SQUARING AWAY FOR THE NEXT
ELECTION
The Progressive Republican tick
et was elected from top to bottom
with the possible exception of one
office—National Republican Commit
teeman. In spite of attempted split
of Republican votes and the enter
ing of Republican primaries by deta
ocrats, independents, and what not,
the ticket received majority vote in
the Division. Which speaks well for
the judgement of the voters and be
speaks confidence in the character
of the men nominated. The day has
passed when the voters of Alaska
will be scared from the polls by a
few professional gangsters; the day
has passed when the electorate will
permit these same professional poli
ticians to nominate and elect to of
fice men through star chamber con
ferences. The day has passed when
the electors will be fooled by a
smoke screen of intolerance, bigotry
hatred and class differences raised
by gentlemen “fom de souf” who
persist in bringing to Alaska their
un-American creed of hatred an an
imosity.
Dan Sutherland remains as
strongly intrenched in the hearts of
Alaskans as ever. So much so that
it was a pitiful exhibition of Bart
ley Howard running in opposition
The Controller Bill was an issue
of the campaign—Dan carried it to
the people—the masses have spoken.
Goodyby Bartley. Let others who
listen to the blandishments of the
Federal Brigade and the Juneau
Empire take this lesson to heart.
The entire legislative ticket was
elected—Senator Charles Benjamin,
Representatives, Winn, Paul, Mc
Cormack and Oita. These men
measure their strength against the
Democratic ticket in the November
election. We opine it will be a real
contest but do not admit that the
opposition ticket will get more than
one man into office.
Alaska gold production
Alaska—unheralded and unsung (
—-In 30 years has produced ono- *
ninth of all the gold mined in the '
United States, without transporta- (
tion and with Nature holding alt '
the odds against the handful of
Pioneers who wrestled with her i
What will she produce in the next
30 years with Railroads, Aeroplanes,
Automobiles and Paved Roads, Boat
Service on her great Navigable Riv
ers and proper machinery?
What will Alaska produce if 25
per cent of her production were re
turned in investment in the Terri
tory? How much greater would
the population be and how much
more business would the business
men of Alaska be able to do. Are
they satisfied to starve along indefin
itely while building up Seattle?
AT THE MACGREGOR
If you enjoy action—fast and fu
rious—if you like comedy when it’s
funny, and moreover, if you are one
of the many million fans dont miss
ular star, Hoot Gibson, don’t mi3s
seeing “The Buckaroo Kid,” Univer
sal-Jewel production which will be
featured by the Boy Scouts on Sat
urday only.
This big picture contains these
enjoyable ingredients in about equal
proportions, while each one contri
butes to the effectiveness of the oth
ers.
It is taken from a short story by
Peter B. Kyne, who needs no intro
duction to the picture fans of Pe
tersburg. >
Another big picture which the
fans will enjoy is “Two Arabian
Knights” with William Boyd, Mary
Astor and Louis Wolheim in a post
war comedy film, Sunday and Mon
day. Where the war ends, the story
of “Two Arabian Knights” begins.
In no sense derived from Omar
Khayyam's tales, the title is ex
plained by the fact that the Ameri
can buck private and top sergenat
are knighted by an Emir in Arabia
for a good reason. It is said that
‘Two Arabian Knight3” employs
divers avenues of laughter, ranging
from the hysteria-arousing sequenc
es of the doughboys’ escape through
electrified barb wire surrounding
a prison camp, to the spectacle of
Louis Wolheim in his red flannels.
You will enjoy this series of comic
adventures surrounding the court
snip of the buck private with the
Emir’s daughter.
