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.
Stay by Valdez and vote for Al. White for representative to
the Alaska Legislature. He is an independent candidate. Seethat
his name is printed or written in on your ballot. Election Tues
day, November 3rd.

EGAN WINS THE
SOCIALIST PRIZE
Was Awarded First Honors for Essay
Upon Socialism—Bennett 8pence
Gets Second Honors.
Emmett Eagan has won the prize
of $2.50 offered by the Socialists of
Valdez for the best 500-word essay
on Socialism. The contest was open
to all students in the public schools.
Another essay was so good, that of
Bennett Spence, that the Socialists
have made him a special award of
$1.50.
The contest was arranged for stim
ulating a wider interest and critical
understanding of the subject. Social
ists feel that it requires only a clear
conception of what Socialism really
stands for to win for their cause.
The awards were made after read
ing and discussion of the essays by
the Socialists at their regular Thurs
day night meeting. Emmett Eagan's
winning essay will be published in
next Sunday’s Miner.

SENTENCED FOR
Man Who Shot Austrian Prince Draws
Twenty Years—Men Who Urged
Him On Will Be Hung.
SARAJEVO, Bosnia, Oct. 30—The
trial judges today sentenced Princlp,
the young Slav who murdered Grand
duke Ferdinand and his wife, to serve
20 years in the penitentiary at soli
tary confinement. Four of the men
accused were ordered to be hung,
while one received a sentence for
life and eight were given lesser
terms. Seven men charged with be
ing implicated in the plot to mur
der the archduke and start a rebel
lion were acquitted, as little evidence
could be found against them.
The authorities charged during the
trial that the plot was hatched at
Belgrade and that the men were aid
ed in crossing the border by the Ser
vian coast guards and that the guns
used by the men were furnished by
the general staff of the Servian army.

ing troops to Prance from England.
Mount Guns Along Sheldt River.
The Germans are mounting big
howitzers on the heights overlooking
the Sheldt river so as to prevent the
British sending monitors up the riv
er.
Britain’s Interests Vitally Affected.
PETROGRAD, Oct. 30.—The en
trance of Turkey into the war is
regarded here as being of vastly
greater importance to Great Britain
and her Indian possessions than to
Russia. It is believed that the Turks
will endeavor to have the millions of
Indian revolt against Britain.
Russian Army Inexhaustible.
LONDON, Oct. 30.—The military
experts here state that the Russian
successes have been the result of the
Inexhaustible supply of men that the
czar has at his command, so that his
line is strong at every point and in
spite of the superior mobility of the
German-Austrlan forces through the
use of the neetwork of railroads and
the many motor cars that the Rus
sians present a strong opposition at
every point of the 400-mile line.
British and French Not Inferior.
The military experts insist that the
British and French forces are not
inferior to the Russian troops, but
that the Germans have sent the best
of the German army against the al
lies and that the German forces in
Belgium and France are but little
inferior in numbers to that of the al
lies and hold a strongly entrenched
position.
Germans Prepare Attack England.
LONDON, Oct. 30.—It is generally
believed now that the British people
will soon feel the force of a German
attack. The scouts and spies in Bel
gium and Holland, besides those
working In Germany, have reported
that the German general staff Is rush
ing Zeppelins and big howitzers to
northwest Belgium, where huge Zep
pelin sheds are being built and prep
arations started for an Invasion of
England.
