CHARACTER OF
TESTIMONY IN
WICK CONTEST
Judge James Wickersham began
taking testimony at Ketchikan on
August 12 in connection with his
election contest. Attorneys Charles^
H. Cosgrove and A. H. Ziegler, repre
senting Delegate George B. Grigsby,
believe he made no headway.
F. J. Hunt, who was one of the
judges of election there and a well
known Wickersham supporter, tes
tified that he believed that a num
ber had voted illegally by not com
plying with the regulations requir
ing thirty days residence in the pre
cinct.
Harvey Stackpole testified that he
saw W. T. Mahony carry a pros
titute to the polls in his automobile
Two witnesses were summoned to
testify how they had been influenced
In casting their votes. One of them,
his wife, testified that she did not
know how she had voted. The other,
the husband, said he voted for Sulzer
but had not been influenced.
E. G. Morrissey, editor of the Chron
icle, who Wickersham alleged had
voted illegally at Juneau testified that
he had arrived there about the middle
of August and had voted for Sulzer in
November.
Some testimony was taken re
galing Indians voting on the west
coast of Prince of Wales island.
Judge Wickersham was met at Ket
chikan by John B. Marshall of Ju
neau, who is assisting him in taking
testimony.
Wickersham took some testimony
in Seattle before coming North. Four
signal corps men testified that they
had lived in Alaska and voted there
at many elections. Three of them
said they had voted for Sulzer and
one that he had voted for Wicker
sham.
SENSATIONAL RUMORS
‘ ARE POSITIVELY DENIED
BY SEATTLE MAGAZINE
_ •
Rumors ^have reached Alaska at
various 1irr.es that the Japanese own
every hotel in Seattle and it is evi
dent that the same talk is going
around Seattle. The Railway and
* Marine News for August denies it
editorially under the head of “Ja
panphobia.” Following is a part
of the editorial:
“No less than a dozen prominent
men have whispered to the writer
within a month that the Japanese
own every hotel in Seattle. That
supposedly startling announcement
has been followed by a general dis
cussion of the question and much
JK unwarranted gossip and specula
tion. Who is responsible for the
propaganda and the really villain
ous gossip it is impossible to say,
but dealing with this statement ex
clusively, it is a falsehood pure and
simple, for Marmaduke and his
friends still run the Washington,
the Collins estate has the Seattle,
the Frye family the Frye, Sweeney
has the Savoy and the Butler. The
Rainier Grand, the Washington An
nex and the Washington Apart
ments are still handled by well
known Seattle people, and a syndi
cate is to put up a new hotel. There
are dozens of others, so why this
unreserved and sweeping falsehood
should be so thoroughly passed
around is a mystery. It really
wouldn’t matter if it were true,
but as it is wholly false, there
must be some ulterior motive be
hind the propaganda.”

Not the smart city clothes and the
