SENATOR DIMOND AND BROWN BEARS
In taking the position that a choice must be made
between settlers and brown bears in Alaska, and for that
reason the bear should go, Senator Dimond has voiced an
opinion held by every resident of the Territory but those
who periodically profit by serving big game hunters.
It would have been interesting to observe what would
have happened in the United States West had the desire
of the big game hunter taken a slant to wolves instead
of bear trophies.
It has been the history of the world that dangerous
animals had to go before the advance of civilization, espe
cially the advance guard of progress—the pioneer.
The advocate of protection for predatory and dan
gerous animals in Alaska would appear to lean to the
opinion that the purchase of the Territory was for the
purpose of creating a great game preserve for the amuse
ment of the man of leisure.
No one has any quarrel with the big game hunter.
Rather he is welcomed, but it should not be on the same
plane as the blacks of Africa, who being denied fire
arms, must await the coming of a nobleman with his
safari to enjoy a supply of fresh meat.
WELCOME TO OUR CITY
It is always cause for pleasure when Col. Otto F.
Ohlson, General Manager of the Alaska Railroad, drops
into the city on one of his many periodical visits, such as
today. Long ago the keys to the city were turned over
to him; as one business man stated “The Colonel. can
have the shirt off my back anytime.” This, as an illus
tration of the general feeling expressed for him by the
citizens of Seward.
Build up a town in the way it should go and when
it gets to be a city it will not depart from it.

SURPASSED FORMER COM
BINED ATTENDANCE
UNDATED, April 17, (/P)—The
Major League baseball season got
an even break on opening day,
insofar as weather conditions are
concerned, when four games
were played in the middle-West.
The most unfavorable condi
tions broke in the entire eastern
section and half of the program i
was played out in rain and cold j
weather.
The records show the New i
York postponement was the first j
washout since 1909 when Brook- j
lyn was kept starting its games
with the Giants at the Polo
grounds.
The postponements were the
first in either league since Saint
Louis experienced a streak of bad 1
weather in 1927 when it had its i
first three games, at the opening
of the race, at Detroit. s
Chicago ■ put on a big show and j'
50,000 people, a record crowd |
that packed Wrigley Field; the
turnout surpassed the combined
attendance of any other three
games played* The four-game to
tal was 94,607 as compared to
121,517 at the opening <*games
last year.
