CROSBY HERE;
 SPEAKS TONIGHT
 AT AUDITORIUM

AttOTucy -IcucIdi NcoI6c NAi6ooy arrived in Fairbanks yesterday after noon from his trip to the outlying districts during which time he made several addresses to the residenV there.
 The trip of MT. Grigsby through the interior is meeting with success, every place at which he has spoken according him a welcome, evidencirg g the interest that is being taken in the present political situation. In Mr. Grigsby Delegate Sulzer has an able champion. . for his cause.
 Scarcely in the interior two weeks he has covered large amount of ground and addressed hundreds of people. At Nenana his first speech was delivered to an overflowing hall During the course of his remarks he was frequently interrupted by en- thusiastic applause from those pres ent. During his stay there he made a trip out the line in order that the construction crews might not lose valuable time and addressed the en- tire crews of the various camps. Among the laboring men he was we'll received and made many friends for the Democratic party On his return to Nenana he made a second address in a larger hall and this, too, was filled to overflowing by the fair.minded citizens who wished to hear both sides of story. Had he been enabled to remain longer at the railroad town it is probable that a still larger audience would have greeted him at a third address.
 His trip to Brooks was productive of much good. The citizens there turned out enma1fe to listen to his presentments of tie issues and almost everyone who was present expressed the opinion that for straight-for- ward and sincere talk the one of MT. Grigsby's would be hard to beat Plainly worded and devoid of mud slinging the representative of the Democratic party made a lasting i'm pression that will be evidenced at the balloting booths on election day
 On his return trip to Fairbanks he made trip to Chantanika, ap- bearing before a large and enthusi- astic crowd. For many miles the voters came to hear the truth of many doubtful issue. That they were enlightened was evidenced by the way in which the meeting broke up-with prolonged applause and promising expressions of approval for the work done by the delegate in Alaska's interests.
 With the workingman ever in mind MT. Grigsby made a side trip from Happy junction to the construction camp, meeting the men in person and then delivering an address in behalf of the delegate. The men at this camp were much impressed with the speakers presentments and un- doubtedly some converts were made to the Democratic standard
 The attorney-eeneral will address the people of Fairbanks this evening at the Auditorium. He will meet fairly all the issues brot forward by James Wickersham during the ad- dress recently made and will com- pare the records of the two men as representatives for Alaska at the capitol. MT. Grisby does not believe in mud-slinging tactics. the time usu. ally taken up with that kind of argument being devoted to more in. teresting issues, and those attend. ing the meeting tonight will be pre- sented with facts, not slime.
 The committee having the meeting in charge announces that the pres ence of the ladies of the camp is especially desirable. Nothing objec- tionable will be presented in the re marks of the speaker and no one will be offended. The meeting will be called to order at 8:3O sharp.
