southerly direction across the Tokot

company’s telephone line all the way
thru to Candle creek. The trail pass

The work on the Candle Creek-To
kotna trail last season consisted of
citing out all bad windfalls and
brushing out the small creek crossing
on the trail throughout. Accommoda
tions for the work on Candle Creek
was given by the company for the
benefit derived for their telephone line
by cutting out leaning trees and wind
falls. One of the trestle foot bridges
was repaired by the Alaska Road Com
mission crew, which was engaged on
the work above named, over the slough
near Tokotna.
MORTON GREGORY
DEFENDS ALASKA
HERE LAST YEAR
HIGH MASONIC OFFICIAL MORAL
CONDITIONS EXCELLENT
IN ALASKA
TACOMA, Feb. 13. (/P)—Aroused by
the statement of Dr. Clarence Wil
son, before the senate judiciary sub
committee this week, Morton Greg
ory, Masonic grand master of Wash
ington and Alaska, issued a state
ment today in which he declared
that conditions in Alaska compare
favorably with those of the state of
Washington. “I spent seven weeks
in Alaska last fall and one week dur
ing December,” he said, “and I have
seen more indications of immorality
in Seattle in one week than I did in
Alaska during my entire stay. I was
not once offered a drink of intoxi
cants and did not see one drunken
person.
“If I had a son to send to college
where he would be away from the
jazz that surrounds the youth of this
country, I would send him to the col
lege at Fairbanks.”
Mr. Gregory conceded that some im
morality might exist in Alaska “in
some of the cannery towns on the
coast where men and women workers
are imported from ‘America’,” but he
argued that “there people cannot be
“Law enforcement is rigid in Alas
classed as Alaskans.”
ka and the people realize that the
laws must be obeyed.” Gregory de
clared, in conclusion that he could
not understand the basis of Dr. Wil
son’s statement.
NOTE—The above statement, repub
lished from ^he , Anchorage Tlimeg,
with reference to general Alaska con
ditions, is practically the identical
statement he made to The Seward
Gateway during his visit here last
summer.—Ed
Jess Lander, proprietor of the O. K.
Barber Shop is a returning passenger
on the Victoria leaving Seattle to
day. Mrs. Landers will protract her
trip.
A French woman ‘cannot have a
bank account without the consent of
her husband.
Looking Ahead!
Alaskan progress of the past forecasts the future greatness of
the Northfland, and justifies all Alaskans in holding to their firm faith
in the Territory's possibilities and worth. By aiming high and
working together—actively and steadily—those having to do with
Alaskan progress can accomplish much. Looking ahead to still
greater things, and planning and working accordingly, is the one
way that a high purpose can be realized.
The Alaska Railroad—a pioneer'system—is gradually and pains
takingly striding towards a great goal—the greater development of
Alaska; and, that the future is bright and promising is attested by
the steady and consistent upward trend of past and present activi
ties. The Alaska Railroad is “Looking Ahead.”
