A. E. C. REORGANIZATION.
•'In order to afford eariy informa
tion relative to the new organiza
tion which is to go into effect on
the first of December, I cal! your
attention to the following proposed
changes and consolidations,” wrote
Chairman Meats recently to the
Anchorage Daily Times:
“The new organization abolishes
the Seward and Anchorage divisions,
as such, and divides all construction
work on the Alaska railroad into
two grand divisions—the Southern
division, in charge of Mr. William
Gerig as assistant chief engineer,
extending from Seward to the sum
mit of Broad Pass, Mile 315; and
the Northern division, in charge of
Mr. Fred’k D. Browne, extending
from Broad Pass to Fairbanks.
"Three other divisions are cre
ated, namely: Supply division. Ac
counting division, and Purchasing
division. The new supply division
will be in charge of Mr. H P.
Warren, with office and headquar
ters at Seward. Mr Warrer. will
have charge of all supply matter1
in Alaska pertaining to the railroad
work and will also supervise ali in
and outbound shipments of ocean
freight, as well as the hiring of
employes. It is proposed to land
all inbound Commission cargo at
Seward, distributing it northward
over the railroad to points as re
quired.
“Operation of trains, maintenance
of way, and maintenance of equip
ment. as well as telegraph and tele
phony service, will be handled by
the separate departments, with cen
tral offices at Anchorage. A tw.ee
a-week train sendee will, as far as
possible, be maintained between the
two towns.”
OUT WITH THEM.
We have dealt too gently with
the unpatriotic alien nuisance, be
lieves the editor of Leslie's Weekly.
It is disturbing the industrial situa
tion, he says, and blockading pros
perity. It is sowing the seeds of
revolution. It is inspired by the
Bolsheviki and the 1 W. W. It
must be abated.
There has been too much "pussy
footing.” There has been too much
palavering with the element of un
rest. There has been too much ca
tering to the army of aliens that
has poured in upon the United
States with^no other purpose than
to seek the benefits of our free
land and to give nothing in return.
A distinguished Democratic mem
ber of Congress recently wrote to i
friend that “never before have I
beard witnesses so insolent as those
that have appeared in the name of
labor. They are hurting the cause
they profess to serve. I only hope
the real workers will soon discover
it.”
Strikes in our great industries are
not inspired by patriotic American
workmen, nor da the latter coun
tenance violence. This is usually
the work of aliens. The names of
strikers arrested for inciting riots,
disturbing the peace and intimida
tion around Pittsburgh are signifi
leant and include the following:
Kameski, Kourich, Troski, Gurdos,
Sloviki, Jerkovich. Yelovitch. At
i
the West Penn Steel company’s
plant, the news- dispatches report
that seven hundred American-born
employes were at work with only
six foreigners out of 450. This tells
the story.
It is high time that these undi
gested and indigestible aliens should
be measured for what they are
worth. They know nc loyalty to the
country that has given them a home,
a living and wages beyond the
wildest dreams of their avarice.
They seek no permanent abiding
place here. Fealty goes to foreign
countries.
It is time for the Liberty Bell
to be rang again. We welcome the
immigrants who come to make this
their home, to give allegiance to the
American flag, and to stand fast
for the principles of our Govern
ment. These have been an im
portant factor in the upbuilding of
this new land. We recognize their
worth. For years they have been
welcome. They are among our best
citizens. Our doors have been open
wide, for we needed them, and will
welcome strangers to our shores as
long as they blend with our popula
tion. accept American principles,
and follow the American flag.
But those who will not seek nat
uralization, who despise our Con
stitution, who spit upon our flag,
and are at the beck and call of
soap-box orators and false leaders
of labor of Bolshevik and I. W. W.
stripe, should be driven from every
factory, shop, and office. They have
been fed, clothed and enriched, only
to turn to bite the hand that feeds
them. We have dealt with this un
assimilated element too gently. Wo
have been patient too long. if
neither of the great parties rises to
the emergency and seeks to put
an end to the malign influence
these have been exerting in our in
dustrial field, a new political party
will arise, made up of true Ameri
cans, whose motto will be: ”Our
flag, our country and our freedom.”
LADIES WILL RAFFLE
CHURCH DOLL TONIGHT
The ladies who are in charge of
the preparations for the entertain
ment to be given at the Coliseum
on December 29 for the benefit of
the local Catholic church, will hold
a rafffc at the Terminal tonight
for the purpose of disposing of the
large doll which was turned over to
them by the Ladies’ Aid society.
Practically all the ticket? have been
disposed of during the past several
days. The drawing will take place
at 7:30, and all the children who
assisted with the sale of tickets are
requested to be on hand.
A cut glass dish has been given
to the committee by Wm. Taylor,
the jeweler, to be given away on
the night of the entertainment as
a second door prize.
A Bald-Headed Maxim.
Instead of the hairs of our head
; being numbered, we would prefer
jto have them fastened in better.—
'Boston Transcript.
BIG METRO FEATURE
ATTRACTION TONIGHT
Douglas Fairbanks, Francis X.
Bushman, and Beverly Bayne will
be seen in the leading roles of the
'strong double bill to be shown at
jthe Coliseum tonight, Fairbanks will
| appear in the Department Service
i picture, “Knocking the Knockers,"
'and the other two favorites will star
in the Metro feature, “The Voice
of Conscience.” a six-reeler of much
merit.
“The Voice of Conscience" pro
tides a powerful story for Bushman
and Miss Bayne, the latter appear
ing as sweet Allane Houston, a true
daughter of the Southland. Bush
iman has the difficult task of im
personating two different men.
By a strange turn of fate, Will
I iam Potter is obliged to imperson
ate James Houston to comfort
Houston's dying mother, to protect
his young sister and to handle his
i business affairs. He falls in love j
i with Allane, but dares not confess
'
his love. Then the message comes:
i that the real James Houston is re- ;
turning home, and a dramatic and
| wholly satisfying climax completes a
wonderful photodrama.
