SEWARD’S POSSIBLE RIGHT
Many times we have been told there are some people in this world
who are incessantly expecting the impossible. Many of us would be
tailing along ignorant to the fact that we are deterioriating, mental
ly? physically, financially and above all, retrogressing to such an ex
tent beyond the bound of ever regaining any of our losses. With this
in view we advance Seward's right in regaining the establishment of
her game warden which she is rightly entitled to.
Many promises have been made, anti when Seward expresses her
desire of obtaining such office its people are not aware of anything that
could be called th^impossible. Some people expect many things which
to our way of thinking would be the impossible for an official to ac
complish, but w hen we foster a perfect right in the face of logic facts
what more can be said ?
Seward’s game warden was taken away and delivered to Anchorag#
about a year or so ago. What a move! Obviously enough, E. P.
Walker, game executive for the Territory, has been studying the moot
situation, but as yet, like the 57 varieties, gets hung up after being
messed up and time goes on and the people just slip. But Seward
isn t going to forget! Such a move, which will be both an asset to
Seward and to the Treasury of the United States Government should
receive proper publicity, and the subject will be brought before the
eyes of such of 1 lcials and the people to prove that Seward needs such
an office, needs it badly and will go after it with undue prejudice.
There will be facts published from time to time in the Seward
Gaily and Weekly Gateway; opinions will be welcome from Seward
itcs or anyone vitally interested in the above move. Reasons will „et
their light thru these columns and no doubt should bear fruit.
League Blows Up; Scrub
Games Now the Favorite
The ildcats slipped it over on
the Bears last night when they
came out on the long end of a 15
to 13 indoor baseball fracas at the
S. A. C. Apparently the league has
gone haywire, for, but a scant hand
ful of the regulars were on
band to play off the sched
uled game between the Giants and
the Pirates, so a scrub game was
played off. For the Bears, Snyder
and PauLsteiner took care of the bat
tery work, and for the Wildcats,
Lien and Swetmann performed.
Homeruns were made by Swetmann,
McLaughlin and Sheldon. Bolam

Two Sure-Enough Bull
Fights in “The Spaniard”
History has it that at least two
! kings of Spain, Charles V. and Phi
lip IV., entered the arena and showed
their prowess at their country’s na
tional sport—bull fighting. So when
Ricardo Cortez, in the title role of
the new Paramount picture, “The
Spaniard”, demonstrated his skill in
the bull ring, he was but following
the footsteps of the great men of
Spain.

New Westward
Edition
The Seward Daily Gateway once more is taking the
initiative in advancing the interests of Alaska—This time
it will be an edition devoted strictly to the Westward, both
conducive to the Fur Farmers and the Fish Canning
Industry. This edition will perhaps be the only one of its
kind ever produced in the Territory. Its size will be that
of the Saturday Evening Post, and will be profuse with
pictures depicting fox raising, the canning of Alaska
fish and, through the courtesy of Merl LaVoy, the Gate
way is grateful in securing some of the finest pictures
of the sealing industry that have ever been taken. With
all, this edition promises to advance the welfare of the
big westward district which Seward alone is the Gateway.
Many correspondents have been arranged and thru the
last mail indications point that the special edition for our
neighbors will go over big. At another time announce
ment will be made as to the date of this publication, but
it will not be off the press before July.
The Gateway solicits articles for this edition which
will be of especial interest to those concerned. As was
said before, this will be a strictly Westward edition, dedi
cated to the Fur Farmers and the Fish Canning inter
ests of the Westward and Southwest district..
Advertising rates will be sent upon application.

pondence of the SewTard Chamber of

soliciting the support of numerous
Congressmen, many of whom, during
their recent trips to Alaska and

the stream pointing out the local
problem.
