1t was in 1906 that the Rev. Mr.

take pastoral charge of Calvary par
ish, and no minister who ever served
an Americas congregation was more
more universally popular among the
whole people or better loved by his
own. Gifted with the faculty Of
making and retaining strong friend
ships, he soon ingratiated himself in
to the good will of all with whom he
came in contact, and under his direc-
ton Calvary Episcopal parisf has
made unparalleled progressive strides.

man who loves learning for the
sake of knowledge gained, no issue

Committeeman Says Cor. porations Have Not

DO NOT NEED MONEY
Su|zer Was Elected with out Corporation Money and Will Again Win in
 the Same Way.

Thomas J. Donohoe,, Democratic
 National Committeeman for Alaska, who was in Juneau last night. said
 last nights Dispatch's statement that he had received no money fer campaign purposes from the larga
 corporations operating in Alaska h
 absolutely true. Tt is not true, how. ever" said MT. Donohoe, that any
 of them turned me down. I have
 not asked for dollar from any cor. poratfon or officersof corporation
 for campaign purposes" 4 "Mr Sulzer was elected Delegate to Congress two years ago without
 dollar of corporation money" said
 MT. Donohoe, "and he will be elected
 without dollar of corporation mon- ley this year" E, Mir. Donohoe continued:
 "Mr Sulzer was in the first place nominated for Delegate to Congress- as the unanimous choice in the lafs-
 est and most generally attended convention that ever convened In Alaska. He was elected to Congress as result of 8 direct appeal to the people of the Territory on the issues of the campaign. He submitted his candidacy for renomination to the people of Alaska at primary elecs
 tion where every member of his par. | ty and the Independent voters of the Territory had opportunity to give free and frank expression to their preference. The same sort of campaign of misrepresentation and yilification that is being. conducted against him now was conducted against him then. and by the sam4 people. Mir Sulzer stood on his record in Congress. and refused to
 leave his post at Washington The, voters of Alaska. generally attended and voted at the primary election in every precinct in every division..
 The endorsement of Mir. Sulzer's rec. ord was so emphatic that he re-
 ceived more votes in the Democratic
 primary than the combined votes Of
 his competitor for the Democratic
 nomination, Judge Wickersham in the
 Republican primary and the Social
 ist candidate combined. f s,sar l No man was ever nominated for
 office anywhere where the call to
 lead came more genuinely from tho people. without dictation or coercion. I than was Charles A. Sulzer at the
 Alaska primary last April Mir. Sul-
 ger has every right to look forward
 to the election with every conf.
 dencd" a.- ss smg MT. Donohoe was accompanied by
 Mrs. Donhoe and their daughtes, Miss Ruth. They had spent . con-
 siderable portion of the Summer in
 Washington, Oregon and California.
 They left their son at college at Portland. ~ f ss- We went as far East as Spokane
 and Lake Tahoe" This in answer
 to the intimation that he had gone
 Ito Washington to fix up political fences.
