Thomas A. Marquam
INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE
For Delegate from Alaska
In his nearly thirty years residence in Alaska, Mr*
Marquam has shown himself to be a considerable boos
ter for the Territory one whose word is as good as
his bond, a friend of the under dog whose cause he
has never refused because the client had no money:
He has played fair with all men.
Mr. Marquam stands, equally well at Washington
as in Alaska. If he is elected Delegate, Alaska will
never have to flood Washington with telegrams,
denying false and libelous statements circulated by
her representative, attacking the fair name of the
Territory and its people.
A vote for Marquam is a vote for progress; a vote
for him is a vote for a booster, for one who can and
will get results.
MARQUAM FOR DELEGATE CLUB
IRE ON MARQUAM
(Continued from Page One)
ing the most ardent supporters of Mr.
Sutherland became hike warm. Mr.
Marquam made numerous votes last
night and it is generally conceded
that he will carry the division by a
handsome majority. Before Mr. Mar
quam left he was given a banquet by
the Bar association.
The aviation field was crowded- to
bid him God speed on his return jour
ney to Fairbanks. He arrived here
a stranger and left with a host of
warm friend. He departed at 0:45 a.
m. by airplane. He could not tarry!
to attend a Chamber of Commerce
banquet which was tendered him. His
denunciation of the Indian mass vot
ing made a great hit here.
(Special to The Gateway)
The following from the Nome Nug
get, dated October 1. was relayed by
request here:
“Mr. Marquam was heartily receiv
ed upon his arrival, practically every
automobile in town being present at
the landing field. A political rally
was scheduled for last night but due
to the departure of the steamer Vic
toria for the outside, was postponed
at the request of a number of busi
ness men, until this evening, for rea
son of the fact that they had mail to
get out on the boat and wanted to be
present to hear Mr. Marquam.
“The general opinion seems to be
that Sutherland1 was injured material
ly by his last visit here and he has
ceased to be a popular idol. Mr. Mar
quam has the support of nine-tenths
of the miners employed by the Ham
mond Consolidated gold fields and
the busines interests of the commun
ity here are solidly behind him. The
committee in charge of his campaign
are elated over the prospects of vic
tory. Campaign circulars advertising
the political meeting were scattered
from the aeroplane which ascended
several times with persons on short
excursions. Notwithstanding the post
ponment of the meeting last night a
throng appeared at the door and was
turned away. An overflow meeting
is expected tonight.
“Reports from outlying districts are
exceedingly encouraging and the most
enthusiastic local Marquam supporters
say that the outlook is beyond their
greatest expectations. It is expected
that Mr. Marquam will leave home
ward ' tomorrow. Mr. Sutherland’s at
tack on Judge Reed who was a resi
dent here for 20 years did him untold
harm in this community.”
