SEWARD HOPEFUL.
News dispatches in yesterday^ pa
per state that the telegraph line be
tween Valdez and Fairbanks will be
abandoned by the War department,
and the business conducted over the
railroad line, leading one to believe
that the Signal Corps has at last suc
ceeded in inducing the department to
allow that branch of the service to
use its right-of-way as a means of com
munication.
Today’s dispatches report that a
commission has been formed with
Gov. Scott C. Bone at its head, to dic
tate Alaskan policies, and Seward has
been named as its headquarters. It is
true that this commission receives no
compensation, but the tact that its
headquarters will be here is encourag
ing to note.
That Seward may get something out
of so much notice is apparent. It we
can hold on to it for six months, it
may become a permanent institution.
Unless Congress hurries up and ap
propriates that relief money to Ger
many she will have to quit revoluting
and go to work.
Several papers in the Territory de
clare that the bar association is op
posed to women serving as jurors. Of
course they are. A majority of the
attorneys do not want a case to go to
a woman jury, knowing that they will
decide the case on its merits, with no
false sentiment or evasion of the law.
Despite all objections, the woman ju
ror is here to stay and must be reck
oned with.
LARGE HEAD OF HORNS OWNED
SY ANCHORAGE RESIDENT
What is declared to be the second
largest specimen ot sheep horns in
existence was brought to Anchorage
recently by Vincent Rogers. The
spread of the horns measures 31 l<j.
inches, and the record head is said to
measure by 33.
S. H. Gordon, an Anchorage resi
dent, passed through on one of the
last boats en route to Valdez to at
tend court, as a juror.
Miss Sallie Roop of Anchorage, who
has been visiting the past few months.'
in the States, passed through last
night on the Alaska, en route to the
Interior city, where she will be mar
ried to an Anchorage business man.
Miss Roop was one of the contestants
in the Anchorage beauty prize last
year.

Give Local Youngsters th© Best
Possible Start in Ltf3
You would throw up your hands in
holy horror, if anyone suggested that you
swipe a bench from a school building or pilfer
a single page from a book cf the school’s library.
But— are your dealings in public school
affairs as honest as you think they are—or perhaps
would like to have others suppose them to be?
They are not—absolutely not— if you are spend
ing your money for mail order merchandise. You can’t send
a centoi cash out of town for goods that can be bought in town
and support to the greatest possible extent the public schools.
Every brick in the schools—every book in
the schools’ libraries must be purchased with
school “taxes.” The size of the taxation depends
on the wealth of the community. And the wealth is governed
largely by the earning capacity of the people who live in the
Community.
Money sent away from home doesn’t pay
for one minute of home town “labor.” It doesn’t
fill the dinner pail of a single local worker. It
doesn’t enrich home dealers. It doesn’t by one word broaden
the knowledge of the children of this town—add to the
attractiveness or comfort of school days.
Money spent with local merchants travels in a
circle. It doesn’t go out of circulation when rung up on the
dealer’s cash register—as do mail order dollars when you slip
them into the mail box. The dealer spends it here. It pays the
help back of the counter, who spend it in town for goods they
Use. It assists them in purchasing homes—that can be “taxed.”
It goes into more merchandise—and that merchandise is
'taxed." And it is on taxation, remember, that your
public schools depend.
