not have the necessary papers
to carry passengers, but at the

JEALOUSY INJURES
ALASKA TOWNS
In Valdez and Seward, the
daily newspapers are Having a
great laugh over the disasters
that meet their local ships.
This is done in an effort to
show the superiority of the re
spective ports. When the rail
road has a snowslide the laugh
ter becomes general an even in
the face of death and disaster,
the misguided editors keep up
the jealous snarling back and
forth. It is no time for mer
riment and such continued act
ion but reflects on the towns.
Each has a harbor capable of
handling the navy of the entire
•country but neither will ever
be called upon to do so. Why
not eliminate this childish
lighting?—Railroad iv Marine
