THE MAJORITY OF THE PEOPLE
 ARE NOT FOOLS

The great majority of the people of Alaska are here to improve their con- ditions through the development of the resources of the territory They are not politicians, and did not come here seeking office. Their interest in government is the largest interest of thoroughly honest men, and men like themselves, who are interested in the tory, men who are not interested in politics from the viewpoint of office- holding or as a game" They are people who can not be fooled by flub- dub or the word-play balderdash of discarded politicians and misfits who seek to worm their way onto public payrolls by misrepresenting people and issues The people are not fools and they can not be as easily fooled as some people think. They know the genuine article from the sham.
 That is why people who have lived long in Alaska, who are interested in the territory and it's growth, the de- velopment of her institutions and the prosperity of her people, irrespective of their political affiliations, desire to see the Republicans of the territory choose John C. Mcbride for national committeeman. MT. Mcbride is not 3 politician He has given very little attention to personal politics. He is 2 busy man who has lived here for twenty-one years, and who has been connected most of that time with one institution-and he has piloted it to a foremost place among the business houses of the territory His interest is to see Alaska grow and prosper and her living conditions improve. He is the sort of man that all parties should push to the front, because he is representative of the best there is in Alaska.-EX.
