VOTE FOR
AL WHITE
For Representative.
He Will Stay By Valdez and
Support the Peopled Policies.
The platform printed below was submitted to the voters of
Valdez last City Election. I can truthfully say now that I have
lived up to every section of that platform except section 4, which
was impossible to fulfill owing to the city’s finances.
The following platform was submitted April 7th, '14:
TO THE VOTERS OF VALDEZ.
If elected to the Council on Tuesday, April 7th, I pledge my
support to the following platform:
1. I favor an 8-hour day on all city work at 50 cents hour.
2. I favor fixing up all streets and sidewalks of the Reser
vation as soon as possible. |
3. I favor the maintenance of the City Dock.
4. I favor, if possible, a new and complete sewerage and
water system to be constructed and owned by the city.
5. I am not in favor of letting city work by contract and
believe the laboring man should have every possible chance to
earn his living in Valdez.
6. I am opposed to the present fine system in Valdez which
taxes the women of the restricted district for the benefit of the
city treasury.
To all of which I am pledged.
AL. WHITE.
If elected on November 3rd I have again pledged myself to
support my platform, which I have given already a great amount
of publicity. It contains many important changes that the peo
ple of Alaska now demand, such as a repeal of the placer law,
a better 8-hour law and a good and complete election law, as
well as advocating a larger tax on fisheries.
Your Vote solicited now for Representative to the
Alaska Legislature. Election November 3rd.

KATALLA LAUNCH
MAY BE LOST
Left Here Last Friday But Has Fail
ed To Reach Katalla—iHad Emp
ty Tanks Aboard.
Grave fears are entertained for the
safety of the gasoline launch Rose
Bud, which left Valdez last Friday
lor Katalla with temptjy gasoline
tanks. The launch has not reached
the oil city nor Cordova and the
friends of Captain Nordyke and two
others known to be aboard the launch,
fear that they have been lost. The
boat brought a cargo of gasoline to
the firm of S. Blum & Co. and Mr.
Blum received a wire today asking
when the launch left here.
The boat left on Friday and should
have reached Katalla on Sunday, but
has failed to appear up to today.
A terrific storm has been raging
down the bay and out to sea the past
week and it is feared that the launch
was caught in it and swamped.

Says First District Will Go for the
»
Regular Democratic Candidate
By Large Majority.
Joe Baxter, chairman of the Dem
ocratic Central Committee, passed
through Valdez for Seward on the
Northwestern. Mr. Baxter states that
the vote for C. E. Bunnell, of Valdez,
the regular Democratic candidate, will
be a surprise to many as ’ the First
division will certainly give the Dem
ocratic candidate a tremendous ma
jority.
"Mr. Bunnell has made a splendid
Impression upon the people of the
First division and business men are
promising him support, believing that
the administration of President Wil
son should receive the support of
Alaskans as an indication of the ap
preciation the people of the north
have for the work done by the pres
ent administration to help Alaska.
"The sentiment has been changing
steadily and each week the Democrat
ic candidate Is becoming stronger as
the people come to know him better.”

Big Battle In Northern France.
PARIS, Oct. 22.—A big battle Is be

times.
Control of Lille At Stake.
The battle is for the control of

Odors of London.
The sense of smell which enables an
engine driver to avoid a collision or a
sailor to steer clear of an Iceberg Is
the least cultivated of our senses. Bnt
with a properly equipped nose and a
little practice we ought to be able to
tei! where we are blindfold all over
London, for every locality has Its dis
tinct odor. Soho smells different from
Southwark, Billingsgate differs from
Limebouse, Rotberhltho has quite a
special smell or Its own, and Barking
la absolutely unique.—R. L. Stevenson.
A Natural Inference.
“Matrimony,” Bald the lady who had
Just secured her third divorce, “Is, aft

"I take It, then,” her friend replied,
"that you have not engaged In your
various ventures for charting pur
poses."—Chicago Record-IIerald.
Horses.
It Is estimated that the life of the 1
average horse in bondage 1b twenty
five years. The wild horse’s age is
about thirty-eight yenrs.

Her Preference.
“I want to muke a gift to Miss Pas

sort of animal the lady would prefei

“A man,” promptly suggested Miss
Knox.—Philadelphia Press.
Thoughtfulness.
Mr. Saphedde—I like to be different
from other people.
Miss Caustlque—That Is very con
siderate of you. I dare say the othel
people appreciate your thoughtful
