NOTHING LIKE IT
There is nothing we can conceive so swift, so certain,
so sure as the International Highway into Alaska. Its
possibilities leap beyond our poor imagination. We fondle
as a cherished dream the thought that er’r long we will
be burning up rubber along its reaches and arguing with
gasoline stations. We hope that British Columbia, Cana
da and the United States will get together soon and try
to figure out how to bring the greatest happiness to the
greatest number of human souls.
If all the nations of the world could be induced to
send their automobiles here and ramble thru the wonder
ful, glamorous countries of two great nations at peace,
methinks ‘twere well for world amity. What say, Watson?

Thus, in order to sastisfy the lust of a small group
• f crucifiers of liberty, they demand it is necessary to
create a criminal to catch a criminal under the Anti-Sa
loon League’s mode of procedure.
Ls it any wonder that a man with a vestige of decen
cy refuses to assist in welding prohibition onto the
r: tion?
The country ahead is always more alluring. And so
n is with the Westward country, adjacent to the Port of
Seward. There are scores of opportunities out there for
the settler and but little capital is required.
The Akutan whaling station still smells like any
thing but the popular “Roses of Picardy.”
