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 hajye 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,, 4
MARQUAM FOR DELEGATE CLUB
MORE ON HOWZE
(Continued from Page One]
Congressional Medal of Honor, many
mentions in official orders and rapid
promotion.
As a lieutenant of cavalry he pre
vented the warring Sioux tribes from
escaping at Wounded Knee and, with
his 50 cavalrymen, closed the gap
which made possible the return of the
Indians to the reservation. When a
lieutenant colonel of volunteers, Gen
eral Howze rescued Lieutenant Com
mander Gilmore and 27 other naval
officers and men from the Philippine
insurrectos under Aguinaldo. In con
junction with Colonel Luther Hare he
also rescued 3,500 Spanish prisoners,
including 450 officers, one a major
general. For this General Howze was
officially thanked by the secretary of
war for “most distinguished conduct.”
He was then promoted to be a Briga
dier deneral of volunteers although
only a lieutenant in the regular line.
In General Pershing’s punitive ex
pedition into Mexico after Villa, Gen
eral Howze, then a major commanding
a squadron of selected mounted men,
rode 75 miles in 24 hours without rest
while pursuing Villa through the
mountain passes of Chihuahua. He
made a night ride of 42 miles and
fought an engagement with the ban
dits at Cjos Azules, killing 61 of the
bandits including a Villa general.
This ride is still referred to as
“Howze’s ride,” and won for him a
promotion to be a lieutenant colonel.
General Howze is a native of Hen
derson county, Texas, and a graduate
t of the class of 1883 at West Point
academy. He was commandant at
West Point, organized the famous
34th volunteer infantry at Fort Lo
gan, Colo., served in command of the
American regiment stationed in Porto
Rico, was graduated from the war
college and was chief of staff of the
northeastern department with head
quarters at Boston before going to the
Mexican border to command the El
Paso district.
Gene-ral Howze was promoted to be
a major general on August 22, 1918,
which date was the 54th anniversary
of his birth. While in command on
the Mexican border General Hcwze
succeeded in establishing friendly re
lations with the Mexican officials in
Juarez and his period of command
was known as “Howze’s era of good
feeling.” He has been in command of
a cavalry unit on the western front in
France.
