MISQUOTED BY
NENANA NEWS
Declares That His Posit

Misrepreseneed by
That Paper
i
Juienu, Feb. 12, 1918.
Editor The Daily Empire,
Sir:
In your editorial columns or
Saturday, Feb. 9, 1918, you pub
lished an article, under the head
ing, "MALONEY oil EIGHT HOUR,"
•which ran as follows:
“The Nenana News in an editor
ial refers to the eight-hour and
the opinion of William Maloney, Ter
ritorial Mine Inspector, as follows:
‘Territorial Mine Inspector,
William Maloney declares that
the development of the Terri
tory will receive a tremendous
set-back if the law is enforced
owing to the shortage of labor,
which will be created.’ ”
"This statement is absolutely
false, I have never made such a
statement to anyone, and where
the Nenana News, or any other
paper can get the foundation for
•auch misrepresentation is a conur.-'
drum.
Anyone that knows me, knows
that 1 have always been an advocate
->of the eight-hour day, even before
its passage.
William Maloney.
The above is an excerpt taken
from the statement of Mr. Maloney’s
published in the Juneau Empire of
February 14, 1918. Adv.

A Few Lines
From J. Winters
Just a few lines to let you know
'hat the Seattle spirit has not got
me as yet. I have been here ever
since I came out and have had a
good time and am feeling fine;
think I will stay here for some time.
Seattle is some town now, every
one seems to be busy and wages
are good for the winter time. There
are twenty or thirty thousand men
engaged in ship building and about
the same amount of soldiers at Camp
Lewis. The loggings woods and saw
mills are running full blast and all
other industries as well. I never
have seen so many people in Seattle
before. Hotels and rooming houses
are all full and you have to wait
for a seat in the restaurants at
meal time. There are more people
working, they wear better clothes,
eat better and spend more money
in amusements than any time since
I have been on the coast. It is
nothing to see a double line a
block long in front of one of the
movies, and the dance halls are
crowded. There are lots of young
people in Seattle, and there is lots
of work for girls. Hashers got
$12.00 per week, eight hcurs, meals
ar.d one day off per week. The
working girls are all dolled up to
beat the band, and I thought they
were all of the fcur hundred when
I first came out.
I d'.d not go to Texas r.s I intend
ed, as I g-.t word my fatl.~r had
died, but I may go there later on.
I am working in Duthrie’s Ship
Yard rigging stations. The pay is
four dollars per day and double
time for overtime and Sundays.
Last week I made $44.00. The
cost of board and lodging is about
$10.00 per week. Most of the Nome
bunch are working in shipyards
here and I see them quite often.
Harry Phillips, Denny Loveway, Art
Andre, young Miller and several
others are working where I am.
John F. Donoghue is also in the
same yard and I was over to the
ship he is working on the other
day. He is the same old John for
figures, and he was busy with a
piece of chalk figuring Aut the num
ber of rivets in ship.
Martin Strand has organized a
stock company of his antimony
mine and is busy selling stock. Gus
Hed was in town the other night.
He and his brother Carl are living
on their land on Vaslion Island and
have a Ford to run around with,
Gus has fully recovered from his
indisposition.
Best regards to all the hoys.

5 “It is a fearful thing to lead this great peaceful country J
J into war, into the most terrible and disastrous of all wars, J
* civilization itself seeming to be in the balance. *
| } But the right is more precious than peace, and we shall ★
J fight for the things which we have always carried nearest our J
J hearts—for democracy, for the rig’it of those who submit to *
* authority to have a voice in their own governments, for the ★
5 rights and liberties of small nations, for a universal dominion *
* of right by such a concert of free peoples as shall bring peace £
* and safety to all nations and make the world Itself at last free. ★
To such a task we can dedicate our lives and our fortunes, *
$ everything that we are and everything that we have, with the J
J pride of those who know that the day has come when America *
*1 is privileged to spend her blood and her might for the principles ★
4 that gave her birth and happiness and the peace which she has +
J treasured. ★
* God helping her, she can do no other.” *
