GET THE TOURISTS.
The Seattle Commerc ial Club has
commented a campaign to get the
tourist trade foi the Pacific Coast and
Alaska The conditions are most fav
orable for the suic.-sH of their efforts
and tlie commercial organizations of
Seattle are not slow to take advantage
of the situation. The Seattle Spirit
has often been refened to here m Al
aska and the term has had an oppro
brious meaning, but after all the Seat
tle Spirit has done nuieh for Alaska
and is to do much more. In so many
instances lias this Seattle Spirit come
lo the assistance of Alaska and demon
strated that Seat11. is heart and sold
with ns that the Seattle Spirit no
longer is a term of opprobrium but has
come to be recognized as but the man
ifestation of a broadmindedness which
recognizes the dose relations which
must ever exist between them and
Uaska am! on broad business prin
flples seek to develop Alaska's re
sources and recognize the mutual de
pendanee which exists between them.
It is known that many millions of
1
dollars have been annually spent In
Europe by tourists from the American
continent and notv that the doors of
Kill-..up are closed tots Immensely pro
fitable animal influx of wealth and the
question Is why should not the great
West and Alaska capture tills extreme
ly profitable tourist travel and divert
it to the greatest scenic section of the
globe. This is what the Seattle Com
mercial bodies ale attempting to do.
Already Eastern railways are adver
tising the West and Alaska as the'
great wonder-land in which the tourist
can spend the summer.and enjoy all of
ihe natural sceneries of Europe mag
nified many times over Where can be
found grander acenefy than in Alaska
which can he reached by commodious
steamers from Seattle and the ocean
trips through hundreds of miles of
placed waters between thousands of
islands which present the most varied
and delightful scenery that may be
seen upon the globe ' There Is scenery
which cannot be excelled or equalled
in its beauty and extent and grandeur
by any trip that may be selected
though it takes in all the rest of the
world Do the wealthy tourists wish to
escape the summer heat of the East and
South and Middle West or ,of South
Ymetivti" Then the great West and
vbiska in addition to the most wonder
ful scenery in the world will provide a
summer tourist trip through a country
which at every stage will be a com
fort, giving »1ip greatest possible op
portunity to enjoy without the dis
comforts so usually incident on the
tourist trips to other portions of the
world The opportunity has presented
itself to divert the American tourist
travel Alaskaward and every town in
Alaska should hasten to put forth au
effort to attract the current to Alaska,
the land of wonders The Seattle Com
mercial Club has commenced a cam
| paign and Initiated it by a whole page
• f advertising of the advantages of
fered to tourists who visit the
Pacific Coast, in the Seattle Post-In
telligencer This is tiut the beginning
and it is proposed to advertise on a
large scale making use of the great
Eastern dallies and magazines for this
purpose Already attention has been
drawn to Alaska by reason of its great
mineral wealth and more recently by
the discussion in Congress which led
to the government undertaking to
build the Alaska railroad and it but
remains for those who are interested
to Judiciously advertise and attract
thousands of tourists to this country
tiie coming summer as a part of the
- ininter vacation which will tiring
them to the coast to visit the two
fairs in California. We in Nome should
see to it that what the Seattle Spirit
starts Alaska winds should not stop
before reaching the shores of Bering
Sen. To do this our Commercial club
should be revived and take active
measures to have printed matter at the
headquarters in Seattle, at the fairs In
San Francisco and San Diego and at
Eastern centers We need some of the

POLAND IN THE WAR.
( nh.ippv is the fate of marginal na*
tii n- .nd buffer states in this day of
International conflict. Belgium, the
least concerned, logically, of all the
combatants, is much the worst suf
ferer, and the days of her misery are
not yet told To lie invaded and tram
pled and laid waste in your own quar
rel is bad enough. To suffer that fate
in a quarrel which is none of yours is
the extreme of ironic tragedy, the
clamix of fate's mad illogic.
This is Belgium's case, and the pity
Of the world goes out to her But thPt-i
is another Belgium There Is another

of the huge alliances at war Boland is
