FORGET THE WEATHER!
Never mind the weather! If you have not yet gone
to the poll and voted dq so at once. You may say you are
not interested in politics, it’s all the bunk, etc., but you
are wrong. It is your duty as an American citizen to vote
and to use your own judgment in deciding who you want
to vote for.
What The Gateway is interested in now is for Seward
to cast the biggest number of votes in her history. As
was stated yesterday regardless of your political views,
automobiles^ have been placed at your service today, free
of charge, in an effort to get out the vote. Just phone
Ogle's garage, state the time and address and a car will
be there to convey you to the city hall and back home
again.
The poll closes at 7 o’clock this evening.
DO YOUR DUTY!
STORMS!
Astronomers have been busy studying several large
sunspots which covered an area of about 100,000 square
miles on the surface of the sun. It has been suggested
that there may be a connection between sunspots and dis
turbances on earth, such as the violent storms which
have been sweeping over the land.
Storms, wind and rain storms, such as has been visit
ing us locally for the last few days, bring these thoughts
to our mind. It appears there is no direct connection; the
answer to such a proposition is wholly conjectural, but at
the same time it has long been noted that sunspots have
marked electrical and magnetic effects upon the earth.
HUSBANDS ACTIVE
Women of Custrin, Belgium are justly indignant be
cause of an invasion of their right to talk. Some busybody
has dug up an old law of the middle ages which enables
husbands to have their wives sent to jail for gossiping. A
press dispatch indicates that a good many husbands are
getting busy on the strength of the old statute.
THE JAPANESE QUESTION
Again we hear reports that jingoes in Japan are try
ing to start a war with the United States. How much
does Japan owe us?
Speaking of the rain a mining operator from Fair
banks who arrived in Seward last Saturday said, “If it
rianed like this in the Interior districts we would never
have to build any ditches.”
Aimee certainly is having an unusually hard time
fighting the devil.
