Laid in typical Beery country, the frontiers of the early 1800's, the story casts the star as an intamous cutthroat whose robber gang ter- { rorizes the countryside. When, dur- ing one of his raids, Big Jack is shot in the leg, he saves the personable young Dr. Alexander Meade from hanging so that the latter may re- move the bullet. Happy with the outcome of the crudely performed operation, Big Jack is determined to keep Meade with him as his personal physician but the doctor has other ideas.

VOTERS OF ALASKA— ‘The smear campaign being di- rected against me by unprincipled and anonymous persons in the last few days hardly deserves notice. The issues facing Alaska are seri- ous and should not be obscured by malicious slanders. One of the sland- arous lies infers that I support and >ncourage Communism. My friends, acquaintances and business asso- ciates know how ridiculous that statement is. My record as a pri: vate citizen and as a legislator »pen to closest scrutiny. Most of you know that I operate my own tailor shop—a trade which 1 have followed most of my adult life. I have been an active church member and participated in various lodge actitivities. My children and grandchildren live here in Juneau I feel that I-am an ordinary person with the same problems and the same ambitions as other citizens. I served in the Legislature in 1947 and 1949, and am proud of my ‘ecord in those two sessions. I will sontinue in my efforts in behalf of jecent and adequate pensions for our aged people. In both sessions [ have introduced and fought for iecent pensions—at least $75.00 a month. That’s not Communism— that’s the Alaska brand of Ameri- canism. Work on the new Territorial Build- ing in Juneau should begin in a few months. The committee from the Juneau Chamber of Commerce who attended the sessions of the legis- lature and advocated this project are to be congratulated. The people in Juneau owe a vote to all those First Division legislators who sup- ported that proposal. Iam proud of my part in getting this building for Juneau by getting the appropriation increased from $250,000 to $660,000. Naturally $250,00 would not have given Juneau the kind of building we want but $660,000, which wé ob- tained, gives us the building we need. With your support I shall con- tinue to work for the enactment of 1aws which improve the living stand- ards of all resident Alaskans—laws which advance the prosperity of Ju- neau and the First Division. G. E. ALMQUIST FOR THE SENATE. (Paid Adv.) dominated by a few corporations— an argument he said he had heard many times because 136 small busi- nesses had been incorporated re- cently in the Territory showing faith in the future by residents. 1f there was such a danger, Chap- man said, it would have greater leeway under Territorial status than under statehood. The Secre- tary said he thinks some areas in Alaska would be due for higher taxes under statehood. He pointed out his appointment three months ago of a committee to examine all land withdrawals in the Territory since 1867 and his hope that much of this withdrawn land might be released for public use. Land sur- veys are behind because Alaska has no Senators and Congressmen to push such matters, Chapman asserted. As for the Alaska Railroad, Chap- man said it primarily should be for national defense and the de- velopment of Alaska and as such should be federally supported and managed. DELEGATE CANDIDATE AND WIFE VISITING HERE Almer J. Peterson, candidate for Delegate to Congress in tomorrow’s election on the Republican ticket, with Mrs. Peterson, is in Juneau this week, having arrived from Seward on the Baranof.

Following his visits to these im- portant lodge affairs Peterson and his wife will tour the southern states, go to Mexico, and then re- | turn to Alaska via the west coast| and be at home in Anchorage in| time to participate in the fall elec- tion campaign.
