Alaskan papers in which Reverend Stillman denied re. sponsibility for the publication of Rev.

Marquam outlined a constructive legislative program which he favored and hoped to secure if he is elected.
 He endorsed the work of Secretary Hoover and pointed out this years pack of salmon, with all the restric- tions imposed on the fisheries is the greatest since 1918. By evidence from the official record he convincingly proved MT. Sutherland was entirely responsible for the unsavory publi- city given the Territory through the press and otherwise. He showed MT. Sutherland's motives were personal spite and revenge upon officials who refused to do his bidding and he point ed out the dangers of wholesale vot- ing by illiterate Indians.
 He brought out the fact that the Alaska Native Brotherhood, the Sutherland-Paul voting organiza- tion, is reaching into the Tanana val ley for membership among the Inter- for Indians and stressed the dangers to existing territorial institutions. MT. Marquam made many new votes as the result of last nights speech and it is freely predicted he will carry Fair banks by an overwhelmingly vote and the entire division by comfortable majority. He leaves this afternoon for Nenana returning to Fairbanks tonight and taking tomorrow's trian for the coast.
