The Writing On The Wall
Daniel, 5th Chapter, 5th Verse
“In the same hour came fourth fingers of a
man’s hand and wrote over against the candle
stick upon the plaster of the wall of the king’s
palace and the king saw the part of the hand that
wrote.”
There will be a change in the city administration this
fall. For the first time in two years the local labor unions will
take a decided stand on the election and will place their candi
dates in the running for city offices.
The local labor vote is heavy. In last year’s election the
labor groups did not enter a candidate.
This year the voters of Kodiak will elect a mayor and
FIVE councilmen. Many temporary appointments to the coun
cil to fill resignations of duly elected councilmen are now in
force. The only “holdover” councilman on the present board
is A1 Miller. He was elected last year for a two year term.
Wilton White is replacing Bud Metzgar who resigned.
Basil Clark will complete his two year term in October. L>. N.
Hoylman is completing h:s two year term and V. W. Rootis
completing his one year term. Jack Hinckel will.finish his
tenure in office as a replacement for William Worth who re
signed several months ago.
A new regime will apparently take over. Many soft city
job^ hang in the balance. The October City Election will be a
holly contested event. Are you ready???

LETTER
August 28, 1923
J 0. Kraft & Son
: Kodiak, Alaska
i Genllemer:
I arrived home here in Penn
85 lvania after my extremely
! pleasant and profitable trip up
[in the wonderful territory of
I Alaska and I certainly do wish
to thank you for the pleasant
interview I had with you.
[ Also, I wish to sincerely than.^
I you for the many courtesies
! and favors shown me.
I’m telling you the truth
| when I say that I never in my
life met finer people. For some
thirty odd years I have been
working the eastern cities
j here in The United States with
our * more than a CENTURY
[old” product and it is from
I one extreme to the other Ido
, assure you.
) In the northeastern part of
The United States it is “How
heap is it?’’ - nut ‘ ‘How good
s it?”. It is a hustle and
bustle and a desire to outwit
the other fellowT, while up in
your splendid territory it was
nothing but plrasure.
Thanking you very kindly
for making my trip possible
and assuring you that if you
should ever get into the
eastern part of The United
States it would be a great
pleasure to have you stop in
to see the oldest woolen mills
in this country, I am
Very sincerely,
Woolrich Wio'en Mills
