SETS FORTH AIMS AND VIEWS;
RESULTS OF TRIP ABOUT THE
TERRITORY
Senator Bartley Howard of Anchor
| age, the President of the 1927 Alaska
Legislature, who last September an
nounced his intention of seeking the
Republican nomination for Delegate
i
to Congress, is now at Juneau, ac
cording to a letter received from him
by The Gateway.
t**. estor Howard s -.ya that things
}r. >k encouraging so far and then
ti.es a brief ‘ sumnn’y of his recent
swiLf, about the Territory. In part
e v, ites;
“I had a very interacting trip
down the Yukon and received so
much encouragement that while at
Nome I decided to enter the primary
race. I am now in Southeastern Alas
ka, Juneau, but am returning to’ Ket
chikan this week. After spending six
weeks in this section of the country
have a better understanding as to
have a better undrestanding as to
where I stand.
“So far I feel very much encour
aged and have no doubt as to the re
sult of the primary. The public is
apparantly disgusted with so much
wrangling and jangling over politics.
I expect to make more of a business
campaign than a political one, as I
think it is about time for the people
of Alaska to stop making political
footbajls out of our industries; we
should endeavor to regulate them in
a business way rather than political
I
methods.
“While on my trip down the Yukon
I found many prospects worthy of in
vestigation. There is much tin in the
Ruby district as well as on Seward
peninsula. I am sure the day is not
very far off when tin from Alaska
will supply the market in the States.
On Seward peninsula there are moun
tains of graphite running 7i percent
pure, and not far from water trans
portation; sometime, in the near fu
ture, this should be delivered to the
States. It will not be many years un
til many factories, now located in the
Eastern States, will be on the Paoi
fis coast, and the States will be
looking to Alaska for raw material.
“I do not expect to be in Seward
until after the first of the year.
Please remember me to all the boys.

CERTAINLY IT PAYS!
That it pays to advertise was illus
trated again yesterday. A report to
the Diretor of the Budget was lost on
Sunday; a notice was put in last even
ing’s paper and today the book again
rests in the massive Jibrary of The
Gateway. Moral: If you can’t find it
use a classified. It‘s a great worker.
Also the finder received a fat re
ward. Try and get it!
