TRAP FOR HANNAH
WAS CONSPIRACY,
SO C0ULSON SAYS
Vice.Mayor Simply Says He
Was in No Conspiracy and
Knows Nothing.
Arts Declines 10 Talk About
The Affair.
HEARING BEFORE ALDERMEN.

Vice Mayor Ed Hannah at his own
request will be tried next Tuesday
night In the board OF aldermen under
Section 32O6, OF the charter, which
specifies: "If any city officer shall be
directly or indirectly interested in
any contract with the city or in any
work done by the city, or in furnish
ing supplies for the city OF any of
its Institutions. or in the sale of any
property to or for the city. he shall
be guilty of a misdemeanor, and up
, on the mayor becoming satisfied that
any elective officer is so interested
and reports the fact TO the board of
aldermen, the board OF aldermen
shall. as soon as practicable, convene
to hear and determine the same, and
If, by a two-thirds vote OF the mem
bers elect OF said board, he be found
so Interested, shall be Immediately
dismissed from suca Office"
This nominally puts the mayor in
the attitude of preferrlng charges
against Vice Mayor Hannah, though
the first information came to the
mayors ears from Mr.. Hannah him
SELF coupled with the request that
such a trial be held. Mr.. Hannah
will be represented by Attorney w.
A. Berry. chairman OF the Demo

Naturally Mr.. Hannah has nothing
to say about the charges, because he
denies having ever entered into any
conspiracy and 80 knows nothing

We, the Republicans of the Dis
trict of Alaska, in convention as
sembled at Juneau, this 3oth day
of June, 1910, hereby reafirm and
adopt the platform of the National
Republican Party in convention as
sembled at Chicago in 1908,
We indorse the legislative pro-
gram Of the HonarabIe James Vic
kersham, Delegate to Congress
from Alaska, and approve OF the
actions taken by him in preventing
the enactment Of laws which tend
to restrict the rights of the people
of this territory.
The people of Alaska are peac-
able, industrious, law-abiding and
patriotic citizens of the United
States. In 1909 AIaska's output
of gold and fish amounted
to more than $50, 900, 900; he~ t,ade
with the United States amounted to
more than $50, 900, 900 cash; the
trad of the Philippines was but
s26, 900, 900, and that of China,
through the famous open Door"
was but s48, 900, 900. Every white
man, women and child in Alaska
has a trade value of sI3o2.oo to
the United States: the Hawaiians
SIT each; the Porto Ricans s48
and the Philippines but S.. so.
Fourty five thousand Americans of
such value are worthy of an elect

James Wickersham. We believe
that he exhibited his usual insln-
cerity when he gave that platform
birth, because We are satisfied that
outside the fact that it has hereto
fore furnished vehicle for him to
ride to Washington in, he has abso-
lutelv neither use for nor interest
in Alaska nor Alaskans. If you
have any doubts on this question,
read over the fourth paragraph,
that demanding the abolition of
Alaskan Forestry Reserves. It's
easy to make resolutions and plat
forms, but what action has he tax
en- or even attempted along this
line.
When he was here a year or so
ago he promised to do his utmost
to relieve the conditions as far as
the timber reserve is concerned
will somebody who knows please
tell us what he has done. The
same is true of his promises to some
of his most enthusiastic supporters
here in Wrangell. They asked him
to help them out in the toWnsite mat
ter here. He was prodigal in his
promises. They waited for him to
put some Of those promises into ef-
feet, and are still waiting-Good
old Knute Nelson is responsible for
whatever action has been taken,

TRIED.

NOT DEPENDABLE

On another page of this weeks
Sentinel appears the text of a let
Ter written by James Wiclersham
in which he offers ia sell himself,
his friends aad whatever influence
he might have in Alaska to the
Guggenheims for SIS, ooo.oo The
language of that letter is SO plain
and unequivocal that there is no
way in which he can dodge II. 50 he
makes no attempt to, and today It
stands as a warning to the voters
OF Alaska, of what this man is will
ing to do ia case circumstances
make it possible, that he is ready
and willing to sell out to the high
est bidder. The attempt has been
made to excuse that letter by say
ing that it was purely a matter Of
business, and anyway il was be-
fore he even contemplated running
for the delegateship. Probably it
was a matter Of business as he sees
it, but how does it appear 10 the
average voter when he secs the
attitude Of the man toward these
who refused 70 even consider his
offer.
As for the claim that it Vas be-
fore re contemplated running for
Congress, such is not the case, as

Here is Wickersham as he act

Here is Wickersham as he act
ually exists. Why did he send
this telegram? Could it have been
for any other purpose than either
to blackmail them into giving him
the situation he sought in the let
ter shown on the front page OF this
weeks Sentinel, or to prepare the
way to act as their hiring in Con-
gress when he was elected? 1t
must have been one or the other,
either one traitrous to the best In
terests of Alaska.
Here it is, he offered to sell out
onca 10 the very people he now SO
roundly abuses, and the only log
ical thing to conclude is that he
will sell out again if he gets the
chance, Slippery Jim" he has
been named and slippery
