ihc strike of the munitions worker® on the Clyde bring backs to mind
once more the fact that gradually the laboring people of the world are com
ing to feel a less intense patriotism. The tenets of many extreme branches
of the labor world today are almost positively and openly opposed to the senti
ment known as "love of country." Socialism, of course, tends to the oblitera

a o’ k *r iia\t a.- so :• d. t »t the cap.ta t- arc reaping
by the manufacture of war supplies while they refuse to let the wage earners
secure any additional advantage, but whether it is right or not the whole
story of strikes while the motherland is fighting for life impresses the mind
most unfavorably. It makes one feel that the world is fast hastening to a
gross materialism from the pleasant and elevating romance of the past, and
vo? can anyone say that while the vast majority of the people of the world
arc struggling for a mere existence they should continue to accept theit sup
pression and their poverty for a country which neglects their physical needs?
Kach class would answer that question in a polarly opposite manner.

hears another pronounce them according to the English qualities ot the et
ters in the names it is often put down to ignorance, lids is not right, though,
People of one language are not supposed to pronounce names as they are
pronounced in their own language. It would be impossible to do so in all cases
and the only success that would be possible would be to pronounce a moiety
of foreign names a.> they are pronounced in their own countries. I he chances
are that the word Caesar was pronounced by the Romans in a different way
altogether We know that the French did not pronounce the name o*
Napoleon as we pronounced it. or even as the people of his native t orsiea pro
pounced it. Taking another French example we know that the name of
Marshal McMahon, president of France, was pronounced McMahon# by his
compatriots so, why should we bother’ about calling \ ida something that
looks entirely dilTerent? Besides “\ ilia.1 looks so appropriate, may he be

Pd. Adv.
ANNOUNCEMENT.
I In announcing my candidacy for
councilman at the coming election, 1
want the voters and taxpayers to
know just how I stand on matters per- j
taining to the welfare of Seward,
j 1 believe the standard of our public
schools should be equal to any in Al
aska.
1 believe in public improvements on
a sane and business like plan. I do |
not believe in squandering monies. I'
believe in conducting the business of
the city on the same conservative
plan in which business men conduct
their private affairs. Am opposed to
any Civic improvement plan, involv
ing the expenditure of half million
dollars. Those conditions might exist
forty years hence, but we are not
ready yet nor is any city in Alaska.
1 believe in bringing the assessed
valuation of Seward down to where
it justly belongs. I believe in a tax
levy sufficient to conduct the affaifs of
the town for the ensuing year—our,
assessed valuation is too high.
1 believe in maintaining an up-to
dute Fire Department and paying the
volunteers sufficiently to awaken a
new and greater interest in the de
partment. Their efforts have not been
fully appreciated.
Water For Fire Protection.
If the Council is aware of insuffici
ent water for fire protection it is up
to them to arrange for it, and if ;
necessary, install an auxiliary salt
water pumping station, an emergency
station. I believe that all Federal!
property enjoying the protection of
the police and fire departments
should bear their 6hare of the burden
and up keep of these departments,
and with the proper co-operation with
the Federal Commission this may be
obtained.
I believe in employing the oldtimers
on all city work so far as is consist
ent, and paying not less than 50 cents
per hour therefor.
If the above platform appeals to
you, I ask your vote.
Respectfully,
Pd. adv. W. M. SAUERS.
