer has accotn
j plished a great deal for the territory,
in rosiilts and has irnt a
lot of matters well under way for the j
future
Fortunately hereafter Mr. Sulzer
will hereafter have the active eo-l
operation of the governor of Alaska t
Better team-mates for labor in the j
interest of Alaska than Delegate Sul-J
zer and Governor Higgs are not in j
the territory. They are in hearty |
j accord and sympathy w ith each other I
I and both have very high standing at
the national capital. The people of
Alaska are to be congratulated that !
| they have two such men in the two!
highest positions in the territory to
work in the interest of Alaskan tie
1 velopment and for Alaskans.
Frank Manley a Sulzer Booster
Frank G. Manley, the old-time
placer operator of Interior Alaska,
known among pioneer Alaskans as
one of the broad-minded, open-hearted
men who made possible the opening
up of the country, and whose faith in
Alaska has been well demonstrated
in many lines of endeavor, has writ
ten the following interesting commu
nication from Chicago to John \V.
Troy of Juneau:
“My Dear Mr. Troy: As Alaska is
bubbling over at the present time with
r. political campaign in wl-.l h tl o
I Hon. Charles A. Sulzer, the delegate
j from Alaska, is a candidate for re
J election, and is opposed by Mr. Wick
ershatn, the former delegate, 1 think
^■»
—
it might not bf» amiss for me to say a
word regarding tin* situation, in view
of. the fact that I have just left Wash
ington. where I have spent some
weeks, and as I am much interested
in Alaska and its welfare
“I went to Washington some weeks
ago on a matter of personal business
of some Importance, and the nature
ol it required numerous conferences
ii: the departments and with a num
ber of officials. Although I had fol
lowed Mr. Sul/.er’s work in Washing
ton with interest for some time. I had
never had tie* opportunity of meeting
him until this recent trip to the cap
ital. 1 found him a most affable gen
tleman. a hard and persistent worker
and anxious to do everything possi
ble to help Alaska and Alaskans, and
in bis endeavors to those ends he is
meeting with marked success
“In the departments 1 found that
Mr. Sulzer is held in high esteem,
that li<* has ready access at all times
to the heads of tin* several branches
ot the government, and that In* has
interested' all in Alaska and its wel
fare Official Washington knows him
for what he is. a straightforward, lion
est. hard working business man,
v hose reputation stands without
blemish and whose word is as good
as his bond.
On the other hand, Mr. Wicker
sham’s reputation of Tacoma and
Fairbanks days is known and I be
lieve his influence is nil. <>f course
it has been a matter of common
knowledge throughout Alaska for
years that the former delegate was ■
persona non grata with Attorney (*en
cral Wickershani. and it is my opin
ion that In* has less influence in the
departments at the present time aim ;
would have less In case he should he
elected. But of that, 1 think, we need
have no fear, for 1 am confident that |
the people of Alaska will never make
such a mistake in the future. And j
notwithstanding the fact that he has
been in Washington for the greater^
part of the past two years, not only
not doing any good for the territory,
lint virtually attempting to block the j
work of Mr. Sulz.er. the latter has
made splendid progress, and many of
the matters which he started are re
ceiving favorable consideration and
will ultimately be pushed through.
"Before leaving for tin* Hast it was
reported in Seattle that the contest
rase bad been decided in favor of
Wicket sham, and that he Intel been
seated as delegate 1'poll my arrival
in Washington I found Ibis report to j
he w ithout foundation of fact, as the |
elections committee had made no re
port, and up to the time of my de
part it re it was Impossible to ascertain |
when a report might he expected But i
notwithstanding these rumors, or
even any report that may be made by
tlic committee, 1 hope and feel confi
dent that Mr. Sulzer will be seated.
"Anyone arriving in Washington
from Alaska wil) find Mr Sulzcr's of
fice open from 9 o’clock in the morn
ing until late every night, and will, 1
am sure, receive the same courteous
treatment that was extended to me.
And In conclusion let me say that I
hope the people of Alaska will re-elect
him In November that his splendid
service may be continued.
"Very truly yours,
<1 MANI,KY.”
