Mrs Cornelia TempletOn Hatcher, who will be recalled by Alaskans as having been more or less connected with politics in Alaska during tn" past two years. has issued an "opcn letter to the moral forces of Alaska. giving her reasons for supporting James WiCkoTsham in his efforts to be elected delegate in congress from Alaska. In this letter she makes statements that are questionable, to say the lcos'. and only miss being classified by q harsher term by req son of the fact that they may have lccn made in good faith in spite of the fact that they show q lamentablo lack of knowledge on the subjects which she discusses.
 But the rash statements made by the lady. were they made in her own name alone. might pass as one of the minor incidents of political cam paign scarcely worth mentioning. But they are made on stationery of the Alaska Woman's Christian Temper, ance rn0n embclliShed with the wcll-known motto of the organ ization. and bearing the name of the officers of the Union, and signed by the author as "President of the Alaska w. (. T. U." It must be taken for granted, therefore, that the circular is something in the nature of an of ficial document of the organization. The circular says in part:
 Judge WiCkersham not protesting to be prohibtionist. but recognizing that the will of the people is supreme in all matters of public policy, imme- diately following the decisive dry vote in 1916, introduced in congress and secured the passage. in record breaking time, of a prohibition law for Alaska that is conceded to be one of the best ever written. He stands for the permananCe of that law and it's absolute enforcement. In direct contrast. his opponent, Mir Sulzer. claiming to be prohibitionist. has, during his incumbency of Judge Wick ershGms seat in congress, introduced in congress a home rule bill that provides for the possible re peal of the prohibition law through resubmission by the legislature"
 Another excerpt from this interest ing document is as follows.
 "The committee on privileges and elections delegated by congress to pass upon the merits of contested election cases. has decided that the action of the Democratic machine bosses in wilfully deprving Judge Wickcrsham of the seat in congress to which he was elected by the peo- pie Of Alaska in 1916, was illegal and unwarranted."
 And the circular concludes with the rather undignified quotation of
The Cordova daily times., 1918-10-04

went up from residents Of Alaska against the enactment of the law with out giving them a chance to approve or reject it. If memory serves cor rectly. James Wickersham who was then delegate, secured the postpone ment of the vote on the measure until the people of Alaska could pass upon it by referendum vote This was done at the instance of his constitu- ents, and was perfectly proper. The bill might eventually have been passed by congress even without the consent of the people of Alaska
 Now the home rule bill of Delegate Sulzcr pftvides for the enlargement of the power of the territory in many things. The right to control the liquor traffic is one which is exercised by every state in the Union, and was exercised by the territories prior 10 statehood. It is an obligation that can not be shrked or left to the fed. cral government until such time as the nation takes up that duty by con. stituti0nal amendment It is quite un. likely that Alaska ever will be wet" again, but it should not be forgotten that this question is one which per. tains to the people of Alaska alone No power at Washington has a moral right to force objectionable legisla- tion upon a self-governing people, no matter how mcritorious 1t may be.
The Cordova daily times., 1918-10-04

It may be of interest to Mrs. Hatcher to know that WiCkcrsham when delegate. introduced state, hood bill for Alaska. It is not probable that 1t was introduced in good faith, as it was not expected to pass. But had it passed. the state of Alaska, like every other state in the Union. would determine it's own course on the liquor question, just as it would on the sui frag" question, the tax question, it's criminal code and it's civil code It would have required the same pro- Cedure 10 oyerturn the dry law under the Wickersham bin as under the Sul- ger bill
 There are duties and responsibili- ties which self-government imposes that can not be shrked. just as there are rights and privileges that are to be enjoyed. When Alaska undertakes complete selfgovernment it will as sume these spOnsbilities and not rely on d paternal government cen tered thousands of miles away. Dele g." Sulzer's home rule bill is a meri- torious one. And he or any other man. in the drawing up of legislation for Alaska. would be assuming too much were he to rclinquish any of these rights or any of these obliga- tions in behalf of the territory.
The Cordova daily times., 1918-10-04

This incident indicates the desper- ate tactics being resorted to by Wick ersham in his campaign of misrepre- sentIilon He and his supporters are well aware of the falsity of the con clusiOns arrived al in the circular, just as they are on other questions before the voters. It is d case of any port in storm" with the "Repub- lican' candidate this year.

'homcly old adagc." as the lady poli- tician puts it, "Nevcr send a boy on d mans errand." meaning. presumably. to classify Wickersham as the man" and Sulzer as the boy"
 When the fair sex concern them selves in politics Chivalry suggests that they to given credit for the best | of intentions. IL will be difficult to i follow those prOmptings in this in ! stance. lt will be remembered that Mrs. Hatcher came into public notice ! first III Alaska when she stumped the i territory in behalf Of the dry" law. ."' when later sh" arrOgatcd to her. self Ih" credit for the passage of that measure. She may have won some votes for tn" prohibition law in some , sections, hu. il is not too much to say that her methods of campaigning , had the very opposite effect in other communities that she visited And as to the credit for the passage of the law, il may as well be given where i it rightfully belongs-to the sour. dOuEhs and rOughncCks of Alaska who had determined to put the saloon out of business; and they would have done this without the assistance of this lady politician.
 Ms. Hatcher next made her ap- p'lrInCc on the scene in the role .. supporter of Maloney as d candi- date for the nomination for delegate in opposition to MT Sulzer It was | openly charged that she was actu. ated more by a desire to aid Wicker sham than to have Maloncy elected delegate. Mrs Hatchers interference was not taken kindly. and Maloncy was overwhelmingly defeated Since then the lady has not been heard of in public, and it was thought the re buke handed to her for her attempt to drag the w. (. T. |. into a politi- cal fight had been effective. Now she comes out in the open in support of Wickersham. although. as she admits, he does not profess to be prohibi. tionist
 One of two things is certain: Either Mrs. Hatcher is not sincere in her at titude in politics, and is being used as an instrument by a willy politician. or she is woefully ignorant of the first principles of constitutional gov crnment Her main quarrel against Delegate Sulzer Is. as she says that he Introduced in congress a home rule bill that provides for the possi- hlc repeal Of the prohibition law"
 The Alaska prohibition law was passed by the United States congress because the Alaska enabling act does not allow the territory to control the liquor traffic. When the bill was first discussed in congress a great protest

The fact that Mrs HatCher's letter is printed under the name Of the Alaska Woman's Christian Temper ance Union suggests the natural query as to whether the funds of that or
 ganization are being used for spread ing political propaganda, and if SO, do its members approve of it? If not, whose money pays for the printing and circulating of this literature?
