Dear Bernie:
am wondering how your candidacy for reelection
IS coming along You Democrat running in strong

YOU which will make it rather difficult for your re-
election, am afraid My similar when ran for
reelection in 1888 when the New Deal was at its height
and was the only Republican elected from this Demo-
cratic County that year.
However, our cases somewhat similar because we
have both voted convictions honestly and earlesslv
and we have both shown degree of independence which
should appeal to constituents. | feel this was the
basis upon which received my reelection with sub
stantial increasing majortes.
we'll recall how you displayed these characteristics
in voting the Bill proposed for increasing the Mem
bers of the Legislative Council There were only three
Democratic votes, yours Senator Bowers, and Senator
Burns Chairman of the Judicial Proceedings Committee
However, your independence of pressure by the Admins
tration could not your good judgment in plac
ing principle above policy and keeping your word which
your bond.
Your record in the Senate in this First Term was
good; am you will become even more effective
Representative if reelected because you know the ropes
and have the qualities necessary to make your County
proud of your activities.
Very sincerely,

FIREMEN HAVE HECTIC NIGHT; TWO BLAzES

The Juneau Fire Department members had a hectic and uneasy time last night, with innumerable shorts causing the alarm to blast forth at odd intervals from early evening into the night, ending with Ia real call about o'clock this morning, which took them to the Commercial Liquor Store and Sug- ar Bowl Lunchroom. 2
 Here they found the fire, started by furnace explosion which jared the stovepipe loose and against the wall between the restaurant and liquor storerooms, well underway into the unused rooms above with the blaze reaching the roof.
 Most of the damage to the .iquor store and restaurant is water dam- age, with all the restaurant stock in the storeroom a complete less. No estimate of the amount of the loss has yet been made by Joe Thomas, owner of both establishments.
 The fire was discovered lay Dave Milner, who was doing janitor work next door when he first smelled smoke, and on further investiga- tion located the source, and immed- lately called Mrs. Thomas.
 The front of the furnace was blown out, the iron plate thrown off the stovepipe extending from tte back of the furnace and the stovepipe itself complete'v severed

 Increased case loads wei reflect ed n the Departments records ever and above the usual y1Etef leye.s of former years.
 Need For Extra funds
 Acting upon the recommendation of Director Russell c. Maynard, the Board took action to request additional funds because oi tie an ticipated increase in requests iur assistance during the coming year. Unemployment, scarcity of jobs, de- mands for medical and caild care requiring increases in payments were explained by the Director IS i.aing causes for the need of addi- tional funds. Indications pointed to an influx during the ccirjng sriing and summer of many per- sons from the States and the ne- ces5isy of having sufficient funds ava:Ies sle tO return indigent persons to their homes should they become in need when in the Territory. The Departments policy prohihiss the granting of relief to non-residents.
 Director Maynard advised the
 
 Board that in his opinion this pol icy should ke maintained in order to avert the consequences of a similar influx of outsiders in l9,S and 1889, which caused the De- partment to request deficiency ap- propriations at that time.
