McBride Issues Statement
J. C. McBride enters the race for
Republican National Committeeman
with no strings attached to his candi
dacy. He has lived in the Territory
continuously for the past twenty-two
years and has never held office. He
has spent nearly a*hundred thousand
dollars in developing business inter
■ ests in Southeastern Alaska, includ
ing fishing, mining and merchandis-i
ing. He is 45 years old, was bomj
in Mono County, California, and was ! “
.reared in San Francisco, where he was |
Educated in the public schools.
Mr. McBride will ask the support!
of the Republicans and all other citi-f
?ens of Alaska on the basis of his'
business record, and his Republican*'
ism, consistent from the time he cast]
his first vote twenty-four years ago.
"If elected I will distribute patron
age along the lines that govern the
various party clubs throughout the
territory,” he told friends who called
to pledge him their support. “In other
words, I would abide by such recom
mendations for appointments in theirj
districts ,as district precinct clubs,
would recommend.”
He has received cablegrams which
give an Indication that he will have
staunch supporters in each of the
four judicial divisions of the Terri- j
tory, irrespective of what local clubs j
may do in the way of expressing a
preference, yet it is believed that a,
majority of the clubs in the Territory
will back his candidacy through the
primary campaign.
Mr. McBride was asked to make a
statement as to his policies, if elec
ed, and in the event the Republicans
carry the national elections and come
back in power.
“I am a Republican, and have al
ways been one,” he replied. “I had
not intended to become a candidate
for the national committee, although
urged several weeks ago to file my
declaration. Now that I have filed
my candidacy, I intend to make as
strong a bid for election as I can. If
I am defeated, I will have no excuses
to make, and I will support the win
ner. I am not allied with nor respon
sible to any so-called political faction
in Alaska.
“I believe in Alaskans holding all
the offices in Alaska. No one, in my
judgement, is more competent to gov
era Alaska than the people who make
the Territory their home.
“I would like to see legislation
enacted that would bring the pulp and
paper industry to this Territory, I
favor generous appropriations that
will give Alaska sufficient aids to
navigation, and I hope to see the fish
eries questions be put in the hands
of the Alaskan people.”
Wickersham Not A Candidate
Former Mayor rnery Valentine says L
he has received a telegram from for- _
mer Delegate James Wickersham ray- _
ing that he, Wickersham, will not be
a candidate for delegate to the Chi
cago convention. A few days ago the
Associated Press sent to all the Asso
ciated Press papers in Alaska a tele
graphic news item quoting Charles E.
Herron, of Seattle, one of Wicker
sham’s supporters, as saying that he
had received a telegram from Judge
Wickersham in which he announced
that he would not be a candidate for
delegate to Congress, that he would
support Dan Sutherland for that pos
ition, but that he would be a candidate
for Delegate to the Republican Na
tional Convention.—Juneau Empire.

RECLAMATION WORK
FOR DISTRICT OF
NORTH MANITOBA |
WINNIPEG, Feb. 7 (by Associated
Press).—Reclamation work in The
Pass district of Northern Manitoba
which it is proposed the government
undertake at an estimated cost of
two million dollars, would open 600
000 acres of fertile land to cultivation
for the growing of grain according to
R. C. Wallace commissioner for
Northern Manitoba who visited Winni
peg recently.
The completion of the Hudson Bay
railway, seventy-six miles of which is
yet unfinished, will open large acre
ages of undeveloped land, Mr. Wallace I
said.
Sarah Bernhardt set a pronounced p
example in this theme of proper den
tal care, when she refused to have
in her company of players any man or
woman with neglected teeth; and
when asked how she retained her
youth and good health she replied:
“To my hpysicians and dentists, more
than to me, belongs my success.”
