SAYS DEAL WAS
 THE RAWEST EVER
Fairbanks Socialist Newspaper Says Brooks Nomination Was Secur-
 ed By Machine Methods.

There is dissension in the ranks of the Socialists in Fairbanks and the Alaska Socialist, semimonthly newspaper published in Fairbanks, IS roasting Lena Morrow Lewis for the manner in which she conducted the nomination to select candidate for delegate to congress.
 Mrs. Lewis is accused fo attempt ing to build up political machine ,in order that she could deliver the nomination to her choice. If the facts as stated by the Socialist can be sub- stantiated Mrs. Lewis is not above resorting to methods which have been used to advantage by leaders of the older political parties. The Socialist says that Mrs. Lewis "sneaked" into Fairbanks last year to establish a residence. hoping to secure office but failing in that to be able to have Burns nominated.
 It will also be surprise to many to learn tudl III Iu0 CACSlAoA " AoAAA mate the candidate that only 97 votes were cast by the eleven locals. Valdez occupies third place with 17 votes. They were recorded for Brooks. When the representatives Of the locals met to count the votes and Mrs. Lewis learned that McCabe, the other candidate, had 97 votes to Brooks 95 she fshed out letter from Finnish local at Juneau, stat ing that the local had voted IS strong for Brooks. They had not sent any ballots and the letter was addressed to Mrs. Lewis personally and the So- cialist declares that Mrs. Lewis would not have used the letter if Brooks had been able to win with out resorting to 1t. The Olness To- cal, which cast 4S of the 97 votes. has refused to recognize Brooks as their candidate.
 The Socialist declares that Brooks will not receive the support of tho party in Fairbanks next November.

CARNA1|ON PARTY FOR
COL. WEED|h, AGED 50
Veteran Newspaperman, Register of
Land Office and Democratic Lead
err Honored on Anniversary.

Thomas Weedin, aged sixty, yeseet-
day all day. was the recipient of num-
berless congratulations and large
bundle containing exactly sixty fine
big Salt l;iver valley carnations. In
spite of the fact that it was a mile
stone IN his long and varied career,
Register Weedin of the United States
Land office, stayed on the job all yes
terday, except for the short time he
spent in accepting the good wishes and
flowers presented by the workers in the
land office-and James P. LAWN.
LAWN, as former clerk in the land
office, was numbered among the dom
ors of the flowers.
In accepting the BOUQUET, Col.
Weedin said that if the practice was
kept up, some day his good men and
true friends would have to buy him an
even ten dozen carnations and present
them in the same land office. Which
is as good as saying that he expected
to live to double his present age and
to last as long as the democratic ad-
ministration would last.

A BETTER WAY
TO ROOSEVELT
Southern Pacific Ready to
Fulfill Its Part Of De
touring Plan-Now Nee
esary to Put Phoenix
Roosevelt Link in Shape

Yesterday a letter from Mr. Epes
Randolph relative to the improve
ment of the Roosevelt road, was re-
ceived by Dwight B. Heard, one of
the committee appointed by the
Board of Trade last summer to con-
slider ways and means for getting
this road in good shape that the
tourist travel over the Southern Pa
cific might be Diverted by Globe to
Phoenix via the Roosevelt dam, and
then on to California.
The plan met with the approval of
the boards of trade both of Phoenix
and Globe, the county supervisors of
ella and Maricopa counties, as well
as of the state officials Mr. Chas
S. Fee, the general passenger agent
of the Southern Pacific, who was
here, thoroughly approved and on
his recommendation a large amount
of advertising of this scenic route is
being done by the Southern Pacific
railway.
Globe to Roosevelt is now in superb
condition and the forty honor men
who are now working on this portion
of the road, in behalf of the state,
can be transferred so as to put the
road in good condition from Roose-
welt to Mesa, shortly after the first
of the year The proposition now
confronting the various communities,
the state and the various boards of
supervisors, is how to supply the
money for the sustenance of this pri-
son labor while employed on the road,
and meeting of the directors of
the Board of Trade to be held joint
ly with the special road committee
the state officials and the Board of
Supervisors, has been called for
Thursday afternoon at four o'clock
1t is hard to realize the tremen
dous importance to the Salt River
Valley in securing the diversion of
this tourist traffic as proposed by
this automobile trip through the
welt dam and down through the val
ley. Globe has arranged for addi-
tional accommodations for these
tourists and if their trip can be
made comfortable and they are well
fed and well treated while on the
trip every man and woman is almost
bound to so away a full Pledged
booster for the Salt River Valley and
the enterprise of its people. The
meeting on Thursday should certainly
work out some practical plan for the
| Improvement of the road so that the
trip may be made as comfortable as
| possible.
