Seward, Alaska, Wednesday, August 2, 1916.
The “safest and sanest” proposal that has ever been
made for Seward with the exception of the government
railroad is the establishment of a smelter.
A smelter is needed on the coast of Alaska. Before
manv vears there will he smelters in several places on the
Alaska coast. For something like fifteen years, as well
as the memory can go back, there has been talk of a smelt
er but the task of developing words into some concrete ac
tion has not been attempted until just now.
When one speaks of a quarter of a million dollars it
looks rather big, and it would be quite a sum of money to
most of us individually, perhaps, but by a few thousand
people together that quarter of a million could soon be ac
eumlated, as has been pointed out.
There is every reason why the government of the
United States should aid in the establishment of this
smelter. The government railroad could have no better
customer than the man who ships ore from the interioi
to a smelter on the coast, and the vast interior country has
billions and billions of tons of ore that have lain there for
ages and will lie there for ages and ages to come unless
there is some way provided for operating it.
Perhaps, the people who are building the railroad do
not really know just what sort of a mineral land Alaska
is. To know something about Alaska and its minerals it
is necessary to dig around its trails and its road houses
and its little remote settlements. You must have sat
around the old stoves in the roadhouses and listened to the
talk of quartz and watched the countless prospectors
showing their “specimens” to get an idea, and you must
have done this for years to get the real idea of the vastness
of the mineralized belts of the territory. It is fine to hear
newcomers arrive and talk of the great mineral resources
even when vou know that thev have onlv barely touched
the hem of the garment of Alaska. It is fine to listen to
their enthusiastic speeches and to know that they have
l>een impressed by their visits to coast places, but it is
much finer to contemplate the fact that, enthusiastic as
they are, they yet have no real conception of the immen
sitv of the territory that carries mineral resources in al
most every creek and hill.
The day will come when Alaskans will read with
wonder of the fact that there was a time when it was
necessary even to hold a meeting for the purpose of estab
lishing a smelter. __

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., July 24.—
Officials of the Ninth District Federal
Reserve bank here today announced
that they have learned it pays to ad
vertise. Placing bonds of the United
States in the hands of individual in
vestors in denominations as low as
$100 has been accomplished through
newspaper advertising.
“Such a step is in keeping with the
I best counsel of European nations,”
Chairman John H. Rich of the Feder
al reserve bank said today. “The
people must be led to think that this
is their government, and that they
have an interest in it. Their holding
government bonds will help them.
They will realize they have loaned a
friend some money and have his
note."

WASHINGTON, July 24.—Ameri
can motion-pictures films are rapidly
crowding out domestic films in Great
Britain, according to a report from
consular sources available here today.
“Picture theatres in Bristol,” says
the report, “use a g refit many more
American films than any other kind,
and their hold on the public favor
seems to be constantly growing.”
The report listed a number of
Pacific Coast products which are being
shipped in quantity to England by
way of the Panama Canal. Among
these were canned salmon, evaporated
fruits, California redwood and barley.
As “vegetables and fruits, canned
dried, bottled and preserved” are on
the list of prohibited imports.
BEES IN WAR
(Special to Gateway by United Press'
LONDON, July 26.—How thi
German colonial forces in East Africa
enlisted bees to light the Britsh is
told in an acocunt arrived here today
from Natal.
The natives in East Africa make
beehives of hollow logs which they
place in the trees. The Germans
gathered large quantities of these
hives and attached them upright to a
device which raised a white Hag when
anything came in contact with it.
A party of Britishers had the mis
fortune to stumble over the wire and
dozens of beehives came crashing to
the ground simultaneously with the
appearance of the white flag. Angry
lighting-mad bees and German ma
chine gun bullets were soon working
together against the British. The ac
count from Natal is without further
detail except to say that the British
had a hot time.
