LIVE ISSUES

fool you about the issues of this ~ampaign.
 The issues are few and simple:
 CARPET-BAGGERS; Do you want some more?
 FISH TRAPS; Do you want the Seattle Chicago capitalist to catch all the fish? Or do you want the real, resident, stay-at-home, spend- your-money-in-Alaska fishermen to catch them?
 TRANSPORTATION; Are you in favor of doing all that you car tc reduce the high freight rates? Do you think we should pay three tiroes as much for our freight for hauling equal distances as for example, San Francisco to Seattle compared with Seattle to Skagway? Do you think we should pay for truckage and for wharfage in Seattle while the trans portation companies. rebate the same charges for shipments to the Orient?
 WORKMEN'S COMPENSATION LAWS: Are you in favor of a law which will wipe out the lawyer class of adjusters? The defects in the present law are there on account of the lobbying of H. L. Faulkner and R. E. Robertson, corporation law yers of canneries and mines, the same men who are now directing the campaign of the "three in oil' can didates, Davies-Sheppard-Ashley and Gurr I propose to introduce an act which has been approved in form by tke United States government, the states of California, North Dakota, Connecticut and the American Fed eration of Labor Legislation. This law will GUARANTEE 55 percent of his monthly wages to every in- jured employee AS LONG :tS THE DISABILITY LASTS EVEN IF FOR LIFE; also to include hospital eX- pense; or in case of death, the widow shall GET not a mere chance as at the present, but actually GET 35 percent of her husbands wages as long as she remains a widow; if she marries, she will get a lump sum settlement of two years payment: with allowance for children.
 EQUAL TAXATION: All industry and business should contribute it's equal proportion in taxes to support this Territory. Today, due to H. k. Shepard, the leader of the 'three-in oil" candidates, the big mine pays only S12,5OO in taxes on a net profit of $2,OOO,OOOOO. When Shep voted to reduce the tax on enormous pro- fits like this, he voted to INCREASE YOURS. Do not forget that the manager of this big mine is Shep's son-in-law, and he will do it again
The Alaska fisherman., 1924-04-15

If you believe in these principles, then vote the "so-called Paul' ticket. Every man who is running with me is a man of we'll known determina- tion. We cannot be bought. We will tend to our business of making fair laws; we will obey the laws of the United States, including the Vol stead Act.
 In answer to the latest lie pub lished under the inspiration of the cannerymen, trapmen, mines and their paid attorneys, I wish to say that the only rights which I claim for the Indians are those rights which the law says are his NOW. 1 ask for no more.
 Regarding the school question, I insist that so long as this Territory collects the territorial school tax from all the Indians, old, young, or illiterate, just so long must this Ter ritory provide for the education of all it's children, whether white, black, yellow or red. I am opposed to law which compells Indian children to take a bath, or to have their heads scratched. but I am in favor of compelling all children to take bath, to have all children's heads examined for crawling animals; in short, SCHOOL BOARDS MUST HAVE ABSOLUTE CONTROL OF MATTERS OF HEALTH AND SANITATION, and no race should be allowed to escape a rigid inspec- tion by the HEALTH OFFICER.
 One more point: am in favor of licensing all men who fish, whether on traps or on boats; that only full American citizens shall be allowed to secure a license; also that only bona fde residents of Alaska be allowed to procure such license. This is the law of the state of Wash ington. Why not for Alaska I want to build up Alaska and not Seattle and San Francisco. This will help. If we make it worth while for fishermen to LIVE in Alaska the year round, they will do so I would rather see ten men make ten thols- and each during the summer than to have one man make one hundred thousand. It will be better for the men, including all the small business men.

HUMANE EDUCATION WORK
