FAIRBANKS INTRODUCES sEcTIoNALIsN

Word comes from Fairbanks that the Wickersham party has inaugurated campaign of sectionalism in behalf of Delegate Wickersham. They advertise that WICKERSHAM HAS GIVEN ALL OF HIS PLUMS TO FAIRBANKS. AND FAIRBANKS SHOULD STAND BY WICKERSHAAL
 Then they proceed to say: "If Delegateship goes to the coast all the Kings horses and all the Kings men could not bring it back again"
 There you have it Fairbanks has determined that the Delesateship must be retained at Fairbanks be- Fairbanks gets the plums. and as necessary step in Keeping it there it must not be permitted to slip away for single term.
 The Empire does not believe that the thinking people Of Fairbanks adhere to any such doctrine and it believes they will indicate it at the polls tomorrow does believe that the Wickersham party of Fairbanks is organized for that purpose among oth- ers-it is organized for the purpose Of running the Territory and getting all it can It wants all the pums for Fairbanks. including the receipts from the First Divisions forests It wants all the pums and wants the coast country to pay all the taxes.
 Don't make any mistake about this-the patriotic thinking people Of Fairbanks do not believe in this doctrine Of SECTIONALISM Delegate Wickersham DOES. and so do the leaders of the Wickersham party. and both have followed it for years They are forced to admit in the open because of the develop ment Of intelligent and informed Suzer sentiment at Fairbanks
