FOR DELEGATE toCONGRESS'
James L. Galen, whose election
as Republican canditate for Del
egate to Congress at the Prim
aries next month, is being eag-'
erly worked for by the great j
majority of the Republicans in
Alaska, is himself ’ Johnny on
the Spot” making an extensive!
campaign on his own behalf —he!
is now in the second division and
travelling through every place
possible. This trip in itself
at this season of the year, is a
very strenuous one, is under
taken by Mr. Galen in order to
have a personal acquaintance
with all his constituents, and
with gratifying results, judging
byreports from all places he has
visited,
In this personal handling of
the campaign, is the keynote of
Mr. Galen’s character, and from
it we can foretell what treatment
he would give Alaska in Washing
ton.
His own personal experiences
in prospecting, make his view
point as coming from complete
knowledge, wherein he has real
ized that the fundamental need
of this country is aid in develop
ing by means of roads and cap
ital, and deeds, not words.
His own previous visits to
Washington, of which he has al
ready made many, have given
him knowledge of the manner in
which many of these matters
should be handled.
His permanent home and int
erests are right here in one of
our own cities, where his capital
is invested
To be brief—Galen is the right
man for the right place ie. as
Alaska’s next Delegate to Con
gress.

P.W. SOMMER Agent,
Vote for
James L. Galen
for
DELEGATE to Congress
in
Republican Primary. April 25th 1922
He is a sterling Republican, standing for no clique or faction
but truly representative of the sound Principles which put
the present national administration power.
He has lived practically all of the last 22 years in Alaska
and is familiar with all portions of the Territory.
He is broadminded, vigorous, aggressive, and his name is
synonymous with Square Deal among those who know him.
He stands for Alaska as a whole, Alaska for Alaskans, and
legislation to bring renewed prosperity to the Territory.
The problem of the merchant, the miner and the fisherman
will each and all receive fair and intelligent consideration
if he represents .Alaska at Washington.
