THE GOLDEN HOARDS
The Treasury has eased off somewhat in its demands
regarding the use of gold. It appears that there is con
siderable doubts as to the constitutionality of the require
ment that private stocks of that metal be turned in
through the banks, and for the time being the matter
will be permitted to rest. . . ,
The small man parted with his $5 gold piece pi ompt
jv but the big man took his time. The result is that the
mass of gold will remain in the hands that have held it
heretofore. . . T. . ,
The incident is instructive in several ways. It teach
es that persons of large affairs consult their own wel
fare first and let the count 17 go hang. It reminds us,
also, no time was lost in raising questions of legality.
UNUSUAL PUNISHMENT
The action of those 100 farmers, when they carried
off an offending magistrate, greased his face, and took
off his trousers, suggests that there are local diseases in
which original and local remedies are indicated, and it
is not well for the outsider to be too strong in his con
demnation.
Upon the other hand, the removal of the jurist’s
breaches did not help matters, and may come under the
head of cruel and unusual punishments, which are for
bidden by the Constitution. Speaking of the handling of
clothing as a symbol of conduct, maybe it would have
been well if the farmers had been admonished by a cool
er head to keep their pants on.
THAT BIG PACIFIC HOLE
Out in the Pacific Ocean, a Coast and Geodetic Sur
vey vessel has found a place about 3b,000 feet deep. Per
haps the incident is an omen that the bottom has been
reached, in another sense, on land.
The Pacific Ocean hole is of some depth, we admit.
Mount McKinley, the highest mountain on the North
American continent, could be dropped into it, to serve as
a foundation for a structure 40 times as high as Sew
ard’s Arcade Building, and 16 radio station aerials,
placed end to end, and the skipper of the SS Aleutian,
the largest Alaska passenger liner, could steer a course
over the spot without noticing that anything had been
done. Some hole!
While the United States is trying to figure out some
system whereby its railroads will be kept solvent and
operating, the Japs and Chinese are busy blowing rail
roads to pieces. When the Orientals have tired of the
add to his own burdens will be given the opportunity to
add to his own burdens by supplying the capitla neces
sary to put the Manchurian railway again in running
order.
A bee in the breeks is sometimes as effective as a
herd of elephants charging from the front. A little com
petition by the MS Discoverer has resulted in the Alaska
Railroad downing rates on gas 30 per cent.

NUMEROUS CRUSES
NOTED HAD THE
SS STIRS ON Mil
Things do not look the same on
the SS Starr, Capt. Arthur Ryn
ing, San Juan Fishing & Pack
ing Company, nor are they the
same as when the vessel left for
Seattle a few short weeks ago.
A number of changes are noted
on the vessel which returned to
port Sunday and which leaves to
day on its first voyage of the sea
son to the great Bristol bay dis
j trick
| In the first place, the familiar
j face of “Barnacle Bill” Ross, the
! veteran steward, was missed; he
left the ship at Seattle and now
former pantryman Glen Larkin
may be addressed as Steward.
Another member of the crew,
John Olsen, failed to show up
on deck and upon inquiry it was
found that he had been salting
away his pay check for the last
two years, quit the ship at Seattle
and, as far as is known, should be
in Chicago today marking time
while nwaiting the opening of The
Century of Progress.
Henry the Jap, one of the finest
cooks wh oever scorched water,
also through his dunnage bags
over the rail at Seattle and intend
ed to buy a ticket for Japan, en
route to Manchukuo. Barney Ol
sen. former second cook, is now
Chief Cook Olson.
Don Mann is the new waiter,
hot from New York.
Leo For, the second radioman,
returns to Seattle from here.
Quartermaster Mackintosh quit
to become a sheep rancher; to
gether with a new quartermaster,
three new sailors are signed on.
Fireman Milo Lee brought back
a charming bride from Milwaukee,
, near Portland, Ore., who will, for
| the time being, make her home in
Seward. Mrs. Lee was the former
Miss Lois Leonard and, from what
she has thus far seen of the North
land, is very happy.
B'tween decks a cold storage
plant has been installed where,
together with fresh supplies, cold
beer may repose in style.
The ship is loaded to stateroom
doors with freight and also, a large
passenger list. Many additional
| passengers will embark here for
Bristol Bay.
Enroute to Seward Captain Ryn
ing reports touching at Ketchikan
for oil and clearance, and at Saw
mill bay where cannery hands and
supplies were put ashore. It is be
: lieved that an extra trip to Seat
I tie will be made in July.
Among the incoming passengers
| were C. M. Albriet and Rev. Jos.
S C. Harrison, the latter going to
Fairbanks.
The Starr rifle team reports
j the purchase of a new rifle while
i in Seattle and while on the run
! this summer, will get in a lot of
j practice, for next winter’s tourn
! aments.
j Arrivals bring the cheering and
optimistic news that things are
looking up around Seattle and oth
er coastal cities, with more men
finding jobs every day.

To the Editor of the Gateway:
For the past three years Moose
Pass has been highly honored in
having in their midst a charm
ing and accomplished young lady
in the person of Miss Anne Chis
holm, school teacher by profession,
whose remarkable work should not
pass unnoticed.
The modest young lady is one of
those exceptionally talented—and
rare human beings, whose depth
of human understanding is beyond
the power of mere words to ade
quately describe.
Her interest in every pupil is
genuine. Her devotion and un
tiring patience particularly, with
backward youngsters in and out
of school is truly remarkable. Her
radiant personality is stamped in
delibly upon the minds of both
parents and youngsters. She is
deserving of the highest commen
dation.
Her classes are as follows: one
second grade pupil, one third
grade pupils two seventh grade
pupils, and five first year High
School students.
The young lady is indeed a cre
dit to herself, her profession, and
to the community she has served
so admirably.
It is rumored that Miss Chis
holm is contemplating making a
change upon the closing of the pre
sent school term.
To Miss Chisholm, I say: “The
parents of the youngsters to whom
you have devoted your individual
attention the past three years,
deeply appreciate your noble work I
and desire you to remain. When j
the matter is brought to the atten- j
tion of the youngsters, their down- i
cast eyes speak volumes.
“Miss Chisholm, the parents as i
well as the children of Moose Pass, j
love you with the fulness of their!
hearts.
“If you decide to leave them—
Remember—they shall miss you
lots, lots and lots.”
