CAMPAIGN OF
 REPUBLICANS
 IS LAUNCHED

The first gun of the political cam paign in Cordova was fired last night at the Empress theater, when six hun dred people listened attentively to the speeches delivered by Senator Dan A. Sutherland and Hon. John A. Rust gard, Republican nominees for dele gate to congress and attorney general, respectively. While neither pretend ed to be spell binders they presented ing manner and left no doubt as to their sincerity and knowledge of their subject matter. The keynote of the speeches may be summed up in "the developing of Alaska" especially fea- turing fair play for labor, assistance for settlers, the regulation of the fish ing industry, more liberal appropria- tions for roads and trails and a gener- al policy which in every way will tend territory. No personalities were in dulged in and the audience was in sympathetic accord with the masterly manner in which the needs of the ter ritory were set forth and the advan- tage that would accrue to it's residents by the election of the entire Republi- can ticket at the November election MT Sutherland said in part:
 2ssHaving been so long engaged in the mining industry It is natural that I should be interested in this propos- ed premium on gold. You know last year the United States used almost tWenty-tWo million dollars more of gold in manufacturing and the arts, not in currency, than it produced, and economists reason that some of that twenty-two million came from melted coin. The output must be stimulated in some way.
 The forests of the U. s. are ex- hausted and manufacturers are look ing to Alaska for their pulp. Bureau regulations can be modified by the
 
 president Another matter is the oil industry. l believe the United States government ought to drill for oil in Alaska.
 'I have long had in mind the mat ter of change in the classification of commissioners. I have long believed U. s. commissioners should in some remote sections be paid a salary, living salary, a salary that would at tract capable men, not necessarily at torneys.
 'I believe in the election of all of ficials, at least all territorial officials by the people. I believe the men and women of Alaska could as we'll elect the superintendent of schools as the governor can appoint and 1 should go to congress with the idea of asking for the privilege of electing the governor of Alaska.
