A letter recently written by President F. W Bradley of the Alaska Juneau to Charles D. Gar field, Secretary of the Seattle Mining Club, i interesting and encouraging to the [‘n'uD\l: of Juneau in particular and those of Alaska gen- erally. President Bradley's letter was in response to one from Mr. Garfield, as Secretary of the Seattle Mining Club, congratulating him upon the successful termination of the long struggle| to make a profitable mine of the Alaska Juneau. In his reply Mr. Bradley declared: 1 am very glad to assure you that the Alaska Juneau is now a mining en- terprise that Juneau and all of Alaska can point to with pride, not only be- cause of a fa large sized payroll; but, above all, because of the demonstra- tion that there are good mines in Alaska.

Governor Smith's nomination at the Demo- cratic National Convention in Houston, Texas, is expected by virtualiy every Democrate and Re- publican leader in the East, although the Gov- ernor's supporters in other parts of the country may not be so optimistic. For second place on the Democratic National ticket some of the leaders of the Smith campaign are now considering Rep- resentatice Cordell Hull of Tennessee, former Chairman of the Democratic National Committee. Disregarding the possibility of the drafting of President Coolidge, leaders of the New York State Republican organization again have turned to Charles Evans Hughes, although Mr. Hughes also has said he would not be a candidate for In the event of the nomination of Mr. Hughes or the renomination of Mr. Cool- idge, it was said to be the plan of the organi- zation leaders to bring about the renomination of Vice-President Dawes, in the belief that a national ticket of Coolidge and Dawes or Hughes and Dawes would carry New York State and sweep the country even if Governor Smith should be the Democratic nominee. w the pre dential the parties here i Hoover Presi- parties, gene | Senate and Commission.

He had attained distinction when his name shared in the christ- ening of the Transportation Aét of 1920 (hailed on its passage with excess of enthusiasm as a sort of new emancipation proclamation for all the railroads).
