ONE COMMISSIONER
ONLY FROM ALASKA
Gov. Brady to Represent
Territory at st. Louis.
WILLIAMS WAS DROPPED
Opposition to Him Was Based on the
Fact of His Being a Democrat
and Nothing Else.

Governor Brady of Alaska is to be the
only commissioner from that Territory
TO the St. Louis Exposition, although
the Territory is entitled to two com
missioners. This decision by Judge
Thomas Ryan. Assistant Secretary of
the Interior, settles the dispute over the
appointment of Louis L. Williams, of
Juneau.
lfr. Williams was appointed commits
sioner to assist Governor Brady. He
was TO receive a salary OF $500 per
year. travelling expenses, and a per diem
OF So for subsistence Mr.. Williams was
a Democrat. and a member of the Demo
cratic national committee. but he was
recommended for the position OF com
missioner by Republicans and Demo-
Gratis alike. as he was recognized on all
sides as one of the most progressive
and enterprising citizens in the Terri
tory.
Why Williams Was Appointed.
Governor Brady is a stanch Repub-
lican. and had already been appointed
Mr.. Williams came recommended from
such a variety of sources that Judge
Ryan decided to appoint him not only
from the standpoint of merit, but with
the additional idea of making the COM
mission bipartisan. and thereby arous-
ing interest among all classes of Alas
kans.
Mr.. Williams had been appointed than
prominent Republican politicians began
to send kilograms to the President, Sec
rotary Hitchcock of the Interior, and
Judge Ryan. The prevailing note in
all of the kilograms. and the letters
which followed them, was that such a
good job should not go to a Democrat.
and a man named Foote. was urged for
the place. The consequence was Mr..
williams appointment was held up. al
though he had been telegraphed to go
to work al once.
One Charge Ridiculed.
Judge Ryan said this morning that
Alaska stood exactly like the Indian Ter
ritory in the appointment of st. Louis
commissioners. and as only one man will
act for the Indian Territory it was de-
cided not to divide the responsibility in
Alaska but to allow Governor Brady TO
act alone.
One of the political charges against
Mr.. Williams was that in consideration
of his appointment he was to support
the alleged ambitions Of Governor
Francis. president OF the exposition. for
the leading place on the Democratic
Presidential ticket. but the charge has
been ridiculed on all sides

ties concerned, and the names of every
officer. priest and person taking part in
the performance OF the ceremony. such
certificate to be signed by the parties
and by every officer, priest and per.
son taking part in the ceremony,
should be complied with by the person
solemnizing the marriage and such
certificate should be filed in the office
Of the clerk of the Probate Court-Cir.
