D It is a rare occurence when one Cabinet member
comes to Alaska—this summer two members of the
Cabinet visited Alaska to become more familiar with
our needs. Senator Reynolds, member of the Senate

is Alaska concious—let us keep it that way.
Firm in the realization that the Democratic Party
is dedicated to the principle of representative self gov
ernment, and that its political creed makes it the true
i Yarty of the people, we the undersigned Democratic
, candidates for Territorial office, ask your support in
! the forthcoming general election September 13th :
