RECIPROCITY
Hardly a week passes when the newspaper of every
town is not called upon to stress the economic advantage
of home patronage, or some other constructive subject.
In this respect they have never been found wanting in ad
vocating any movement calculated to protect local indus
try and business.
It now comes a time when the newspaper itself has
a right to ask reciprocity in the form of home patronage.
Agents of Outside printing establishments are traveling
the Railroad Zone—they are in Seward today—soliciting
job printing. What slight advantage that may be gained
in the form of cut-rate prices is lost in the curtailment of
local forces employed. These employees support local bus
iness houses more loyally than any other group in the
city, including owners of local establishments, and have
a right to ask that this support be reciprocated.
We are wondering if these itinerant purveyors are
within the law; have they obtained city and territorial
license, and do they pay school tax ?
At last the nation has its revenge. Wall Street is said
to have a mortgage on all of the sheep of the West. Wait
until they hook up with the Sheepsherers, Union and
have to walk back home.
While Seward may seem a bit wild at times, it is no
'■excuse for the ocean liners to slip up on it in the dark.

FINEST BILLIARD HALL IN ALASKA

IL
(By Special Correspondent)
Mr. and Mrs. Earl Ramsey, Ter- j
ritorial teachers at Unalaska, gavej
a very enjoyable patriotic program
by the children of Unalaska, May
13, from which we all learned a
great many incidents relative to
the career of our honored first
President, George Washington.
The program was interspersed
with appropriate songs and recita
tions and concluded with a very
interesting play called “The Lure
of the Sea.’’ The youngsters put
their whole heart into the per
formance, and the stage settings
and well-lighted hall of the Alas
ka Commercial Company did much
to enhance the evening’s enter
tainment.
At the conclusion of the chil
dren’s part, the grown-ups were
given an opportunity to perform,
and proceded to take advantage of
it by dancing until 1 oclock a. m.,
to the accompaniment of the Una
laska Orchestra Club’s best music.
The supply boat SS Lakina ar
rived May 19, bringing several pas
sengers for Unalaska, among
whom were Mr. and Mrs- E. K. Ped
ler, Mr. Fred Shroder, who has re
ceived the contract to construct
the new Office of Indian Affairs
school at Attu; Mrs. F. C. Lentz,
wife of chief of naval radio sta
tion, Dutch Harbor; Mrs. Olson,
wife of the navy yard foreman
now in charge of the construction'
work at Dutch Harbor radio sta
tion, and Mrs. Mary Ross, who has
spent the past 18 months in Cali
fornia in an effort to recover her
health. She now has convalesced
sufficiently to return to her home
and it is hoped she will continue
to improve as the summer ad
vances.
Mr. E. K. Pedler is secretary for
the Alaska Commercial Company
in San Francisco and is spending
his third summer in Unalaska in
the interests of his company. Sev
eral new improvements are con
templated for the store and res
taurant, which will assist materi
ally in giving work to the unem
ployed of the village.
The sailing schooner Beulah,
owned by the Alaska Salmon Com
pany, arrived on the 21st after 35
days en route from San Francis
co. She brought supplies for both i
stores. The Beulah expects to re- i
main here all summer cod fishing,
and hopes to return south at the
end of the season with a capacity
load of some 250 to 300 tons of fish.
Seward Gateway—"The Best In the North"
; A short session of the district
: court was held this morning, Judge
| E- Coke Hill presiding.
A number of forclosures and de
crees were rendered, one of which
was in the matter of the McCord
Alaskan Company, upon petition
of one of the creditors for recon
sideration of claims of the peti
tioning creditors.
A number of depositions having
been heretofore taken, with the
consent of all counsel represent
ing the several parties, the deposi
tions were submitted to the court
to be read during the day and the
case continued until Friday for
further testimony and argument.
