RESTORE AND INCREASE BOUNTY SYSTEM
The predatory animal law should be repealed and
the bounty system not only reopened but increased.
There can be no argument against this statement
by reason of the following facts:
The sum of $40,000 was appropriated to combat
predatory animals in Alaska. All fur from such ani
mals were to be sold and the money derived from these
sales turned into the coffers. A number of men have
been steadily employed in this work and of especial in-1
terest to tax payers is the number of hides, or furs
sold. As has been said, $40,000 was appropriated.
Here she be; one coyote, one wolverine, one red
fox, one marten, two weasels. Total sales, $80.50.
Sweet patootie!
WE STARTED IT AND WE’LL BE SORRY
England and all her Dominions and Colonies is
having a big potlatch in London. They are all there
from the seven quarters of the globe. One of the first
things they did was put up a 20 per cent tariff in spite
of the fact that England has always held strongly for
free trade. The men at the conference had evidently
heard what every other country on earth is doing,—'
planning a reprisal against these fair United States)
who ask for amity and well being while trying to stick |
them all in the back with the worst tariff law that ever)
came out of Congress.
It seems idle to discuss the machinery of tariff be
cause nobody seems to understand it but those directly
interested. Try and figure it out yourself.
The new tariff was originally intended to aid the
farmer. Somebody had to help the poor farmer so we
finally decided that a revision of the tariff was the
first and only proper panacea. The idea somehow was
to get more money for the stuff the farmer had to sell
and cut down on the stuff he had to buy. That’s it by
and large. Well then, here’s where you should begin
to laugh.
They have not only fixed it to give the big corpor
ations a greater margin of profit against the world
than they ever had before without helping the farmer
by one dollar but they have made us the enemy of
every nation on earth.
Its idle to talk about less battleships and armies
and less airplanes when nitwits are permitted to jug
gle dollars on the pretext of helping anybody anywhere.
There never has been a war that wasn’t started on ,
greed and there never will be. If we really didn’t want
something we wouldn’t fight for it.
Now they are beginning to want something which
in broad terms is parity with the United States by fix- ,
ing tariff of their own and in polite society known as ;
cutting the other guy’s throat, and that neck mostly ,
is Uncle Sam’s.
To our mind there was never a greater crime pull- ]
ed in American history than the Smoot-Hawley bill. ,
Anybody who knows Smoot and his interests in the 1
beet sugar industry and Hawley’s interest with the
wool growers can understand.
The call of aid to the farmers was all “bushwaugh” !
3f one stops to think. Personally we cant figure out why 1
farmers should be helped at the expense of the govern- ,
ment any more than us plumbers. But anyway that 1
gave them a chance of trying to help said farmer and '
wiping out a large part of our foreign trade. If your
a good thinker, there’s a cross-word puzzle.
It must be that the weather has something to do
do with it. As everybody around here knows Seward
has been experiencing some beautiful weather. At the
same time it has been generally reported that radio
reception has been extraordinary good. Be calm and
remain meek in the knowledge of your many blessings.
SEAS JETSAM STILL
FOEIHS FROM WRECK
Of GOLDEN FOREST
The ill-fated Golden Forest
wrecked in ShelikofT Strait near
ly two years ago is still giving
up her wonderful store of gaso
■ line and oils that has been sal
vaged by the halibut schooner
Explorer, Captain Magnus Han
sen, in port today.
“We still have a camp near
the wreck where we have been
storing the salvaged cargo. I
have already delivered some of
this to Seward and I am now
going after some more for An
chorage which I will bring over
in a few days and then I’ll go
back for still another cargo for
Cordova. I have just finished
delivery of some to Juneau.”
There is very little cargo now
left aboard the big freighter
that is savable, but some of the
gear can be salvaged,” Captain
Hansen said.
NEW RADIO MAST
Traffic was completely jammed
on the Seward highway Tuesday by
a gang of rough-looking hombres
who snaked a long pole across the
road and then sat down on it to
breathe. Closer investigation dis
closed the fact that it was J. H.
Flickinger, E. P. Harwood, Andy
Novak. Harold Painter and Mr.
Cramer engaged in getting out a
radio mast- Casual inspection dis
closed that the pole extended far
into the deep timber where an
other gang could be dimly discern
de in the distance.
