“GREAT OAKS FROM LITTLE ACORNS GROW”
Among the “little acorns” which are sprouting into,
what promises to become a sturdy oak of industry is the
local cannery. This institution is now providing work
for about 30 men and is confining its pack exclusively to
reds, the best selling fish on the market.
It is such industries as this, starting unostentatiously
and gradually growing and expanding', which stand as a
bulwark behind the community and give values to its
property and business.
In point of importance, the little industry or a collec
tion of them exercise a greater influence for good than
some gigantic enterprise, subject to the shifts of varying
fortune.
There are other resources near Seward capable of
providing employment for a number of men. Once these
are under way they will, collectively, give a market stimi- j
lus to the town.
TEMPORIZING WITH CRIMINALS
The Lindbergh kidnaping case should at last bring
forcibly to mind that temporizing with the criminal is
not the correct method for meeting the situation. Dr. J.
F. Condon, “Jafsie,” who has wasted much maudlin sen
timent on the wolves of society, has received a severe
blow to his supposition that there was “honor among
thieves.” His efforts to rehabilitate criminals was repaid
with the double-cross. Unlike the racketeer, he cannot
repay in kind or take reprisals with a weapon, and must
swallow his chagrin like the remainder of the sob-sis
ters and maudlin busy-bodies who have done so much to
discourage honest policemen and hinder or thwart justice.
It is about time the word “frame” was deleted from
the English language and replaced by that of “justice.’’
Any man who has had experience with these enemies
of society knows that the criminal at heart has naught
but contempt for those who labor in his behalf. He does
not wish to be the recipient of this maudling sentiment.
It is too much like asking him to metamorphose Ms own
vicious nature and take on the atmosphere of his prey,
whom he designates as “boobs.”
History is replete with records of attempts to mold
humanity into a brotherhood where each man volitionally
treats his fellow fairly. This was sought with the birth of
Christianity. Nineteen hundred and thirty-two years has
served to prove that there are those who must be intimi
dated by fear, mental or physical. America was created
as a haven for those desirous of rising from their pre
vious thralldom on their own initiative. If the theory of
volitional adherence to law and order cannot be vindi
cated during the period of 1932 years, it appears time to
revert to those systems which serve to deter or elimi
nate the eUemy of organized society.
In war surrender is accepted only with the laying
down of arms. We have no evidence that this is under
consideration by the arch-criminal. Since it is war led by
the enimies of society, no reprisal, however apparently
brutal, is too severe a weapon to bring into action.

FOXES SETHEB FORM
Capt. Peter Sather, head of the
Nuka Bay Transportation Com
pany, brought his small yacht, the
Nuka, into port Sunday afternoon
and intended to remain in port
until this afternoon.
He reports that the Sather &
Sather Fox Island is again being
bothered by a black bear, who not
only eats up the feed that is put
out for the foxes, but is creating
much fear among the foxes them
selves by his presence. Captain
Sather says he has gone “gunning
for the animal” on a couple of oc
casions but he has never been able
to get close enough to see the color
of the bruin’s eyes.
This is the third bear which has
come to the island. Last year a
bear swam to the island from the
nearby mainland and created con
siderable havoc until he was forced
to yield when felled by a shot fired
by Mrs. Sather.
For a bi'Af spell Sunday the
Schooner Zapora, chartered for the
International Fisheries investiga
tions, was in port.
The steamer Alice, of the Alaska
Railroad, departed upstream from
Hot Springs at 8 p. m. Saturday.
