SEWARD. VI.ASK \. TCKSDVY, SEPTEMBER 7. 1915.
The coming of Labor Pay reminds us that the world is beginning to
recognize the greatness, the vastness, the dignity and the power of the world
of Labor. The most brilliant minds of the universe no longer hold them
selves aloof from the study of the conditions which are creating the ominous
rumblings in the hitherto invisible strata ot what wo have been pleased to
call the lower levels of society. Nothing now but mental density or the
snobbery born of it could induce us to refuse to acknowledge the claims of
the vast armies of brothers who. emancipated from the ignorance forced on
them, are beginning to assert,their rights.
The man standing socially above physical labor who cannot anti will not
see that new relations are being created between the extremes of the in
dustrial and social world is either hopelessly blind or is closing his eyes,
’i he question of Labor anti Capital surmounts in importance even the sub
ject of the great war which is now devastating Europe. From a human point
of view it is supreme. It concerns the whole future of human relations and
not only does it affect the material life but it is bound to exercise a tre
mendous influence on the ethical and mental.
In this respect some divisions of the labor world make their great mis
take. To material advancement they are willing and ready to subordinate
moral dictates, and anarchy and its twin brother, sabotage, are the result.
Thc\ strive bv physical efforts to force an unnatural climax while their
v iser colleagues depend on moral suasion and lawful warfare to bring about
the amelioration of their condition.
The labor flock should not be judged by its blackest sheep as the capital
ist class should not be judged by its most selfish members. Just because
workingmen can become crimitia s in futheranco of their ends, is no teason
why all the rest of the world should place themselves on contemptuous ped
estals. Men like Karl Marx, before whose dominating intellect all of us are
but mental pigmies, have recognized the greatness ol labor and ha\e foi
s-een the vast upheave! which must come unless the world learns and comes to
a realization of the potent force at its foundation.

AND PORT OR VHAM NEWS.
The cannery crews of both Port
Graham and Seldovia left for Seattle

ing crabs up Katchemak Bay ami
other shell tish. They market their
fish at Anchorage and before long
expect to extend their shipments to
other coast towns. The crabs caught
here are very tine, and this new in

profitable one.

visitor for a week or more. He ar
rived from up the Inlet,

Charles J. Keon, of Marshall City,
in a letter to Russ Downing, gives the
first intimation so far received of a
new strike in the Marshall section,
which is pronounced to be genuine in
every way. According to Keon, the ■
new paystreak is‘located about ten,
miles from Marshall City townsite, on
what is known as Willow Creek. The ,
pay so far developed runs four claims,,
and consists of an average of seven
feet of dirt running about 12 cents j
per pan, and is covered with an aver- j
age burden of muck sixteen feet in
thickness. The ground is described as
suitable for both winter and summer
operations, as there is an abundante
of water. The letter also states that
the ground is all staked. (Nome j
