After several days of a bull mar

morning and went after Missoula

tons proved quite successful. and
they lowered prices very materially.
Profit taking added to the weakness
and further declines are not unlikely.

CCKRSHM AND NATIONAL COMMIT LEHMAN SHACK ARGUE TE POINT

The great debate between Dele. gate Wickersham and National Com mitteeman Shackleford was great success from the standpoint of the present delegate.
 Mir. Shackleford was the first to speak, and the audience listened at tentively to what he had to say, al though 1t was evident from the start that his personal animus against the delegate somewhat warped his judg- ment On more than one occasion he made his speech the opportunity for heaping abuse upon the delegate. This was in strange contrast to the kept his temper throughout and scored with the audience according ly.
 The debate did not throw a great deal of light upon the political needs of Alaska, but it did prove that the much talked of Wickersham letter to the Guggenheims was in direct answer to one from them asking him to enter their service and to name his terms.
 In other ways the delegate expos ed the tactics of the Alaska syndi- cate reciting many instances where this octopus had prevented develop ment and had shot down men in cold blood to further their nefarious schemes.

than Judge Wickersham would ever do in his life. We had three candi- dates. He didn't know much about O'Connor, but Orr had worked hard CT than Wickersham ever did and he did not think it was yet time to call him a Guggenheimer.
The Alaska citizen., 1910-07-23
Shackleford Opens \

MT. Shackleford, in rising to open the debate, said that he desired to preface his remarks by thanking them for coming to hear the debate kind and courteous manner in which they had received him during the few days that he had been In Fair banks. He would do all in his power to help the city.
 His trip down the Yukon in com pany with Mir. Orr and MT. Wicker sham had enabled him to broaden his views regarding the interior. All though he had been in Alaska ten years this was the first time that he had had occasion to visit the in- terior. He expected to be here some weeks, in connection with the prac- tice of his profession. He was fresh from the "flesh-pots" of the outside. Neither he nor MT. Wickersham was connected with the Guggenheims, both were here as patriots in poli- tics. His interest in politics was no greater than any other good citi- Zens should be. All should take an interest in the country. It was matter of vital importance to all. Alaska was new country, with un- told riches beneath the surface. In H. and some day 1t would be more fla nous than the Scandinavian penin sula. The country needed capital to develop it. It also needed an able and patient representative, with tol- erance and some self-sacrifice in politics; it needed that in repre- sentative more than strength.
 Attacks Delegate.
 The chief thing that he desired to do was to show how far the pres ent delegate had been successful in obtaining those things that we need. He had opposed the men who were trying to get railroad legislation through-men like Joslin and Rich ardson. The president favored com petitive bids so that the country would get the best terms, but Wickersham had favored the passing of the Hub bard bill. The difference between the president and Wickersham was that the former wanted equal rights for everybody.
 We knew we had not the railroads, that we had not progressed We knew that interior Alaska needed railroads, which would bring people and give that advertising so neces- sary to the opening up of the coun- try. With regard to conservation, MT. Shackleford said that 1t was all right in its way, but it did us no good if it was too broad, and thus prevented necessary development.
 The Lien Law.
 MT. Wickersham had claimed at Ester that the Miners lien law was a protection to the miners, and that he only secured it's passage after the fight of his life. He (Shackleford) had examined the proceedings, and did not find that anyone appeared in opposition to the bill. It was pass ed and signed without difficulty, and he could not see how Wickersham could say that it was the fight o1 his life. The delegate had said that Fink and the banks were opposing the bill. It was within Wickersham's

The Postmaster.

Regarding the appointment of Boyer to the postmastership, the delegate admitted that Shackleford had nom- mated him, but claimed that he did not oppose it. He received a let ter asking if he had any objections, but he asked that the appointment be confirmed

bear the scars of the fight to their political grave He, Shackleford. was still here, in spite of the scars.
 Wickersham had been circulating reports that he. Shackleford was connected with the Guggenhems It was not awful to be connected with the Guggenheims, the judge and he were in the same fix. Next he read Wickersham statement at Cor doya to the effect that anything con. nected with the Guggenheims involv- ed moral turpitude in the eyes of the people of Alaska
