COBB AND BATCHELLER SPEAK IN
 WRANGELL

i The first political speaking in connection with the coming pri- mary election to take place in Wrangell occurred Tuesday even- 1 ing when J. H. Cobb and w. w. Batchelier of Juneau addressed a good audience in the Red Mems Hall.
 The present Democratic admin istration in Alaska, with a fev exceptions, recognizes Delegate Charles A. Sulzer as the leader of the party in Alaska. Within the past twelve months a breach has occurred in the ranks of the party. Governor Strong, William Maloney, and others are at vari- ance with Thos. J. Donohue and other prominent Democrats who are considered as being in har- mony with Delegate Sulzer. The Democrats who are opposed to Delegate Sulzer and his adhererts ts have undertaken to defeat him in the primary election to be held on April 90. Their candidate for i the nomination for Delegate to Congress is William Maloney. At same time these anti-SulzerDemo- crats are working for the nomi- nation of the following candid dates for the Territorial legislature: F. B. Harrison (Senate), w. w. Batcheller, Leo G. Young, E. L. Cobb. Mrs. Grace Bishop.
 It wal in the interest of the i ticket just named that Messrs. Cobb and Batcheller addressed Wrangell audience.
 MT. Batcheller was the first speaker. He spoke in the interest of good government but did not go into any details. He was fol lowed by MT. Cobb who asserted that he too was speaking in the interest of clean politics and against ring rule.' He paid his respects to the National Com mitteeman, always calling him Thomas Judas" Donohoe. He attack ed the record at Washing ton of Delegate Charles A. Sul- ger. He declared that the bill which the Delegate introduced for the regulation and protection of the fisheries of Alaska H R. 9092 is even more iniquitous than the Alexander Bill which caused so many protests to be sent to Washington. He said that the Bill if passed as introduced, would mean the end of the independent fisherman in Alaska.
 Mir. Cobb blamed Delegate Sul- ger for Alaska being excepted from the provisions of the Ship ping Bill admitting foreign ship ping to coastwise trade. He de- clared that if there is any stretch of coast on the North American continent that needed the use Of foreign bottoms it is Alaska, but that Alaska was excepted on a request from MT. J. H. Bunch, manager of the Alaska Steamship Company, while Delegate Suizer was either silent or agreed to Alaska being excepted. Mr. Cobb pointed out that as a result of Alaska being excepted from the benefits of the shipping bill tons of fish recently routed at Juneau because it was not possible to ship them on either of the two foreign vessels that were in port lat the time that the fish should have been shipped.
 At the close of his address MT. Cobb stated that it was the long, est speech he ever made in his life. [He spoke about an hour and thirty minutes. ] In the course of his lengthy address, during which he was given the
