Asked what he thought OF Henri Rom

PARTY OF REAL SPoRTSMEN
 GOING OUT WEDNESDAY

A party of real sportsmen will leave Juneau early Wednesday morning on the Georgia for a hunting expedition that is to consume several days in the neighborhood of Rodman bay. The party is to be headed by Dr, Fl. c. De- Vighne and Surveyor General Charles E. Davidson. All of Tuesday afternoon will be devoted to the examination of applicants who desire to attach them selves to the party. No one who fails to pass the examination will be allow ed to join. The mighty nimrods who have charge of the expedition have assured friends that they will bring back the legal limit in every kind of game, and many promises have been made, prompted by the generous dis. position of the great huntsmen.

the Thlingets of Southeastern Alas ka, the Alieuts of the Westward, the Eskimos of the North, the nomadic bands that gather along the streams of the Interior and the coast. It pro yided for a continuation of the special taxes the National government had levied on Alaska and for the eXpendi- ture of the receipts from the system of taxation by the Federal govern ment, and many limitations that were unsatisfactory.
 The late Alfred J, Daily went to Washington and personally interced- ed with Speaker Champ Clark, Chair man Henry D. Flood. of Virginia, the chairman of the committee on Terri tories, and other Democratic leaders in the interest of the bill, after some of the amendments that were asked for were secured. Charles c. Heifner William Pigott and others exerted their influence Among those whose influence was secured by Mir. Heifner was William J. Bryan, who always has had the confidence of Democratic leg islators. William Pigott also went back to Washington and spent time and money there in support of the home rule measure.
 These same Democrats and other | friends of Alaska, Democrats and Re publicans, co-operated to develop a sentiment in Seattle that finally SC, cured the endorsement of the Seattle 1 Chamber of Commerce and the Seat tie Commercial Club. This latter in fluence was required more with the , Senate and President than with the | House.
 Delegate Wickersham, in speeches in the Arctic Club and in many per sonal conversations acknowledged the help that these men gave to the bill l the extent of their approval of which he fully understood, before he attempt ed to represent them as having en dorsed his measure.
 During all of the conferences, ex tending over a long period, it was clearly understood by Delegate Wick ersham and those with whom he con ferred that the bill was regarded sim ply as a first step in legislation for self-government for Alaska, and 1t was prepared with the full knowledge that President Taft was opposed to any kind of self-government for Alaska and, it was believed that the Republi' can Senate would prevent the passage of a bill through that branch of Con- gress that would not receive his sane ! tion.
 These are the men, and this is a brief outline of the work they did for Alaska, that Delegate Wickersham assails for still striving to secure self. government for Alaska.

big world-all that stuff. One day, few
minutes after Bassford had heard about
Francis Burton Harrison's appointment
as Philippine commissioner, Harrison
himself telephoned to Bassford. asking
for an appointment with the Speaker.
Bassford told Bill that the psychological
moment had arrived:
go tell the Speaker that Representa-
tive Harrison is coming over, and ask
the Speaker to say a good word for you
to Harrison. there are a pile OF jobs
loose over there, and good ones, TOO
You ought to get one.
Bassford nearly had to throw Bill down
on the floor and jump on him before he
could make Bill promise to sing his own
song to the Speaker. but either Bill did
ask the Speaker or Bassford did am
not sure which, because Harrison wrote
Bills name in book. Whatever Speaker
Clark said to Harrison must have been
strong, because it is said around here
that the applications for jobs in the
Philippines beat anything that has ever
clogged the transpacific mails, and, on
the other hand. Bill. the unassuming
youth got one of the best jobs there.
Harrison has written to Bill twice ask
ing him to accept smaller positions. but
Bill refused. Still. the magic OF Champ
Clark's recommendation worked, and a
few days ago Francis Burton Harrison
cabled to Bill to get aboard ship IN
hurry and go over and be assistant sec
retary to the whole bloomin commission.
Now you CO." said Bessford.
