The City Coucnil has handled the
delicate matter of the Seward Volun
teer Fire department admirably and
in a businesslike manner. The Fire;
department of any community wheth
er volunteer or paid is one of the first
necessities. Petty wrangling should
be eliminated from that one depart
ment of city government and every
thing should be harmonious. With
the action taken Monday night by the
City Councilmen, the atmosphere is
cleared and all citizens will look for
ward to the reorganization of the de
partment with personal pride and sat-j
isfaction. The apparatus is now in)
splendit shape. Chief of Police tiuest
and acting night patrolman, Mike1
.Johnson, having kept the hose in good
condition, ready for instant use, the
chemicals primed and in a room
where there is always heat and have
been on the alert for incipient tires.
FOLLOWING THE FLAG
Old Glory is planted on the Euro
pean battle line. American troops
are at war grips with the Huns.
The day is coming, it is not now
far distant, when that flag, as por
>oniried in American valor, will go
“over the top.” We will bo proud and
we will be sad over the story of it.
Hut we can depend upon it the boys
we have sent, the boyj» we will send
to right for the safety of free gov
ernments. of which their own is the
greatest, will follow the flag to vic
tory. Even for those who will never
come back, death will be swallowed
up in victory.
And what is to be the r»*coid which
we who are left at home will make?
We too must follow the flag. We
must keep close behind its advance
with all the energy of production, of
self-sacrifice, or practical solicitude
for the welfare of our valiant men at
arms that we have at our command.
To win this war, we must follow
the flag with patriotic heart and soul
a hundred million strong.
_a-—
A STUPENDOUS VICTORY.
LET US REJOICE! The great
Liberty Loan succeeded. America
has given the lie to the kaiser's taunt
that the people would not support the
war.
The success of the second Liberty
Loan—the mobilizing of the colossal
sum—is not all. It has aroused those
who were indifferent or lukewarm. It
has stimulated patriotism. It has fix
ed more firmly in the mind and heart
of all the people the resolution to see
They let you know
you are smoking—
they “SATISFY”!

the war through. It has served to
prepare the people for self-denial and
sacrifice. It has strengthened the
determination of the people to do any
thing and everything the nation asks
them to do to help win the war.
The dispatch from New York in the
(Safeway yesterday regarding a reso
lution parsed by the American De
fense Society asking the President to
eall an extra session of Congress im
mediately to declare war upon Aus
tria. is most absurh. Congress will
meet next month and there is no
need of hastening matters of this
kind and a great and unnecessary ex
pense. The .American Defense Socie
ty should re.Nolve about something
else or quit.
It would not look well in print to
publish some of the expression* navi
gator* have of Cook Inlet and the al
leged harbor of Anchorage. Suffice
to say that the navigators have the
same conclusion as the majority ot
people, that a harbor at Anchorage,
open the year round, can never be a
possibility without the spending of
hundreds of thousands ot dollars,
money thrown away.
German Imperial Chancellor von
Hertling will have hi* little say before
a special session ot the Reichstag
sometime this week, according to an
unofficial dispatch from Berlin. Will
it be the same kaiseristic sponge giv
en by Bethman-Hollweg and Michael
i> or will it amount to something?
From the social forecast made in
last Saturdays Gateway, there will
be something doing for all and we
must remember that if we are at war,
all work and no play is likely to make
one stupid and stulify the blood of
pleasure.
