This department Is conducted In the interest of Charles A. Sulzer.
Democratic nominee for delegate in congress, and for the purpose of
putting before tint public facts in support of his election as the repre
sentative of the territory of Alaska at Washington.

“Nobody in the North, even the mo
rabid Democrat, will deny that Janie
Wickersham is the brightest man i
the territory ’’
The above quotation is from an e
fusion in one of the Wickershai
clack of newspapers
Fulsome flattery is the pabulum «
fools. To be the subject of sue
fawning must he nauseating in tli
extreme to any man who is not
fool. And James Wickersham. wha
ever else may be said of him, is m
a fool. Hue judging from his recei
utterances, the “brightest man in tli
territory” evidently has not a ver
high opinion of the intelligence of th
residents of the territory

A story illustrating this phase <
the ox delegate's character is told b
an old-time Alaskan. During one <
the pugnacious Wickersham's can
paigns an admirer was dilating o
the many “scraps" that Wlekershai
I had pulled off during his official ci
11 reor at Washington, and wound up by
s saying that whatever else might In
n said of Washington, it could not be
denied that he was a fighter. Another
f old-timer, evidently tired of the con
ii stant wrangling in which Alaska’s del
egate was the leading figure, re
if torted:
h “Well, if it’s a scrapper you want
e for delegate, why not elect Jack John
a son? I believe he can lick Wick
t- easily."
