wlcKERsHAM EvADEs

Delegate Wickersham's most ardent admirers must admit that his speech last night absolutely failed to meet the issues It was a speech Of evasion and apology It lacked absolutely any assurance Of con- structiye policy was forecesed in his platform. he abandoned practically all Of his former positions. and accepted the position Of the Democratic party of Alas ka as represented by the candidacy Of Senator Suzer in this campaign Thus, he repudated his eight years record in Congress and of course could not square his record with the changed order.
 After years of opposition to full Territorial form of government the Delegate declared that he avors it and he tried shuut responsibility for failure to get it off onto the party in power. He declared that he had introduced the bill for it, and asked why Congress did not pass it. He did not because he could not. deny the charge that he-the who gets $500 year to represent the people Of Alaska had done nothing to press the measure through the committees or houses Of Congress. He simply asked why the Democrats did not get it? Of the answer is that the Delegate from Alaska, the man chosen to represent the people at Washington. the man who is supposed have charge of Alaskan measures there. was not in sympathy with the peo- ples demand for it. He opposed the proposition open 1y until he introduced the bill for it this year. and then did nothing just be has done nothing for most of his other bills The attempt of the Delegate to convince his audience that the failure of the bill was due to opposition from the administration was such silly subtertuge that t but exposed the hard lines into Wnlcn ms Otce-Seeklng procession mas Ldi- len. He based his charge the fact that the head of the Fisheries Bureau opposed single section of the bill Yet. he has asken the President or the bill. Yet he never has asked the President or to give 1t aid. He never asked for committee hearing.
 The Delegate claimed sole credit for securing the passage of the Alaska railroad bill The fact is the bill was introduced in the Senate by Senator Chamberlain. and passed that branch of Congress be- fore it passed the House When it passed the Senate it carried S4OOOOOOO instead Of SS5OOOOOO as Wick ersham's bill provided The bill was managed in the House by Judge Houston, of Tennessee. and its pass age was the direct result of it's being labeled ad mnistration measure. Delegate wickersham worked for the bill of course just he supported the Juneau school bonding bin after Councilman King had reached Washington and started to work. His claim for credit for the railroad bill has no basis than his claim for credit for securing the passage of the school bond ing bill
 The Delegates whole speech was a mass of self glOriication and evasion He utterly failed to meet single issue that has been made against him. and by endorsing the position of the Democratic platform on the issues of the day, he confessed that he has been wrong on the issues in the past
 The absence of anything approaching enthusiasm at the meeting was very natural consequence of the fact that there was nothing to enthuse

wIcKERsHAM DoDGEs ON SCHOOL BILL

Delegate wickersham gave considerable time last night to an attempt to claim credit for the passage of the Juneau school bonding bin but. as in many other things he completely evaded the issue He said that he had introduced the bill in Congress early in the year. and he worked with Mr. King when the latter reached Washington.
 But the Delegate did not explain why the bill had slept quietly in Congress all spring and summer. He did not explain why we had never heard from Washington a word about the bill until Mayor Stew art began telegraphing and writing him about it. He did not say word about the letter he wrote Mayor Stewart July 2S. saying that it would be impossible to do anything for the bill at this session of Con- gress-that there had not been meeting of the committee for a month and would be no more meet iugs at this session
 The fact is the bill as dead as door nail until Mir King appeared in Washington and the Dele gate said so in his letter to Mayor Stewart. It was dead because the Delegate had done nothing to give it life But King arrived in Washington. got Senator Pittman to introduce the bill in the Senate got the bill passed by the Senate. got two meetings of the committee that the Delegate said would not
