SO THIS IS PARIS!!!!
We sat in retrospection one night recently while a
friend discoursed on the subject of Alaska, its needs and
its future. He was mighty pessemistic about it too. He
viewed the salmon situation as it is really understood by
Alaskans who face the problem fairly and with the thot
of the future and he said “The salmon is gone.” He talk
ed halibut and said “I did not think that the International
Commission would be so frank in its admissions that it
is but a matter of a few years when we will have no hal
ibut in Alaska.” Then he went mining and said: “The old
miner and prospector used to get enough of a grub stake
from the fisheries that with a little help from storekeep
ers he could go into the hills and prospect for the fithy
lucre.” That dav is gone and any mining development we
have in this end of Alaska will be mostly happenstance.”
He saw no future. Nor do we.

Holv pink-toed mackerel!!! It must have been a
tonph night in Petersburg. The seas must have rolled
with dolorous rumble. Outside in the gathering; gloom
the ravens must have croaked in saddest svmnhonv. Yes
it must, hawp been n o-ond nio-ht for a murder, and urn
m''wtJV"a.blv murder was done.
Is it possible for a newspaperman to so forget his
copy as to admit that he is licked? Is it all a cloud in that
silver linina’ down Petersburg' wav. ^s it possible that two
o-' i can get together and agree there is “no future!”
even in fishing or mining i-i this wonderful countrv?
Well now. the least said about it the better. Maybe
the hove bo*i bad a had r ivht. the niodit before and were
not hitting on all six. In matters like this its well to be
charitable and forgiving, for who knows.—some day
some one will consider us dead enough to be buried and
will walk slow behind with a lilv and a doleful chant.

THE STRONG MELODRAMA
A true story of one phase of life. The dynamic tale of a
dance hall girl who has lived too close to the fire.
Not a vulgar sensational story but a dark page from the
book of life spread before you in a masterful and most
fascinating way. Who gets the most from life—the woman
who is singed or the woman who has never been near
the flame
DEEP — VIVID — FASCINATING
A play every matured mind should see. A story altogether
different and finer than the usual ones dealing with
this subject
