 No one shall gamble. Penalty $1O and 10 days in jail

GOVERNMENT NOT NEGLIGENT WHEN
 SIR ROGER HUNG
Secretary Humility Out with StateSment Denying Charges
 from London.

LONG BRANCH. N. J.. Oct 24.- A letter from Secretary Tumulty to Michael Francis Doyle. attorney for Sir Roger Cacement. containing a denial that the American govern ment was negligent In its efforts to save Sir Roger from being executed after his conviction for treason in England. has been made public.
 Mr. Tumulty replied to Q letter from MT. Doyle. saying Mrs. New man. Sir Rogers sister. had received information from London that her brothers life might have been spared had the resolution urging clemency adopted by the United States Sem ate been forwarded 10 the British foreign office more promptly.
 Statements Without Foundation
 Particular stress was laid" says Mr. Tumulty's letter "as recall, by the British government on the fact that Irish prisoners in Ger many who refused to assist Case ment had been punished. The state ments made in letters 10 Mrs. New man that had the resolution been presented in time her brothers life would have been spared were utter ly and entirely without foundation.
 You can state authoratively that the ambassador read me the actual message from his government stating the resolution had been considered and that the conclusion had been reached that clemency could not be granted"

REPUBLICANS CROOKED
Shackleford Is Roasted and An Officials Are
 Condemned in
 Rank Terms.

SEWARD, Oct. -Delegate James Wickersham allowed his feelings to overcome him last night, 1t is re- grettable to say, and he used cer- tainly unparllamentary language in dealing with his opponents. This may be the reason why the old en- thusiasm for Wickersham was ab- sent at the meeting. The hall was crowded in the beginning and most of the people stayed Co the end but the speech did not seem like the same old speeches that Mir. Wicker sham made foes as well as friends admire. He alluded to Tom Dono- hoe and Lewis Shackleford as man gy politicians" and, somehow the crowd didn't seem to Ike 1t.
 The reporter for the Gateway went to the meeting with the intention of reporting it sympatheticalIy but it is impossible. He attacked Tom Donohoe and Colonel Richardson in la manner that rather repelled and made friends for the men attacked Tom Donohoe is admitted by every body to be good fellow and a wor- thy national committeeman of the Democrats. They can say what they like about Lewis Shackleford but "mangy politician" is hardly what the representative of. Alaska should call anybody unless he was very mad.

 >At a meeting held in our hall June 9th, 1916, all members being present motion was made, sec Onded and unanimously carried give Senator Charles A. suzer Of the Alaska Legislature entire sup port for Delegate to Congress
 Mr. sulzer has been resident here for the past fourteen years. Until the year he was gener al manager for the Alaska Industrial Company, but last year he has operated the mines himself as lessee. During all these fourteen years he has proved himself a friend of Labor.
 He gave the elghthour day of his own free will in 1902 upon starting operations in Alaska. and this was long before anyone else had the same rule in Alaska He has always paid the highest wages in this District given everybody square deal and treat ed everybody There is not man who ever worked in Senator Sulzers camp who will not speak of him in the highest terms and we know from long observation that he has the qualifications to ably represent us in Congress.
 The foregoing are only a few of the main facts of Mir. Sulzer's character which have endeared him to the workers, so wish you to rally to his sup port and leave no obstacle in the way for his election for Delegate to Congress from Alaska.
 With best wishes to you, we remain
