THE DELEGATE'S MAIDEN SPEECH.
On March 30, Delegate Dimond made his first
speech in the House of Representatives. He asked
for and received leave to address the House for 10
minutes. Before he had concluded the time had
been extended by unanimous consent upon the re
quest of seven other members until almost one
hour was consumed. That in itself is indicative of
the fine impression Alaska's new Delegate made.
Perhaps the most striking aspect of his remarks
was the utter frankness and extreme sincerity dis- j
played throughout. Once or twice he was asked
questions about small details to which he admitted
he didn't know the answer. But he did give the
House a great deal of information in the short time
he had at his disposal.
