THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET
Due to the abnormal war conditions that envelop the
Territory this year, interest in Alaska’s General Election
of next Sept. 8th is apt to lag.
In war or in peace, the Territorial Government must
go on, a government of the people, directed by represent
atives of the people.
Even though Alaska may be largely directed at present
by Federal agencies and institutions, it is ever more im
portant that the proper citizens should direct the operations j
of the Territorial Government at Juneau—to safeguard the R
interests of the people, and carry on during this most
critical period.
I Every eligible voter should turn out to the polls on
Sept. 8 — It Ls an American duty.
