ELECTION, APRIL, 3, 1917.
TO THE VOTERS OF NOME!
At the solicitation of my friends,
I have decided to be a candidate
for Councilman at the Election to
be held April 3, 1917. I have been
in Alaska since 1897, my home has
been permanently located in Nome
since 1901 and my family has been
reared here. I have always taken
an active interest in public affairs.
I have made no promises or pledges,
and if elected I shall work for the
best interest of the people of Nome
without fear or favor. I believ;
that work done for the City should
be let out on contract.
