SEWARD, ALASKA. Tl'ESDAY. DECEMBER 12, 1916
Is the government here in Seward about to place in
the hands id people the means fin* committing ciime, and
will it then punish the criminals?
This is the question arising from the sale of liquor
|)V t|u> government. While a man who gets drunk may
md be morally a criminal he is technically a criminal in
the eyes of the law. Or. perhaps, intoxication is better
described as a misdemeanor, but for the purpose of the
argument one word is as good as another, ltie teal laci
is that government officials will sell to a man a commodity
which he may only use in certain quantities or he subject
to punishment by the vendors ot the stuff. What would
wo think of a butcher w ho sold a man meat and thieaten
od to hit him w ith a club if he ate too much of it? W hat
a logical position for a great government!
Anyhow, local connoisseurs or bon vivants 01 w hat
over they call them describe the government stock by the
nleasabt word “rotten”; Guaranteed to bring its man
4
down at the first shot.
The government is now about to take the place of the
denizens of a certain district where doping liquor is sold
and the victim is fleeced, lhe only difference is a ques
tion of sex. Gan it really be possible that those represent
ing l'ncle Sam are about to prostitute him?
Whatever way one’s sympathies lie in this awful war
the feats of Gaptain Koenig and his crew compel admira
tion and wonder. \\ hen the world has forgotten its pre
judices and the story of the world conflict comes to be
written the world will recognize the amazing accomplish
ment of the Deutschland. Not since Homer nor since the
beginning of time has such an extraordinary occurrence
taken place. We are all privileged to be members of the
audience watching such events on the world’s stage.
