D.: Reiter came back to Valdez with a lit- j tie political information which he picked up between Seattle and this j seaport. In Juneau he saw’ Louis P. Shackleford, who talked with consid erable freedom about plans for the Republican convention at Seward next month. Shackleford told Reiter that he ex pected to nominate Wickersham for Delegate to Congress, giving out the necessary implication that he consid ered that he will be in control of the convention. He said he would nomi nate Wickersham because he consid ered it good politics, as it w’ould bring a good many voters to the Republican party that could not otherwise be an nexed. T The same statement in substance was made by Mr. Shackleford to Judge John Lyons, who came through Juneau on the same steamer with Judge Reiter.—Ex.
