Alaska Speaks
A copy of ALASKA SPEAKS, Vd.
11, lies before ub. It Is printed la
Girwood, Alaska, aud M. L. Whit
ney is the business manager. There
are a number of interesting articles
witnin tne covers. The general aim
apparently, is to open the eyes of re
sident Alaskans as to the conditions
surrounding them, what Alaska is
doing and how greatly it is “being
done” by “Big Capital.” From dif
ferent publications coming in one
should judge that there is a gener
al awakening of those who have an
idea that Alaska is something mo'e
than a grab bag for Seattle. We
don’ mind giving an enjoyable time
*o the whole world, roi do we kirk
at supplying the needful, but hL
lopsided expoitatiou has about gone
far enough, don’t you think? An
interesting part of "ALASKA
SPEAKS” is the personal appaa’. of
xVTarah L. Whitney, of Waveriy,
Mass.
. . AN ALL-ALA SKA REVIEW . .
The Daily Cordova Times hai got
ten out an ALL-ALASKA REVIEW
for 1927. It is clean, typographic
ally; a source of wide information;
splendidly illustrated and a fine ad
ition to any one’3 library.

BEYOND UNDERSTANDING
The butchering of a young gi»*! in
California, recently by one William
Heckman goes so far beyond us that
we’ve given up making any attempt
to fathom the act. How any one,
and young at that, could step so far
aside of the normal run of th’ngs
and mutilate a fellow being so fiend
ishly Is—well—we just can’t unde*.*
stand it.

West Coast of Prince of Wales Island
—and the receiving mills in Seattle

new cement factory will be in the
neighborhood of four million dollars.
The old Clipper ship St. Paul has
been barge converted and will go in
to commission at once with cargo
for the new outfit.
A GROWING FUND
OF INFORMATION

proaches the Library of Congress,
Washington, D. C. In 1926 an Act
was passed permitting the library

totaling $700,000.

WHO WANTS TO BET ON DOGS,
ANYWAY
The Supreme Court has held that
betting on dog races is illegal. It
appears that the case came up thru
one of the Kentucky Courts by the
owner of the Grayhound Race Track
The Kentucy Court held that bet
ting on dog rares was not permiss
Ling on dog races was not permiss
ible. The race track owners appeal
K< ntucky Court.
