He is a ring politi cian; bound to the ring and practically pledged not to disturb ring precedent. : Grafting off the feeding of prisoners in the county jail is So established has it become that the graft a ring precedent is openly figured on by ring aspirants to the position, in com puting the revenue from the office. The graft goes to enrich the sheriff and to furnish funds to help perpetuate the ring in office. Last year the county paid the sheriff $14,601.60 for the maintenance of the prisoners in the county jail. Of this amount, it is safe to say that $10,000 was graft for the sheriff's office. Figured on a basis of actual cost, the prisoners could probably have been maintained for $4,500, the amount which the county commissioners should have allowed under a proper system Of the candidates running against Agnew for the nomina tion, Bob Hodge, former deputy sheriff at Black Diamond, has proven himself best qualified for the office. He was an effi cient and honest deputy. He understands handling men and catching criminals and would make an efficient sheriff Bob Hodge is willing to serve as sheriff for the $200 per month Salary attached to the office. He does not desire to graft at the expense of starving jail prisoners and an overtaxed public | He does not care to accumulate the money of the taxpayers to} help perpetuate in office a ring of political pensioners. Concentration of ring opposition on Bob Hodge means the defeat of Agnew. and DEFEAT OF THE GUGGENHEIMS The efforts of the Guggenheims, through their hired men, Gov. Hoggatt and John W. Corson, to control the politics of Alaska, received a severe set-back in the election held through Out the territory on Tuesday last. Corson was very properly defeated by Judge Wickersham, in whom the people of Alaska have every confidence and who will probably refuse to become 2 tool of the Guggenheim interests What would happen in Alaska if the Guggenheims ever Prove successful in their efforts to control the affairs of that territory was exemplified on Tuesday in the polling of votes at Cordova, the center of the Guggenheim activities in Alaska In spite of the fact that it requires a year’s residence in Alaska to earn the right to vote, and that last spring Cordova contained probably less than 100 voters, 925 votes were at that point on Tuesday, 700 of which went to Corson. Corson represented the Guggenheim opposition to terri torial government, while Wickersham was the candidate of those favorable to this form of government, and the voters answered most emphatically in favor of the Wickersham plat- form. This defeat of the giant Guggenheim corporation is a tribute to the intelligence of the people of Alaska cast ‘The secret is out at last. 8. G. Cosgrove, the Pomeroy candt- date for governor, has been posing for many years as a plain man ef the people, a lawyer in a county seat and a farmer. And now comes the news that many years ago he was honored by his alma mater with the degree of Batchelor of Arts and Master of Arts. Cosgrove has guarded bis secret well, but now that it’s out he has been forced into confessing it.
