READ AND DIGEST THIS PLEASE

The people of Alaska at the coming election have be- fore them Republican ticket headed by the incumbent and Democratic ticket headed by Mr. Grigsby. Our pr mary law makes the placing of third ticket in the field so difficult as to prevent it. It accomplshes thereby acy what is was designed for by the great lawyer and politician who wrote the same.
 Not going into the merits of the individual candidates at this time and their fitness for office want to draw attention how they became the nominee of their party for the offices they candidates for.
 The Republican ticket at the primary was selected from limited number of names placed the ballot by self appointment The rank and file were not given an opportunity to express their idea of whom they would like nor were the active members in line with the powers that be- given opportunity to express their views
 We venture to state that were it possible to have a third ticket in the field before the present pr mary law some of these would not be on the G. O. Nc know that some of these Republicans are opposed to everything the Republican party has stood for and still stands for.
 The Republican party has no platform obligating canuates in Alaska to any definite policy on any Of the local or National questions.
 On the other hand the Democratic party of Alaska have selected their candidates by divisional caucus follow ed by Territorial convention held in Seward They efore the people of Alaska with the names of men care fully selected for their respective offices. Therefor standing upon platform which obgates the if elected to work for such economic and political betterent as the Democratic party in Alaska believed to be best for the welfare of the people of Alaska and submitted to he people for approval on November G.
 Every voter should carefully read this platform be- fore going to the polls
 Every independent voter ncining tothe principles of the G. O. F. should at this election in Alaska vote the Democratic ticket rebuke to the Woudbe leaders of their party who actually have assumed dictatorship the Republican party in Alaska; repugnant to Americans and against the true principles of free American Democracy.

MIR. Noyea With the Hq. Quintet as
Playing Coach
Much interest is being displayed in
the announcement that Mr.. Noyes,
p. H. S. athletic mentor, has joined
the Headquarters as playing coach
for the coming season. This former
University Of Maine pivot ace, who
has been forced into the coaching role
IN past seasons because Of knee in
juries, had previously established
quite a reputation on the profession
al court and will undoubtly prove n
valuable asset to the outstanding cen
ter in the new league while his coach
ing is expected to improve the always
ragged Headquarters Co. game.
Twenty two candidates, large,
small. thin and stout reported for the
first practice called in the Armory
last Wednesday evening. Several vet

appears TO advantage under the bas-
ket. The '26 forward duet, Cody and
Leo. is experiencing difficulty in stay
ing ahead of the DeBerardinis-Bove
team, while Sabin and Marion, last
year lettermen, will do well TO Guido
the efforts of Massicot and Gilman in
the backcourt.
New uniforms with the latest up
