Douglas Island news., 1906-12-12

If late dispatches from Washington are true, the Governor of Alaska has crossed swords with the authorized representative of the territory and is eontesting with him the questions to come before congress. MT. Hoggatt has his duties to perform as governor of this great territory, that, if well per formed, will prove burdensome task for one lone man. We are 10th to be- heve that he will forget that he holds his position simply by appointment as against Mir. Waskey, who was elected by the voters of Alaska. We believe that Gov. Hoggatt has too much good sense to stand between the people of Alaska and the accomplishment of their purpose, when that purpose is the upbnilding of Alaska.

The Record Miner tearfully sympa- thizes with the mother because she was given only one of the two children. If we are rightly informed the Judge was also affected by humane motives, in giving her that one, and had it been strong and healthy, the father would have been given custody of both.

THINK FALL KILLED WOMAN
Looks as n Knockout Drops We're Adj
minIstered 10 Sailor With Her.

Coroner Shrady examined yesterday
Clinton c. Clark, the sailor from the battle
ship Indiana who was found lying beside
a dead womap in Riverside Park on Sun
day morning. Clark is a powerful fellow
81 years old. He is a very intelligent young
man. He old the Coroner that he could
recollect nothing that occurred after he
took a drink in a Bowery saloon at 9 o'clock
Saturday evening with an army corporal
whom he met in a shooting gallery. Clark
said he left his ship shortly after noon,
having ST in his possession. Up to the
time he took the drink that knocked him
out he had spent possibly 50. When he
was found by the police he had only 81
left. This he had hidden in his stocking.
He thinks he was drugged n robbed.
As FOR the woman, he declared that he had
no recollection Of seeing her at all until
the policeman awoke him in the park.
Clark had a number OF bruises that puz-
zled the Coroner. He had no marks that
would be likely to result from a struggle
with q woman. There was q bump on his
head, though the scalp was not cut. His
right shoulder was injured az though it
had been badly wrenched, while his right
ankle was swollen. He explained that he
had rheumatism in the shoulder and the
foot and showed where he had cut his shoe
10 ease his foot. The blood on his face
evidently came from the woman
The police think that Clark sat on the
park wall with he woman and that both
fell over into the park-a drop Of 20 feet.
They believe that the woman fell first and
that Clark in trying to save her also pitched
over, landing on her body. This, it is
thought, would account for the fact that
her ribs were broken and alsOfo or the bump
on Clark's head. His shoulder and ankle,
the police think, were wrenched in the fall.
Clark said he was aware hat IL he could
confirm this theory it would mean his i'm
mediate liberation; but he persisted in say-
ing that he recalled nothing that happened
after he to0k the drink. Coroner Shrady
Instructed the police to GO to Governors

clark shot and drank. He sent Clark to

SLANDERING THE STATE.

How do the contended, prosperous
people of Iowa enjoy the spectacle of
their governor prancing up and down
the state and picturing it as reeking
with corruption and stencil in the
nostrils of decency, says the Des
Moines Capital. The governor has be-
come so desperate in his campaign for
the United States senate that he is
willing to SANDER Iowa, to hold it up
to the gaze of the nation as notorious
ly evil, as a plague spot infested by
vile corporations which are debauch-
ing the government and robbing the
people. He is assiduously poisoning
the minds of Iowa people against their
own institutions and government, and
is giving the citizens of other states
the impression that Iowa is a hotbed
of corruption and that its citizenship
has been and can be bought and sold
like cattle.
What spectacle is this for Iowa to
look upon
What libel upon Iowa citizenship
and Iowa institutions
What a SANDER against Iowa repub-
licanism, which has been in control
OF the state government for nearly
fifty years!
Is it possible that Iowa republicans
can seriously contemplate giving their
approval to his campaign of Islander
directed against themselves and
against their state? Are the thought
full, sober, loyal republicans of the
state going to be swept off their feet
by the cries and gestures of pre-
tender, who has absolutely no interest
in the republican party save as he can
use it for his own ends? Has it got
ten so that the stump talk of candi-
date for office is more convincing than

the story of his own record, put down
in black and white? Has it come to
the pass in Iowa that the more man
abuses his party and its policies and
leaders the more deserving he is of
the support of the members of that
party?
The republicanism of Iowa is pass
ing through the fire. The trial bal
ance is being taken. 1t is for men
who love the party for what it has
dc ne, for what it has been and what
it stands for, TO say whether a cam
paign based upon villification of that
party shall triumph III this state.
