AN INEVITABLE TRAP
Alaska is a poor place for fugitives from
justice to attempt to hide out in. A recent
example in Southeastern Alaska bears out
this statement againj also has it been borne
out in the Interior, taking the arrest of the
alleged mail robbers. Ordinarily one might
be lead to believe it is just the reverse, but
not so. In coming to the Territory to do
the vanishing act fugitives enter what
might be termed a “funnel.” Regardless of
how long a time they remain hidden in the
thousands of remote places they eventually
emerge and 99 chances out of 100 they will
be nabbed even before they pass by the ports
of embarkation for the Outside.
If the Northwestern is late arriving in Se
ward wont the gas car be mad. Oh, My!
A waitress in one of the local restaurants
said that many a moon has gotten full after |
spending its last quarter.
BIG AIRSHIPS
A useful by-product of the journey of the
Norge is the impetus given to the plans to
build new dirigibles nearly twice the size
of the Los Angeles. The House of Repre
sentatives has already approved of two of
these large vessels for the national service,
and a plant at Akron announces the com
pletion of the design for another as a pri
vate venture. The new monster is to have
accommodations for 100 passengers and will
move at 90 miles an hour, with a maximum
cruising radius nearly thrice the distance
between New York and Southampton. The
contrast is striking between the comforta
ble and commodius appointments of this
craft and the meager sleeping quarters of
the Norge. But the latter ship in its pheno
menal exploit did much not merely to de
stroy apprehension concerning transpolar
voyages but to remove the incubus that rest
ed in all lighter-than-air machines since the
tragic fate of the Shenandoah.
A Seward citizen during a conversation
yesterday said that when he clied he would
want only three words inscribed on his
tombstone which shall merely read: “See
you later.”
You can’t blame Moses for leading his
people out of a country that wouldn’t ac
cept a gift of ten million dollars.
Since under the Constitution a man must
have reached a ripe maturity before he may
be President, it is most unusual for one to
be survived by his father. The venerable
sire of Warren G. Harding lives on to wit
ness a nation's tribute to a son who caused'
him no grief but when he died.
The shorter the skirt, the longer the life,
declares a Paris physician. The span of
life, he says, is in direct proportion to the
brevity and scarcity of clothing. Fay Tem
pleton, Fanny Bryce, and others of the “Lin
ger-Longer” chorus, will probably migrate
to the South Sea Islands.

Within a few weeks candidates will be
calling at your office with their campaign
advertising. They won’t bat an eye when
you tell them your political rate. They’re
out for office.* And what’s a dollar or two
to a candidate—before election?
But get the cash with the order! Too
many newspapers in Alaska have too many j
unpaid campaign accounts on their books.
Get the money! Get it in advance! It's
much easier for a candidate to write a check
when he orders his advertising.
Theer will be less fuss made on Fathers
Day, but maybe they’ll let dad sleep an hour
longer on that morning.
