the government was going to honestly

out bankrupting itself. Some are des-

doubt but the doctrine of Socialism.

with the teachings of Holy Writ more
than n other doctrine agitated on
the globe today. The political part of
Socialism is far ahead of the church in
it's aggressiveness to tighten the burd-
ems Of the poor. It stands directly for
the laborer, first, last and all the time,
and breaches cooperation and the
brother hood of man, thus outstripping
the church away yonder in seeking
the uplift of the sons of toll. So
strongly is Socialism entrenching it.

unfortunately, the church has proved
itself a Judas to labor, and labor has
been forced to try and seek other help.

what his hope is founded. Certainly
it is not in the two old parties that

never will. If labor has not felt the
sting of oppression all wei the land it
certainly has no feeling. / believe in
politics that helps the poorest of the

 Aids to NaVIQatlon.

The many wrcckS in very re- cent times along our coast ac- crntuateS the neglect of the Re publican administration in pro- VldlnS adequate aids for naviga- ton.
 We favor the immediate con- Structlon of d sufficient number of Lighthouses, bcacOns and Oth- er aids tO navigation along our coasts to reasonably safeguard tn" lives and the property of our people and That in connection herewith the military cables should be kept open at all hours and that cable rates be lowered 10 the actual cost of service; that a revenue cutter with wireless equipment be stationed at Prince William sound, and that adequate wireless stations be added tn the cable and telegraph systems to make the means of communica- ton complete throughout Alas ka.
 Roads and TraiIs.
 We favor liberal approprla- lions for the building and main tenancc of roads and trails and earnestly urge the immediate survey and the construction from the coast to Fairbanks of trunk automobile road to facilitate our slow and tardy mail service and cheaper freight and passenger rates and we denOunce the un- certain and obligatory attitude of the administration on this vital question.
 Tho Conclusion.
 Many of the evils under which we suffer could and would be remedied if we had a local leg lslature, but not having that, we pledge the best efforts of our candidate for delegate to secure rom congress a remedy of such evils.
 With faith in the justice and wisdom of the declaration here by enunciated, we present this platform and the candidate for delegate whom this convention may nom,nate, to the people of Alaska. with the further sugges- tlrn that the time has come when ali hlaskans should unite for the establishment of our common wealth upon firm and enduring basis, and it's upbuilding by wise, Just and comprehensive laws.
