however, the oil industry in Alaska is at

For Land Commissioner.

Hon. William III. Rose, of Bath, will
be candidate for the republican nomi-
nation for commissioner of the state

qualified to perform the duties of the
Office, If nominated and elected, and is
probably the most available candidate
thus far mentioned for the place. His
service in the legislature made him
familiar with affairs of state. His natu-
raj ability, education and sound bust

man of his stamp as their chief city
executive. 1t pledges him its unquali-
fed support, and the support of every
other public spirited republican in the
city. 1t believes also that the newly
elected members of the council enter on
their duties with the sincere determine
ton of giving the city the best possible
administration during the next twelve
months and at the smallest cost consis-
tent with safety and good business man
ag ment.
Four republicans were defeated. The
majority, which in America is the dss-
pot whose mandate all must obey de-
cided against shen, whether with rea-
son or not it is not for this paper to say.
Sufficient it is that 1t so decided Per
haps it is not big disappointment to
any one of the these gentlemen but the
TIMES sympathizes with the four men
of its party who were defeated, as it be-
lieves, through no fault or disqualifica7
tion of their own. 1t feels confident
however that it knows the stuff of which
they are made and expects to see them,
together with itself, and as said above, all
public spirited republicans in the city,
doing all in their power to make the
coming city administration the best in
the city's history. The majority rules,
gentlemen, and after all its our city,
and our city officials, our improvements
and our taxes. And we can all help
in some way.
