Seward, Alaska, Oct. II. 1932. regret very much that l am not able to visit you in person. Upon receiving the nomination of the Democratic party for the of- flee of delegate to Congress in the April primary election, 1 determin- ed, if possible, to visit every pre- cinct in Alaska. I thought it my duty to do so in order to fit my self to represent you in Congress. I know from experience that ey- cry town and community has it's own problems and the delegate ito Congress should know at f1ss hand, if possible, what those pro blems are and how they can be solved and should see for himself the difficulties which confront the residents of the various parts of this great Territory So started on my journey in August and was at Iditarod, on my way to Nome, when an accident happened which rendered further travel for some weeks impossible. By the time recovered it was too late for me to visit the Second Division and many places ill the Fourth Division that I had also intended to reach However, this trip is simply d ! layed and not indefinitely post poned.
 Contrary to false reports which have been actively circulated, my travelling expenses have been paid entirely by myself. out of my own funds, and no contribution has been or will be made to those expenses by any corporation or by any officer of any corporation. The expenses of my campaign will 1 be within the amount that is all lowed as mileage to every Dele gate to Congress. I have no apot- ogies to make and no explanations | to offer. All desire is that the truth be known.
 While I am unable in this brief statement to tell you all that I stand for. the following are some of the policies and principles which ! I advocate:

 ial resources. This means full
 and absolute control by the

As this is written, Hoov- CT is the only republican can didate for whom a formal an- nouncement has been made, and Ritchie is the only demo- crat to declare himself a can- didate. Coolidge and Dawes have definitely come out in fa- vor of Hoover. It has been known that Roosevelt is act ively seeking the democratic nomination, while Baker is un- mistakably in a receptive mood.
 Most puzZling to political ob- servers is the attitude of Al. Smith, who has not committed himself directly or indirectly. It is generally believed that he would welcome another nom- ination but whether he will be- come an active candidate is still unknown.
 At present the renomination of president Hoover seems as- sured, but there will be some lively jockeying among the democratic aspirants between now and the June convention.
 The poll conducted by Pub fishers Service Monthly dis closed that of the 582 news paper editors represented 300 were of the opinion that the :ampaign will result in a dem- ocratic victory, while 143 pre- dicted a republican admins ration.

Campaign Straws

Preliminary polls designed to get the drift of political sen- timent have begun to appear and some results have been given out.
 A poll of 582 newspaper ed itors by Publishers Service Magazine showed leading candidates for presidential nomination to stand as fol- lows: Republicans-Hoover, 320; Coolidge, 19; Dawes, 10. Democrats - Roosevelt, 154, Baker, 132; Ritchie, 22; Smith 12.
 Sevety representative papers boiled by the Literary Digest were asked what prospective candidates were most talked about by their readers. Those mentioned 25 times or more were these:
 Republicans - Hoover 70; Coolidge, 43; Borah, 31, John- son, 28; Pinchot, 26; Dawes, 25. Democrats - Roosevelt, 70; Baker, 69; Ritchie, 63; Smith, 56; Young, 35; Murray,

A Record of Defeat

With the return of the an- niversary of Lincoln's birth, it is not inappropriate to re- call that his earlier history provides a record of defeat scarcely exceeded in the polit- ical history of our country.
 He was first defeated as a candidate for legislature in 1882, again in 1888 he was de- feated as candidate for speak CT, and in 1840 again defeat ed as candidate for elector.
 Other defeats sustained in- cluded one as candidate for U. s. Senator in 1855; for the vice presidential nomination in 1856; again as candidate for U. s. Senator in 1858; for commissioner of the General Land Office in 1843; for con gressional nomination in 1843 and for reelection to congress in 1848. In 1883 he also failed in business and lost his prop erty.
 But, in the face of defeat and failure he eventually achieved the highest office within the gift of the nation and also fame that will make his name survive in history as long as human records endure.

Silver Deserves Help

We have stated before and again we repeat: The prob em back of silver goes deep ar than its profitable pnoduc- ion. The fundamental cause )f the worldwide business depression has been brought about mainly by the lack of a money medium of uniform val 1e sufficient in quantity to conduct the business affairs of the world, and made non- fluctuating by having it tied 70 basic mineral reserves. This means the use of both gold and 3ilver, because there is not enough gold in the world to serve this purpose.
 Silver deserves the united help Of the world. In stabili- zation and proper utilization may be the means of again re- storing confidence in the mon- ey markets of the world and may lead us back to the door of prosperity. - Mining Con- gress Journal.

ceedlng US Speclfled delivery capacity by 30 per cent, de- posting 13 tons of ore an oour in the bunkers instead of ten, for which the contract called.
 A double shift was put on the tram this week and it is understood that there is suf- ficient shipping ore in sight at the mine to keep the 23-mile string of buckets operating at full capacity throughout the year. This means that the Pre- mier will produce this year at least $15,000,0OO, more than one-half of the total mineral production of British Colum- bia.
 One-third interest in the B. c. Silver group, adjoining the Permier, has been purchased by New York interests, pre- sumed to be the Guggenheims, for price said to be $100,- 900, the vendors being Grant Manhood of Stewart and o. E. Bush of Vancouver. The Selu- qui Gold Fields, Ltd, of South Africa, represented on this coast by c. A. Banks of Van couver, controls the remaining two-thirds. The property was originally staked by Grant Manhood, Chas. Lake and Dave Leary.
 MT. and Mrs. Edgar Prov ince, recent arrivals from Se- attle, have rented Louis Legge's cabin.
 Billy Mcdonnell has taken over the operation of the mov- ing picture machine in the Fly der theater.
 A baby daughter was born in Stewart Monday night to Mir. and Mrs. Chas. Knipple. Dr. Chase of Hyder was in at- tendance.
 There are a bunch of import ant birthdays in this month; George Washington, Abe Lin coin, E. L. Dale, Harry Tan ner, John Cornyn and Ground Hog.
 The initial tram installed on the Silverade is operating and the high grade ore that was sacked during the course of development is moving down the hill to where it can be reached by a rawhide trail. The ore will be rawhided down to the old railroad barn and transferred to the wharf by Sleds. No ore has been sacked that would not go better than $500 per ton and some of it reaches the $1,000 mark. There was between 20 and 30 tons of this grade ore sacked at the mine when the tram started operating.
 Under instructions from Fly der Igloo of Pioneers, R. l.. Stewart, their secretary, has addressed a letter to Alaska delegate Dan Sutherland re- garding Salmon river request ing him to bring the matter of securing flood protection for the town before the proper de- partments.
