Bert Becksted Is another who is SO well and favorably known in the city that it seems almost like presumption to speak at all in his favor. He has been successful in his own affairs. has a host of friends and a look in his clear eye shows that Bert In the coun- cil would be the right man in the right place. He is certain to poll a big vote and he deserves 1t.
 George Jones has been in the freighting business here for years. He is one of those labor union men who have their hearts and souls in their cause because they know their cause is nothing less than the cause of all humanity. He is u man who works hard and works to advantage and whose aid in the city council or in any democratic body would be in- valuable. He has a host of friends.
 Victor A. Julien is one of the best fellows and one of the best citizens of Nome. His hearty nature has made every man in Nome his well wisher He has worked hard and has con- ducted his mining business success fully. He is one of those operators who tclegraphed to Juneau the infor- nation that he Is in favor of an eight hour day. Victor is one of those who want to live and let live. A man of his nature could not be otherwise and Nome will show it's appreciation of the fact next Tuesday. /
 Phil Murphy is successful at busi- ness and will be eminently success full in transacting the affairs of the municipality. He is one of those men whom criticism cannot stop once he finds he is right. He is progressive and gifted with the capacity to ini- tiate new things as we'll as to main tain what is best in teh old. He is true as steel, is q business man of a business like kind and his election will be to Nome's advantage.
 Ed C. Roberts is one who has had the courage to defy the elements and tdkc his chances in the difficult work of adding to Nome's wealth by con- quering the ice covered sea. You can see in his well set face that Ed Rob- erts is d man who will win or try again. He belongs to that imp ortapt business class which pays such high taxes. To conduct the city's affairs for the best interests of the city will be to conduct it's affairs for his own interests. But Boring sea couldn't beat Ed and his politic4! opponents are hardly as powerful l3 Boring sea.
 George Walker is tn. y1 y1ccessfu!, bright and industrious mining man personified. He is one of those fel- lows that made Alaska and make every new country that Is worth mak- ing. He is as broad of mind as he .s broad "' shoulder. He Is C citizen "f whom Nome might well be pr r7uG. one who takes his chances ou, in he bills and takes his medicine without grumble.
 As business man or a professional man George Walker would be suc- cessful. As councilman Nome could have no better if they searched from one end of Alaska to the other.
 Such are the men who have come out at the request of their innumera- ble friends to face the unprofitable work of giving Nome good govern ment. They are of the best type of citizenship. They are men who work with their hands and with their brains and in whose keeping the affairs of the municipality would be safe and secure.
 They are not built of the fiber that forms political rings as serpent forms coils when it is moving. They are good fellows -and-good- and bright and broad citizens and the man who votes for them will be doing his duty to himself and to the community in which he lives.
