THE MESSAGE FROM GARFIELD
Power is generated by energy and energy by the will
“to do.” Have you ever seen a heavy cart or truck stuck
fast in a rut of mud? The jaded horse or run-down en
gine unable to move it another inch because of drooping
spirit or defection. A dozen onlookers—some. merely
wating to see what is going to happen—others giving ad
vice and direction. But none of these will start the cart
or truck moving. Then from the crowd step out three or
four “doers.” They put their shoulders to the wheel
lending both effort and example until others follow them.
The thing begins to move, gain momentum as all things do
when once out of a rut. And so it is with civic progress
—community movements, local enterprises—when “do
ers” put their shoulders to the wheel.”
C. D. Garfield, assistant secretary of the Alaska de
partment, Seattle Chamber of Commerce, delivered a
message from Seattle at noon today to not only the busi
ness men of Seward but to every resident of Seward, a
message assuring the sincere support of the Seattle
Chamber in putting their shoulder to the wheel in the in
terests of the Territory. Never before in the history of
Alaska have conditions been so ideal for real development
and progress of a permanent nature, Mr. Garfield said,
and in reaffirming Seattle’s activities in rendering assist
ance to her northern neighbor, his message is particular
ly cheering to those oldtime residents of this district, who
have, for so many years devoted the best years of their
lives in the upbuilding of the last frontier of the United
States as well as to the later-day arrivals, now among us.
* The more rapid the development of Alaska means
the thrice-fold advancement for the port of Seattle.
Good blood helps, but it takes training to tap a cigar
ette on the thumb nail in that grand manner.
Man always seems happiest while beholding himself
in a mirror after the barber has done his stuff.

It has been figured out by an ex
pert statistician that a Pennsylvania ,
statesman would be worth $1.060.(*00 i
to the country if he served in the
senate continuously for 37.S96 years.
The same high authority also esti
mates that the line of “the people of
Pennsylvania” upon whom Joe Grun
dy relies for the recovery of that
$300,000 campaign fund would stretch
out so far that it would take one-mil
lionth of a minute for it to pass a
given point.
