Six prominent Hobson leaders have
deemed it necessary to defend the pro-

They state first that in the campaign
of 1907 Captain Hobson was not invited
10 participate. They declare that in the
amendment campaign of 1909 Captain
Hobson did not vote because 1t was
deemed probable that by speaking he
could win more votes than by casting
his own ballot. As to whether or not
he gave Col. II. S. d. Mallory warm
support they advise the people to IN
ouire of Colonel Mallory.
In the statement of these six leaders
no reference is made to the allegation
that Captain Hobson, after pledging his
support to Capt. Frank S. White, a state
wide prohibitionist, he. without notice,
withdrew that support and declared pub

TRUST LAWS SHOULD NOT

ACT, SAYS THE PRESIDENT

Washington, February 19.-Presdent
Wilson desires that bills dealing with
the trust problem be so phrased and
adapted to the decisions already rendered
by the United States supreme court on
the Sherman antitrust law that the ef-
,ficiency of that statute neither shall be
impaired nor complicated, but properly
supplemented.
Callers at the White House TODAY we're
told by the President that this was the
principal object of his conference last
night with Attorney General McReynolds
He explained that the Attorney General
whose counsel and advice was being
sought by congressional committees had
given him a detailed idea of the extent
to which some of the things now pro-
posed might conflict with the sherman
law.

LOOKS
 GOOD ID BRANDON

Thomas E. Brandon, for twenty years Alaska representative of the San Francisco house of Murphy Grant and company, comes to Alaska this time as an optimist. "The outlook for excellent business conditions were nev- CT so good as they are now," he said yesterday. He says business is being restored to a basis that is natural and sound, and that it will be healthier than ever before. He gives the cred it for the improving conditions to President Woodrow Wilson.
 "The passage of the currency law and the new tariff" he said, constitute the best work that has been done by the government for legitimate busi. ness in our lifetime. The new tar if has taken away the artificial props and special advantages that some com binatlons have enjoyed to the disad. vantage of those not in them and placed all business on. a basis where natural laws control. The currency law, will provide the business of the country with an elastic money system that will expand with the necessities of business and that cannot be con- trolled by combinations of spectators.
 "All that is needed to simplify the business situation is to do away with the interlocking directorates and un' loose the clutch of the trusts. That is being done rapidly now that the capitalists of the country have learned that now we have President who knows just what he wants and how to get it, and whose sole desire is to restore business to the basis of natur' al conditions.
 q have always been a Republican but am very proud that followed a hunch' and voted for Wilson. He Is just the mannthe situation demanded for the Presidency.
 q will say, further, that I have just returned from trip that covered Cal ifornia, Nevada, Utah, Idaho, Oregon and Washington, and found that prac tically all the business men that have come in contact with agree with me that good times of the right sort are coming; and they all bestow merited praise on the administration for the work that it has done."
 Mir. Brandon says Juneau never looked as good to him as it1does now
 Mir. Brandon will leave on the Ge orgia on it's next trip for sitka. After spending a few days with the trade there he will return to Juneau.

Congress May Afford
 All Necessary Relief

 The matter of securing an amend men or amendments to the Organic Act was taken up by the Governor with Delegate JALlto W ANASA oAAsAAA eA'1 S~A ator Key PiStman. chairman of the Senate committee on Territories, and telegrams were also sent to Senators Bruner, Breeding and Roden as to the Territorial situation. The reply re- ceived from Senators Bruner and Breeding today. which indicates that Congress will afford the necessary re- lief. is as follows:
 "December telegram received. Have personally conferred with Attorney General. Key Pittman and Houston, chairman of Senate and House com mittees on Territories. and Delegate wickersham. Believe that extra ses- sion can be averted either by formal approval by Congress of revenue and poll tax laws or amendment of Organ Ic Act or both. Advise you to with hold calling of extra session until fur ther developments. ROden not re- turned from Europe"
