DENIES IT Capt. MOgg Brands Accusa'
 tiOns As Lies

Capt. Mogg emphatically denies the charge that he wrecked the whaler Bonanza. In an interview in the San Francisco Examiner he said:
 "I am a sailor, and shall continue to be a sailor. Would be such fool as to wreck my ship and run the risk ot ruining my reputation, particularly when almost all I possessed in the world was tied up in that same ship?
 As for the charge that tried to per suade the crew to ship in some other vessel as soon as possible, that is quite true. I did so. Perhaps they would prefer to continue living in that" and he drew from his pocket a photograph of the shell O. the Bonanza, lying on the beach with great rents letting day light into her hull. "If they don't ship they'll stay there. That's all there is about 1t.
 "The charge that I was on prolonged debauch during the greater part of the voyage is made out of whole cloth The entire letter is just yarn concoct' ed by a lot of old sailors"

ATTENTION TO ALASK AN DELE
 GATES

h spite of all that has been said Hy carping tories congress does seem to be paying some attention to the delegates to Washington, selected at the conven- tion held in Seattle last November. They have not been given seats in the house of representatives. No one ia miliar with congressional matters ever expected that they woald be. But they have been given free run of the com mitles rooms and they will be recog- nized as men authorized by the people to speak for them. They will have a standing that will make the position of self-constltuted lobbyists, who have been the whole thing in the past, less dangerous to the best interests of Alaska.
 And the best part of this is, that at the head of the delegation is Gov. Swine ford, s man who stands for the rule of Alaska by the people of Alaska; a man without guile, without a selfish interest or ambition to serve.

President Roosevelt and others at Washington who are high in authority, while constantly urging 8 delegate in congress for Alaska, always refrain from mentioning the question of selt-governmeut for the district, but they will come to it, When the fact becomes clear to him that the people of Alaska and those members of con- Sress who understand conditions ID Alaska best are for territorial govern meut for this district, President ROose- welt will support the proposition. It will be made clear to him in this year of our Lord, 1906.
