from Experience

Crystal Snow Jenne, Democratic
candidate for the House of Repre-

lature, arrived at Juneau in April,
1857. and has lived and grown with
Alaska for So years.
-Four years before the Klondikc
rush she crossed the Chilkoot Pass
On foot with her parents in 1894
and spent years in the wilderness
then known as The Yukon" She
has watched the development of
Juneau and has had much to do
with 1t.
Mrs. Jenne lived in Alaska before
the coming CT the law, and attended
miners meetings presided over by
her father as judge. She has watched
the canning of the Organic Act and
through work in community organi-
7aticns has pushed forward sane
and progressive development of all
Alaskan projects WHAT happens
to Alaska, happens to me- she says.

Grated since the death of her hus-
b,.nu, Or. C. p. Jenne, Juneau den

Her record as a Democrat is one

with the kind of patriotism which
puts public need before his own,
are the most necessary attributes
of public servant, and these
claim. I know my election issues,

sfO,OOO,OOO in building defensive
base.
Likewise Delegate Dimond has
worked unremittingly in correction
of injustices done TO the Indian and
Eskimo peoples of Alaska.
Many Accomplishments
This is merely sketching the ac-
ccmplishments of Tony Dimond. His
efforts in behalf of the Alaska fish
erman; his bold pronouncementS
on the incorrect reasoning which
confined sovereignty CT the United
States tc a point three miles from
the coast, prCnouncements W h C h
were accepted by authorities on in
ternational law and resulted in the
subsequent withdrawal from Alaska
waters of japanese fishing boats;
his determined stand for employ
ment CT Alaskans On Alaska jobs;
all these and a hundred other sub
jects would need tC be detailed to
describe what a tower of strength
in Congress for Alaska Delegate
Dimond has been and is.
And as they have every two years
since 1882, voters in the Territory
on September 10 of this year will
have opportunity again to endorse
what Tony Dimond has done for
them and to elect him as their rep
resentative in Congress for another
two years.
