SAY FRIEND.
Ixi you realize that it is up to you,'
as well as every one else residing in
the Seward peninsula district, to get
busy at the task of assisting the fur
la u envelopment of the territory from j
which you art deriving your living? ;
You know as well as anyone that de- I
\elopment is fast coming to a stand- l
still owing to the lack of roads and'
other transportation facilities which
will permit the miner to carry on his
labors to better advantage. You real- ;
iz.e that there ale innumerable oppor
tunities for industrial expansion in all j
parts of the territory, that there are !
hundreds on hundredfs of acres of low
grade gold bearing ground scattered
throughout the district, all of which !
can and will be worked when eondl- i
lions are more opportune. You also
know tliai there are unlimited quan
tities of tin, of Iron, of copper, of j
lead and silver as well as gold in lode
form in various sections awaiting the
day when roads will be opened and
the price of supplies reduced to the
degree that they can be profitably ex
ploited. You know, ns well as we
know, that there are more dollars, a
thousand to one, lying in the hills and
valleys of the peninsula than have •
ever been extracted. Avid you know, i
or should know, that the only way to I
get them out is to go after them—
promote development, assist in secur
ing the necessary means whereby they i
van be made available to you andme&nd i
everyone. If we wish for an increase i
of prosperity we muest work for It.
"All things come to him who waits,"
but take it from us, friends, the fellow
that get them coming first is the fel
low who gets out and hustles. We
need roads, we need a harbor, an im
proved mall service and other things.
Without them we cannot make prog
ress oi attain the fullness of pros
perity to which we are entitled by
reason of the immense resources lying
on every hand. In short, if we want
to go ahead we have to get in and
dig. There is no way out of it. If
we wish for an improvement in our
condition it is up to us to bend our
shoulders to the wheel and push the
prosperity wagon along. TVe are try
ing to do our part by boosting for the
best interests of the peninsula and Its
people at all times. We believe we
are doing our share. But, are you do
ing yours? Are you making ar. effort
to help the development of the coun
try in any way? Are you merely
drawing down your pay and letting
i lie land that provides your living take
care of itself? You can and should,
do more than this. You owe it to the
country and your fellows to lend your
best efforts to securing the things that
are so badly needed. If you don’t feel

I like doing it you arc not a good dtt<
’ zcn.
If you cannot do anything else to
help the game along you cun purchase
’ a copy of the Pictorial edition of the
Nugget Mining and Dredging Journal
and send It to the congressman of
I your home state so he will learn then
I of the needs of the country and of the
almost unlimited wealth of resources
tliat can be made available if the gov
’ efnment will provide us With roads
ahd other improvement*. You can
do tht9 much If you can't do anything
else. It will not cost mueh and may
bring results that will be of great
: profit to yourself In tbe future, it Is
| plainly your duty to do something for
the good of the. country, so why not
this? The magazine sells for fifty

THE SUBMARINE RAID.
| One of the great outstanding facts
of the war has been the Tlrltish navy.
It has done its work without any self
laudation, efficiently, and secretly.
Had the navy not been so efficient
some of the aspects would have been
f very different.
The British naval preparations to
, meet every emergency that should
■ arise has so far been adequate nl
. though Teutonic ingenuity and re
sourcefulness have at times put a
i heavy stain on the great forces of the
| greatest of sea powers,
i The recent appearance of Uerman
I submarines off the Atlantic coast for
j ihe evident purpose of destroying
I British and allied shipping as It leaves
- IP.1M »II..
| American porta inatead of trying to
cut It off uh it approaches its destin
ation leads one to wonder whether
the British admiralty has made pro
vision to meet such an eventuality. As
the radius of a submarine's activity
hus hitherto been supposed to be so
small that a trans-Atlantic trip seem
ed impossible it Is quite likely that
British high naval command had dis
missed this contingency as too re
mote *.o require -any .checkmate.
However, now that the Germans
havo cgitn done the seemingly impos
sible the British Beet has already ap
pear'd on the scene of operations In
force and It was there too In twenty
four hours after the first blow was
struck. It did not take the fast cruis
ers long to arrive from Canadian wa
ters and more ships are speeding from
the Carribean and from mid-Atlantic.
The first result of the raid was to
tie up New York shipping. It will be
Interesting to observer whether the 11
boats will continue about the ocean
highway from New York or whether
they will bob up In some unexpected j
place, although In view of wbat they j
have done no move can be considered
as entirely unexpected In the future.
They may attack shipping at Quebec
next, or appear off Galveston, Tex., for
that matter. Their future operations,
owing to the mystery surrounding
them, hold the imagination as do few
other operations of the war.
The methods to be used by the j
British in checking submarine actlvi- !
ties Is also equally Interesting and the
outcome will be watehed with greatest j
curiosity.
One of the small Ironies of fate is i
