JARVIS DECLINES OFFICE.
Alaska Governorship Lies Between
Hoggatt, Perkins and Clum.


Washington, March Sd. H. Jarvis,
ex-captain in the Revenue Cutter serv-
ice and now engaged in business in Sc
attic and Alaska, today informed the
president that, owing to a business
agreement he would be unable to &C.
cept the governorship of Alaska, re-
Gently rendered him. The president
expressed considerable regret that Cap
tain Jarvis found it impossible to take
the office, for he assured him that he
had every confidence that he would give
Alaska splendid administration and
insure to every man "square DEAL"
Since Governor Brady resigned,
prominent persons from all parts of
Alaska have been clamoring for the ap-
pointment of Captain Jarvis and, were
he not tied up in business, he would be
delighted to accept the. office; but under
the circumstances, the president said
he would abide by his decision.
The race probably now lies between
W. B. Hoggett, of Juneau; W. T. Per-
kins, of Seattle and Nome, and John II.
Clum, recently appointed postmaster Of
Fairbanks.
