CHARLES BROWN, Senator
From Nome

Senator Brown is a young man of great promise. Quiet and unassuming studious and diligent. Keenly aware of his responsibility to his constituents, his older colleagues realize that he cannot be moved by spacious argu ment to yield in principle.
 The contrast between Brown and Aver, his colleague, is strikingly mark ed. One can scarcely believe that the same constituency elected the two senators at the same election. Brown stands for progress and advanced thought; Aver represents a type of re- actionary that is fully as dangerous in Q republic as the socialist extremist
 Senator Brown may go fa1 in pub lie life. He grasps the essential theories of democracy and the signs of the times indicate a purpose on the part of the American people to re- turn to the elemental democracy of the constitution.

JOHN RUSTGARD

He grates upon the nerves of some people. So do all strong characters
 Among an army of federal officials, it is we'll that the people should have at least one check upon their quasi territorial activities. Rustgard also is cognizant of the fact that he repre- sents the people of Alaska and that his first allegiance is to them. Or dered to investigate transportation methods he did it to the discomfiture of the steamship companies He does most things to some ones dscomfi- ture. Consequently, bitter enemies. Undiplomatic? Very! Just hews to the line without apology That he is antagonized by appointed officials is not to be wondered at. Those who would abolish the office of Attorney General should remember that MT. Rustgard is the only official at the territorial capital who obtains his power by the consent of the governed

THE ALASKA FISHERMAN

Governor Bone and his advisors, par ticularly in their efforts to aid the fish trust in securing title to public waters.
 Mr. Theile is somewhat acquainted with the arts and wiles of politicians and he exercises his knowledge Poli- tical power appeals to Mr. Theile and his one obsession is to control both federal and territorial patronage through his influence with the gover- nor.
 Control of political patronage does not count for much in Alaska, and it's exercise is sometimes detriment to ones standing before the people, but MT. Thele is an appointed official and perhaps standing before the peo- pie is not matter of importance to him

ous klLs of the politician he never practices them. The Scotch are canny, not crafty, and it may be that racial canniness plays some part in Suther- lands political career. Had he Gov ernor Bones education, polish, diplo- matic tendencies, he would not be Sutherland, so why conjecture what electorate and the electorate seems to be satisfied with him, just as he is. Sutherland's political success is due to his abiding consciousness of whom he Is responsible to and his canninesS is displayed in his always correct inter- Tretation of the will of those to whom he is responsible. Appointed officials, commercial bodies, business interests, have been unable to sWerve him from a course which he believes to be in the interest of the majority. His fight to preserve the open market for hali- but was made against the opposition of appointed officials and the com mercial interests of the Pacific Coast, and he won out.
 The opposition to his present atti- tude on the salmon reservations is much stronger than that of the former contest but the people of the Terri tory are with him. Should he win out in this contest against seemingly overwhelming odds, his place in the political history of Alaska will be a high one.

FRANK A. ALDRICH, Senator
 EirSf Divis;oo

His legislative record is a most ex- cellent one. A perusa of past ses- sion journals will show that Aldrich is author and sponsor of more progress sive legislation than any individual who has served in the Alaska legisla- ture. He holds that territorial affairs should be controlled by elected repre- sentatives of the people and not by the appointed officials. Aldrich is a good legislator, fearless and indeDen- dcnt. There are no strings on him unless his employment in the Forestry Department might bias his judgment, but that bias would apply to several legislators who are in government en- rloy or to the many legislators who are seeking federal employment.
 FRED AVER, Senator
 From Nome
 very capable and energetic busi- ness man. As a legislator he is wholly out of his proper field, His mentors and advisors are the corporation law vers about Juneau, and consequently his votes are generally cast for the corporations and against the people.
 Senator Aver voted for the memor- ial condemning the fish reserves and then apologized for doing so agains: his better judgment
 We cannot believe that voters of
The Alaska fisherman., 1923-05-15

the second division held the same per spective of Senator Aver when they elected him that the majority of those who have observed his legislative an tics held.
 It may be that the glamour of ma- jesty into whose presence he rushed upon his arrival in Juneau served to turn his head. He may learn more of the philosophy of civil government during his term as senator, but in or. der to do so it would be we'll for him to change mentors.

FOREST J. HUNT, Senator
 First Division

The president of the Senate is conscientious, honest public servant Progressive but not extremely so; courageous, the evidence of his cour age being his stand against the preda tory fishing interests which dominate the politics of his home city of Ketch- ikan. His fairness and his unpreju- diced rulings as presiding officer of the Senate were appreciated by his colleagues

ANTHONY J. DIMOND, Senator
 Third Division

A ploddng, industrious legislator, by far the ablest member from the Third Division. A painstaking law yer, painfully painstaking in minor matters Is said to have ambitions to go to Congress. Makes the mistake of trying to please the interests and the people at the same time. The line of cleavage between privilege and public r@hts is too closely drawn in Alaska just now for politicians to
