WILLS WILLING
TO BOX CHAMP

NEW YORK. Dec. 22-"Iu fight Jack
Dempsey or any other man in the world,
Black or white, and stand ready to go
TO any part Of the globe to fight for the
championship said Harry Wills. the
big cOlOred heavyweight, in answer to
a query today as to whether he would
meet Dempsey.
Sure, 1 would be glad of a chance
to fight Dempsey for the title" said
Wills, who then told in a modest way
why he had refrained from challenging
the white champion.
"I never challenged Dempsey fearing
that the prejudice against mixed bouts
which followed the actions of Jack John
son. when he defeated Jeffries for the
championship. was too severe to permit
me to issue any challenge to Jack with
out being misunderstood. l concluded
l would go along quietly until such time
/ rs the public might demand battle
between Dempsey or whoever else might
be champion. and myself
personally, I think the prejudice
against mixed bouts is wearing out all
I over the country, and that soon the
+ sporting public will be clamoring to
( have Dempsey and myself go to it.
81 don't fear Dempsey or any other
! man. I am not making any claims, but
l do not think Dempsey can beat me
Remember I am not saying l can beat
Jack, but if he should beat me, he would
know he had been in a battle"

Shall Hazelet and Marquam be permitted arbitrarily to name the judge and oth- CT court officials in the Third and Fourth divisions where the Alaska Syndicate has it's Kennecott and La touch copper mines; its Copper River & Northwestern Railroad; its Alaska Steamship Company headquarters; it's dominating 5O-year government lease of the most valuable parts of the Boring river coal fields; it's Ka- talla oil monopoly and its transporta- tion control over the government railroad and naval coal mines?
 "This situation presents to Presi- dent Harding even before he has talk. en his oath of office the same prob lens that beset President Taft in 1910. The Alaska Syndicate's attempt to control the great natural resources of Alaska in 1910 destroyed the Taft administration and severed the bond of friendship between President Taft and Col. Roosevelt, split the Republi- can party into two great factions which destroyed each other in 1912, elected President Wilson and defeat ed Hughes for president in 1916.
 Twill President Harding begin his administration where President Taft left off and appoint the Cordova agent of the Alaska Syndicate with his Key stone canyon record as governor of Alaska and turn the government of Alaska over to it bodily? MT. Me Bride thinks that he will, but I think that he will not. MT. Mcbride de- clares in his endorsement of Hazelet that he would do everything in his power to help Hazelet secure the ap- pointment and 1 naw declare I will do everything in my power to warn President Harding of the danger of the situation and everything possible to defeat the appointment of Hazelet and every other man endorsed by the Alaska Syndicate commission. In that contest ask assistance of all the Alaskans who want square deal in Alaska, free from the domination of the Alaska Syndicate and it's bi- partisan political organization"

Wickersham Pursuing Ais Old Tactics

JUNEAU, Jan. 8.-(Special to Daily Times).-James Wickersham, who re. gently returned to the territory to be- come candidate for governor of Alaska, Is peeved over the fact that the Republican organization is almost unanimously in favor of the candidacy Of George c. HaZelet, of Cordova, and when National Committeeman Me Bride publicly endorsed the latter Wickersham adopted his old tactics of abuse and issued a statemen in the Empire, attacking everybody and everything. He resurrects the Gug. genheim bugaboO, which he Haunted for years until rebuked by the voters of Alaska and makes a personal and unwaranted attack on the Republi- can organization of Alaska. He charges that National Committeeman Mcbride was given big majorities in the Alaska Syndicate precincts at Kennecott and Latouche, which is not the case, but forgets to mention that the Fourth division. where he formerly resided was carried over- whelmingly by Mcbride. Wicker sham's statement is published in full, for what it is worth, and is as fol- lows
 
 MT. McBrides endorsement of Mr Hazelet of Cordova for governor, was of course the only thing he could do. Hazelet and Donohoe elected Mcbride as national committeeman at the primary election April 27 last through big majorities in the Alaska Syndi- cate precincts, at Cordova, Eyak, La touche and Kennecott. Mcbride then recognized the party by appointing Beegle, Hazelet and Marquam, and later Marquam will endorse Mcbride, and there you are.
