ALASKA’S FRIENDS IN SEWARD
Seward is especially fortunate today in having
among its visitors three distinguished gentlemen, all of
whom are friendly to the cause of the Northland, and
each and every one being particularly influential in his
own field.
Bishop Peter Trimble Rowe, of the Episcopal Church
is exceedingly well known in Seward. The “Bishop of the
Snows,” ag he has been aptly named, has traveled all over
the Territory and knows most of the people in it. He is
well beloved not only by the members of his own Church,
but) by everyone who has met him.
Governor William Sulzer’s name has been a by-word
in Alaskan homes for many years. Ever a friend of Alas
ka, he has been ready to serve the best interests of the
Territory, to defend its good name when such defense was
necessary, and to urge legislation which would help the
development of the Territory. In Congress he has always
been recognized as one of Alaska’s foremost champions.
Mr. S. T. Mather, Director of the National Park Ser
vice, is making his first trip into the Territory to make
an inspection of the Mount McKinley National Park. The
Gateway extends to him the greetings of the people of
Alaska, and feels certain that his visit to the Territory
cannot but result in good.
To all its distinguished visitors Seward bids a hearty
welcome, and the hope that their stay in our midst may
result in a better understanding of each other’s problems.
LET YOUR CONSCIENCE BE YOUR GUIDE
The reports recently received from the westward,
along the Alaska Peninsula and Bristol Bay, where Mr.
Marquam is at present conducting his campaign for elec
tion as Delegate to Congress, are well in keeping with the
reports from other sections of Alaska, and particularly in
accord with the prediction made by The Gateway in its
Starting out as a candidate from a division of the
recent statement. The Gateway's prediction was that a
personal canvass by Mr. Marquam was bound to result in
his overwhelming victory in November. His evident sin
cerity and desire to be of service tof the Territory, his per
sonal charm and magnetism, coupled with the untiring
efforts of his many friends throughout Alaska, all points
to his success.
Starting out as a candidate fro ma division of the
Territory which casts but a small portion of Alaska's vote,
he has drawn to his standard men of worth from every
part of the Territory, and is building up an organization
of patriotic Alaskans which is bound to succeed over the
Indian voting machine of the present Delegate. Many of
the present Delegate's staunchest supporters have desert
ed his colors and have announced their support of Mr.
Marquam's candidacy. In this Mr. Sutherland has suffered
the greatest loss, for these are men who have supported
him, and Delegate Wickersham before him, loyally and
faithfully, but they have concluded that the time is here
when they must look to the welfare and well being of the
territory, rather than to their personal feelings in the
matter.
Every Alaskan must take a stand in this matter, and
it should not be difficult to do so. The issues of the cam
paign are clearly defined, and it is for each individual
voter to decide as to which policy he is willing to endorse.
There is no happy medium in this campaign,—you are
either for a thing or against it,—you are either for the
best interests of Alaska, or against them. Let your con
science be your guide.
In these changing times, (parents
year by year become a greater respon
sibility.
