The people of the United States last week elected a Congress which will be overwhelmingly Democratic.
 Tn the U. s. Senate there will be only 34 Republicans, but 62 Democrats plus the two senators from Alaska. .| no get results for Alaska it .is as simple as A-B-C that the thing to do is send two Democratic sen- ators to work with that big Dem ocratic majority.
 To send a Republican senator to Washington would be the height of folly- His would be a voice crying in the wilderness \.
 On November 25. elect 0two Democratic senators from Alas- ka: Ernest Gruening and Bob Bartlett.

THANK YOU NOTICE

We wish to express our thanks and deepest appreciation to our many friends and neighbors for their kindnesses and help when we lost our home by fire. Also we especially wish to thank ana commend the Palmer Fire De- partment for their valiant effort to save the building and con- tents. The fact that they were unsuccessful was in no way due to lack of skill or fire fighting technique but simply to the lack of sufficient equipment to do the job If they could have ap- piled four nozzIes for l5 minutes instead of one, and occasionally two, at any time within the first hour of their struggle, we would be cleaning house today instead 0f looking for one.
