 That the Juneau Democratic club is unalterably opposed to any person being the Democratic candidate for delegate to Congress who is not at this time a tried and true Democrat"

Rebate Was Vigorous.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The fin. al debate in the Senate over the re- port of the conference committee was vigorous and centered about the prop osition of giving the President the right to operate the road after fail. ure to lease it." Several Senators, including Senator George Sutherland, of Utah, maintained that the Presi. dent might not attempt to lease the railroad and could report failure" to Congress as an excuse for the gov ernment operation.
 Other Senators, including Sen ator George w. Norris, of Nebraska, favored the elimination of permission ot lease the road under any circum. stance and desired the bill to provide that the President should operate 1t for the government Senator Norris was for straight government owner. ship and operation.
 The provision giving the President permission to begin construction of a railroad in his discretion in advance of deciding whether or not existing lines were finally to be purchased was attacked vigorously by Senator A. B. Cummins, of Iowa. Senator Cummins insisted that the President should &C., quire any railroads that it was intend ed to purchase before the beginning the construction of new road.
 Senator Miles Poindexter, of Wash ington, urged the necessity of haste in disposing of the Alaska railroad prob' lem. He said that the conference re. port should be disposed of immcd' lately. He said, however, that he does not want the government to pay an enormous sum for existing lines.
 The conference report was approved without a roll call, and the bill passed again by a vote of 42 to 27. It will be come a law as soon as the President attaches his signature to it.
