DIMOND ISSUES FINAL CALL TO
 ALASKA VOTERS
Confident of Winning Democratic Nomination
 for Delegate Tuesday CHEERED BY HEARTY
 RECEPTION ON TOUR Again Urges Voters to Cast Ballots for Man Most
 Highly Qualified

Buoyed with confidence of suc- cess in tomorrow's primary cleo tion by the enthusiastic reception given him everywhere he has been in Southeast Alaska and by re- ports of strength from every other section of the Territory, Senator A. J. Dimond, candidate for the Democratic nomination for Dele gate to Congress, today issued a final appeal to every voter to go to the polls tomorrow and cast his ballot for the candidate he believed most highly qualified and best fitted to represent the Ter ritory in Washington.
 s'If you believe am that per- son, I am entitled to your vote; if you do not and nominate some other standard bearer, ann con- tent to abide by your decision. and again renew my pledge to support with all possible vigor the successful aspirant,' he said to lIiEIlUGIo Ou 1lto tt1tA ".
 Invades Ketchikan Today
 He invaded Ketchikan this morn ing, ending his campaign in the home town of his two rivals for the nomination for Delegate to Congress. He was accompanied thsre by Mayor Thomas B. Jud- sen, who is candidate for one of the four House nominations on the Democratic ticket.
 They have just ended a suc- cessful tour of much of the more important communities between Skagway and Ketchikan, on which they were accompanied by Repre- sentative Frank A Boyle, unop- posed for nomination for Auditor. They met with warm receptions at Skagway. Hoonah, Tenakee, Sitka, Petersburg and Wrangell. Party leaders at most of these places gave them highly encouraging re- ports.
 Trend Decidedly Democratic
 "One of lahe most significant fac- tors ncosd throughout the entire trip was the fact that more and more people are inclined to our party and will vote the Demo- cratic ticket in Tuesdays pri- mary eleobion," declared Senator Dimond. This makes very cheerful prospect for the NoVem- Der election"
 EverywherasSenator Dimond and his associates visited in this Di- vision, they were assured of a fine vote for him. His campaign ill the First Division is conceded to have been good strategy, coming as it has on the heels of a re- port circulated that he had Wr- tually conceded his defeat and would not visit Southeast Alaska because he was too badly discour- aged.
 His appearance practically coin cidsd with the publication of this report. and his supporters are de- lighted with the reaction which, it is claimed, is more favorable than had been anticipated by even his most ardent friends.
 Reiterates His Position
 In his final campaign state ment, given to the press today and to Ina broadcast from Anchorage tonight over KFQD, Senator Di- mond reiterated his pledge, II non- mated and elected, to obtain for Alaska as much power of admin istration of it's own affairs through the local Legislature of the fish fur and game resources or the Territory and expressed confi- decne he could get a bill to ef- feet that change through Con-

THE discussions of the
= vice presidential nomina-
tions this year are interest
ing without being convinc-
ing, as yet, since the real
decision is not apt to come
until the presidential nomi-
nation is determined. The
disposition among politi-
clans to consider the vice
presidency lightly is mod
ern development.
In the early days of the
Republic only men were
chosen who were conceded
to be of presidential caliber.
But since John Adams and
Thomas jefferson succeeded
to the Presidency, but one
Vice President has been
elected to the higher office
for his first term. Martin
Van Buren is the sole excep-
tion. Tyler, Fillmore, John
son, Arthur, Roosevelt and
Coolidge reached the White
House from the vice presl-
dency through the death of
the President.
Popular esteem for the
second position appears to
have diminished in recent
years, and politicians are
now prone to turn up their
noses at the nomination. Yet
the place has been held by
some of the strongest and
greatest men in the history
of the Republic. Calhoun
did not think the position
beneath his dignity; nor
Van Buren. A wise fore
thought of the possibility
Of the death of the Presi-
dent would dictate always
the nomination of an able
man for the second place on
the ticket.

Congressional Sneers
At Reasonable Precautions

Il unfortunate that several Representatives in the aoa

defects only andstand play impress Congress with tine
needs of the school system.
Apparently they believe school officials should have kept
the students in the building despite the findings OF inspectors
that the structure was in unsafe condition
Some of the Congressman nsnuate that there really moth

They seemingly would their colleagues believe that the

These members entitled to their belief but fathers and
mothers will continue to feel confidence the officials who

dren a finer rearing than their
own.
I'VE are not such a bad lot
after all, we funny theological
apes: we utter a regrettable
amount of nonsense on our
parabola through the world,
but we can love with a magnifi-
cent devotion.
when I wish to renew my
faith in progress, I consider
the working and power of this
instict of parental aid; how it
lifts the children upon the
shoulders of the parents, gen.
Grafton after generation, and
raises life to higher levels Of
enterprise and thought.
"ALL LAWS, ACTUAL OR
PROPOSED, CAN BE ONLY A
MODEST Fol C E B E SIDE
THIS LEVER THROUGH
WHICH LOVE MOVES TIL e
WORLD"
Love moves the world. De-
spite our selfiShness, our stu
pidity, our cowardice and greed,
love works its brave and lovely
miracle.
Wavering Faith
Have you, too, felt your faith
in humanity waver? Wondered
if we are worth all the effort
that we cost? Seen, with dis
gust. the pettiness of the hu.
man plan? Then turn and
look. All around you moves
the answer to your doubt!
The tired, sloppy girl who
brings your waffles at the short
order counter
The homeless, shapeless,
middle-aged mother, haggling
! with the market man over a
bunch of carrots
, The stupid young fellow who
earns a few dollars driving a
night taxi, after eight . ours in
the shipping room
The shabby, tagging old fel-
low who carries the coal into
your basement
To you they are only dull
units in a dreary, ant-like file
of ignorant laborers. You for.
get them when you weigh the
values of life-when you quote
your cynical philosophy and
decide that human beings are
pitiful puppets in a contempti-
BILE comedy.
~ All Wrong
But you are wrong!
There is that within these
weary workers which mocks
your cynicism; which puts to
shame your sneers.
There is love in them: there
is courage; and there is a
dream
A DREAM OF BETTER
THINGS TO BE. A DREAM
OF A NOBLER, LOVELIriR,
FREER WORLD WHICH
THEIR CHILDREN MAY IN
HERIT!
And what does any secrifice
mean to them if, thereby. they
may give their children greater
life?
Looking out from your easy
chair, you see the mud.
Looking up from their gut
ters, they see the stars, and,
kneeling, let their children
mount on them, as stairs!

Presidential Nominee
Designates Running Mate

For years it has been the
policy to permit the presl-
dental nominee to designate
his running mate, although
there have sbeen exceptions
to the rule. Mckinley did
not want Roosevelt, and
Harding did not want Cool
idge.
For years the politicians
have acted on the theory
that the nominee for the
second place on the ticket
should represent a different
policy or segment of the
party from that represented
by the presidential nominee.
This, on the theory that it
brings all elements of the
party together.
The result has been That
very seldom has a Vice Presi-
dent, succeeding to the presi-
dency, maintained the poll
cies of his predecessor.
Tyler reversed them; and
Roosevelt; and Coolidge.
The manner in which poll
ticians, seeking to draw di-
vergent groups together, are
sometimes defeated in their
primary purpose is illus
trated in the case Of Tyler
and johnson.
