CANDIDATE GR|GSBY
 SETS FORTH VIEWS
 MESSAGE TOVOTERS


 by, candidate for Delegate to Con- gress, subject to the primary cleo tion, April 26, is set forth clearly in the following statement:
 "As candidate for the Demo- cratic nomination for Delegate to Congress at the coming primary election, herewith make brief statement of the principles for which I stand
 T am nfavor of the direct pri- mary law and absolutely opposed to it's repeal.
 T consider the future admins tration of the fisheries of Alaska as the big issue of this campaign. Am utterly opposed to the present bureaucratic control
 T am in favor of the abolition of fish traps, and as the most effect i've means to this end, will, if elect ed, work for the transfer of all fed eral control of the fisheries to the Alaska Territorial Legislature. I believe this can be accomplished with the advent of the Democratic administration, which is assured.
 T will do my utmost to put the Bureau of Fisheries out of buSi- ness in the Territory of Alaska, ex- cept for the purposes of scientific research.
 T am opposed to all forms of bureaucratic government No fed eral bureau should have any power to legislate whatsoever.
 Tt will be my endeavor, if elect ed, to open the public domain of Alaska to settlement and develop nent under the same liberal laws under which other Territories were developed. This includes t m b e r lands, oil and coal lands. I am op- posed to the leasing system.
 T am opposed to the Pinchot system of conservation as applied to Alaska, believing that nature and economic conditions present sufficient barriers to the develop ment of the Territory, without ad- dltional man-made restrictions.
 The Alaska Legislature should have complete control of the game and fur-bearing animals.
 The Democratic doctrine of states rights. advocated for the past one hundred years. is particu- larly applicable to this Territory. We should be accorded home rule In the Territory on all subjects of legislation not purely federal.
 T have not recently adopted the above platform but have cam palgned on the same platform for three successive campaigns, each time gaining more votes, and in the last election was beaten by my Republican opponent by only 296 votes. believe those who vote in the Democratic primary all desire to nominate Q candidate who has the best chance of success at the election this coming November. l will not in this message, or else where, reflect on the merits of the opposing candidates for the Demo- cratic nomination. However, the friends wh o have urged m to again become a candidate, and ] myself, believe, that my past re- cord in office, as United States at torney, as Attorney-General, and Delegate to Congress; the wide ac- quaintance obtained by my suc- cessive campaigns, the increasing number of votes gained in each of them, all indicate that I am the logical candidate and deserving of the nomination in the April pri- mary.
