DKBAITHKRY? NO.
The Editor of the Cateway has been
tak»*n to task for continually asking
why Seward is not going to have a
Mid-winter Carnival, as suggested and
given wide publicity about two months
ago. Tut the Editor strongly disa
gtecs with his critic, and here is the
why:
The ciilic stated that the giving of
the carnival from Christmas to New
Years, would mean one of the great
est debauches that evei occurred any
where. The critic stated that it would
be the final days of the Iipuor traffic
in Alaska; that drinking would bo*
paramount and the young and old of
Seward, the high, middle and low
classes would participate in one grand
drinking bout.
The Editor of the Catewa) positive
ly disagrees with tin* critic. The
Editor believes that two thirds of the
citizens of Seward, two thirds of
those who would come to Seward
during the carnival, are men and
women. Seward has no gilded drink
ing cafes, where the young may be
lured to ruin; Seward has no one
among the younger generation who
would can* to make disgraceful spec
tacles of themselves; Seward has an
even balanced citizenship and respec
tability offsets the degenerate one
hundred to one.
But, pei hap." it is just as well that
no carnival is held. It would certain
ly cost money to promote, money
would be spent liberally and perhap>
in judicially and right now i." the time
to conserve finances as well as any
other commodity of the realm. Ked
Cross work will demand extra money,
if any one has a surplus, and there
can be no worthier cause than this to
assist. There are many other thing."
that can perhaps be better benefited
by a right spending of money than a
carnival, but the Editor disagrees
with his critic just as strongly as
possible .regarding why no carnival
should be held.
THE WAR AFTER THE WAU
One German writer who ha." ob
served things in the Orient has the
candor and good sense to set them
down as they really are, and one
Berlin newspaper has the courage to
print them. Captain von Salzman,
military critic and Far East expert
of the Vossische Zeitung, says among
other things that Germany must
count on Japan to enter the Paris
economic agreement and to partici
pate in an ant.-German business war
after the war.
Translated into plain speech, the
_ • __
They do the one
thing you hare al
ways wished a
cigarette would do;
they satisfy and
yet they’re MILD.
Pa is agreement is an international
boycott by the entente allies against
ad German products—a boycott es
tablished b\ the several governments,
to become rrt'ective when peace shall
have been declared. The United
States is not a party to the Pans
atrieement. which was made before
c entered the war. and it will not
become a party; the president so de
flated in his reply to the pope’s peace
Nevertheless, a very large percent
imps 1)0 per cent of them—will apply
a trade boycott. They will do indi
vidually what they cannot do na
tionally: they will not buy Get man
wares for many years -probably not
itt this generation.
I'he resolution to boycott Germany
was formed in many minds the day
of the Lusitania massacre. Since
that day the resolution has been
strengthened by every new act ot
frightfulncss. Germany destroyed
what little neutral feeling there re
mained when she challenged us to
war. If anything was lacking to
complete the severing of all friend
ship, the exposure of the conspiracy
with Mexico and Japan furnished it.
To imagine that it is possible to re
store our old relations during the life
of Americans now engaged in this
war is vain.

poost your town. Pick your line and
put it through, and show the com
munity that you have something in
you worth the praise of every man
within your gaze. Moral and intellec
tual wars are waged, and from differ

in the end when you are through they
all will say, “What did he do?"
