ALASKAN POLITICS.

Under the above heading, the fol lowing article appeared in the No veml 1T issue of The All-Alaska Re view and. while the writer does one who has taken part in many campaigns;
 Politics are again showing signs of life after smOldering since the = last congressional election as one Of Alaska's volcanoes slumbers fit fully between eruptions.
 The All-Alaska Review has stat ed its position as that of absolute neutrality in politics, and the writer, therefore comes to it with the feeling that unlike the usual run of Alaskan publications. it will pub fish what is said on any side or on all sides
 Tt has often been my desire to speak my mind about politics in the territory from the point of view of one who wishes to stand in future outside of aG controversy have seen in the political life of this fair Nolthland so much that is undesira- ble that l have no longer the wish to take either side, but l have the wish and I have it strong, to eX- press myself even in a disconnected manner about some of the incidents that l have been witness to.
 There is one man who was once candidate for an elective position in Alaska who failed but who after wards got rewarded by an appoint ment to a lucrative office and who told the writer that he got what he was looking for In other words that man ran for the elective office with no hope of succeeding in se- curing the majority of the votes, but in the hope that an appointment would come later. To analyze th:s fact IS to find that the man in question used hundreds upon hun dreds of voters in the territory for his own selfish ends. This serves only too well as an example of what some leaders of Alaskan poli tics aim at.
 Tt may be said that the strength of any political party in Alaska is n direct ratio to the seeming strength of the same party in the States just before presidential election Many of the men who voted for Wickersham in the last election bu; one immediately quit him when they learned that Woodrow Wilson had been elected President Wick ersham himself after having helG the position of District Judge under the Republican party, opposed that party as the independent candidate for congress when he lost his posi- tion on the bench, and today he is again a Republican since his new found love, the Bull Moose, died and left him without a protector. In his first election campaign he was opposed by John Corson, of Nome, the Republican candidate, John Roman, of Fairbanks. the Democratic candidate. and by Chilberg, the so- cialist or labor candidate. The world knows that Corson was not the man to represent the Republi- can party, but he was supported by some of the best men in the terri tory because the best men are just like other men and just as fervently
