THE CANNERIES, THE FISHERMEN AND THE DIS
 PATCH

The Dispatch Wednesday contained, as it has con ained frequently late big political advertisement which says
 DON'T TURN THE FISHERIES OVER TO THE
 PACKERS COMBINE"
 This same edition of the Dispatch contains the advertisements of nine packing companies. These ad- the canneries and others have been running regularly in the Dispatch since last spring. They all solicited, and they were given the Dispatch, many of them, at least, to help it along.
 The Dispatch is the Wckte official organ in this secton and it's owner, self nominated Wickite candi- date for the Territorial Senate, is Wickershams man. ager hereabouts, and the who wants to "boss the Republican party in Alaska.
 The Dispatch and Wickersham are pretending to be making the fight for the fishermen in this Territory. Net the Dispatch is being kept alive by the canneres Do the fishermen think the canneres afraid of Wickersham the Dispatch? If why do they give it advertising just ito help it along?" Certainly no one would say they do it because it is such good newspaper that the country could not get along with out it. Then why the canneries keeping Wicker shams organ alive?
