 The asperson cast upon the President by Wick, ersham is unworthy of a man of his attachments ana ability Nothing is more ineXcusaoe' even m pomt- cal controversies. than wul misrepresentatlon MT Wickersham knows, every citizen should know that even the President of the United States cannot pledge" any legislation He can recommend legsla' tion and he can use the tremendous power Of his office in furtherng legislative action; but that IS as far as his powers extend adn these are seldom used except on matters Of the greatest gravity ln ms message Of December Q 1913. President Wilson said:
 duty faces us with regard to Alaska
 which seems to me very pressing and very
 imperative: perhaps should say double
 duty. fir t concerns both the political and
 material development of the Territory The
 people of Alaska should be given the full Ter
 rtoral form of government and Alaska, as
 storehouse should be unlocked.
 There is a decided difference between pledge and recommendation. But compare that straighttor' ward declaration Of the duty of the nation toward AL aska with the meaningless statement with which Mir. Hughes whose professed follower MT. Wickersham is dismissed the whole subject Of Alaska Tn his Seattle speech. Said the Republican canddate
