SEW VRD, ALASKA. SATI RDAY. MAY 22. 1013.
Some time ago the indications were that Przemysl would never again
ppear in the war new s. I he fall of that fortress caused more rejoicings
hat an> other event of the war because the rejoicings were not confined to
ii> -ode or nationality on earth with the possible exception of those who christ
ned it. Now it appears once more and every linotype machine in the world
, groaning. Of all the systems invented for pronouncing the name of the
lace none seems to have been satisfactory, lhe Russians, following up their
uccev* with >i. Petersburg and Constantinople, struck in a few extra vowels
ut then result was not unqualifiedly victorious. Some people have told us
u* word is pronounced as a man with a jag pronounces the word “business.”
thers say it should be “Pemeshel,” “Primmysheet” and soforth but it will
robably go down in history as Pretzel alter all.
...
When we speak about the difficulty of securing a market for farm pro
uce in Alaska we should ask ourselves what market did the first settlers
f (he (nited States have. It-will lead us into a train of thought that
light bring enlightenment.
The selection of Vrthur Henderson, the English labor leader, as a mem
er of the new British government shows the direction of the social and politi
al wind in thai nation. The da> of the government of the mass by one
lass has passed away. During the first few months of the war thousands
f mm-conimissioned officers were raised to commissions in the British army
nd a laborite now goes to sit in the council with men whose names appear
u many pages of British hiMorv. London newspapers recently declared
uit the Prince of Wales should go to the front for the sake of appearances
t least. War is a mighty leveller. And it will be found the same in
ermany.
Let it he repeated that it is to be devoutly wished the engineering com
mon will start work on the Alaska Northern this summer. This would not
i* desired so much for the temporary blessing of a passing payroll as for the
t velopment of the mines and homesteads on Kenai peninsula. When winter
»me* and the waters around Anchorage receive their annual ice flows the
laska Northern in running order would be very convenient, and not only for
it* people hut for the railroad construction operations. At least it looks that
av and if the 1 nited States and its government only knew how anxious
it* people of this part of the territory are to see Kenai peninsula opened up
lev would go out of their way to help us.

SEATTLE MAY HOLD THAT
V LA SKA SEMI-CENTENNIAL.
SEATTLE, May 22.—The sugges
tion of Congressman Kahn that Seat
tle should hold a semi-centennial cele
bration of the purchase of Alaska in
1«H7 is meeting with a very favorable
response an the idea will probably be
acted upon. The affair would be
something in the nature of an exposi
ton but first of all Seattle people will
try to secure the expression of opinion
on the matter from the people of Al
aska. The information that San
Francisco is about to take greater
pains to secure some of the Alaska
trade is expected here to put new
life into Seattle’s efforts to hold the
business.
