Leadership
(By Earl C. Jameson.)

paign for Republican National Com

ron is being backed by Seattle
politicians who were former residents

William A. Gilmore, former resident

Republican National Committeeman,
Emery Valentine and T. M. Reed for
delegates to the Republican National
Convention, and pledged Alaska S
votes in the Republican Convention
to Gen. Leonard Wood for the Pres
idential nomination.
Heron was present at the meeting
and pledged most of the high Fed
eral offices in Alaska to the Seattle
Alaskans who were present at the
meeting and their friends in this
city.
Visiting Alaskans in Seattle, of un-
impeachable veracity are responsible
for the statements contained herein,
and men who were at the meeting
and participated in it, have told OF
the proceedings in detail.
These Alaskans point to the sig
nificant fact that Senator w. f

and others have charged that Gen
Wood is backed by the largest cam

says. the principal hackers of Gen
