SEWARD. Sept 15.-George B. Grlgsby. Democratic nominee for AL torney-General. speaking to an im- mense and enthusiastic audience here last night. in addition to laying bare the record of eDlegate Wick. ersham as Delegate to Congress and on the issues which confront the people Of Alaska, demolished the at ,acks upon himself by George D.. Schofeld, Republican nominee for Attorney-General, and showed that he (Grigsby) not only did not perse- cute longshoremen at Nome but that he is the regular attorney for or ganlzed labor at Nome and is re: ceiying its support in his race for Attorney-General.
 Wiek's Fight Pretended.
 Mir. Grlgsby spoke for two hours presenting an array of facts, backed by the recorded proof. showing that Netherlands pretende1 fight on the Guggenheim and salmon cannery in- .erests to be inslncere and for cam palgn purposes only. He proved that lt was Wickersham who was respon- -ible for tho insertion of the word fish" in the Alaska organic Act limitations. limiting the powers of the Alaska Legislature in that re- gard. He showed that Wickersham was also responsible for the other limitations in the act which made it less than 8 full Territorial form of government measure

 Mir. Grigsby utterly Cemolizhed Scholeld's charge that Grigsby had oersecuted Nome longshoremen, and For proof oi his assertions he called upon several men who were in the luiience and who were formerly members of the Nome Longshore- mems Union. These men, without exception, verified the statements of MT. Grigsby, and all of them prom ised 10 support him and to do all within their power to help elect him. He characterized Schofeld md W. A. Gilmore as hyphenated Aloskans who reside and practice law in Se- atte.
 Supported sulzer.

 Always Tall Ehder.
 He said that Wickersham had al- ways been on the tail end of all pro- posed progressive legislation for AL aska, and that with this tail hold he had spent more time pulling back than he did in urging forward move ment
