VALDEZ FOR SULZER
 AND AN ORGANIZATION
 MAN FOR GOVERNOR

VALDEZ, May 18-To The Elm pire.-The Prospector is unswerv- ingly behind Sulzer as the represen- tative. The differences engendered in the heat of the late campaign should be forgotten, and the entire people should stand behind him for development and progress. Strife here would result in making his eff forts at the national capital unavail- ing, and work to the detriment of all.
 The Prospector believes the Dem ocratic organization is above petty politics, and the candidate it se- lects for the Governorship will be the best man possible to work in harmony with the Delegate to Con- gress and the party leaders. With this belief firmly fixed the Pros pector will give every support to whenever is chosen by the organi- zation.

Well Known Mechanic Died Suddenly This Morning from a
 Stroke.
APOPLEXY CLAIMS MAN
Had Been EmIpoyed in the North for the Past 20 Years in Various
 Positions.

Fred T. Stevenson, principal own CT of the Union Iron Works, and one of the best known mechanics of this section, died suddenly this morn ing at o'clock from a stroke of apoplexy. Death occurred in his room over the Union Iron Works. At the time of his seizure, Elliott Prem ming, who occupied the bed with him was awakened, and at once summoned Dr. L. o. Sloane. Stev- enson was dead before the arrival of the doctor.
 Mr Stevenson was a man 5 years of age and was a native of Califor- uia. He came to Alaska about twen. ty years ago and was employed as master mechanic for the White Pass and Yukon Railway for number of years. More recently he was master mechanic at Thane during the period of construction of the big mill and later held the same position at the Perseverance mine.
 He resigned from the latter posi- ton to devote his entire time to the business of the Union Iron Works which he established several years ago and which required his attention Stevenson is survived by two brothers who live on the Chan nel, one being L. R. Stevenson, of Thane. His father died in California little over a year ago.
 Mir. Stevenson was member of Mt Juneau Lodge No 174, Masons, and the funeral services will be con ducted by that body from the Odd Fellows Hall at 2:30 o'clock Mon day afternoon. Interment will be in the Masonic plot of Evergreen ceme- tery.
