SEWARD, ALASKA. TUESDAY, AUGUST 2?), 1»H>.
Intoxication has been quite a bit in the public mind ot
Seward recently. One may say that it has been one of the
attractions. At least it has given us something to talk
about and has to some extent permeated the social atmo
sphere of Seward all the way from the lecture platform to
the police and federal courts. For this reason, now that
the railroad and the war are losing their power to absorb
all the thoughts, a slight philosophical dissertation on in- j
ebriation might be of interest to those who have never
given much time to the subject.
Jags are the most remarkable things. I hey some
times come like a thief in the night when you least expect
them, and this will probably entice the pious mind to draw
the obvious parallel suggested by the bible between satan
and those nocturnal thieves and. consequently, between
Satan and sots.
No one should ever drink to excess. That goes with
out saying. The man who does suffers more even than the
shocked people who are compelled to be his observers. A
woman should not only not drink to excess but she should
not drink at all. The very act of taking a drink seems to
be something foreign to a woman of refinement and a
woman who drinks a little too much appears unsexed.
There are various sorts of drinkers. There are as
manv different kinds of drinkers as there are human pro
*
fessions. One man can drink all day and become so ac
customed to the effects that he takes it as naturally as a
rabbit eats clover. Another can stand only a certain
amount. Another goes out deliberately to celebrate as a
sort of change and vacation from the ordinary routine of
life. Another tries to kill an irritation by strong drink
as a child will lie on the floor and kick or a woman will bite
her nails. Disappointment in securing something that one
has set his heart on tempts to the oblivion which is most
quickly obtained by cocktails and cocktails supply after
wards a thirst which asks no excuse, which wants no ex
cuse and which wouldn't take an excuse if it could get one.
One man can celebrate and afterwards attend to ins
business. Another man can drink and attend to his busi
ness at one and the same time but there is another who
must absolutelv choose between business and “booze.”
%
But the two great opposing camps on this question
are made up of the men who drink some and the men v. iio
drink nothing. Very often the apparent saintlyness of
the latter kind is merely begotten of a physical dislike for
strong drink or for spending money, and whichever the
reason is they are fortunate, especially in a small town
where celebrating is almost equal to committing a burg- '
larv and secures almost as much unfavorable notoriety for (
the celebrant.
But. it just comes to mind that the space is not suf
ficient to dilate on this “absorbing” topic as it deserves
and it must be cut short, although it would not be proper
to conclude without the statement that it is much better!
for various reasons not to drink at all. Nor is it proper,
however, that one person should try to govern the actions

Buy a Home in Woodrow
The Beautiful Suburb
Of Seward
WOODROW is located 6% miles from Seward.
The Govt. Railroad runs through this beautiful tract.
Woodrow lies near Bear Lake the famous lishing
ground of Seward.
Woodrow may be said to be in the warm belt as (he
hills are so situated as to shelter this tract from the winter
winds.
Woodrow is situated just this side of the Bungalow
and plotted on the most desirable portion of the Johnson
Homestead.
A tract in Woodrow is equivalent to more than 12 lots
in Seward.
The price is so low that no one can complain.
You can buy a tract of about one third the size of a
block in Seward for $125. — Some fractional tracts are
selling as low as $25—$50 and $75.
The title is clear—A warranty deed, first handed.
Woodrow is plotted in tracts situated each on a street
and corner on an alley. Each plot is easy to access.
Woodrow is a beautifully wooded tract and a veri
table park.
ROMIG & ROMIG are handling this property and
will be pleased to interest ypu in the best offer for a suber
ban home ever made in Seward.

of another on this or any other matter of personal con
duct. Men should be strong enough to choose for the o
selves whether they should drink or how much they should
drink. As a matter of fact, if universal prohibition came
tomorrow the chances are that a century from now hu
man curiosity would make men indulge once again if only
to see what a jag was like.
