Charles A. Sulzer.
(Cordova Times.)

(CordOva Times.)
 The death of Charles A. Sulzer personal every resident of Alaska Even his political enemies moved expression of grief and of sym pathy with his sorrowing family. man in the prime of life he had shown himself be true Alaskan, meeting every emergency with the spirit of the true pioneer.
 Called from the prosecution of his personal business affairs the Territorial Legislature, he had shown such marked ability and enthusiasm in the work shaping the destinies of the infant territory that he became the certain choice of his party for the nomination for Delegate Alaska at the national capital. With particular training or apti- tude for the of politics, he made such splendid impression that in his first campaign he almost over threw his veteran opponent in spite of his of intrenchment in the position, and compelled that experienced politician to extend his activities in the second campaign, with the result that the belated turns, received the day of his death, showed that he had been successful.
 There has been disposition evident compare the work in Congress of MT Sulzer with his predecessor, the dsparagement of the former. An unprejudiced view, however, will reveal that Suzers work in behalf of the Territory during the year and half that he served in the House of Representatives of the ut most importance, and brought out qualities of di!i- gence, far-sghtedness and grasp of public affairs which were in the nature of a surprise to his friends He hard worker, and there is little work of looking after the interests of his constituents taken in conjunction with the immense labor involved in fighting the contested election case greatly weak ened his not too strong constitution and hastened the end
 And in that contest case, brought face face with arrant a lot of buncombe and insincerity as ever was laid before Congress- Delegate Sulzer made enviable reputation. His straightforward manly ad- dress to the house in refutaon of the absurd of his opponent at once stamped him of marked ability and conscientious public servant
 The Territory of Alaska can ill afford to lose such men as Charles A. Sulzer.

IF

If the Fourth Legislative assembly fails to make becauseit has given too much attention to the ele- ment inethe population which has been trying to ob- struct government in Alaska, and make those who charged with the responsibilities of government unpopular. Too much time has been frittereA away with politicians who have sought to the Legisla- to punish the Governor and others who have opposed the political ambitions of Judge Wckersham in past campaigns There has been too much dickering and trading and sparring for position by personal poli ticians who hope there may be change in the poli- tical complexion of the next National administration and who hope personally to profit thereby.
 If there had been less effort the part of some to put the Governor and others in hole. and more of the spirit of cooperation the part of all better results would have been obtained Gov. Riggs pre- sented to the Legislature in his annual message-the best message by long way that presented an, Alaskan Legislatures fine constructive pro- gram, that would count for the development and whole given the Governor the support that the high consideration of the Territorys would warrant.
 great deal, however, depends upon the result of the next few days. The Legislature yet make d very credtable record if it will It has done some from doing things that good There is yet time for it to do more very good work and to prevent plans that would be very harmful
