A Katalia lady writes to suggest that the newspapers
ought to remind the steamship companies that excursion
rates should be ollered to Alaskans to visit other pails ot
their own territory. The writer of the letter sa\s that
the companies make all kinds ot rates to “lure tourists up
liere—but for the Alaskan, who is really interested in the
country, there is absolutely nothing doing in that line.
This is surely a good suggestion and one that ought to
be taken up by everyone, i he steamship companies would
lose nothing and might drum up quite a home tourist
trade.
Now, steamship people, you are hereby requested to
look into this, and it will not he the last time the request
will be made, it is really surprising that such excursion
rates have not been ollered before. Just think what a lot
of pleasure Alaskans could find in tin ir own territory ii
the cost were only lower.
This day stands as the anniversary of an occurrence
which has had a strong influence on social and political
conditions for centuries in the Knglish speaking world. It
is the anniversary of the Battle of the Boyne which was
fought between the Catholic forces of James 11. and the
Protestant forces of William of Orange in Ireland, and
which has ever since caused a most unreasonable bigotry.
This year the results of the battle of the Boyne are
brought to mind by the recent rebellion in Dublin, in which
both Protestants and Catholics wen1 leaders. Casement
and Countess Markievicz are Protestants, and Pearce and
Plunket and others were Catholics, and all were seen
fighting together against British domination. A letter re
ceived in last evening's mail direct from Dublin states
that Home Rule is to he immediately established in all of ,
Ireland except in six counties. Those six counties have a
majority of Protestants and in the rest the majority are
Catholics. Because the six counties are Protestants they
refuse to come under the government of the Catholic
counties, and thus is seen again the effect of the Battle of
the Boyne that took place in the 17th century. It is funny ,
that the benighted bigotry of James or William, a weak
ling and a gross thickhead, should influence generations.
Bigotry ought to be made a sufficient cause for an exami
nation for insanity, for the person who thinks the other
fellow deserves punishment for believing in his own way
of serving God ought to have a guardian.

The Beautiful Suburb i
Of Seward
WOODROW is located 6% miles from Seward.
The Govt. Railroad runs through this beautiful tract.
Woodrow lies near Bear Lake the famous fishing
ground of Seward.
Woodrow may be said to be in the warm belt as the
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
i 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 you in the best offer for a suber
ban home ever made in Seward.

IN SAYING DAYL1GHI
^Special to Gateway by United Press;
LONDON. July 0.-About the only j
dijection to the recently adopted Day-'
ight Saving scheme now being agi
,ated in America was that it was
mule in Germany. Hut England isn’t
no touchy on that point as she used to
>e. She has learned lots of things
Torn Germany in the last two years.
Why, they even make Frankfurter
musages right here in London these
lays, and serve them with Teutonic
Ay ie potato salad and sauer-kraut.
Germany began robbing darkness in
favor of daylight on May 1, by setting
.ill the clocks in the Empire ahead an
lour. Great Hiitain followed by do
ng the same thing. On October 1 the
•locks will he turned hack again.
There is a yearly gain of K>4 hours
>i’ useful daylight, equivalent to IT
working days of i> hours each.
Gas bills are much lower, both in
[he home and in the factory. The
total yearly saving in this item alone
is estimated at $12,500,000.
Kail way eompani.es will save about
$500,000 a year in cost of lighting,
;md will benefit by increased passen
ger traffic.
A longer period of leisure before
sun et is afforded the women and gii*
workers.
Tired business men are aide to play
golf an hour longer in the evening.
Eyesight especially will benefit,
daylight being better than artificial
light,
The scheme was introduced by hav
ing every public clock, on churches,
town-halls, post offices, railway-sta
tions, etc., set forward on midnight
to one o’clock.
The change makes the difference
between clock-time in London and
New York six hours, instead of five
as at present.
AMERICAN LIFE RAFT
SAVED MEN ON SHIP
KITCHENER WENT DOWN ON
(Special to Gateway by United Press)
LONDON, June 25.—try Mail—It
was an American life raft which sav
ed the twelve men of the Cruiser
Hampshire on which Lord Kitchener
met his fate near the Orkneys re
cently.
The twelve survivors reached the
coast clinging to the big cork-canvas
device which resembles a sausage
shaped buoy though fifty times larg
er. The furious storm raging off the
rock-bound coast smashed the four
boats seen to leave the war vessel a!
most as soon as they put oil'. One of
these, according to advices from Kirk
wall, contained Lord Kitchener and
his statf.
Before the war the British admir
alty purchased great quantities of the
newly invented American life rafts j
and fitted them to the superstructure'
of practically every British warship.
During the long lull which preceded
the great naval battle olf Jutland, the
British sailors on calm days used the|
rafts for racing. Picked crews from j
a dozen ships launched the rafts once
a week and paddled over a given dis
tance.
The life rafts are unsinknble and
alomst indestructible and are extre
mely buoyant. These facts explain
why any of the Hampshire’s comple
ment lived to tell the tale.
